    Cottage Spices Nyonya RestaurantPork free d90bfb235d64e73ff14d8ad65b89aaab71a3af43962907cb9cd494af0a63fa21Alco free 9fb1f2c65edc2c1eaf4e8b24402d108dd33cc2bc71f0fb0022a54c3c390a66c8

    With an encouraging name, this casual eatery is another strong contender in the Nyonya cuisine scene. The menu here is pretty straight-forward and simple although not exactly filled with variety. Portions are also smaller than usual but no fret, as they are packed with big flavours, which matters most. Their Sambal Sotong with Petai aka spicy chilli squids with stinkbeans tastes fresh and extremely spicy. On the other hand, their Otak-Otak is strongly influenced by the Northern style otak-otak. It's an acquired taste as the heavy scent of lemongrass is slightly overwhelming. Wrap up your climax with a bowl of cendol

    Tips

    Limited space here as the restaurant can only acommodate about 10 tables.

    Things to expect

    Comfortable Nyonya dining experience.
