| - I've been to Restoran Malaysia a few times, often ordering their Roti and Curry. Never found it to be anything phenomenal. Until recently my friend brought me here and STOPPED me from ordering curry again because that was apparently the safe way out and that I've been ordering the wrong things from this restaurant the whole time. Instead, we got the Singapore Chicken Rice, Indonesian Fried Rice, and the Nasi Lemak Malaka (coconut rice with 5 sides including pickled veggies, rendang beef, peanuts) and WOW--flavour explosion. I wasn't expecting much from the Singapore Chicken Rice since I've lived my whole life on Hainanese Chicken Rice, but Restoran Malaysia's Chicken Rice was equally as good as the best I've had around the area. The indonesian fried rice was also packed with savoury-salty-sweet flavours, but the spotlight goes to Nasi Lemak Malaka. That was probably the most unique dish I've ever had from this restaurant and the flavours were phenomenal; a little spicy/savoury from the rendang beef, balanced out by the sourness of the pickled veggies and onions, texture added by the peanuts, yummy creamy coconuty tasting rice, and an egg to finish it all off--perfection.
I'm so glad my friend stopped me from ordering curry again, because I now have a new spot to go to for Malaysian food!
