Tau Ke tackles local favourites with a focus on Peranakan pleasures. Crunchy bits of pork lard bring a nice bite to jiu hu char (RM10.95) and prawn popiah (RM10.95), while braised pork belly offers a savoury chew for the cute 'kiap pao' (RM4.95).
Starchy selections span the purple and blue, the former represented by soft, baby-food-textured sweet potato porridge (RM1.45), the latter by fragrant butterfly pea-hued nasi lemak (RM1.95). The purple reign persists with the Ai Yu dragonfruit soursop drink (RM4.95); for an alcoholic kick, Korean chamisul soju is available (RM19.95).
