Angie's Malaysian Eatery

Angie's Malaysian Eatery Menu, Reviews, Photos, Location and Info - Zomato I'm a big believer in the idea that every restaurant does something good and something bad. And if you happen to order a dud, you shouldn't necessarily condemn the whole restaurant.Angie's Malaysian Eatery really exemplifies this.

We went tonight and fortunately I had researched online on Yelp and knew to order the K.K. Buttermilk Tiger Prawns. The other stuff my friends ordered were duds. Cheap duds at around $8.95, but still duds.

Roti Canai ($2.50 for 1 piece, $4.50 for 2 pieces)
  • I thought this was a really, really, decent roti canai. Very tender and light on the inside, nicely flaky on the outside, and definitely made fresh to order as it can come out piping hot.
  • The curry, unfortunately, wasn't as flavourful as some other places. It looks like very little curry, but for dipping, it's enough.
  • Their "two pieces" isn't quite as large as other places like Banana Leaf or Kaya Malay Bistro, but they charge $7 and here it's only $4.50.
  • Kinda torn about recommending it since the curry isn't as good, but the roti itself is very nice.

K.K. Buttermilk Tiger Prawns ($14.99)
  • The Malaysians among us are pretty sure "K.K." means Kota Kinabalu.
  • OMG this was sooooo good. The sauce is so rich and flavourful and tasty.
  • We asked for spicy. And it was spicy. But not in a way that flattened the other flavours. You can still taste the sweetness and richness of the sauce.
  • You can make a pretty big meal of this by also ordering rice or vermicelli (the latter being $2 for a heaping bowl) and mixing in SOME with the generous amount of sauce. Use only SOME because otherwise it becomes too diluted when spread over too much rice/noodle. You really want to preserve that rich, and excellent flavour.
    • TIP: 1 order + 1 order of rice, shared by two people = two $8.50 dinners!
  • I found the prawns fried enough that I could eat the whole thing, shell included.

2016-Mar-10 Angie's Malaysian Eatery K.K. Buttermilk Tiger Prawns

Other orders at the table included Laksa and Nasi Lemak.
The persons who ordered the Laksa felt the curry was too thin. The Nasi Lemak was terribly boring but only $8.95, so you could look at it as a budget meal for under $10. Also, extra sauce for the Nasi Lemak is $1.50.

They offer water and tea. I chose tea, and it turned out to be free.

If you go ONLY for the Buttermilk Prawns, and maybe the roti canai, this place is a winner.

Debit or cash only. Mandatory 15% gratuity for "large" parties of 6+.
Kitchen last call is 30 minutes before their rather early closing times. The whole neighbourhood has a rather early close, actually.

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 3

A picture from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. I can't remember why I had this couple in the picture, but I do vaguely remember this to be in London, on the first official day of the tour group getting together. Their insistence on my helping them take a picture caused the three of us to be late getting back to the bus. The local tour guide had a "rule" about lateness, that we had to buy chocolate to share with everyone. As it turned out, later in the trip, on at least two occasions, we were stuck on the highway on either a long commute or a traffic jam, and I had chocolate and chocolate-covered marzipan to share. About the chocolate-covered marzipan -- Apparently we were in Austria just as they were celebrating Mozart's birthday with special marzipans wrapped in foil with the famous composer's picture. I'm pretty sure it was Mirabell Mozartkugeln . Anyway, there were enough to go around the en...

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 10

The last of my pictures (at least the ones that survived the cheesy disposable cameras) from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. Below is the obligatory group photo. Not sure everyone's in it, actually. I'm pretty sure this one was taken by the tour director, Mike Scrimshire as I'm in the back row, on the right side.

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 9

More assorted couples on my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. An American couple who joked about being from "the land of the giants" -- and with good reason, because both of them were really tall! A cute Jewish mother-daughter pair who ducked out part-way to divert to Israel. I vaguely remember the issue of the daughter being an orthodox Jew was highlighted in France when, to make things easy, she just declared herself vegetarian for the wait staff. I also remember there was some logistics error in France because our party size was way underestimated or simply relayed incorrectly, and there was a shortage of food at dinner. Dessert came as an unopened can of yogurt. It did not seem like they tried to make it up to us later, either. Plus there was smoking every which way in France, and I had a helluva time with that. We were also in a hotel that seemed tucked away in the burbs, and not walking distance from anythin...
