You can get there by using the middle ring road. If you are coming from Bandar Utama or the Curve, look for the turning to the left that says FRIM. This should be the Jalan Lebuh Selayang Kepong. Go up this road and you there will be until you reach a junction. Turn left into Jalan Taham Bidara(if you turn the other way, its Jalan Selayang Jaya). Your almost there. Go on and you should see a shell gas station to your left. Jin Chwan/Bei Hai is on the same side a few more block up ahead with a little field in front of it and car parts/repair stall on either side. If you miss the FRIM turn off on the middle ring road(like me today)you can still get on to other end of Jalan Lebuh Selayang Kepong carrying on until you reach the batu caves circus. Nearing it, go down the road to Ipoh (Jalan Ipoh) and driving pass the Pasar Borong until you reach a junction with Jalan Lebuh Selayang Kepong on your left . Best that I can do without a map. Hope it helps, Kim.

That "Jalan Taham Bidara" should read "Jalan Taman Bidara". I really should proof read my posts. Anyway the seafood range is as wide as the foodster says. There is even a small wine cellar there.The cool thing is that you buy and pay for the seafood at Jin Chwan and Bei Hai cooks it next door. Unfortunately, I was on a scouting expedition with my light eating folks and didnt have enough stomachs to order a Soon Hock (the smallest tipping the scales at 2.2kg). We ordered a sea grouper. The fish costs us about RM56. We had that with a taufu and the fried kailan. The restaurant bill (plus the fish cooking charge of RM16 )came to about RM57. They said the kitchen was supose to close at 2.30pm but I still saw people walking in at 2.15pm and ordering snow crabs and such. This is a great place to come if you have a huge group of people to take advantage of the fixed cooking charge/seafood costs ratio.

Yup, this place is in the middle of a factory area. It is well worth the find. There are a lot of selections here. Much better than Fresh Unique if you don't mind the travel to Selayang. The mee mamak is quite good in this place. Wierd!
