Acknowledged for their culinary skills and specialty dishes, the Goh family, like their peers from Hainan Island, started the Foh Heong Kopitiam in Kuala Pilah, Negeri Sembilan. Popular in colonial times, the restaurant was favoured and patronised by the British and also catered for the parties and official functions of the Negeri Royal Family. Together with Tunku Kudin, they set up the Sinaran Restaurant Cafe in 1944.
The transition from colonial times to the present has seen a third generation of Gohs in the business. The Hailam Kopitiam, a concept cafe, serves the original Hainanese tastes and flavours that the Foh Heong Kopitiam is noted for and now serves a new generation of Patrons in Kuala Lumpur, Puchong, Petaling Jaya, Shah Alam, Klang, Kajang, Bangi, Malacca and now PUTRA NILAI.
