Continuing our family quest for cheap eats around Melbourne, we found ourselves at Jalan Alor Malaysia Kitchen, conveniently located near a dealership we visited in Ferntree Gully.
We enjoyed the food so much that we actually visited this restaurant twice, two days in a row!
During our first visit, we tried:
• Sarawak Kolo Mee
• Sweet Sauce Chee Cheong Fun
• Sarawak Laksa
• Char Kway Teow
On our second visit, we had:
• Sweet Sauce Chee Cheong Fun (again!)
• Hainan Chicken Rice
• Penang White Curry Noodle
• Sarawak Kolo Mee (again!)
Our favorites were the Sarawak Kolo Mee, Hainan Chicken Rice, Sarawak Laksa, and Sweet Sauce Chee Cheong Fun. The flavors were top-notch, and at just $10 per dish (except for the Char Kway Teow), the portions were generous enough to satisfy an adult.
We'll definitely be coming back for more. This restaurant doesn't offer table service, so you need to place and pay for your order at the counter. There's also a self-serve station with cutlery, extra bowls and dishes, and hot sauces.
