I phoned in the order for pick-up (vegetarian roti without egg; $18.95 plus tax) and it was ready 15 minutes later. The kotthu was well-made, with plenty of curry leaves and a nice array of spices, without being too spicy. There were plenty of veggies (cabbage, onion, okra, green beans, carrot, and cauliflower), and plenty of shredded roti of course. I'd say it lacked a little salt but that's better than being over-salted. The portion was very large and filling. Far from the best vegan kotthu I've had but it's such a rare dish to find that I appreciated this very much. I would definitely return. Recommended.

I went there today with my friend for lunch & found a table really quickly, we got lucky. We ordered 2 noodle dishes, Mee Goreng - nice flavour & definitely can taste the "wok hei", the next noodle dish was my favourite, Fried Kuay Teow in egg sauce... Yumz! - It is rice noodle in a yummy egg sauce with fish cake, shrimp, sliced pork & loads of veggies served with a pickled green chili ( ask for soya sauce into your pickled green chillies) I never had a bad dish from there, menu is pretty extensive from Singapore Laksa, to noodles & rice dishes.

The resto is located on the food court in second floor of the mall, yah it is a fast food but good food. EATS: for my appetizer i got the malaysian roti with peanut sauce in other restaurants this one is called chenai, canai or Malaysian flat bread or roti paratha, a delish crispy flat bread it is actually an Indian-influenced flat bread dish and also famous in South east Asian Countries. It is so tasty specially when dipped into the sauce, its like a very thin pancake and with the blending of peanut sauce it is a perfect Malaysian appetizer.... My main dish was the beef brisket curry, it comes with a cup of rice, maybe around 6 chunk of meat tender with potatoes, very filling and for that price this is like a value meal. PRICING: I paid $16 for everything thats including tip and a bottled water....very affordable plus you get to walk in the mall after eating. Now that we are on Pandemic restrictions, It is not easy to dine in food courts due to limited availability of tables and the fact that mall is always crowded place..... I like this restaurant...the name really suits it....Malay Curry.... Note: This mall has designated smoking area IN ALL FLOORS....kUDOS....

We were the only customers in the restaurant so it was pretty quiet and empty. My friend got the Seafood Fried Rice. He thought it was OK. I got the beef chow ho fun which which is flat stir fried rice noodles with beef. It was also just OK. Both dishes were served with chili oil. I felt they could have added more seasoning to really make the flavors pop out. It's just not as tasty as I hoped it would be. It's a tad better than your random chinese food stalls at the food court. The food overall was not bad, i wasn't super disappointed with anything. It was cooked well at least. Our server was talkative and we felt taken care of. Shout out to Jeralyn for being a great server. 3 out of 5 stars based on this visit for the alright food.

Staff was friendly and helpful. To be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect. The day I went they had a Mui Choy pork belly bao on special (available Mondays and Tuesdays), but they were sold out. I went for their deluxe pork bao. It's like a burger sized xiaolongbao, with a small chunk of boiled egg and cube of spam inside. Decent taste, but definitely on the pricier side. Prices are individual. Something to keep in mind. Honestly it's not bad for a snack or a party box.

The hainan chicken was so juicy and flavourful and the rice that they cook in the chicken stock is amazing. The braised tofu was so juicy and the bok choy paired with it had a nice crunch. The flat noodles with beef was so good too and not super greasy. I definitely want to return to try different items on the menu.
