Re-visiting this place again since there was a Groupon offer. I think it is a pretty good deal as one can even use it during weekends.This time I ordered the Assam Fish Head ($34.90), Spicy Beef Rendang ($9.90) and Braised Homemade Spinach Beancurd ($12.90). The Assam Fish Head was not as good as I anticipated. The gravy was diluted (perhaps it is supposed to be) and bland. It tasted sourish but it lacked the rich Assam taste and it was not spicy at all (would prefer more zest of spiciness in it

There was plenty of fish meat but didn't taste as fresh sadly
The Beef Rendang, on a brighter note, tasted quite tantalizing. Tender Beef chunks stir fried in fragrant coconut milk, herbs and spices
To round up our meal, despite feeling full already, there is always room for desserts haha I tried the Cendol ($4.50), a combo of rich and smooth coconut milk with jackfruit, red beans, grass jelly and palm sugar. It was sweet, surely and sinful as well haha
A satisfactory meal except that the Assam Fish failed to live up to expectations >< But the Groupon deal was a very worthwhile one indeed
