Ahong & Friends serve comfort food that doesn’t break the bank


One of the star offerings at Grub is the New York strip, which offers velvety soft meat that is tender to the touch and is perfectly seasoned.

The first thing that’s likely to strike you about Grub by Ahong & Friends is that it’s got a very interesting aesthetic. Large packs of tomato puree, cooking oil and even barrels of onion and garlic are on full display near the open kitchen.

Upstairs, the area outside the window is crammed full of bits and bobs – chairs, pieces of wood and the like. It’s a unique introduction to a restaurant that has been gaining traction and lots of fans for its reasonably priced, high-quality food.
