"As Malaysian who is born and raised there I have to said food here almost authentic Malaysian food. I was amaze with sambal udang petai that is our classic dish in Malaysia and it’s not easy to master because when you cook sambal you have to separated oil from sambal we called it pecah minyak) and chef did very well. I am big fan of sambal petai udang it’s so hard to get one in USA but chef make it happen in Washington DC. Beef rendang was 10 10 with spices compliment each other and tender beef too. Ayam masak merah I would say maybe 7 10 for my liking because I can taste cardamom star anise quite strong for my taste buds but it’s still good . We order ayam goreng too and just hit the spot and salted egg duck yolk , that is how we cook in Malaysia. I order my nasi campur with coconut pandan rice and came together with regular rice. For dessert we order sago gula Melaka and Roti canai and custard dipping, oh that is the best part to finish our meals. So far this one of the best Malaysian restaurant I ever had in USA so far. Thank you chef for appreciate our food , it’s not easy to master Malaysian food as they are influence by Malay, Chinese , Indian, baba Nyonya peranakan. Chef really study about Malaysian food and how to cook from starch. I wish you have branch restaurant in California. I came Washington DC for visiting and I am surprised with Makan dc restaurant. I would like to try nasi lemak and roti canai but I will do when I come here again."
