"Had my first dining here during lunch with my besties. The food is marvelous and the ambience inside cafe also very nice. I enjoyed the food so much. The masak lemak cili api not so spicy and I can indulge it well. Definitely will come again."

"I’ve had lunch here numerous time and recommended this restaurant to many friends and we loved it the same! The talam menu was quite hefty in price yet taste so good! You can choose the protein for Masak Lemak Salai and we opted for Ikan Keli. Also included several other dishes- Ayam Goreng, Sotong Celup Tepung, Tempoyak, Ulam, Tempeh and Tauhu Goreng and Sirap Ais. Another all time favourite are Cucur Bawang and Tauhu Begedil. Try it then thank me later. Haha"

"Nice cozy restaurant located near MITC area. It is very easy to find. A clean environment with good ventilation and adequate spacing of the tables & chairs. The service is good and prompt. The food tastes great. We tried the Western. There are many local varieties available. Not much options for vegetarians, I would say. Payment can be made by QR, cash, or card. Parking slots are easily available near the outlet."

"Negeri Sembilan cooking in Melaka MITC area. Daging salai masak lemak (smoked beef cooked in coconut milk) is recommended, the udang sambal tumis petai (prawn cooked with chilly and stinky beans) is also good. Recommended place to have lunch in MITC area, if you’re looking for something other than asam pedas. Not too busy and not too difficult to find parking in the area."
