Discovered such a delicious hidden gem in Chinatown, Brooklyn — an authentic Malaysian spot that truly surprised me in the best way. I ordered the Nasi Lemak and WOW. Total flavor bomb. The rice was fragrant and perfectly cooked in coconut milk with pandan, and every bite had layers of flavor. It came with spicy sambal, crispy anchovies (ikan bilis), roasted peanuts, hard-boiled egg, and fresh cucumber — the balance of savory, spicy, crunchy, and creamy was incredible. The shrimp lo mein with veggies was absolutely delicious, and the chicken satay skewers with curry sauce on the side tied everything together perfectly. Comfort food at its finest — especially on a cold, rainy night. Service was great — genuinely kind and sweet — and everything was reasonably priced. Definitely recommend if you’re looking to try something flavorful and authentic. I’ll 100% be back.
Cozy small restaurant that has a long history of serving excellent food to its local community. My friends have eaten here since they were little kids eating here on a school trip and now they are still eating here in their 20s. Outside of their significance to the local community, the food is incredibly delicious. Each dish is seasoned well and has a smoky wok flavor. The customer service is also very good and we received our dishes fast.
Overall a solid 3 on food. 4 on service - super friendly and a 2.5 on aesthetic… it has seen its days and needs some updating. Very tight space, sticky table and could be cleaner. Food wise, some solid items including the taro nest (surong burong), satay chicken, lady fingers with shrimp… and the morning glory. The Hainan chicken could be smoother, the satay beef less chewy… would skip on the sautéed tofu, stingray and pineapple fried rice.. the roti was also not good. But I can see their regulars enjoy their dinners here bc of the family friendly atmosphere. If you’re in the area, a good spot for dinner.
