Could count the number of legit Perenakan meals I've had with both my hands yet my amateur opinion rates Candlenut as number one for now.
I mean all wok dishes and curries we had fully embodied rich Perenakan flavors, of which most desirable to my palate- coconut milk and tamarind 😬
Rice is never plain when you can afford mixing it up with the rich gravies.... Mmhmm
[One Michelin 🌟] Sounds quirky but it worked very well. It came as a medley of flavours, texture and temperature in a single dessert.

The cold buak keluak ice cream sits atop a bed of chocolate crumble, salted caramel and chilli specks, then topped with warm milk chocolate espuma. Evident is the popping candies and the sharp chilli. The earthy ice cream is light in its buah keluak taste, so the ice cream is still dominated by the 80% valhrona chocolate. Be sure to eat everything (espuma, ice cream and all the crumbles) together to enjoy the full spectrum of the flavours, texture and temperature simultaneously.

The friendly server Felix who’s just like your uncle next door said “Look, the ice cream has not melted. This is also whats special about it".
A stick of this on the tasting menu was blatantly insufficient; hence an order of 4 sticks more.... give.us.more (!!!)
