2 nights having dinner there.Special and authentic food, mixture of the cuisine. Taste is so special.Love the special otak, guava salad, mushroom roll, ..the fish is a must to try as well.Service slight slow if is few table comeTogether.Special dessert to complete the meal.Environment - abit like Balinese style
Beautifully decorated restaurant, really friendly staff and most importantly delicious food.My otak otak rice was delicious. The garlic bread with chicken sauce was yummy. Everything was homemade.The mulu ice cream came in a huge portion. Chocolate and vanilla ice cream sandwiching a layer of cake topped with toasted oats. Perfectly balanced and not sickly sweet.The star of the meal had to be the mushroom roll. So delicious. Give it a try. Don't have to be a vegetarian to appreciate the flavours.Highly recommended.
Today went to try their leicha only available on Friday at affordable price, also tried their Mulu Ice Cream.
This is truly one of its kind of cafe in Sarawak. Most of the items in the menu are only available here, and if available elsewhere, would not be able to compare with here . Its cuisine would be described as all round and broad asian with some fusion. The food itself is robust yet delicate, fresh, appropriately flavoured and spiced without overpowering the natural flavour profile of the fresh food ingredients, and effortly presented and plated. Their love for their food and presentation shows through also in the cafe design, decorations and fresh floral and fauna enhancements rounded off with impeccable service. Outstanding and unique food from their menu, are the pomelo salad, herbs salad, mushroom rolls, unique curries/masala and jelly Pisang, besides other desserts which I have not been able to try, as I usually over enduge without saving stomach space for desserts, but which I am confidently sure that they would also be equally awesome. Pricing wise would be considered as higher than average, but in due consideration of the quality of food, service and environment, it is reasonable and well worth for the treat.
Amazing hidden gem in Sibu! The menu is very diverse, from Thai to Indian and prepared very well and full of flavour.
The rojak is to die for. I love how it’s served chilled, and the sauce is made of gula apong so it wasn’t too sweet. There were so many interesting ingredients in there too. The only downside was that there were mosquitos under the seat.
