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!

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.

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.

Definitely recommend. It has the best hainanese chicken and hainanese chicken rice, chicken and…read morebeef satay, roti (though Malacca Straits is even better) and nasi goreng! I have never had a restaurant that was better in these things. The food comes out a bit slowly by the staff, and they are usually quite busy so you have to book ahead, especially due to COVID times, but the food is utterly delicious so I would recommend anyway! My family and I have gone to this restaurant for years, so for around 30 years or more. We're friends with the bosses and it's a family run business.

If you're gonna have a signature dish, make it the biggest, baddest, tastiest thing on your menu…read more Like the glorious King Prawn laksa. Awww yeah son, this thing is everything you want in a big bowl of chilli-laden delicious, and the key is in the broth. It's compex, with creamy coconut, wonderfully subtle fish flavours, and the warm sambal kick topped out with noodles, bean sprouts and giant, firm king prawns that are almost a meal unto themselves. They'll make it mild if you want, but you don't want that. You want your face to scream in delight, you want to singe your eyebrows off, you want your tone writhing around in throes of ecstasy. Get it as spicy as you dare. It ain't the cheapest going around at $16.90, but this is the North Shore so there's that. The curry puffs are super good, too, and you can buy the home-made sambal in little tubs to take away for $4. You're gonna want to do that. The ice cream at the end was just okay, but by then the battle was well and truly won.

This restaurant is no longer Jimmy's recipe, the new name is Hawker Star…read more I've eaten here several times, and everything on the menu is amazing. The laksa is spicy, flavorful and filled with protein. The beef rendan is fork tender and delicious, and the chicken satay is spicy, coconutty and absolutely delicious. If you want excellent, authentic Malaysian food, Hawker Star is % legit. 2nd floor of the Gateway, left off the escalator and all the way in the back. The restaurant is clean, the ambiance is casual and the service is fast. Prices are very reasonable, and portions are large.

I don't often work in the city, so I kind of stumbled on this place as part of the lunchtime crowd…read more A lot of local Indians were eating here, which is normally a good sign. I had a Butter Chicken, Mango Chicken, Naan and a Coke for $12.90. That's a bargain for down town Sydney. And the serving was massive! The taste was superb. 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. And you can even order a Jumbo Meal (5 different choices!) for $14.90! This place is great and I'll definitely come back.

I should preface this low score with a comment that people were queued here so there must have been…read moresome regulars. The two of us chose three dishes that did not come out remotely together. So while one of us minded a table and watched the food growing cold the other ran back and forward picking up the dishes as they became ready. The food was just OK. Singapore noodles did not have much of a curry flavour or really a flavour of any kind. The special fried rice had a sausage/salami that didn't really taste as if it belonged. The satays were OK. Not sure that what we got was what was advertised. Pretty unimpressed.

This was definitely the most air conditioned Hawker I've ever been to. At lunchtime this place is…read morepacked but at 7pm, we had one person in like ahead of us and our choice in table. The laksa was delicious. A large serving with plenty of soup and noodles and fried tofu. I appreciated that they offered shredded chicken, meaning I didn't have to chew around little bones. The broth doesn't have a seafood taste in any way, which i know some people don't like. All in all I was very happy with it and I'll happily return when my laksa craving strikes again.
