If you are after a comprehensive Malaysian menu for very reasonable prices this is a great choice. We had the nasi lemak (big and delicious), belachan okra (spicy and good) and the roti chanai (oily, not so marvellous). I would have liked dessert but that lot was enough to fill the two of us. It's a cheap and cheerful kind... More

Tucked away in this narrow (pedestrian only) lane in Chinatown, C&R Cafe offers a wide selection of Singaporean/Malaysian hawker fare - including bubble tea and teh (tea) and kopi (coffee) tarik. The portions are large and some items e.g. the Singapore laksa (rice vermicelli in a rich spicy coconut broth) is good for an ingredient-challenged London-based offering. However, the Ipoh... More

Tucked down a narrow lane just outside Chinatown, this small restaurant offers cheap, authentic Malaysian food. I am partial to the nasi lemak, but all the dishes we have tried have been good. We regularly go back and are always pleasantly surprised with the final bill. The service is function, but quick. Don't expect a warm welcome, but do expect... More

My wife is from Singapore and this is where we go when she needs a fix of 'local food'. I love the Laksa and the Char Kway Chow.

I stumbled to this cafe many years ago and since then, I always make a point of visiting this cafe. As a half Chinese half Malay person who has lived in England for 15 years, eating at this cafe reminds me of the chinese food i have eaten in malaysia. One very important this to say is the food quality... More

forget the 'back kitchen' setting and enjoy in really authentic Malaysian food that is served with an amazing speed and for a very democratic prize

We were taken here by my brother in law who knows London well. The cafe itself looks pretty cheap and a bit tatty, but it was very clean (loos included) service fast, food very good. The veggie choice I had was not the best, (Nasi Goreng, as it was very dry) but my hubby and bro in law adored their... More
