The signature dish, lamb shank rendang, is absolutely incredible and I defy anyone to finish it without passing out. The house wine was lovely and the roti to start was pleasant, although the sides you get with it are a little dodgy.
The restaurant is expensive, but the food is of a high quality. The waitress we had could not have been friendlier or more helpful. And although there is only one toilet upstairs (we never ventured downstairs), it’s a really nice toilet which is the sign of a quality place!

Went to this restaurant with a special offer of 50% off the food and was impressed. It’s a new place, nicely decorated although a bit cramped as the tables are all very close together as they are clearly trying to get as many people in as possible! It was busy, and the service was a bit slow, but we weren’t in a hurry. They serve asian and british food, although it’s not fusion. We all started with the roti with 3 chutneys which was not wonderful. Prawn crackers were good and seafoody. I had pork belly - a delightful square of thick, crunchy, salty pig skin and fat atop a deep square of juicy pork, simply presented on top of mash and curly kale. Yum! The signature lamb dish was also good, with a big portion of tasty, succulent meat. The malaysian prawn curry was tasty with giant prawns and apparently the pineapple and aubergine curry was also good. Chocolate fondant was a let down, but the sticky toffee pudding with caramel ice cream was very good. Decent wine list with a good number of wines on offer under £15. Overall a great meal in a good atmosphere, but I think that the price with 50% was about right, and wouldn’t pay full whack for what we had.
