The taste is GOOD and pricing is REASONABLE and most importantly the restaurant near to my hotel which is location wise.

Overall, it was extremely satisfying with an affordable pricing.

The most important thing I need to mention is please prepare some higher SPF PA++++ sunblock as the sun rays here is super strong and the weather here is super super super HOT.
I still get a minor sunburn although I've apply SPF 130++++ PA on my face and body before going outdoor and constantly re-apply after 1/2 hours.
No joke, please protect yourself if you don't want to be a charcoal.

That's all what i have been experienced in the short 2 days 1 night in Pangkor.
I hope this post will help you if you plan to visit Pangkor.
Bye bye. Happy holidays !
