The restaurant will accept takeaway orders from 14 to 25 December with 5 days advance notice. On a rare sweet indulgent note is the Bolu Cocu, bearing similar shape to the local snack kuih bahulu, a teatime cake perfumed with grated coconut and the ambrosial scent of spices such as cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg, baked in a brass dome-shaped mold.
Chef Damian shared, “In the early days, it was rare for families to own an oven. Therefore, granddad improvised by building a make-shift oven using a big empty biscuit tin, and charcoal to bake the bolu-cocu. The aroma emanating from the tin box was simply sublime.”
Making their glorious return are some all-time Christmas favourites, like Feng, a festive staple featuring assorted pig’s offal stewed with 18 different spices. The freshly baked Eurasian Christmas Pie is filled with generous amounts of scrumptious chicken, meat balls, pork sausages, potatoes and carrots; topped with a buttery puff pastry baked to a golden brown perfection. The celebrated Sugee Cake makes its anticipated re-appearance, and teases with its buttery rich, moist yet light and nutty crumb of almond meal.
