L'avis du Guide Michelin
Is there ever not a wait at this friendly Malaysian café? Chef Kenji Tang has something of a hit on his hands, and day or night, the line to get in can be as dense as the takeout tickets that pile up on the front counter. Tang fills a void with a fairly succinct menu of well-known Malaysian favorites that stand out in a region known more for its Chinese restaurants. Everybody orders the tender Hainanese chicken, served with a trio of dipping sauces and a dome of seasoned rice. Chicken curry showcases Tang’s ability to layer finely tuned spices – order it with flaky, buttery sheets of roti canai. Best of all might be the char kway teow, flat rice noodles seared in a blistering hot wok and tossed with scallions, Chinese sausage and bean sprouts.
