TBS Food Heritage at LaLaport BBCC honors the culinary legacy of Malaysia's beloved kopitiam culture, continuing the time-honored traditions established by the late Teoh Boon Seng who founded the legendary Lian Thon Restaurant along Kota Road in Taiping, Perak in 1948. Now in its third generation under the passionate stewardship of Jaryl Teoh, this family-run establishment brings authentic local home-style cuisine to the heart of Kuala Lumpur's premier lifestyle destination, preserving traditional recipes and cooking techniques that have been passed down through decades of dedicated service to Malaysia's food-loving community.
The restaurant's heartwarming menu features traditional breakfast items, aromatic kopi bakar roasted using time-tested methods that create the distinctive flavor profiles beloved by kopitiam enthusiasts, and an impressive selection of artisanal sandwiches including beef, cheesy egg, chicken, salmon, and vegan options that cater to diverse dietary preferences while maintaining authentic Malaysian flavors. Each dish reflects the family's commitment to preserving culinary heritage while adapting to contemporary tastes, served by a team of experienced senior citizen employees whose dedication and care embody the gentle, unhurried pace that defines traditional Malaysian hospitality.
Within LaLaport BBCC's Gourmet Street, TBS Food Heritage offers a peaceful respite from the bustling mall environment, inviting diners to slow down and appreciate the simple pleasures of traditional Malaysian comfort food in an atmosphere that celebrates patience, respect, and genuine human connection. The restaurant's location within this premier dining boulevard provides easy access for families, office workers, and cultural enthusiasts seeking authentic flavors that connect them to Malaysia's rich food heritage while enjoying the modern conveniences of world-class mall amenities.
