The Chinatown area in Kuala Lumpur has increasingly become an interesting place, an example of a place where anachronistic places and people mix and mingle in seamless harmony.
Case in point is brand new restaurant Mona Lisa, plonked in the middle of Jalan Sultan. Outside the restaurant, the hubbub of the street is evident, giving way to flower shops, hawker stalls and the old-fashioned eateries so beloved by Malaysians. In fact, directly outside the restaurant is a stall manned by an elderly woman peddling coconut water.
