Always looking to try something different, I found myself at Pak Hailam Kopitiam seeing what…read moreMalaysian food was all about. Service was quick. I was there for an early dinner and there were not many other people there. I had some type of sweetened hot tea that was very tasty. I can't remember what It was called. For dinner I settled on what I think was the Kampung Mee Goreng and I chose seafood. It was a fried noodle dish. I could smell it when they started cooking it and my mouth began to water. It smelled good. The food did not disappoint. It was a little salty for me but there were very good flavors in this dish. I have become a fan of Malaysian food.

This Malaysian restaurant is located near the river on Church St. and across from Bay Vista. I had…read moreChar Kway Teow which came with two different types of noodle and had lots of flavour from the wok. Also tried a Sambal Fish dish which was also very tasty. Prices are very reasonable and portions are good! The restaurant is also very spacious.

Opened up 3 weeks ago, the wife & I decided to pop by as we were craving Malaysian food…read more The food was delicious, the curry beef & the roti was on point! Even though we were full, we decided to give dessert a go. We ordered the sticky rice pudding & the kuih ketayap (pandan crepe, coconut & ice cream), both were superb. The staff were exceptional, very friendly & cheerful. You can really tell that they want you to enjoy the food & have a great time there. Makes it easier that it's BYO, so bring along your favourite & relax. We'll definitely be coming back here & supporting a great local business!

OUTRAGEOUS It has…read morebeen a few months since this new branch opened back in Sept. I thought the "teething problems" might be gone by now....I WAS WRONG. Saturday 2pm - Went into the restaurant, placed my order at the cashier and I was told that the wait would be 30 mins. WHY? "There is only one chef in the kitchen" Seriously? One chef working on a weekend???? I was hungry, homesick...so I said fine. The pathetic small plate of Char Kway Tiao was a disappointment. Perhaps the ONLY chef was burnt out from the endless orders, but there was no "wok hei" to the noodles, portion was small and ......it did not taste like char kway tiao ! :( Someone can take the dukedom from me.

Hmm I am not sure why this got such scathing reviews from the other two i read, sure its not going…read moreto blow your mind but it isn't a bad place. The prices are good and the service has always been fast when I go there. To the person who complained about them only having one chef on a Saturday, this is explained by the fact that most of the business this place gets is from uni students during the week, a lot of campus outlets aren't even open on weekends so that fact that this one is is a bonus. The food I have had was all pretty decent, sure i have had better roti and nasi lemak, but I have also had worse, The brekkie was tasty the few times I had it but I haven't had it in a fair while so i can't be sure how it is now. All in all, a nice little place to grab a bit when you are on campus without breaking the bank.

The Babi pongteh wasn't that outstanding though, it was good, but nothing too special. Roti was very good, fluffy and buttery.

Well coat me in sambal and call me spicy, there's a new Malaysian restaurant just down the road…read morefrom me and I don't know what its name means but it's fun to sound out phonetically. Berempah. See? Swung past for one of their lunch specials, got the $9.90 vegetarian curry (with a hit of sambal on the side, natch). Welcome to flavourville, population: your homeboy me. The curry is made on lentils with big steaming hunks of potato and eggplant, there's tomato and carrot in there, and coriander and chilli. I'd actually eat it just as a soup but I love rice so much I'll never look a gift rice in the face if someone is throwing it at me. I'd just catch it in a bowl and now it's my rice. These guys better get used to seeing me at lunchtimes on my phone.

One of the few restaurants that open early, at 5:00pm. With young kids it was nice to be able to…read moreeat early. The service was pretty good and the portions reasonable. Food tasted good. The kids had satay chicken and spring rolls followed by deep fried battered squid. I can't help but compare them to the Salt & Pepper Squid served in the Qantas First Class Lounge in Sydney. They taste just the same! The Fried Koay Teow was a little pale but pretty good. The specialty of the house, crispy skin pork in special sauce was good but a little too oily. I could not eat too many pieces. The curry chicken with Roti was ordinary. Sambal Kankong was passable. There was no iced Kopi, so I settled for iced milk tea. This was extremely sweet but tasted okay when you add a bit more water.

Easily the best "fast" Indian food I've eaten. They have many Indian curries as well as Malaysian staples such as Rendang and even Murtabak.

Don't be shy as you may end up sharing a table with others. When we arrived we were at the start of a rush as the line developed behind us with an already full restaurant. Luckily we managed a spot sharing with a family of 5. We ordered their Char Kuay Teow and Ais Batu Kacang. And the family ordered Hainan Chicken Rice and Fish Head Curry. Smells really good. There was an interesting mix of customers from Thai, to Malaysian, to Indonesian. Mixed in with the a couple of locals. It took a while for our food to be served. So it left me thinking that he forgot our order... Finally it came! The Char Kuay Teow was pretty good - KL style. Slightly spicy but oddly with chicken, no Chinese sausage or clams. Regardless, it was tasty. It took a while for the drinks to come out as well. As the kitchen is pretty small. So be patient!
