The last time I visited Nancy's Kitchen was when they were in their old premises. They always had long lines outside their restaurant then. Now, they have moved to a spanking new place. The hotel staff advised us to make a reservation a day in advance, and we did. It was a Saturday and we were there for dinner expecting a long line. Strangely, not only was there no queue but they had tables for walk ins as well. We ordered Pie Tee, Ngoh Hiang, Chilli Prawns, Tamarind Prawns and plain rice. The Pie Tee was all right but not terribly delicious. The filling was too wet and Pie Tee shells not exactly fresh and crispy. The Ngoh Hiang was soggy and simply unappealing. The Chilli Prawns were flavourful enough but there were only about 6 or 7 small prawns on the plate. The Tamarind Prawns tasted just like the name, prawns fried in tamarind sauce. Nothing spectacular. All the food especially the Ngoh Hiang tasted like they had been heated in the microwave. Even the sambal belachan which should accompany the food had to be paid for at RM3. The chillies were very coarsely pounded and the dish was more seeds than sambal. Perhaps it's because we didn't order the recommended dishes but I was really disappointed with this restaurant because it's supposedly one of the most famous in Malacca.
