It was our last stop and we were so tired on our drive that we didn't get to explore it enough. But I was glad that I found this gem. We were walking around and we smelled the aroma from this area. It's a giant food court. They have all kinds of asian foods from Vietnamese to Thai and everything in between. The prices were fair and food was being cooked in front of your eyes.

This is a must-visit local place to experience authentic food. I was impressed at the variety of…read moreAsian food, but the downside is that it really does have the quality of a food court. I wasn't sure if the tackiness was a part of the design or lack of care. Would definitely come back and take people here for the vibe, but eating here feels optional.

The atmosphere alone; with bathrooms funky surprises, tables with awesome posters, and random memorabilia around the space creates so much fun! I explored all over, and got to meet the local cat who hangs out. With the view across the street, they probably didn't need to do anything and the place would be amazing, but they really add to the beach/water feel. The staff is super friendly, welcoming our tour group with open arms (granted they knew our tour guide really well), but we got a breathtaking window view, and the kindest treatment. We got milkshakes (chocolate banana and coffee) they tasted so fresh, like they handpicked bananas and shaved in gourmet chocolate; like they poured in iced coffee. So yummy I slurped every drop. For a meal I got the scorch-o-rama breakfast; so much meat! and the Wellington special brown sauce gave it a good tangy taste. The mushrooms were grilled to yum 10/10, I wanted to ask for more. My husband got the Arnold Chowder with large chunks of seafood. So fresh it was as if they left and caught them while we barely waited. (True this and the milkshakes didn't pair that well on our tummies later, but worth it!)

This is a franchise chain for Malaysian food owned by A Malaysian started in 2006. It now has…read morebranches in Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan, China, South Korea and even in the USA. So can a franchise chain have good Malaysian food? Well this one is not bad for a franchise business. We tried their Hainan Chicken Rice, the Nasi Biryani Special with fried chicken, roti bom (sweet version for desert) and prawn Mee soup. All were very tasty except that the Penang Prawn Mee soup was somewhat watered down. As we would say... the taste was too adjusted for the western palette. Needed more "heako" or prawn paste! The unfortunate thing was that when I picked up our order, I did not check to package and found that I had taken Bill's take out order! Called the restaurant and they apologized for the mix up and remade my order at no extra charge. That left us with Bill's dinner choices as extra! He ordered the roti with chicken tandoori, seafood curry Mee or laksa noodle soup and paparich special Nasi Lemak. Wow! We were set with Malaysian food all the way through the next day. Food was just great! Thanks Paparich!

Knowing that the restaurant closes at nine we arrived at 8. No mention or any feeling of rush by the possible manager of the facility. Afterward it all started! As we hand over the list of the food request this employee tells us the dessert i.e. ice cream will be in with your food as the kitchen closes at 8:30. Okay we agreed. Desert comes in within 5 minutes (after two back to back inquiries of the ice cream flavor). We finish the desert. 10 minutes into it food is still not on the table but the bill has been sitting there! The other employee goes after our food when he sees the empty dish... Food comes in finally, satay was not the best but the chicken curry was okay... not a great experience even tho the employee who noticed the mix up of the order tried to be apologetic! Next time I'll need to observe negative reviews on Yelp!
