River Caffe

It's quite surprising to find good nosh at really affordable prices at Chulan Square. River Caffe is a kopitiam-esque restaurant that whips up local and western meals, any time of the day. The Bread & Curry Chicken is a nice choice to start off. Although the taste of the curry is quite mild, this mouth-watering dish will get your appetite going. One of their signature dish is the River Caffe's Special Nasi Lemak (RM7.90). What's so special? Serving your usual nuts, anchovies, egg and cucumber as condiments, they also throw in some papadam, chicken rendang and cuttlefish with sambal at your platter. It's delectable and it's filling too. The Nasi Goreng (RM7.90) also gets the thumbs up. The rice is fried to a crisp light brown, with generous amount of meat and shrimp throw in. The portions of the food is one reason why it's worth the visit here. It is big enough to be shared with another person. The waiters are friendly and attentive too. Although the place is really empty off meal-times, the quiet environment is ideal for those who want some privacy.
