This restaurant featuring Nyonya cuisine was recommended to me by a very good school friend who had just been to George Town earlier in December, 2016 and had eaten here. It also had good reviews so I made a reservation on the web though when I got to the restaurant, was told that he (the main guy there) had nothing to do with the web reservation system, that he didn’t have a reservation for me and that he had a full house. I did insist that my reservation was confirmed and accepted so he had to do something and since I was one, it wasn’t difficult for him to give me a seat at a communal table.
With the set lunch which was recommended came barley water, either warm or cold. I had the warm one which turned out to be very different from the Japanese barley tea (same as water) mainly because it was not roasted like ours and sweet.
Only canned beer available 😦
My set lunch menu. Fish, fried chicken, steamed white rice with fried egg. Green veg. OK but nothing special.
A bit of a frustrated experience because I could have had so much better food at stalls and less fancy eateries!
