This place was great. I walked in here one night shortly after landing at YVR and I will never forget it. It was my first few hours in BC and this was right at the yaletown stop. I order about $20 of food for myself. The girl was great, a cute asian that talked like an australian. I bought the laska and some desert with little balls in and some other rolls and stuff. I never had this kind of food before. It was so good and different from what I’m used to. I took it back to my hotel and ate it for 2 days. When I saw the pic of the store it brought back memories of being there. A+

The MOST disappointing Malaysian Curry I have ever tasted. It is not
“curry”, it is a mixing of pasta sauce with chili and tomato sauce. Real “Malaysian curry” does not have beansprouts and chopped bellpeppers in it. Yet they put a whole bunch of those that you don’t see any meat. There is not even 1/3 of a small chicken breast in it. Worst with fresh bellpeppers! And they charge $11 for that. The owner or boss should just use the packet ready-to-cook curry paste, and that would taste much better than what they have now. For anyone who has never tried the real Malaysian food, do not let what’s served in this fresh bowl fool you because the real Malaysian or even the half Malaysian food tastes much better than this. What a disgrace to Malaysian and Singaporean.

I must check out the local Asian groceries if they sell Calamansi concentrate juice here. Garnishing the laksa with beansprouts, carrot and red pepper is so Yaletown LOL; sure bean sprouts are some times added; but laksa without cilantro ….. ?
I’d rather have the cucumber slices with the beef sate to clean the palate than sitting at the bottom of the water jug. Do they throw them out every time or recycle them? Not a good idea to keep customers guessing.

Decided to give this place a try after walking past it numerous times. Lovely aroma as I walked in, ordered the roti and mee goreng. Best roti I’ve had, hands down. Will be back for sure.
