Thoughts: There are 2 multi-stall chinese kopitiam left in USJ: 
金華茶室 Restoran Jing Hwa (48-G, Jalan USJ 10/1B) (closed)
南京茶餐室 Kedai Kopi Nanking (36, Jalan USJ 10/1) (still open)
K1美食閣 K1 Food Court (25, Jalan USJ 10/1C) (replaced by 冇得頂茶室 Restoran Mou Dek Deng)
USJ10's 金華茶室 Restoran Jing Hwa closed recently, and is now under renovation for another eatery I think called "Restaurant Kaw Kaw"!
"K1美食閣 K1 Food Court" has changed hands a few times, and recently took up 2 shop lots by the new tenant; with a lot more hawker stalls as well as dedicated seating area for the customer. 
星光茶餐室 Restoran Sin Kong (many years ago)
冇得頂茶室 Restoran Mou Dek Deng (during the Covid period)
K1美食閣 K1 Food Court (recently)
Today's breakfast is an rm$7 "檳城白咖喱麵 Penang Curry Mee", with toppings many people would consider bizarre: which are 豬紅 pig’s coagulated blood cubes (like tofu or jelly cubes but maroon in color), and 新鮮血蛤蜊 fresh bloody cockles. Other items common that served with a bowl of Penang Curry Mee are 墨魚片 cuttlefish slices, 蝦 shrimp, and 豆腐卜 tofu puffs; and most of all, also topped with a spoon of 蝦膏 shrimp paste.
According to a web article, the recipe of 檳城白咖喱麵 Penang Curry Mee (probably also called 咖哩叻沙 Curry Laksa), a popular coconut curry soup noodle dish; can be traced to the 早期土生華人烹飪 early Straits Born Chinese/Peranakan cooking, a 融合 fusion of 泰式烹飪 Thai, 馬來烹飪 Malay and 華人烹飪 Chinese recipes where 新鮮香料 fresh spices dominates. 檳城白咖喱麵 Penang Curry Mee, uniquely Penang, was made popular in the 50's, 60's and early 70's by the 廣東人小販 Cantonese food hawkers.
豬紅 Pig blood curd (with a soft and smooth, as well as slightly chewy texture), also known as 血豆腐 "blood tofu" or 米血糕 "blood pudding", is a popular Cantonese delicacy in 香港 Hong Kong, 中國南方 southern China, 台灣 Taiwan, and 越南 Vietnam. It is commonly served with 粉麵 noodles or 粥 congee. Although h Pig's blood curd is rich in 維生素 vitamins and 礦物質 minerals, excessive consumption may cause 鐵中毒 iron poisoning. Not just a Cantonese delicacy, Pig's blood is also made into food by many western countries. For example, in 英國 Britain and 愛爾蘭 Ireland, 血腸 black pudding (blood sausage) is made from pig's blood and a high proportion of 麥片 oatmeal; and, In 瑞典 Sweden and 芬蘭 Finland, pig's blood is used, with milk, flour and molasses, to make 血煎餅 blood pancakes.
