Limapulo is one of the few restaurants in KL dedicated to genuine Peranakan (Baba Nyonya) cooking, with recipes passed down through generations. The ayam buah keluak, inchi kabin, and chap chye are standout dishes that showcase the complex spice blends of this unique cuisine. The setting is intimate and the staff are knowledgeable about the food's heritage. It is small so reservations are essential.
