A very small place, almost like a roadside restaurant, but really good! The French fries were excellent — just as they should be. The sate taican was nicely spiced, and the spring rolls were so tasty we ordered them twice. Highly recommended!

The fried kampong duck is a must. Kampong chicken also tasty for those not the duck meat lover. Others dishes do taste good. The beautiful lady boss is very friendly and has a nice chat with her too.
