Waktu makan: Makan malam sekitar jam 9pm pada hari Sabtu malam (malam minggu) Meja banyak, orang belum ramai. Makanan yang diorder: Asam pedas jenahak x 2 set Cincalok Bendi goreng Telur dadar Suasana kedai: Tepi jalan besar, berhampiran simpang tiga yang agak sibuk, bersebelahan stesen minyak Ulasan: makanan sangat terbaik. Jenahak segar, asam pedas di masak berasingan. Di tambah pula dengan cincalok yang tak kedekut bawang dan cili. This restaurant is terribly good and worth to try next time. I would give 10 star if possible. The server was nice and friendly. The service was superfast. Only that matters are the location that located very near to the main road. Family with small kids need more extra careful having here.

Daripada segi makanan, alhamdulillah memang sedap. Aku tak minat asam pedas, tapi family member lain yang minat asam pedas, semua kata sedap. Aku order ikan goreng. Walaupun aku cuma makan nasi dengan kuah asam pedas, telur masin dan ikan goreng, tapi ikan goreng dia memang sedap. Ikan fresh rasanya, memang tak ada rasa hanyir sikit pun. Aku memang puji bab ni. Padu memang sedap ikan goreng dia. Tepung goreng dia pun memang padu, ikan goreng rangup elok. Gambar aku tak ambil hari tu, nanti kalau dapat gambar daripada family member lain aku akan upload. Kedai tepi jalan. Cuma kurang cantik mata memandang sebab ada tong sampah berdekatan. Tapi x lah berbau. Pekerja pun baik2 je layan pelanggan. Cuma tempat kedai je, biasa2 saja. Tapi overall puas hati makan dekat sini

Asam pedas ikan jenahak terbaik. Isi ikan jenahak sangat manis dan kuah asam pedas yang sangat enak. Selain itu ada pilihan ikan kembung dan pari. Semuanya sedap. Harganya juga sangat berpatutan.

Best asam pedas. Not too thick or thin. Not overwhelmingly spicy.

The Asam Pedas was very good, and the complimentary dishes like the omelette and the stir fried vegetables are very tasty. The portion was very generous and just nice for a person to eat. Kipas ada orang ubah laa... panas plak tgh sedap makan asam pedas tu
