OrderLamb biryani (slow-cooked dum style), hunter's beef and one of the chai-glazed lamb chops.

OrderBeef rendang, roti canai with curry chicken dip, char kway teow.

OrderMasala omelette with roti at breakfast. The thali plate at dinner.
TipBreakfast (7am to 11am) is the lesser-known peak. The thali changes daily; ask what is on it before you order.

OrderThe bone-in ribeye and the 44-Farms wagyu sampler. Order one of the dry-aged cuts off the side menu.
TipReserve four to six weeks ahead for Saturday. The bar serves the full menu and is the easier seat.

OrderA 28-day dry-aged bone-in ribeye and creamed spinach.
