Pondok Kelapa

Sumatra


Fish and seafood are the stars of the show at this appealing restaurant in a tranquil garden gazebo setting. It’s a great place to try giant grilled prawns, cumi asang manis (squid in a sweet and sour sauce), or local specialties such as pinang patin (spicy fish hotpot with pineapple). Menus have pictures but no prices; check before ordering.
