Roti Canai

The Roti Canai here was delicious. A simple dish, but we’ve had some poor versions of it both here and abroad, thankfully this was one of the better ones. It comes with a couple of flaky pieces of roti and a small bowl of curry. The perfect starter. The curry was flavourful and the roti nice and flaky enough to have something about it too.

BBQ Chicken Satay

Satay is a Malaysian kebab dish that is basically meat on skewers and with a famous peanut sauce or dip. That slightly sweet and nutty peanut taste is the prominent distinction between it and other meat skewer / kebab dishes. This is a sure hit wherever you get to be honest and it was no different here.

Hainanese Chicken Rice

A very simple dish with some simple components. Poached chicken, rice, chilli, raw garlic and ginger and some broth. All are crucial aspects. This famous Singaporean dish I had in the Kuala Lumpur airport (long story), but it was one of the best meals I have ever had. Delicious!  Unfortunately, that was the only time I had this dish.

How was it? Unfortunately, it didn’t hit the heights of what I had in Malaysia. The chicken was almost drenched in soy sauce and the garlic and ginger were just not strong enough. So, the search continues…
