Overall, I enjoyed the spice and flavours of the authentic Malay dishes, but found them too salty for my palate. Perhaps if I had more rice to absorb the gravies. Definitely hard to keep to your diet here if you want to try all the nice and spicy curries!
Cili Kampung’s show-stealing Gulai Nangka with Pucuk Manis (RM35) won us over at first bite. The chunks of tender young jackfruit and leafy Sabah vegetable (sauropus androgynus) in coconut milk had such well-balanced flavours, we instantly went for repeat helpings.
