**vegetarian review**…read more I walked in here for a late lunch and was immediately seated. I ordered the vegan laksa. I hadn't had laksa before. The food was so damn good. The tofu puffs were awesome! The tofu skin wraps were delicious. The flavour was just perfect. The quality is really good as well. Also minor note - 12.5% service charge was added to my order by default.

We had 5 people but waited about 30 mins and got seated downstairs. It was busy but it wad also a Friday night. 3/5 Hainese chicken rice - the sauce was definitely needed since the chicken was bland.

The roti canai was excellent -- perfectly flaky, light, and just what we were hoping for. The curry it came with had pleasant chunks of potato that added a nice heartiness to the dish. The Hainanese chicken itself was decent, but what really stood out was the broth that accompanied it. The broth elevated the dish entirely and tied everything together beautifully. Service was very friendly, and there was plenty of seating even on a weekend afternoon. Definitely a solid spot if you're craving Singaporean/Malay comfort food.

After scanning the menu in the window and pix on Yelp (Thanks Yelp!), we stepped inside and ordered up a variety of dishes. All were excellent, including the canonical Hainanese Chicken Rice, which was prepared to perfection with the requisite accompaniments. Be sure to get the STEAMED chicken version of the Hainanese Chicken Rice, as they (and others in London) also offer a pan fried version, which must be a UK thing! Friendly service in a small cozy place right around the corner from the Tube station. I have no issues recommending this place!

While I thought the hor fun was good, I thought the mee goreng was executed better in terms of flavor and style, so Next time, I think I'll stick to Malaysian dishes like char kuey teow or mee goreng! It has a lot of seating so it's very comfortable to sit and chat here without queueing on a weekday evening. Was highly recommended singaporean students in the area. Their nasi lemak is their special!

I've noticed that asia really loves corn. As in, instead of fries, they genuinely go- 'would you…read morelike corn in a cup with that burger?!', at least in malaysia when I went. So, it made sense for me to order the original melted butter and corn pancake with peanuts , and it was quite yummy. It's definitely not ones for those with sweet teeth because, it's more savory sweet. I also got talking to the store owner who told me that my check in offer expired but he'll get me a discount anyways, the nice people they are. They were also offering samples of their black glutinous rice pancake which was sweeter, I definitely think it might have been a bit nicer than the original. Also, corn + flour/ rice+ flour. CARB CENTRAL- but it's okay, it's winter and we need to carb up to warm up. LOL. (+ hit the gym too. LOL) I'm definitely heading to their store near china town soon, apparently, they also teamed up with roti king to bring roti cenai to the capital. AND I HAVEN'T HAD THAT IN YEARS.

The cellular reception was quite poor there, but they do offer free wifi :) I ordered the kari laksa, which was delicious! The broth was rich with a nice spicy kick, and the noodles were perfectly cooked and chewy. I really liked the texture of the tofu puffs, which also carried the curry flavour nicely. The shrimp tasted really fresh, too. I also had the kaya sweet roti, which was a lovely, light complement to the laksa. The roti itself was nicely crisped, and the kaya jam was creamy and not too sweet. I'd definitely recommend giving this a try! I love milo so I tried the milo ice drink -- very yummy but expectedly so, nothing too special. Price point was very good for the portion size and quality. I would love to come again to try some other classic dishes (the char kuey teow on the table next to mine looked amazing!).

They spoke Malay, was able to carry on a conversation with them. The cafe was packed & the 2 serving staff were so polite . We ordered Nasi Lemak with beef rendang.

My friend had recommended trying the singapore laksa, and I'm grateful that I did -- it was fantastic! The portion size was sooo big, with a huge helping of yummy rice noodles. (I didn't know laksa came with rice noodles sometimes -- think I've only had it with egg noodles before.) The variety of ingredients -- shrimp, fish cakes, tofu puffs, chicken, and more -- were all delicious, and the healthy level of spice added more of a kick than i expected. I also ordered a teh tarik, which was nice. Nothing too remarkable; it tasted very authentic. Overall price point was very reasonable, and the service was prompt and friendly. I really like the feeling of this restaurant being somewhat tucked-away in a side alley -- makes it feel like a small escape from the relative bustle of the central Chinatown neighbourhood. I will definitely be back to try some of their other dishes.

So, I've been coming here for many years, but frankly with a large gap of years in between. Was…read morereally hankering for some Malay Cuisine, and this was feeling like a nostalgia trip. The restaurant has been around since the late 80's and somewhat hidden down an alleyway off Chinatown/Leicester Sq. I ordered the Hainanese Chicken Rice, that I had there many times before, in what now feels like a former lifetime. Unfortunately on this occasion it was a little bit disappointing. Perhaps because I'm not of the origin of food that they serve, they palmed me off with 2 pieces of chicken breast meat, with a fork and spoon of course in order to add to the debacle. For those who know this dish swill understand that the best part is the leg meat, on the bone, that becomes somewhat gelatinous, and somewhat undercooked when it is immersed in ice quickly after cooking. Unfortunately I didn't get any of this, and the breast meat a little overdone. Service was a bit dull and rather unenthusiastic.
