The plain-Jane interiors are almost incidental to the small menu of superbly executed Peranakan standards. There’s squid braised with tomatoes and thick green chilli cuts; a deliciously nutty satay pork and gently braised chap chye. The chicken buah keluak is superb – the sauce is a rich, shimmering pool stained midnight black by the ubiquitous nut. Also try the itek tim, a duck soup swirling with tartness and sweetness. Reasonable prices coupled with no service charges or GST make this one of our favourite dining destinations.
