ORCHID RIA

+604 9554128            

Opening Hours:

11am - 3pm & 6pm - 11pm

 

From humble beginnings to one of the most popular places in Langkawi!  Faded newspaper clippings tell the story of a tiny home-eatery in Kuah..

 

Surrounded by a beautiful orchid garden, mother Loh served delicious home cooked meals, freshly prepared from seafood brought by one of her sons who used to be a fisherman The rumor spread fast, so that more and more tables needed to be added, until the family moved their business to Pantai Cenang 12 years ago. Today, Orkid Ria can accommodate 250 guests, and the famous restaurant is bursting full each and every night. But apart from size, not much has changed. The former fisherman hand-picks the best catch of the day, while his brother goes at dawn to the wet market to select the most fresh seafood and

vegetables available. The meanwhile grown-up sons stand behind the stove, preparing favorite Chinese dishes and the legendary fish and seafood delicacies. A major attraction is the huge aquarium with live grouper, sea bass, mangrove crabs and gigantic lobsters to choose from. The seasoning is adjusted accordingly to the personal taste of each diner. While Asian guests are thrilled to find on the menu rare specialties such as sea cucumber, Westerners love the grilled lobster and chili tiger prawns. When asked what makes Orkid Ria so popular, the owners shrug modestly their shoulders, mentioning affordable prices and efficient service. But savoring the delicious flavour of the exotic dishes, I am pretty sure that is just part of the success…

    Inhabiting the seafloor around Langkawi, the marine creatures called Sea Cucumber (or in local slang 'Gamat') are believed to have great medicinal value which was discovered some three hundred years ago in a rather unusual way: Heading to the shores to bring home the day's catch, a fisherman brushed with his leg against the slimy elongated body of a Sea Cucumber. As a natural defense, the creature released a milky fluid so sticky it can compete with the most advanced underwater adhesives utilized today! Realizing that he will have to shave his leg to get rid of the gummed up hair, the fisherman took his rusty old axe, hacking in fury any sea cucumber around into pieces. The surprise came on the following day. Instead of finding a shore full of lifeless Sea Cucumber bodies, the fisherman discovered that his victims miraculously recovered over night. Superficial wounds were completely healed and while looking a little sore, those sea cucumbers that were cut right through somehow managed to re-join their detached body parts. A finding that got the fisherman thinking: If capable of healing itself, could a Sea Cucumber extract assist with wound healing?! The thriving Sea Cucumber industry of today proves him right. Producing granules of insoluble proteins that stick together, Sea Cucumber has the ability to accelerate regeneration and trigger the growth of new cells which makes it one of the most effective natural wound healing agents. Boosting additionally the production of collagen, Sea Cucumber extract has also the reputation to reduce fine lines and counter-act the development of deep wrinkles, enhancing the appearance of aging skin. While an amazing ingredient, it does make a difference how is it further processed. Which is where Pisang's skin care production comes into play. Obtaining the gamat extract from selected fishermen that adhere to sustainable practices, the manufacturing process is strictly regulated in terms of hygiene and the fresh goat milk and fine coconut powder added to create the hand-made soaps are of highest quality. Infused with pure essential oils for an added Aromatherapy benefit, you can choose a calming lavender, invigorating peppermint or a soap with the sensual scent of pink plumeria. Ideally complemented by a matching lotion or cream. Recently added to the assortment is a range of wonderful product from a virgin coconut oil with a scent so rich and divine you will not only love to pamper your skin with it but also tempted to drizzle it over an exotic tropical salad. Which is absolutely an option!! While at it, purchase also a few bars of coconut soap. You can choose between a refreshing Lemongrass aroma, a sensual Sandalwood or the invigorating Peppermint scent. But even the unscented bar of a coconut soap is so fragrant, you may happily stick to the pure version. Intrigued? Wait until you see the beautiful packaging! Wrapped in colorful fabrics, the skin care products make the perfect gift while giving away another specialty of Pisang: Wonderful batik accessories! Crafted by the local artisan Azira in the art studio on the first floor, they range from tiny coin purses, bags, scarves and pareos to beautiful large paintings that can be rolled up for a convenient travel arrangement. Whether you like a modern pattern or traditional art with heliconia, hibiscus or lotus flower motives, the selection is large and you can even have a made-to-order piece! Curious how the batik art is made? Join a workshop and experience first-hand the overall process from drawing a pattern with a canting dipped into a hot wax and subsequent coloring with the wax-lines building a natural barrier that prevents the colors from spilling, making sure you end up with the stunning piece you envisioned! Still in a shopping mood? Take your time walking around the spacious store and discover some hidden treasures such as unique jewelry made of semi-precious stones, original beats and the famous freshwater pearls from Borneo! Whatever your taste - a visit to the Pisang Handicraft & Art Village is a must when looking for lovely gifts to bring back from your holidays in Langkawi.

Located opposite Underwater World, Maroush may not be the only restaurant in Pantai Cenang that specializes in Indian and Arabic cuisine. But the philosophy of the owner certainly makes it stand out!

 What may sound like a marketing slogan is very much backed up by actions! The salary of the Chefs fluctuates based on guest feedback! Although you would have to be a gourmet to appreciate the finest culinary nuances, the restaurant goes above and beyond to ensure the highest quality, cooperating even with a Spice Consultant who insists that the flavor of spices will vary if harvested only a couple of days later…

samer6712@gmail.com

Opening Hours: noon - midnight

Located opposite Orchid Ria, the recently opened restaurant Yasmin lures with an intimate atmosphere and genuinely caring service. Your meal will be served before you manage to empty a glass of a freshly squeezed mango or pineapple juice. And if you happen to glance towards the open kitchen, you will meet the eager look of a kitchen-maid that turns into a broad smile once you give her the thumbs-up. You can tell it’s a family-run business even before you get to chat to one of the two brothers or their cousin.

With traditional Syrian music gently playing in the background, walls decorated with large photographs of Damascus and Ma’loula, a picturesque village built into a rugged mountainside, and a menu that

celebrates the culinary heritage of Syria, you are in for a truly authentic dining experience. Although the names of the dishes sound similar to those you may find in a Turkish or a Lebanese restaurant, the distinctive blend of spices makes a difference. The culinary mantra of the brothers? To spoil their guests with such a delicious food as the one prepared by their mum and grandma.

Having established a reputation of a ‘must-visit dining outlet’, the charming 'crêperie' brings to Langkawi a little taste of Paris.

 

Nearly as iconic as the Eiffel Tower, the thin pancakes are celebrated throughout France with their very own  'National Crêpe Day'! A sentiment you will understand the moment you taste Soumia's and Vincent's heavenly creations!

 

Passionate about serving crêpes just as delicious as those sold in Brittany, the place of their origin, the French couple attended a traditional Crêpe School and although it's a little costly to get the ingredients the original recipe calls for, they wouldn't have it any other way!

Made of finest wheat flour or organic buckwheat for savory crêpes, the semi-liquid butter with a few secret ingredients is poured on a heated circular 'bilig' and evenly spread with a  wooden 'rozell' to make the pancakes as thin as possible. It's quite an art to get it right and with an open-concept cooking station a great fun to watch!

Obtaining the gamat extract from selected fishermen that adhere to sustainable practices, the manufacturing process is strictly regulated in terms of hygiene and the fresh goat milk and fine coconut powder added to create the hand-made soaps are of highest quality. Infused with pure essential oils for an added Aromatherapy benefit, you can choose a calming lavender, invigorating peppermint or a soap with the sensual scent of pink plumeria. Ideally complemented by a matching lotion or cream. Recently added to the assortment is a range of wonderful product from a virgin coconut oil with a scent so rich and divine you will not only love to pamper your skin with it but also tempted to drizzle it over an exotic tropical salad. Which is absolutely an option!! While at it, purchase also a few bars of coconut soap. You can choose between a refreshing Lemongrass aroma, a sensual Sandalwood or the invigorating Peppermint scent. But even the unscented bar of a coconut soap is so fragrant, you may happily stick to the pure version. Intrigued? Wait until you see the beautiful packaging!
