The decor of this subterranean hideaway may be Gilligan's Island meets Kon-Tiki, but the voluminous menu has Malaysian treasures to spare. And though menus with photos are usually cheesy, the binder here is quite helpful since Malaysian cuisine is lesser known than, say, Chinese or Japanese. Sticky rice with minced shrimp and chicken, okra and eggplant curry with tamarind, and crazy salads like the rojak (tofu, peanuts, egg, and shrimp fritters) are among the stars on a roster with dozens of choices. And though the dining rooms are on the smallish side, the place is a hit with groups because of its rock bottom prices and the lively communal dining approach.
