M's Food Find #81

Quite a rare miss on the May's culinary adventure in Perth this year. Mahsuri Satay Restaurant in East Vic Park along Albany Highway. We stopped by for lunch one hot spring day and quite sad to see only one other couple in the restaurant.


Ordered a jug of bandung - rose syrup drink. I love bandung and was really happy to have had it. It came with sweet corn in it which was abit weird but cool for the hot day.

The restaurant's ONLY saving grace and perhaps why they named it so. Their lamb satay were nicely grilled and tender. Comes with onions, cucumbers and ketupak, traditional!

Sam's laksa was lukewarm and very very bland. Tasteless and the gravy is kinda like coloured water. Yeuch.
My mee rebus looks good but equally tasteless. I didnt even finish it. Service took pretty long for an empty restaurant and very disappointing when the food served finally was quite horrid.

They didnt have fan or air-con switched on! So we were kinda sweating and NOT enjoying our food. No prizes for guessing I wont be returning anytime soon.

Till my next food find, Mayy xo

M's Food Find #47

MORE FOOD! Yes, I just uploaded a boatload of photos for different posts just waiting to be editted. However, I realised they are mainly closet and foodfind posts. HEH.

Anyway, this Malay cuisine restaurant was a rare find for me. Down in East Victoria Park here in Perth, Rasa Nonya is just across from Macca's and near Supercheap Auto.

Prices are pretty reasonable.



Jeanette ordered this Malay curry dish which really looked good. And I know their curry is good.

Nasi lemak is good with the yummy sambal!

My order of sambal fried rice which is too big a portion for me but it was good nevertheless with this spicy hint after each mouthful.

Curry laksa noodles ordered by Sam who said it was one of the more popular dishes. It is good I must agree except I don't like thick yellow noodles. Another place that does good laksa is Tenten down in Karawara, Waterford Plaza.

Ordered the fried tofu, sweet chilli is always good with fried tofu!

Oh yes. And a glass of Milo Dinosaur to wash it all down. Truly Singaporean/Malaysian style! It is just iced Milo with Milo flakes. But oh so good.

So for some authentic Malay food that will remind you of home, head on down to this small unpretentious restaurant with good local food.

Till my next food find, Mayy xo
