“ Nasi ayam + sate setia...fast served..but for chicken rice don't serve with tomato & salad...maybe we go there a little bit late...overall the dishes were ok ”
“ My sister introduced this fantastic chicken rice restaurant. The place was quite busy when we got there, it must be excellent! To enjoy their chicken rice, I had to stay in line to place the order. There’s a regular and special chicken rice to choose from, and I ordered the special one for me. The difference between regular and special is the size of the chicken and the amount of gravy. On my first bite, I flipped because it was so delicious! I think we have a winner here! Best chicken rice in this town. We also ordered satay from next door cafe. Wow! Another excellent dish! Super authentic Malay-style satay with peanut sauce that I can’t get in NY! We loved this place. The women behind the counter who prepared the chicken rice were lovely, helpful, and hardworking. Recommended! ”
“ The Nasi Ayam (Chicken Rice) was very nice. The chicken and the sauce paired perfectly. Worth the try. But it's a little sweet I suppose, need to improve on that a little. We also ordered their Bihun Sup, it was very delicious. My mom said that it is very original as a Kedah Bihun Sup. Overall a nice experience. Maybe need to improve a little on the cleanliness of the restaurant. ”
