Nenek, a charming restaurant in Johor Bahru, holds a special place in the hearts of food lovers, and it’s not just the delicious cuisine that draws you in, but the warm and comforting feeling that makes you want to return time and time again.
The beauty of Nenek lies not only in its flavors but in its thoughtful presentation. Their Signature Coconut Rice, especially the 1991 Rendang Beef, is a culinary masterpiece. Each dish is crafted with love, and when it arrives at your table, it’s not just a meal, but a work of art.
For those who have a penchant for spiciness, Nenek has you covered with their requestable additional chilli, a mere RM 0.80 per portion. It’s a nod to the passion they put into their dishes, ensuring everyone’s taste buds are satisfied.
Under their Ageless Biriani Rice selection, the Masak Merah Chicken stands out. The generously sauced chicken is a testament to the richness of their flavors, and the tender meat simply melts in your mouth.
But what truly makes Nenek extraordinary is their heritage and fusion of Malaysian and Balinese cuisine. They’ve taken recipes that have been passed down for over 40 years and turned them into fresh, delectable dishes served every single day.
The name “Nenek” translates to grandmother in Malay, and dining at Nenek feels like a warm embrace from a beloved grandmother, where tradition and love are skillfully woven into each dish. It’s not just a restaurant; it’s a culinary journey through time, where the past meets the present in the most delicious way possible. Nenek offers a taste of the heart and soul of Malaysia and Bali, making it a must-visit for anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience.
