    Tom yum, shrimp and chicken, with extra spice is an amazing way to open your pallet for their incredible rendang (Malaysian pot roast). Be sure to ask to include potato with the dish as well.

    I really like the Thai food here. Try the Pad Thai (order it spicy or it's too sweet), Hot & Sour soup, and Rendang. They're all delicious. Even the fried rice was on point!

    Pad See U & Malaysian Fried Rice are great choices! Malaysian Chicken Curry is also yummy if you like some sweetness to your curry (not spicy tho). also read my warning tip.

    Stay away from the pad thai... overly sweet and saucy. The Singapore rice noodles, on the other hand, are great - spicy, oily and flavorful.

    Warning: If you order take out, make sure you have all your items or you'll be dealing with unapologetic staff.

    Go for the Pad Thai, but be sure to ask for it spicy or else it's overwhelmingly sweet.

    Pad Thai is excellent. Needs a little chili sauce to bring up the heat, but definitely worth trying.
