Mamak Botak Perth - Lynwood

Love the mamak Maggie mee goreng. But take note it's Singapore style not Malaysia style. Teh-Tarik was good too. Definitely will be back for more.

Food 7/10<br/ Service 8/10<br/ Good casual dining. Dishes are spicy and aromatic. <br/ <br/ Again, usually I’ll try out places to eat a couple of times before jumping to a conclusion. Mamak Botak is relatively new. Tried their Nasi Lemak with curry chicken and lamb shank briyani on my second visit. Both times I had their teh tarik, both times it is good Note not made from instant powder). <br/ <br/ The nasi lemak is a simple classic rice cooked in coconut milk, crunchy anchovies, boiled egg and cucumber. Sambal is aromatic and spicy. Chicken curry is alright, not overcooked. The lamb shank has a spicy curry and the meat just falls off the bone. Care has been taken by the chef to slowly cook it until all the spices blend together in the curry. There’s lots of onions in the dish, and it’s well caramelised. Flavour is expected from a good briyani dish. Not to forget the briyani rice fluffy and flavoured with saffron. <br/ <br/ This is a great place for casual diners looking for a clean and friendly place to eat. Waiters/ waitresses are friendly.

Nice food and very friendly staff. lots of parking around the place as well. we ordered mee goreng and two plain roti canai. Both are very nice, big portions as well.

Had breakfast here on a Sunday.  We 've enjoyed dinner here before good food, although a bit pricey.  I was disappointed with my breakfast order though.  This is the menu description: Cheesy Kiddie Toastie<br/ Single slice thick cut white Vienna toast, grilled with cheese three ways, garlic mushrooms and cucumber pineapple salad. What was served was not a 'single slice thick cut Vienna toast ' it was 2 thin slices of white bread, which were very soggy.  It was tasty but I would have preferred the Vienna toast.  I think if you 're going to serve plain white bread instead of what 's on the menu, you should at least inform the customer.  Some of us know our breads! The teh tarik is good though.

Went for lunch and ordered the lamb shank briyani. The lamb was perfectly spiced and falling off the bone. It just melted in your mouth! Served on a bed of briyani rice with a side of pineapple and cucumber acar, and papadum. The serving size was generous and could even be shared between two people. Also ordered a Chendol but felt it lacked flavour and was quite mediocre. The restaurant has a nice casual atmosphere and loved the eclectic tables. One which featured an old ice maker to make ABC used by vendors back in Malaysia and Singapore, featured as a base of the table, very funky! Staff were friendly and accommodating. Will be back to try other menu items soon.
