Pak Dahlan have amazing lamb meat for their dishes. Starting from their lamb satay, their lamb kebab satay (sate buntel), their sweet soy sauce lamb stew (tongseng), and sliced lamb in petis sauce (Krengseng) are all amazing! The place is quite clean and bright as well. You can skip the otak - otak (grilled fish cake wrapped in banana leaves) that they offer though, too much flour.
