The nasi lemak is the best! sure will come back back soon!

Don't know why I didn't try this sooner. Small spot, inviting and super tasty

The food was GREAT!! Will definitely be going back. Thank you again

Tucked away in Hillsbourough is this hidden gem. The menu is pretty straightforward and has all the signature Malaysian dishes. <br/ <br/ The prices are reasonable and the portion sizes are decent. The curry Laksa was full of flavour and had that authentic Malaysian taste to it. The teh tarik was delicious although I only wished it was a larger cup.

I love a good find and this one took a bit of a drive to get to but it was a great idea to gather with Singaporean friends in this small hole in the wall restaurant in Hillsborough.<br/ <br/ What I liked: <br/ 1. Unpretentious and unfussy, you are there for the food not the fancy ambience or cutlery so don 't expect any. The place seats about 15 to 20 (which would be a squeeze). <br/ <br/ 2. Menus are printed on A4 size paper and comprise Chef 's Special, Fried Noodles, Rice, Noodle Soups, Snacks and Hot and Cold Drinks. Exceptional on the menu were the $6.50 Nasi Lemak Bungkus (coconut rice with a fairly spicy ikan bilis or anchovy sambal, half a boiled egg, peanuts beautifully wrapped in a layer of banana leaf and paper. We also had the chicken rice which was pretty decent because for $13.99 it came with a bowl of soup, sliced cucumber and a generous amount of chicken rice chilli sauce (that makes the dish). The fried kway teow was served stir fried with prawns, clams, egg, bean sprouts, chives, also plated on a banana leaf which made it look quite authentic. You can choose the level of spiciness of all your fried noodle dishes. On top, it being breakfast, we each had a Kopi 'O ' with milk, the two layered variety with the condensed milk sitting at the bottom of the cup just the way I like it. <br/ <br/ 3. Halal, manned and prepared by Malaysians, we overheard the happy breakfast chatter of a few other local Malaysian and Singaporeans who had obviously heard about the place via word of mouth. <br/ <br/ 4. Reasonably priced for a no frills menu. Hot drinks start at $3.50, nasi lemak bunks takeaway is $6.50 and noodles start at $11.99 whilst their signature nasi lemak which comes with chicken rendang is $10.99. There are also snacks like chicken nibble (12 for $10), mini curry puffs $6 for 5 pieces, a variety of Spring rolls and Roti Canai (2 pcs for $8.99). <br/ <br/ In these parts, word travels fast when there is good food to be found.<br/
