Formerly operating from the Melaka Monorail Food Village (which has since being permanently closed), the food is still as good as ever. Infact, the choices of food have increased tremendously. Apart from its signature western cuisines, there is also nasi geprek, fried rice, chicken rice & a host of other local delicacies. The prices are reasonable considering the large portion served. One of the plus points of dining here is its location. Located just by the banks of Sungai Melaka & rows of palm trees, it provides a great ambience while dining.

We were looking for a local spot to enjoy traditional dishes in a relaxing atmosphere, and this place was perfect for us! The food was delicious, and the staff was incredibly kind! After we finished eating, they were kind enough to store our luggage while we enjoyed a walk along the river! Fabio & Sandra
