The laksa has lots of boneless chicken with a tasty curry broth. Tucked in a corner, I would recommend this tasty home cooked food for a small group of people.
Since reading a review by Ronnielui2003 a month ago on GJays I have had it bookmarked. Finally, today is the day as I'm out at Garden City and the restaurant is 5 minutes away. We arrive at lunchtime and the owner/chef comes out to explain the menu to us. Gordon is from Sarawak, Malaysia and is a new migrant to Australia. This restaurant has been operating for 7 months with help from his daughters. I am familiar with the items on the menu and for the three of us I order 4 dishes to share. Within 10 minutes the dishes come out in quick succession. The Char Kueh Teow was nice, served hot and spicy. The spices used in the Sarawak Seafood Laksa soup gave it a wonderful flavour but I found the seafood (five prawns) very much lacking. The Chicken Satay skewers were huge, more than double the size of most Asian restaurants and the satay sauce made from crushed peanuts was very good. The Gordon Chicken Rice was underwhelming as the poached Chicken was overcooked.... read more
Have been a couple of times now, the food is great, unpretentious, and reasonably priced. The Chicken Satay is Excellent. Gordon makes the peanut sauce himself from scratch. The service from Gordon and his family is friendly and fast.
The Snapper Curry Fish Head was the bomb! Comfort food man.
While I still and will always feel that Malaysian food is overpriced here in Australia, I do want to say that Kopitim is one of the better places to go to
