    I rarely write reviews, but this place really impressed me. Having eaten at several Michelin-starred restaurants in Penang, this was the most satisfying and amazing one. They took home-style cooking to the extreme!

    The staff were very friendly and provided detailed explanations. The soup with sweet potato leaves and sweet potatoes was delicious and went perfectly with rice; it completely changed my impression of sweet potato leaves!

    Food is good, we had Asam Fish, Ayam Kapitan, Fishmaw soup, kueh paid tee... all are good. The service is v good too. The nutmeg drink is refreshing and the ginger tea has the oomph! Price is reasonable. Recommended!

    Love the place and the food, especially the fried chicken. The restaurant has the comfort of a small home and the taste that reminds you of one too. Would recommend others to this place if they want to taste homemade asian food.

    We had a luxurious lunch at Ivy’s, served by specially trained Lemme Learn Trainee! He made sure we were attended to and he explained the dishes so we get to enjoy it the local way.
