Upon entering the Front Hall of the restaurant, guest will witness a Portrait of a Nyonya lady. Portraits are hung on the wall as a representation of the previous owner who once resided there or the possessions that belonged to the person in the portraits. The honorific name Baba, which translates to “gentleman,” is used for Peranakan men, whereas Nyonya, which translates to “lady,” is used for women. The Peranakans have a distinctive dress sense known as “baju kebaya” that was primarily influenced by Chinese and Malay cultures. In the past, Nonya Kebaya was a gorgeous, translucent, form-fitting embroidered blouse fashioned from thin cotton or silk and embellished with very skilled hand embroidery.
