My daughter suggested this place but we were sceptical. It is located in a small strip plaza and from the outside looks like a dive.
Guess what - it's not! You walk it and are immedately taken aback. It is sleek and classy looking with a cool bar right at the front. The tables are not fancy - paper napkins, but clean and minimalist looking, not at all like a dive.
My daughter suggested the shrimp chips and peanut dip. It was good but nothing I would write home about. To be fair, I am told that they are very good there by people who know - it's just that I am not crazy about shrimp chips, I guess. My husband and I then ordered something I cannot pronounce. It had large flat noodles, bean sprouts, shrimps and was just a little spicy. My daughter ordered the Pad Thai. Both meals were generous in portion and very very good. As opposed to Chinese Food, this Malaysian Food is much lighter and more flavourful.
I would go back and will go back. The menu is huge so we will have to go back many times to try out different things. Based on what we already ate, I am confident that the rest of the menu will be delicious.
The drinks were interesting. They have no liquor licence - so pre-drink! I ordered iced lichi - excellent and my husband ordered iced honey lemon water - also excellent. Go figure, take some water and add honey and lemon and its good!
The shrimp chips came practically before we could even finish ordering them and the rest of the food came within five minutes. Funnily, the drinks took a while. Apparently they have several cooks but only one bartender. They also do take-out.
Bottom line - very good! Go!

This is my FAVOURITE Thai restaurant! I could eat here daily!
The food is fresher than fresh!
The staff is extremely nice and helpful!
The atmosphere is definitely upscale and romantic, with a constant buzz of patrons of all ages.
IF this were open 24/7...They would be busy for that time!
I suggest that you try it- they are working on an LLBO permit- but that really does not detract from the experience. ( Yes, I drink).
