| - A-OK. Basically, this is the Subway for noodles and rice.
First of all, let's figure out how to actually get here. There won't be a direct entrance on Bay Street, despite the address. You can either a) enter through Temperance Street (on the west side of Bay Street), or enter through 350 Bay Street, go down the hall, and enter the restaurant through doors you'll find on your right.
Second, the food. Like I said, it's like Subway - it's a casual joint. You 'build your dish' according to preferences set out in the menu. It's a step by step process. You choose a) your type of noodle or rice, b) your protein, and c) your sauce, and toppings. On my visit today, I purchased the Wheat Noodles on Malay Sauce, with Tofu as my protein.
Overall, while portion size is great, I didn't find the food anything spectacular. I actually found it quite salty, and the sauce itself, while doused in spices, didn't really have much dimension and felt really plain. Because of convenience, I'll probably be back again since it's such a short walk from work, to but it wouldn't be my first choice in the area. Decent Asian comfort food in the Financial District, but not the best.
With tax, I paid $12.07 for my order.
