Are you nostalgia? It must be "kiau keng kau" lah....I remember my grandfather used to bring me there when i was young to jalan jalan and then walk to "teo chew kuay" to have teo-chew porridge - bread with kaya toast very famous in those days.

"Kiau Keng Kau" means "mouth of the gambling den" literally translated from Hokkien. Somewhere near China Street.

Thank you. You are indeed very helpful. We used to live in Cross Street. I'm referring to "赌间口" ("Kiau Keng Kau "/ "Kian Keng Khau ") and now China Street. Thanks again. Cheers !!!
