Creamy Salted Egg Sauce Fillet Fish (RM 15.80)

Indiana Chicken (RM 13.80)

Braised Lamb Shank (RM 32.80)

Though the menu at the restaurant is small but it features a few specialty dishes that worthy mention. For instance, not many people could resist the temptation of Creamy Salted Egg Fillet Fish (RM 15.80), which packs with a punch of pleasant creaminess with the nice salted egg taste. Just imagine the moment of pouring those salted egg sauce onto the fish would leave your saliva drooling.

Other than Creamy Salted Egg Sauce, you could also pick Tar-tar sauce, spicy thai sauce, lemon butter sauce, or mango kerabu sauce. Personally, the spicy thai sauce and mango kerabu sauce did manage to trigger my taste buds upon hearing the name.

Indiana Chicken (RM 13.80) is a special and delicious dish which we really liked for the day. The chicken cutlet is well fried to possess a tender texture and not oily, topped with an unique curry sauce which tastes like Japanese curry albeit with a slight thicker consistency. For a mere RM13.80, this dish ought to stand out as the most price savvy dish.

Braised Lamb Shank (RM 32.80) is gigantic in portion. The entire lamb shank is sitting on some mashed potatoes, and drenched with its black pepper sauce. Mix all the ingredients together to become a nice concoction to enjoy.

Aglio Olio (RM 14.80)

Carbonara (RM 13.80)

If you prefer some noodles choices instead, then Aglio Olio, served with prawns (RM 14.80) and Carbonara, served with bacon and ham (RM 13.80) are some great choices. Setting aside their wallet friendly price tags, the noodles of the Aglio Olio is cooked to al-dente, then well dressed with drizzles of cheese powder, olive oil and fresh prawns to mark all the yes for a good plate of Aglio Olio.

Meanwhile, Carbonara is set for those who enjoys some creaminess. We added some salt and pepper to it to introduce some saltiness and pepperish taste for a better total enjoyment.

Mango Kerabu Salad (RM 5.80)

Homemade Mushroom Soup (Rm 5.80)

The appetizers here are made to be value for money too. A bowl of hot and creamy Homemade Mushroom Soup cost RM 5.80 where as a plate of Mango Kerabu Salad that packs with a generous quantity of salad also cost the same price.
