Limaa operates as a pioneering Muslim-owned cafe at Haji Lane that champions clean, healthy eating while creating a supportive community space for mothers and families seeking nutritious halal dining options. Founded by cousins Aidah Rauf and Zakiah Asmawi in 2017, this innovative establishment combines Instagram-worthy aesthetics with a meaningful social mission of making clean eating accessible while providing employment opportunities and support networks for mothers.
The menu showcases healthy fusion cuisine including Trio Pow with herb chicken, pulled beef, and aioli prawn toppings, beef rendang prepared without artificial enhancers, nutritious spirulina green bowls, and scratch-made aglio olio alongside traditional favorites like laksa goreng and satay goreng. Their commitment to clean eating extends to all salad dressings and sauces made from fresh ingredients without food enhancers or artificial flavoring.
What distinguishes Limaa is their comprehensive approach to community building, featuring a public breastfeeding room, lunch talks with successful mumpreneurs, and retail space for stay-at-home mothers' products. Operating with no GST or service charge while maintaining halal certification, Limaa represents the successful integration of healthy eating, social responsibility, and authentic flavors that creates meaningful dining experiences beyond just serving food, establishing them as a unique cultural anchor in the Haji Lane creative district.
