Generous portionsGood value
Absolute GOAT of a place. Menu is huge, lots of options. Been here twice, got 7 different dishes, and every single one of them ATE. Delicious & rich flavour, hits the spot, fresh as hell. Service is amazing, we got starters & mains for two, they were served in less than 10 minutes. Cozy & ambient atmosphere, clean bathroom with hot water in the tap, soap & tissues. Staff is very friendly and attentive. Could not praise enough 💅
Asian Chinese food was just average. It wasn’t bad, but not particularly impressive either. My children didn’t enjoy it, though my dish was acceptable. Overall, it’s fine for a one-time visit, but not somewhere we’d return to regularly.
If you want to taste Kuala Lumpur / Malaysia, but no time yet / no holiday booked / you think it is far, maybe just come to this place to taste these two foods first.
The Curry Laksa was so good that we add on take away ;). I can say it tasted like home, the real way of cooking it.
Nasi Lemak is one of our common dishes in Malaysia. You wont be wrong to try and taste this here.
Will come again next time we are in Galway.
