Operation hour: opens till latenight
This is a mouthful to pronounce, but we can guarantee you that it is nice for every rainy night to taste this dish. Their main menu and house specialties were Nasi Sup Perut, Air Asam and Daging Bakar. We suggest that you order Daging Bakar, which was not too chewy or too delicate, just right in texture, and it came with sweet-sourish air asam (lime juice) that went well with the meat. This is the vital component of the Daging Bakar dish. The beef stock was soft and just delicious.
