I must recommend this place to everyone. When you first arrive you think maybe not, but do it. Their food is amazing. First of all the owners are very sweet and welcoming. You get your menu cards and order. Then you can hear from the kitchen that they start preparing the food. Nothing is done in advance, and everything is fresh and super nice. For starters we had the Springrolls to nights in a row. I have never tasted so good tasting rolls before. This is a MUST try. First night we had the curry chicken and pork soya for main courses.

Definitely try the spring rolls, they're the best we've ever tasted - freshly hand-made rather than the processed versions we're so used to elsewhere. Likewise, what makes the food so great is that it's freshly cooked with love. We tried a lot of the menu and can especially recommend the rendang (astonishingly good), the curry, stuffed pork chop, nasi goreng...
Marta and her husband are great hosts. We so enjoyed meeting them and they helped make our holiday...
