Fortune Cafe, nestled within Taman Danau Desa Business Centre in Kuala Lumpur, offers a delightful selection of simple Chinese dishes. Run by a family originally from Shenyang in Northeast China, the cafe specializes in the popular Xi’an street snack roujiamo, also known as a "meat in a bun." This version, called Tongguan, features a thousand-layer, crispy and flaky bun that sets it apart from standard bread.
The menu also includes variations of roujiamo, such as the pork and beef options, both of which are packed with savory fillings. The pork version is noted for its sweet juices, while the beef version offers a more pronounced meaty flavor. Guests can also enjoy the homemade sesame cold noodles, which are wide ribbons served with sesame sauce, cucumber, bean sprouts, and chili.
Another standout dish is the Dumplings in Sour Soup, a sour and spicy dumpling soup that elevates the typical boiled dumplings. The dumplings are filled with pork and vegetables, and the dish is finished with a tangy seaweed soup that adds a silky texture. For dessert, the Golden Fried Glutinous Red Bean Cake provides a chewy, not-too-sweet treat that's best enjoyed with a cup of hot tea.
The restaurant is open daily from 10:30 am to 10 pm, and can be found at 11-0-5, Jalan 4/109F, Taman Danau Desa Business Centre, Taman Desa, Kuala Lumpur.
