    Marco Restaurant steward said that each of platter can feed up to 4 people.

    To which I seemed to disagree.

    Perhaps it is beacuse I am relatively tini in the built, but I think the 8-inch-diametre pan with jam-packed mix dishes on it can feed up to 7 people.

    Perhaps here, the concept "family restaurant" is taken quite literally. For a solo eater, this dish is probably a bit too large. 

    Of course, a Padang restaurant wouldn’t be fully complete without Padangnese coffee.

    We ordered 2 kinds of coffee that became the highlight : Es kopi susu padang (Padangnese iced coffee with condensed milk), es kopi Padang (Padangnese iced two-shots robusta).

    To be brutally honest, Padang coffee for years have not become the first thing to order because for me they are quite bold in taste and having extreme caffeine.

    However, both seemed more tame than common ones.

    They are bold, but their zero-acidity is stomach-friendly.

    Another special thing is, coffee in Marco is served with wine glass.

    Definitely traditional drinks but fancier.
