Confirmed Facts

  • The venue's own Facebook menu lists a Hokkien spiced pork nasi lemak and a roast pork (siu yuk) dish.
  • Independent TripAdvisor and Google reviews describe spicy pork bowls and a spiced pork nasi lemak, corroborating the pork across three channels.
  • The venue has no halal certification, is not Muslim-owned, and the meat is not halal-certified.

Points to Consider

  • The venue's Facebook and Wix pages blocked direct reads, so the pork evidence comes from Google-indexed menu snippets plus independent TripAdvisor and Google reviews rather than a raw menu page.
  • The alcohol policy is not confirmed (one review notes non-alcoholic beer is sold, suggesting the venue is unlicensed), but the pork and the absence of halal-certified meat are the deciding factors.
