Cafe Merkama
Cafe
👍👍 We got the vegan platter which had 8 options that night.
The meal was so filling and delicious and came out quickly.
Only thing I would say is it would be great to see in from the street as if I were a passer by I wouldn’t have know it was open.

👍👍 What a hidden gem!
Without any expectation, went there for quick coffee and breakie and it turned out absolutely great. Not just satisfied coffee but my quick breakie with breakie roll was good. There isn't sufficient kitchen facility, so my expectation was low until I got food. My quick stop at Bal...

First time trying bao buns, I had the pork belly and it was beautiful. Karaage chicken wa...
