Tried several dishes here and quite impressed! The fried fish was absolutely delicious, crispy, flavorful, and a must-try with the chili sauce it comes with. The Gurame Geprek is a signature dish and truly worth ordering.
Another highlight is the Nasi Liwet with silverfish & chili. The rice was so fragrant and flavorful that I couldnāt stop eating. We also tried the Karedok, which reminded us of local Rojak, raw vegetables with a rich, peanut-heavy sauce that gives it a unique, addictive taste.

Definitely a place to include in your Batam...

The kangkung was another surprise, but not in a good way. It tasted more like potato leaves than real kangkung, with a different texture and flavour that just did not feel right. Overall, the food had a few good hits but also several misses, so the...
