Several months back I was wandering down York Street when I just happened to notice that Jaipur Maharaja had closed and a Malaysian place was about to move in. Nice one. I never really made it to the Indian joint but something told me I’d definitely make it to Ipoh on York. It’s always good [...]

Taking a quick lunch in the CBD often makes me feel like it’s more of a chore than an enjoyable experience. Food halls are overflowing with humans shuffling between fast food this and fast food that so I make sure I avoid the peak times when taking a break at work. I recently discovered a newish little place [...]

The current ripple of new Malaysian restaurants opening in Sydney has been welcomed with open arms. My open arms. Petaling Street, More More Cha and Jaya Malaysian to name a few.

Sassy’s has been trading for around six months now and despite the fact I first ate there the day after they opened it’s taken me this long to bring it forward to being published before it disappears in the backlog. Better late than never, I say. The novelty has subsided at Westfield Sydney and as [...]

When Chinta Ria first came onto the scene back in the 90′s it introduced Malaysian cuisine to the mainstream at its prime waterfront location above Cockle Bay. The development in which it sits was the flavour of its time when at around the same time mega club Home opened its doors and alfresco bar Pontoon (beneath [...]

When I was in Brisbane visiting my family recently my sister suggested we try a Malaysian place she has driven past countless times, yet never bothered to drop in. Her kids were on school holidays so our gaggle descended upon Malaysia Makanan for lunch before I headed off to the airport to fly home.   [...]
