Since there's no Google place for their Cafe, I must drop and warn anyone not to pay a single penny to this Cafe as they literally have no ethic. This stall is nearby white mosque, we opt to dine here as we were craving for tomyum. We ordered a 3 person set meal with dishes of tomyum + fried vege + telur dadar (omelette), the price was RM40 which is way higher than the ala carte price. Tomyum udang (prawn) ala carte (RM9), vege (RM6), omelette (RM2), rice (RM1. 50 each) total should be RM22 which is double of the set. So we assumed the portion is indeed for 3 persons but the dishes came with super little portion and the prawns literally unfresh and small to the extent that the flesh weren't even edible as it broken/hancur while peeling it. We were so dissapointed as we had never had prawns this small and not fresh in our life and it happened on an island ! Not to mention, the taste of tomyum is totally tomato sauce or something, you may see the portion from the photos attached.The food at Medan Selera Perhentian Kecil were so much better with fresher ingredients and bigger portion.. .We thought go to the local places to dine will get to taste the local cook , but unfortunately this so call Cafe was such a turn off to our fun stay at Perhentian Kecil. - HX Low
