Great traditional Malay cuisine. Food is strictly Halal. The presentation of servings is fantastic. The staff is very friendly and courteous. The place is located in an old and traditional building (yellow house) near Malay Heritage Centre. I highly recommend this restaurant.
But for the food itself, there’s still some room for improvement.
PS: I love their Tauhu Telur & Beef Rendang
Nasi Ambeng ($44/2 pax)
.
Watching a humongous portion of malay cai fan arranged beautifully on a platter meant for sharing sends my appetite to an overdrive. All the spices and flavours together with the bowl of curry gravy drenching over fragrant white rice never fails to give me a serious food coma. This nasi ambeng at Mamanda came with the full works of beef rendang, french beans with tempeh, crispy fried salted fish (seriously addictive), fried dessicated coconut, bergedil, sambal prawns, sambal fish, beef lungs and chicken served in a rich coconut milk curry broth. I love the heat in the spicy dishes and I especially enjoyed the curry chicken. Mamanda also serves up other rice platters but most of the rest require advance orders. All that was lacking was a glass of bundung!
Yummy desserts of Cake Lapis, Kuih Talam Jagung, Gula Melaka Agar Agar, Bubur Pulot Hitam made by our guide, served at the place where he used to stay when he was young, which has now converted to a restaurant.
