Food is nice , but the only problem is it takes too long to serve our food , 1 hours for only 2 table of customer. Other then that , everything else is ok .

Went here for the first time today and the food were amazing. Standard prices for food at café but it's considered affordable to me. The portion was quite a lot, fulfilling and fit with the price too. I came with my family, we ordered nasi goreng kampung, buttermilk chicken which comes with rice, tomyam soup which you can choose if you want it with rice or a few types of noodles, spaghetti chicken bolognese and french fries. The drinks were good too. Besides the food, the ambience of the café is really comfortable and air-conditioned. A second visit here would be worth it. Maybe soon! And thank you to the friendly staffs too :) P.S. Forgot to take pictures of other food cause everyone dive straight in to their food so only managed to capture the delicious fresh fries
