I stumbled upon this cafe and it looked so promising, with signs that the restaurant owner / chef was a judge on masterchef Malaysia, I was excited to try some of their food. The decor and ambiance, top marks, so much to look at and nice foody magazines to keep yourself occupied. I ordered a coffee, it was prefect. I came back for the set lunch, which was very well priced, masak lemak platter. The curry was fragrant and had a nice depth of flavour, however the chicken inside was not tender and I did have to pick my way through bones which is not pleasant. The fish inside the curry was salted and had a very unpleasant, strong fishy taste, but some people may like this. Luckily for me, there were just two little bits of fish in the whole curry, and one big chicken or fish bone. The mango salad was the best part of the meal but unfortunately it was only a mouthful, not enough to enjoy, so I ordered more for 4.50RM. The meal came with a drink which unfortunately I couldn't finish as it felt like I was drinking pure sugar, ( iced rose syrup.) Far too sweet. For dessert the pandan cake, overall it looked pretty, but the taste was mediocre, the sponge was light and airy, but had too much baking powder in the taste, there was just far too much cream filling for the sponge and the whole dessert was just crying out for some crispy coconut pieces or some sort of texture. The sauce drizzles on the top just about saved the dish, but I thought it could be much better.
