  • It was a trip down the memory lane as I visited Restoran Malaysia in more than 4 -5 years. This was a go-to lunch spot for my colleagues and I when I used to work around Leslie/16th. They used to serve up excellent lunch specials both in quality and quantity. The food was always consistent and service, just as courteous. I happened to be in the area with my sister who had never tried the restaurant so we decided to pop in for a quick lunch. Since we got there a little early, the usual lunch crowd hadn't packed in yet. But the first thing that greeted us was a sign on their main entry saying, "cash only." Really? Hmm.... This was not good. At least in my books, when a restaurant starts accepting cash payments only, there's something going on there. Despite my growing reservation, we sat down and ordered Gado Gado, Singaporean laksa and a curry ayam to share along with a warm soy milk and a fruit shake. The Gado Gado arrived with a gigantic mound of shrimp chips (made in house, I'm guessing) that were just great. Perfectly crunchy and perfectly savoury. Sitting prettily under the yummy chips were sliced cucumber, jicama, bean sprouts and boiled eggs (slices) all topped with generous serving of mashed peanut sauce. I enjoyed the salad but felt like there was something missing though. Some heat from a chili, perhaps? The generously portioned out miki noodles came in a square bowl topped with shredded chicken, fish cakes and other veggies bathing in a rich, spicy coconut broth that was perfect for such a chilly early winter day. The laksa packed a nice heat and the broth, although rich, hit the spot perfectly. The ayam curry looked ok but the chicken breast pieces looked dry to me. I didn't get to try the curry as I was trying to finish my gigantic bowl of noodles. To finish our meal, we opted to share Kek lapis and this was probably the worst part of our meal. The "thousand layer cake" was flavorless, dry and just not good. They served us four small squares of the cake and we left 2 on the plate. I would say our experience today was not as good as I remember the restaurant from previous visits. Considering I now live some distance away, I doubt I'd go out of my way to eat here. Who knows? Maybe next time, I can ask my Indonesian mother-in-law to accompany me for some honest reviews of their dishes.
