I had the beef rendang which was really tasty! I'm told the Laksa is even better :) the laksa is made with candlenut which fellow nut-allergy sufferers need to be aware of, but this also means that the laksa is more traditionally made. The chef and staff are very eager. The chef is passionate about the food and his creations. His passion and care for the food is quite lovely to see and is apparent in the taste and presentation of his food. Service was fast at dinner time, but we were there late.
So why only 4 stars? I like my beef rendang spicy, and it wasn't really spicy, but then the chef came out and asked me if I like it spicy. After agreeing, he quickly came out with his homemade chili sauce that he usually adds to spicy dishes. He said to mix it in to see how I like it, and it added the kick I was missing. I think it would be great to ask customers if they want it spicy when ordering :)) overall, a great first experience though!
