Ibunda

We had dinner at Ibunda restaurant last night, apparently it's last day to redeem our buffet voucher there. This Ibunda located opposite Prince Court and called themselves fine dining for authentic Malay cuisine.




We were there only at 9-ish whilst the buffet starts 7pm...so most food dah habis. Apparently they replenish ALL (main dishes la), nice kan considering lagi sejam je they going close :)

We were given table next to window with view to their pool. And these are some pictures taken..







interior


outdoor stall serving ikan bakar, ikan kukus, ABC etc




one of buffet line








chicken ..very tender but portion too big for buffet style








lamb..tak bau so thumbs up!

















the only reason to come back seriously!








fresh, and nicely presented too!:)








personal serving ikan kukus, unlike those at hotels ;)








ikan bakar








not many place serve with bihun kuning..











sedap! :)









classic choice...only durian and jagung :)






Our verdict...



Service was good, staffs very attentive. Choices not that many but reasonable knowing Malay dishes are generally heavy. Taste wise, alot to improve i think as being local we know originally how Malay food should taste like :) Place also very stuffy...made the experience hmm not so fine dining.




I initially craving for masakan nogori (big fan actually)..masak lemak cili api kind...or rendang...but none there, in fact all food there tak pedas. So if you have any place to recommend for masakan nogori, please, please do so. we dont mind driving to negeri sembilan if require so :)

ibunda ni yg dekat area (or is it further up) pavillion tu ke? i think we passed by this restaurant masa otw nak pegi restaurant seri melayu when our german friend came aritu.

didnt know that it serves local malay dishes, if not, we would've went there sebab seri melayu tutup for private function aritu.

went to rebung but sadly the food was only so-so. i personally think that chef ismail's cooking is nothing to shout about. i ate his cooking on few occasion when he stayed at malaysian's consulate in frankfurt but yeah, nothing special.

but maybe i'm just a picker eater. hehe
