Woody Family Cafe

My friend and I were exploring his neighbourhood when we came upon this quaint little place called ‘Woody Family Cafe’.
These were the houses around the area. In the midst of it all, out of nowhere was the Woody Family Café.
We were curious about the quaint diner in the estate. Since it was dinner time, we decided to give it a try.

I will talk about our dinner first. Then I will show you pictures of the place.

Woody Family Café specialises in Peranakan food, but they also do western dishes.

We ordered half a dozen of 'normal' buffalo wings. 'Normal' in terms of spiciness. They have 1 to 5 ticks of spiciness. 'Normal' was 2 ticks. Why they call them buffalo wings is a mystery. They were nice, but nothing special.

Lamb shank rendang. This was really good. The lamb was tender, the rendang divine. Absolutely lovely. But it was a tad too spicy for me. My tongue was burning and I was sweating as I ate. I guess I am one of those who does not have a high tolerance for too spicy food.
This is Otah - a Peranakan delicacy. It is fish paste mixed with herbs and spices, wrapped in banana leaves and grilled over charcoal. They were nice.
And a portion of long grain rice mixed with brown rice.
Tiger beer - from the local brewery.
This is their set menus - a choice of Wester or Peranakan.
Sections of their dining hall.
Their little bar counter.
The ceilings.
What do you think of all the blink blink? And the bits of, I assumed memorabilia. I thought it was 'interesting', to begin with. But, by the time I had my dinner, I thought it was a bit much. A quaint little place indeed.
They were quite busy though. I guess they must be doing all right. It is a bit tucked away. But they are the only eatery in the estate and there is a bus that stops outside on the main road. So, they are quite accessible if you know where they are.
