I was expecting a totally Nonya cuisine but this is even better. A mix of the best from spicy Asia ! The Bumbu salad consisting of thinly sliced lemon grass, century eggs, cashew nuts, onions and chilli was a real appetiser. Similarly with their cold tofu and century egg. Other favourite dishes of mine include the tahu telor, the amazing fried fish with chilli, fried spring rolls and Nonya chap chye. There are more of course but these are my personal favourites.
A real distraction for me are the Peranakan antiques all around (so much so that I forgot about taking pictures of the food). Art Noveau tiles which adorned the old houses of many Nonyas and Babas are beautifully framed and placed all around. There are also tiffin carriers lined up along the stairs, intricate Peranakan wood carvings and old nostalgic advertisements. I do feel an overwhelming feast of the senses when I lunch here.
