Variety of local food, more for lunch meal but it's open till late in the evening. Their speciality is 'asam pedas' but in smaller amount (they use smaller pots like 16" size of pots) and serving typical fish (6 kinds). There also side dish but I can say it s so many to choose. I don't think you will regret coming here and buy them.
