The food was good. But the environment was very noisy. The voices and sound were all surrounded and kept inside the shop, making it very hard to have any kind of conversation without raising your voice to be heard.

Turmeric fried rice was very fragrant and had lots of flavour. Some might find it slightly on the oily side, but overall a tasty dish I think. Coffee was nice too. One thing to note is that they serve their cold drinks in chilled mugs with no ice - this preserves the flavour of course, but if you like your drinks ice cold just bear this in mind. Friendly service in a clean and comfortable environment.

Went there for breakfast. Order the tumeric rice w ayam goreng.the tumeric was well fragrant. The chicken was tender and crispy, I personally think that it would taste better if the chicken marinated a bit saltier. The sambal belongs to the sweet style so it's friendly for people like me who don't like it so spicy. For the tonyam fried rice, it was a bit too oily but the ikan rempah was marinated well and taste good.
