    Teh tarik.
    Deb P.

    Delicious bowl of our usual Assam laksa, vinegary, tamarind-y, sour mackerel fish soup with noodles, fried taofu-pi and all the herbal accoutrements. Outstanding. 5/5. Four pieces of prawn cake. Oh mmmmmmyyyy. First time having them here and they did not disappoint. 5/5. Teh tarik - standard. 3.5/5. Grass jelly drink - standard. 3.5/5. Service is perfunctory except for one Auntie who is very sweet to everyone.

    Hainese chicken rice and fried rice noodles

    This establishment is located in an independent building off Sheppard Ave East. The premise offers free on premise parking, and also easily accessible via TTC by bus. The service here is friendly, and the price is really fair for the quantity of food you're getting. The fried noodle dish was huge and had a lot of 鑊氣! The rice from 海南雞飯 was packed with ginger flavour, however the chicken was more dry. I'd def come back given its price point! Maybe the chicken will be better next time.

    Deep fried fish fillet

    This was my second visit to this place. This time I tried their very popular item roti and chicken curry and I was surprised how similar it tasted to Indian food. The chicken curry was very close to a traditional chicken curry we cook in Indian households but they added coconut milk which made it slightly different. Roti was basically our paratha. Still good though. But my favourite was their deep fried fish fillet. This was such a great dish. In a lot of places they give a lot less of the fish and more of the batter for deep fried fish but this one had a really good amount of fresh fish inside which was so tasteful. Loved it!

    Really good portions at this place. I had takeout and ordered two mains, more than enough for three. Ordered Char Kway Teow and although the flavours tasted more like Chinese beef fried noodle (flat rice noodle / ho fun) rather than the Malay version.

    This long-established spot, located in the heart of Scarborough, has clearly earned its place in the community. The fried chicken wings are to die for. On top of that, I found the pricing to be quite reasonable as well.

    Mee Goreng (with Shrimp, Squid, and Fishcake)
    Sheila N.

    Delightful people. Pricey; but delicious! My Aunt was raving about this place and she was right. Owner Fiona was helpful in suggesting Menu items that could be customized to your palate and spice level. We opted for take-out. Five stars for the food and the time it took to be prepared. Obvious love, care, heart, and soul has been poured into the business and it shows. Living in the US, authenticity can be difficult to find, but certainly not in the Toronto area. You have a concentration of cuisines, cultures, ethnicities, diversities, and backgrounds seemingly coexisting into a giant melting pot on literally every street corner and intersection. It is beautiful to see. We enjoyed the following (only managed to get two pictures - one of the Mee Goreng and one of the Beef Satay prior to eating): - Mee Goreng (with Shrimp, Squid, and Fishcake) - Indonesian Beef Fried Rice (the contrast of flavor in this dish was most notable). - Beef and Chicken Satay (the most tender and succulent skewers I have ever had along with a solid peanut sauce). - Beef Rendang (Perfectly spicy- not too dry and not too saucy). - Roti Canai (Flaky layers of goodness that ideally accompanied the dishes we had ordered). The variety of dishes was excellent! I would most likely dine-in next time only because the food was lukewarm by the time we got home to enjoy it all as a Family. There were six of us and plenty of leftovers. The spiciness and aromatics - combined with a rich depth of flavor really followed through for me and will be the reason I choose to dine here again whenever we are in town visiting Family.

    Cendol
    Canice M.

    This place serves up some delicious and authentic Malaysian food! We ordered the Cendol (drink), Chicken Skewers (comes with 6 skewers) and the Nasi Goreng. The Nasi Goreng was my wife's favourite - it was full of "wok hay" and packed with flavour. The chicken skewers were grilled perfectly and came with a rich, peanuty sauce. The Cendol was very authentic - of all the other places I've visited that had this drink, I would say this was the best - you could taste the smokiness of the palm sugar. The only reason I'm giving this 4 stars instead of 5 is because the interior feels a bit dated and could use a refresh. The service was reasonable - prompt in taking your order. What was neat was that they served some things, like the Cendol and Nasi Goreng, manually with humans, but used a robot to serve the satay. I'd definitely recommend checking this spot out!

    Fish cake

    Lunch is packed today Ordered Singapore Laksa and Mee Goreng, and Thai fish cake Food is great, service is good No parking in parking lot have to park by supermarket

    Nonya Fried Eggplant (front), Beef Rendang

    Close to authentic. We travelled over one hour in traffic to Scarborough to check out Gourmet Malaysia, as good Malaysian Singapore restaurants are hard to find in the GTA. Fortunately, this restaurant did not disappoint. A visiting student from Singapore and father who was raised in Malaysia accompanied us, so our ratings were unanimous based on authenticity and taste. In terms of ambiance, half the restaurant was simple and plain, the other half had chair slipcovers and table cloths for more formal occasions. It would have been better to be consistent with at least tablecloths across the entire restaurant to give it better ambiance. Service was fair. Our menu selections were based on both the happy face icons (popular and recommended) and traditional Malaysian/Singapore foods. We tried the following: Seafood, Tofu & Salted Vegetable Soup, Chicken Satay Skewers, Penang Char Kwei Teow (Fried Hor Fun with mixed seafood), Hokkien Mee (a type of saucy noodle), Nasi Lemak Coconut Rice served with Curry Chicken, Egg, Peanut and Ikan Bilis (dried fish), Crispy Butter Prawns, Hot Sizzling Chicken in Indonesian Style, Nonya Dried Eggplant, and Beef Rendang. While all dishes were tasty, the Indonesian chicken, curry chicken portion of Nasi Lemak, Nonya Dried Eggplant, and Beef Rendang were our favourites. I did not taste the coconut in the coconut rice of the Nasi Lemak. I would try the Roti Canai with curry chicken if I were to return, as almost every other table had ordered it. I would also try some of the other menu items that also looked interesting. There are one or two other Malaysian Singapore restaurants in the GTA, so hoping to visit them in the future and compare.

    Char Kway Teow
    Imelda M.

    Gourmet Malaysia is a family restaurant serving up authentic Southeast Asian, Malaysian, Singaporean, Indonesian and Thai, Halal food. Popular dishes include their curries, soups, rice and noodle dishes. I spotted tables ordering so many dishes including: Calamari, Sambal Prawns, Nasi Goreng, Beef Rendang, Hokkien Mee, Pad Thai, Singaporean Laksa, Seafood Char Kway Teow - all accompanied by a few orders of Teh Tarik (hot and cold), and desserts. This visit wasn't my first, though I recall ordering the Special Gourmet Malaysian Platter on my first visit and was very content with the choice. It would soon become a regular dining choice for friends and family gatherings. This time around, my friends and I decided to revisit the old haunt and share three dishes - Roti Canai, Char Kway Teow, and Nasi Lemak. * Penang Char Kway Teow looks deceivingly like beef rice noodle but don't be fooled, the taste is incredibly complex. The taste of the dish made here is bang on. That oh-so-good smokiness of caramelized rice noodles expertly prepared hawker-style is worth savouring every bite. * Nasi Lemak (Coconut Rice with Curry Chicken, Egg, Peanuts and Ikan Bilis). Often an excellent choice considering it's one of the national dishes of Malaysia. We grew up eating this dish and it often brings back fond memories. * Roti Canai (3 pieces of soft yet crispy, flaky roti served with your choice of curry). Maybe we should've ordered another one? We got the beef curry and it disappeared almost as soon as it arrived at the table by a robot server named YummyBot. Impressive, robot YummyBot. Now if only we can figure out how to tip the robot?

    The restaurant has many tables and a private party room as well. Food was good but not great compared to the one I visited in Vancouver ( only had Malay/Indo/Singaporean resto twice . Servers were friendly and attentive. Highlight were the chilli Chicken and roti canai.

    Gourmet Malaysia is one of our go-to place for Asian foods more importantly Malaysian and Indonesian cuisine. The place looks dated and service is crappy but the food were always great, authentic and prices were reasonable so I always recommend this place to families and friends. Decided to visit this restaurant again after a two-year hiatus of not coming here and was surprised to see so many changes. First off they renovated the place, it's more brighter and spacious now. Gone are the ugly, old restaurants booths and replaced with better looking chairs and tables. One part of the restaurant has tables and chairs dressed in a fancy way with white covers and bow sashes which I'm assuming will be for large special events. Another thing you will noticed is that there's a Robot which delivers your food and drinks to the table. You can also find this same Robot in some restaurants in Malaysia. But my biggest dissatisfaction from dining in this place is how the quality of the food went downhill and the food prices tremendously went up. I get it that there was a surge in food prices lately and I don't mind them raising the prices. What I do mind is I expect to still get high quality great tasting food for the price I'm paying which is not the case here. I ordered my favorite, Nasi Goreng Fried Rice with Seafood and was extremely disappointed. Very oily, bland and the umami flavour you normally find in Nasi Goreng is lacking in this dish. There used to be different seafoods in this fried rice but only found a few squids. So basically this is just plain Fried Rice and nothing more. Sliced cucumbers on top is also missing. Another fave dish I usually order here is Penang Char Kwei Teow. Somehow, this dish is now inferior in every aspect - the lack of wok hei, noodles clumping together, wrong taste and texture wouldn't even entice me to order this dish again. Would I return back, not a chance! If the inconsistent dishes and low food quality improves, then maybe I would reconsider coming back here.

    Malaysian | Singaporean | Indonesian | Thai | Non-LLBO | Closed Mon-Wed | Take Out & Catering | Banquet Hall COVID protocols in place Been here many times even before covid. Spacious restaurant ready for banquet hall events. They even have a mini mart to purchase snacks and seasonings. Service is good. Cantonese speaking. I just wish they served alcohol especially serving spicy food, I was definitely craving for some beer. Ikan Bakar (stingray) 蕉葉焗魚: Always order first because it takes 25 mins to make. The flesh of the fish is tender and falls off the bones and the bones are soft bones. I always order it when I'm here. Penang Stir-fry noodles with seafood 檳城炒貴刁 It reminded me of 乾炒牛河 without the beef. I was expecting more texture and different style of noodles. There weren't as many seafood, there were a few shrimps be calamari. Probably wouldn't order this again. Salt & pepper calamari 椒鹽魷魚: It was freshly fried, better than the HK styles. It doesn't come with much taste if you don't eat it with the chiilis but they did offer me sauce on the side that tastes kind of like chili paste. Overall I'd definitely come back when I'm craving for some comfort and heat. I just wish they served alcohol.

    "Singaporean Chinese Yusheng" by Kiss My Pans…read more What a wonderful way to celebrate Lunar New Year! Tossing Yusheng (Lo Hei) with the girls today for abundance, prosperity, and good relationships felt so special and meaningful. Throughout the incredible feast, we bonded with the host, connected with each other, and shared so many laughs. Honestly, what more could you ask for? We had an absolute blast! Thank you so much to Kiss My Pans for hosting such a fun and memorable event. It truly felt like being invited into your home for a dinner party, where we were warmly welcomed and treated like VIPs. And while every dish was impressive, the chili crab was the star of the night -- absolutely outstanding. The homemade sambal was equally unforgettable and packed with flavour. We came for the Yusheng and left with full hearts and even fuller stomachs!

Laksa was one the top dish to try in Singapore but it was too hot and idk why I didn't order it in Toronto during the cold... so I shall come back. Instead we got a bunch of items to share. The beef rendang and roast chicken rice were my top picks. The beef was tender and portions were generous; strong lemongrass flavour which I absolutely loved. The roast chicken rice was also perfectly seasoned and tender, paired nicely with the flavoured rice. I'd come back just for the roast chicken dish. The char kway teow was not shy of wok hei, a classic. Kaya toast was delish as always but wish the toast was cut thinner. I was looking forward to the roti prata and curry chicken, it was good but not great. The curry reminded me of Vietnamese curry. The prata was on the oily side but very flakey.

We were able to order right away and our drinks and ice water were brought out. Our food was brought out fairly quickly, all of it being hot. Roti is a must order item!

Service was attentive with the servers checking on us every so often and clearing empty plates away. When we were done eating, the server packed up our leftovers for us instead of just giving us containers. You can pay by card or cash, but just be advised that they do not accept $100 bills.

We had the chicken and shrimp Pad Thai and the Nasi Lemak Ayam Goring. We really enjoyed the fried chicken, coconut rice of the Nasi Lemak Ayam Goring, and the amount of spice in the sambal onion and anchovies. The noodles in the Pad Thai had a firm texture which we liked, but for me the sauce was a bit sweet. If coming to the restaurant from 6pm on a weekend, the parking lot is very busy and you could be circling for a parking spot and having to move around vehicles that are double parked for take-out orders.
