An umami bomb - the salted-egg sauce bursts forth with salt, spice and cream, rich oils that melt into an aromatic mess in your mouth. Layer that with the crustacean complexity of two crab flavours and textures. Perfect for sharing - a little too rich for just one person unless you are absolutely starved for the day.

Coconut-lemak chili padi laced sauce, goes fusion with Italian earthy mushrooms, arugula and cherry tomatoes. Topped with a generous full breast of smoked duck with sweet unagi sauce. The robust flavours of Malay cooking - the sweet, the salty, the spiced and the hot/spicy has all come to the fore in this dish. A crowd pleaser.

Creamy cheesy buttery lemony sauce drowning some ravioli stuffed with ricotta and spinach, and a badass 350gm piece of seared salmon, with a tribute of rocket leaves to make it almost seem healthy. The lemon cuts through to lighten the going, but you must really love cream and cheese to order this - and you might then find yourself in your food heaven.

Portion was huge!!! Easily meant for two with an estimated 400-500gm of meat. The Rendang was extremely lemak, not overly pedas. The kuar was aromatic, with a blend of herb and roasted spices that was umami to the Max. The meat itself, while tender, was too coarse, and unfortunately, could do with a lot more marination and preparation rather than to solely depend on the kuar. Roti Jala, or Roti Kirai, had the right texture, but any hint of coconut fragrance was completely overshadowed by the kuar. Came with a side salad and two quail eggs with sambal. With all the dense jelatness, it really needed a citrus or higher note to balance it out - a salad with citrus dressing or achar would have done the job.

Two huge skewers of tandoori chicken east, quinoa, mesclun, freshly chopped tomatoes, raita and yoghurt dressing. The breast is very dry, typical of tandoori meats. Generous portions for this crowd favorite. Time for a protein pump up!
