Remembering Restoran Sin Seng Nam @ Lebuh Pasar Besar

Restoran Sin Seng Nam, nama yang begitu senonim dan menjadi saksi pembangunan dan kemodenanan Kuala Lumpur akhirnya terpaksa tunduk kepada peredaran masa. Selepas hampir 85 tahun beroperasi, akhirnya ia sendiri menjadi sebahagian dari lipatan sejarah Kuala Lumpur. Restoran Sin Seng Nam will serve her last menu tomorrow, 28 February 2013.

Remember visited the restaurant back to August 2010, when I did a sketch of the building and than get a cup of coffee with a toast inside. As printed on The Star, the facade of the building still look similar to what I had captured on the paper...the restaurant's signboard and the yellow painting at the windows.

Farewell and good bye Sin Seng Nam and hope the building will get a new tenant as good as Mr Choong Ah See by maintaining the current facade.
