We are continually working on our menu, to keep it up to date and to cook mostly from the seasonal local products.
But that doesn’t stop us from creating some international dishes.
Like this one – Indonesian Soup Laksa. Soon we will serve it in our restaurant, but today we challenge you to cook it at home.
