Limapulo @ Baba Can Cook at Jalan Doraisamy

It was my birthday and I wanted to bring my parents to this new place called Limopulo. Limablas is the usual outlet I visited during lunch time and here is the second theme they have come out with. Limapulo is located at the road named Jalan Doraisamy, Dang Wangi. We took the monorail and stop at Medan Tuanku station. Heading to the left side we went down the staircase and walk for about 5 minutes to reach the destination. 

It was a hidden place along the whole stretch of bars and cafe but some are abandon. My parents love spicy food and that makes them excited to come here to try on the food. Limapulo is well known of The Baba-Nyonya cuisine especially their laksa. The place is simple and with minimal decoration as compared to Limablas. I just got to know recently after my visit, they have moved to another place but along the same road as well with nice vintage interior.


We reached early at 12noon before the lunch crowds. I saw the owner sitting there smiling to us. He is very friendly and I ask him do you have your special laksa today? He said YES..Just look at the table setting..It's Friday..so the Nyonya Laksa is available. Because what i have heard in Limablas, the Laksa will sold out before 12.30 noon.

Set lunch available here without drinks ( RM 9.90). We ordered the laksa and ala carte for other menu.



Signature dessert - You must try this milky cendol with the purest coconut milk taste and aromatic gula Melaka. Simply irresistible.

Gerang asam ikan pari . We were delighted by the portion. Obviously this is enough for 4 person servings. The fish is fresh and savoury. The gravy was thick and appetizing. My mum loves this dish.

Ayam pongteh is a very popular peranakan dish. The huge chicken and mushroom portion really surprised us. I keep on asking the staff " Is this the small portion that I have ordered?". She answer me yes two times..Wow...I really satisfied with their food serving today. A delicious Nyonya favourite dish made with chicken, potatoes and mushrooms. Comfort food for the Asian tummy and the gravy is perfectly pair with the rice. Awesome!


We ordered additional Nyonya Laksa from the lunch set. The Nyonya Laksa is so delicious! A hearty bowl of laksa consisting of a meehon and mee with fishballs, fishcakes, sliced cucumbers, lime, chicken meat and half egg. Fragrant and creamy broth. It has the traditional Nyonya Laksa taste which is not too spicy.

My mum tempting to try the barley when she saw other tables ordered it. It was indeed a good and healthy drinks during the hot weather.





We cross the road to Quill City Mall to redeem my Birthday cake from Starbucks..My girl enjoy the outing today. Ride in monorail and have a splendid time together with her grandma and grandpa.Happy birthday to me
