I had wanted to try this restauarant for some time and as I was on my way to the Queens Road PCCW shop, I decided to stop by. We had no difficulty getting a table as it was 1215pm. We were surprised by the menu which featured very common and favourite Malay or Indonesian dishes such as nasi lemak ( coconut rice with condiments ) + soto ayam ( chicken clear soup), mee goreng/bakmi goreng ( fried noodles) + curry chicken +nasi goreng ( Indonesian fried rice )...We ordered nasi lemak and mee goreng

We ordered nasi lemak and mee goreng.
The nasi lemak was very well presented in a long plate with beef rendang + peanuts / fried small fish - ikan bilis + fried chicken. The rice was supposedly coconut rice but it taste more like chicken rice. It was disappointing to traditionist like us but palatable. The mee goreng was also well presented in a long plate. But the noodles used was maggie noodles instead of the (Indian style yellow noodle). The taste was not the traditional style but rather modern for my liking.
The drinks we ordered was lime soda which was the most authentic and traditional version that came with lime seeds...attached
All in all, it was nonetheless a wonderful experience to have eaten Indonesian. The taste was a new taste but palatable.
Lastly, we noted that the atmosphere was rather odd. It had rustic wooden furnitures more akin to a western fish n chip joint rather then Indonesian restaurant. But then again, the lighting was beautiful..and who cares ..we are in a globalised world..and modern Indonesian is here to stay...
