I ordered a beef rendang, and anyone who knows how to cook understands that rendang is supposed to be thick, rich, and slow-cooked ,not watery like a curry soup. What I was served was completely wrong and very disappointing.

This restaurant is our must go to whenever we visit Genting Highlands and since the food presentation and taste have been quite consistent throughout the years, I think I would like to share my thoughts here.

1st time dine in...Order char kwe tiao, turn out too oily. The snack platter was bit pricey with average taste. the only good was the porridge, generous portion and filling. The service was bit slow, more to improve.
