Recently don't have time or energy to post much reviews. So, just digging up short ones to get some out of the way. Its a never-ending saga! SATAYS -From memory I ate pork, beef and lamb all at once. The Pork and the Lamb were the best. Satay Sauce is the highlight here. Its thick but buttery smooth, and quite unlike the ones I'm used to eating in Malaysia or Singapore. NICE! 4.5/5NASI UDUK -Not very good in comparison to satays, but nevertheless acceptable. Rendang was not rich, nor tas

NASI UDUK -
Not very good in comparison to satays, but nevertheless acceptable. Rendang was not rich, nor tasty enough, also not dry enough to be a true rendang, which should have a concentrated flavour compacted into the meat cubes. 3/5
CENDOL -
A very well-known 'item', except I have NEVER EVER worked out whether this is suppose to be a dessert or a drink. I remember eating this with shaved ice in Malaysia as a dessert, sometimes ice-less too - scooping with a spoon! Equally I remembered drinking it! If someone knows the answer please enlighten me which is which! The version here is the drink version. I thought it was missing some pandan leaf flavour, also it had no detectable beans paste taste. Coconut taste a bit weak. 3.8/5
MARKISA -
Very little known drink in Hong Kong for some reason, but indeed a very famous Indonesian Passionfruit-based drink! It reminds me of the stuff you drink in plastic bags in South East Asia, but its very refreshing. Don't expect too much - but a Must Try! 4/5
OVERALL - THIS SHOP IMPRESSED AND IS WELL WORTH A VISIT. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, BUT MOSTLY FOR THEIR MARKISA AND THE SATAYS!
