Lion City serves a mix of Malaysian/Indonesian/Singaporean food. We were in Mississauga for a day and I was craving randang so I convinced everyone to come here. The restaurant is owned by a very nice, old couple giving this place a warm and welcoming feel. We actually had two dinner plans for the night and this was part 1, so we needed to keep the food quantity to a reasonable level.
We got:
Beef Randang
Laksa Lemak
Mee Soto
Wan Tan Hor Fun
Fried Shrimp Wontons
The randang was probably best among the 5 dishes we ordered. During my visit to Malaysia, I had randang almost every day so I'm a bit spoiled but it was decent. The beef was cooked tender and the curry itself wasn't bad. I didn't love my cousin's laksa lemak which I found to be a little bland. The wan tan hor fun was not a dish I've had before. It seemed like a version of shrimp with lobster sauce but with the addition of flat rice noodles. Overall, I found the food to be decent but I wasn't blown away.
I did want to try their nasi lemak as well but we needed to save space in our stomachs for dinner part#2
We just had so much to eat
And miles to go before we sleep.
