  Went there about 1.20pm on a weekday and food options were limited. Begedil, sambal goreng and Ayam curry for $8. For sambal goreng, it was very distinctive that tofu were so incredibly soft! It transported me to lalaland! 😂 For the Ayam, I don’t need much effort to tear the meat as it was so tender. The dollop of sambal chilli was packed with kicks, definitely needs fan and cold drink with it! My only regret is that I didn’t go earlier for a wider range of choice. Their business so good that there was constant stream of people ordering even after 1.30pm.

  The rendang is life-changing! So tender and flavourful. Compliments to the chef & the owner. Sambal is absolutely perfect! Spicy, sweet, and savoury all at once. Amazing job!

  Found a few items pretty worthwhile eating. The Ayam Goreng was deep fried with turmeric, crispy on the outside (skin) and juicy inside. And because it is such a popular item, the chef kept frying and there was a continuous replenishment of the chicken drumsticks. Hence still hot and juicy. The Sambal Goreng which consisted of tofu cubes (like Tau Gua deep fried, crispy on the outside, soft and tender inside), tempeh and long beans cooked in thick delicious gravy. This is really good. The Beef Rendang is good too but I would prefer it to be a tad softer; the portion was of good size, lean meat and easy to bite but would be good if it melts in the mouth. Wifey felt that slow cooking for another 15 minutes would give that effect. The Sambal Belacan was really hot and spicy as it was made from Chilli Padi. However, just plain hot wasn’t great! We felt that this Chilli fall short of Belacan. Overall, a very satisfying lunch. But due to the limited sitting capacity (and with social distancing measures), the Cafe could only seat 12 pax.  So if someone orders many packets of takeaway (like we witnessed someone ordered more than 15 packets), the Cafe was empty with nobody seated inside for more than 20 minutes while the “Abang” was packing the takeaway order. As the Cafe is small, owner could easily see the empty seats, he could temporarily stop packing the takeaway order, invite and serve some sit-in customers. This will surely maximize his business and satisfying more customers at the same time.
