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.

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.

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.

Have to upgrade our review from last year. Last year we were a bit disappointed. Service lacked…read more But this year it elevated itself to a rating of 5. We arrived after the lunch hour rush and only stood inline a few minutes. The place was still packed to the rims. We ordered: - Roti Canai - a plain roti served with a curry sauce and a sambal sauce. It arrived and it was beautiful. Wish we would have had it last year. It was piping hot, flakey on the outside and warm and soft on the inside. Neither of us could decide what to dip them in. The curry or the sambal. - Roti Kaya - roti stuffed with pandas and coconut. We opted for the savory dish versus the sweet dish and it also was served with curry sauce and sambal. It arrived right after the Roti Canai and was also warm and inviting. Could have been dessert. - Beef Satay with a Peanut Sauce - the dish was on the WOW factor. Some of the best beef satay we have ever had. Cooked through and almost like a jerky but very soft and not as chewy. We dipped in the peanut sauce that in itself could have been eaten with a spoon. We then wrapped some in the plain roti and dipped in the curry. Another winner. Service was great. Food arrived within a reasonable time. We were warned that the satay would take a little longer and it was really only a little longer. Glad it didn't deter our ordering it. Prices are extremely reasonable. No reservations taken. Just get inline and enjoy the atmosphere. Highly recommend.

We were staying right down the street at the Marriott and decided to order takeaway from this restaurant. There was only one hostess and she was busy juggling walk-ins, seating customers with reservations, and handling incoming calls. However, she was pleasant and relatively efficient. We ordered 3 items for a total of ~$60 USD: XO Chilli Prawn Cutlets Beancurd and Vegetables in Oyster Sauce Vegetable chow mein The portions are huge! The containers were literally packed to the brim. We had enough to feed 3 people for dinner and for breakfast the next day. Would definitely recommend!

Very nice Chinese/ Malaysian restaurant in the Circular Quay area of Sydney…read more They use Halal standards for food handling and prep. We dined in the upstairs portion of the restaurant ( which is tucked in a multi use building ). Service was friendly and attentive. Food was absolutely delicious. Fresh seafood. Fresh veggies. Portions were decent sized. They do have some pricing quirks to be aware of: There is a minimum spend per person and I believe it varies with party size. They charge a 10% surcharge on Sundays. Not sure if this standard in other restaurants but I doubt it. I'm mentioning it so diners on Sunday are aware. I liked the food enough that I just chalked it up to a vacation u expected expense. I'd eat there again if I had the chance. Notorious MD approved!

The freshest ingredients all lovingly chopped for you to see are jiggled together and ready in a steaming jiffy. The jumbo spring rolls are beyond delicious - not in a delicate spring roll way - think fat pastry and gloopy curry sauce. GORGE-ous. The best thing for me about this place though is the Chinese couple who run it; him on the wok, her on the counter. They are just about the sweetest people I've ever met. We've had many a heartfelt conversation over the years, though I confess I have resorted to nods and smiles when I've misheard over the sizzling of the woks and the general hub-bub. She probably thinks I'm a little strange as I smile at her tales of financial woe, which makes her all the more deserving of good fortune. A hard working couple who make simple, delicious food. The sort of people who should win the lottery. Maybe if you read this and are urged to go, they might just feel like they have.

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.

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.
