Coffee Terrace

Step into Hainan Express and reminisce the simplicity of the good old days. We bring back the basics such as all-time favourite toasted breads with kaya, aromatic coffee and authentic Nasi Lemak.

We went for the buffet dinner. What I love most is there is cupuccino, latte, the coffee machine. There's Japanese corner, Western Food Corner, ice cream, ice kachang, etc. Love the satay here. the buffet breakfast is 44.00, lunch 44.00 n dinner 88.00. If you have genting points , you can use to redeem, even if points not enough, you can pay the balance, is like a discount.

Gonbei

Reviewed By MalcolmM1947 - Richmond-upon-Thames, United Kingdom

It can be quite chilly at night in the Cameron Highlands so eating at the Gonbei, sitting around a warming heater for our 'steamer' dinner was just right. We had a selection of local vegetables, seafood, lovely thin slices of beef and noodles to dip into a chicken broth with noodles. There was plenty to eat and you could top up with more fresh veggies and noodles any time.

Sri Brinchang

Reviewed By Malaysiantraveller68 - kuala lumpur

Had breakfast there. The roti (canai) telur and chapati were quite ordinary and average in my opinion. What stood out was the naan with fresh strawberry slices and honey, first time I came across it.
Being a cheap place, people shared long tables and a couple from Japan sat next to us. Table-tops not so clean and we could see food still sticking to the cutlery that wasn't properly washed. We chose to eat with our hands as a result.
The staff were friendly and accommodating and it was obviously one of the most popular tourist joints with large crowds day and night. However, for Indian food on Camerons, I enjoyed nearby Singh's Chapati much more although one would pay more for the food and drinks.

The current listings on trip advisor are very limited and this relatively new establishment provides good food at reasonable prices, and provides a different choice (japanese) for people (esp after travelling for an extensive time in Malaysia)

Exceptional food. Gyoza and bipimpap absolutely beautiful. Partner ate spring rolls and pork Kim chi. Was described as spicy but he said it wasn't. Simple restaurant but highly recommended. Best food in Tanah Rata. Child friendly and several there when we ate. Staff great and attentive

Alor Akar Restaurant

Reviewed By COOKIE1288

Hardly to get any parking here... but the food is nice and cheap... just if you are not eating much of fatty meat, avoid ordering the yam basket pork & also claypot salted fish pork.. because the fats is more than the lean meat.... Peipa Duck is just average... the meat is just too hard and overcooked.... overall the dishes is good and the price is very reasonable.. very pack during 7-9pm... loaded with customer. Be prepared to wait if you are coming during this hour.

Don't Tell Mama Eco bar

Beachfront cafe / bar with fresh food in the relax and comfortable atmosphere. Wifi and card payment available.Pet friendly.

Reviewed By krayzie_blaze - Malaysia

This restaurant and bar is eco friendly and pet friendly. One of the very few restaurants in Malaysia where your furry companions can also enjoy the beach with you. There are also games for children and book exchange where you can grab a book lie on the hammock overlooking the beach while you sip their signature cocktails. Aside from the great ambience the food menu has a selection that will bring you towards a tantalizing gastronomical delight. The experience will leave you wanting to return to this Cherating treasure.

Had great service here and drinks came in nice ice cooler. Pizzas and burgers plus other snacks. Service quick and very polite it’s very open and clean and the burger was good the pizzas too. More for a snack than a proper meal but lovely nevertheless.
Views to outside too and nice decor. Prosecco was lovely in the small bottles and very chilled. Reasonable too.

It is closed for 3 months! Really disappointed. There should be a notification on trip advisor or Google . Waste my time driving from Brinchang to Tanah Rata in heavy jam to find it closed. Please find other alternatives for now as it is closed.

The Smokehouse Hotel & Restaurant

Reviewed By PipPaul W - Buckfastleigh, United Kingdom

We indulged with Smokehouse Tea for me - three finger sandwiches (smoked salmon and cream cheese) - a scone, jam and cream, and fruit cake; Pip had a cucumber Sandwich
The smoked salmon sandwiches were nice, but too cold all the way through. They gave the distinct impression that they had been made en-masse and then stored in the fridge. One was cold-stuck to the plate.
The scone was really nice, with a generous portion of decently made jam, and a whipped cream.
The cucumber Sandwich was generous - 6 quarters - and came over as freshly made, it was at room temperature. It came with a goodly portion of crisp crinkle cut chips.

Reviewed By JMB93200

We decided to have diner there after having seen reviews in TA.
The food is fine but don't expect anything amazing.
The service is correct as well.
1 chicken dry fruit masala + 1 mutton dry fruit masala (both "large" as we thought "small" would not be enough), they come with rice + 1 chapati ( naan with plain floor) with garlic and cheese + 1 bottle of water = 60 MYR
