Phoenix Baba Nyonya Delights — Restaurant in Negeri Sembilan

1. Ponteh Chicken (4/5): A very home cooked taste, chicken not bad, the potato is soft, the mushroom absorb the sauces very well and taste nice, and the sauce is very homey and well seasoned

2. Fry Potato Leaf (4/5): Potato leaf is well cooked

3. Fried Lobak (4.5/5): Slightly above average Lobak, the fillings could be improved to increase the aroma, however my partner love it and attempt to order a second time

I did...The aromatic smoky sweetness of the palm sugar compliments the plain looking coconut santan well. Another gem is the interior. The restaurant stands out from the rest on this beach front town because Stephen a former studio creative director; has dived deep into his whimsical mind to give this makan place a mega dose of nostalgia with an array of memorabilia and artifacts from...

This is a more than legit Baba Nyonya home cooking restaurant ❤️ Me and my husband not only filled our tummy with tasty flavoursome classic Nyonya Baba cooking - pongteh and chicken roll - Also were happy and delight to know and chat with the friendly owner. Also, the Nyonya Laksa is a must! I can assure you, this is one the best Nyonya Laksa in Malaysia. Even with simple basic ingredient: hardboiled egg, taufu pok, bean sprout, fish cake and prawn, the whole Laksa taste is well balance. The coconut milk of the curry Laksa is not too over powering, add in their sambal and lime, the flavour of the soup will b enhanced to next level! need to highlight: there are NO MSG usage in their food! Hence you won't feel dizzy or sleepy after having...
