The cashier was frankly a bit confused about it, but I managed to get the right order in. They heavily advertise how fresh their vegetables are, and indeed, the diverse collection of thinly sliced vegetables was probably the highlight of my noodle dish, which was quite tasty. You can get it plain, but adding tofu, for the minimal additional cost, was well worth it as they did not skimp as some Australian places seem to with the stuff. It's a smallish place in an alley, and was packed even on a relative off night.

Also, they offer a great corkage fee at $1.50/pp for wine and no corkage for beer. The ambiance is definitely "buzzy" for lack of a better term. I think the crowds draws in that vibe.

I walk passed Taste of Melaka on our first night visiting Byron Bay for the Easter long weekend…read moreholiday. It was packed full with diners at 11pm. I wished I had gone back for their food on our second night so I could come back a second time to try the rest of their menu. Unfortunately we only come back on our last night (the 6th) as I thought it was another coastal town Malaysian restaurant with disappointing subpar standard (westernised, everything tasted too sweet) much like Asia Joe's. Taste of Melaka turned out to be the best Malaysian restaurant in Australia! I do not say this lightly as I was born and grew up in Malaysia. Although I have lived in Sydney for the last 21 years, I go back to Malaysia frequently and I am still very familiar with the authentic flavours of Malaysian food. I had Taste of Melaka's Roti Kosong (plain roti), Nasi Lemak with Chicken Curry and Seafood Char Kway Teow. The roti and Nasi Lemak tasted just like what we get in Malaysia. They are 100% authentic! They are even better than a lot of the places I have tried in Malaysia as they are not as greasy. They are perfect in texture and taste, which is light, crispy and fluffy. The coconut rice is definitely the best version of what I have tasted in Australia. It is the Indian version made from basmati rice, which gives a dryer, lighter, fluffier feel and the rice have looser grains with just the right amount of coconut milk. It is perfect to be scooped down with the chicken curry sauce and the crunchy peanuts, ikan billis (anchovies) and sambal. The flavours of Taste of Malaka reminded me of the countless nights I had supple with friends till 2 or 3 am at the warong and Mamak stalls (small family own street food stall, warong is Malay own and Mamak is Malaysian Tamil Muslim) during my high school time in country town Malaysia. The Seafood Char Kway Teow was also wonderful. Although it is not the Penang style with dark soy sauce we are more familiar with. The flavour is undoubtedly authentic Asian packed full of "wok breath" and the seafood (tiger prawns, calamari and fish balls) are so fresh and generous. If you told me that the best Malaysian you have ever had was the ever so popular franchise Malaysian restaurant - Mamak, in Sydney or Melbourne, don't get offended if I laughed hard at your face and tell you that they are not even authentic Malaysian in my book! I'll say stand aside Mamak! You are so overrated! I wish I could take Taste of Malaka to Sydney and visit them at least once every week... If you are after authentic Malaysian food, I urge you to pay Taste of Malaka a visit. I only wish I discovered them earlier and have a chance to try more of their dishes. I would certainly come back though when I visit Byron Bay again. P.S.: Roti needs curry sauce for dipping. If you order the roti, you need to order some kind of curry as the roti is not served with dipping sauce. It is usually come with a curry sauce in Sydney, or at least two dipping sources in Malaysia.

My gal pals and I had ordered the calamari, hoki fillets, australian prawns, and barramundi. Everyone was very pleased with their order and full by the end of the meal. Presentation deserves a mention. They make sweet potato chips and use them as a nice decor/top to some of the dishes. Plenty of chips were in the bowl if not too many. I would have liked two lemon wedges but then again, I LOVE lemon. Great place for lunch or takeaway and have on the beach nearby. Would definitely recommend it to someone who was trying to find a fish and chips place that is above average.

Contained: two LARGE pieces of battered barramundi, four calamari, two prawns, two oysters, two potato pancakes and too many chips to finish. De-li-cious.

Our friend ordered the veggie tempura which had every kind of veggie imaginable in delicious batter - cauliflower, corn, broccoli, zucchini, capsicum, mushroom, and more. The seating is limited, but there is patio space to watch the hordes of tourists passing by. BYO wine highly suggested as no liquor avail to purchase. Calamari was worth an order of its own.
