Jawi House Cafe Gallery Dinner

At Jawi House Cafe Gallery. Dinner with my aunt last night at the charming Michelin Select Jawi Peranakan, established by Georgetown's Karim family of Punjabi-Jawi Peranakan ancestry. Dating back six generations in all, it continues to serve the cuisine created by four generations of women, taking us back along the spice route & food that has become the cornerstones of Malaysian culture. We went with laksa lemak, mutton briyani, mango kerabu & prawn fritters, rounding up the meal with sago gula melaka & pengat pisang. Every dish was prepared with love, the flavours shone through, and the location, though small, was simply beautiful.
