Makan Cafe

Good halal full English breakfast. Decent cafe right next to the portobello market.
I didn’t like the chicken sausages, they were very mushy and dry from inside. Could give more toast as well.
Prices are decent and good variety. Service is great.

Great Malaysian restaurant and cafe. Portions here a decent and you get good value for money. There are plenty of seats and you can order from their buffet counter and the food comes in minutes. Nasi Lemak and mee goreng are very nice as well as the teh tarik.

Authentic Malaysian food at excellent prices. We had the fish (Mackeral) curry, mutton curry, aubergine and noodles on a plate. As a Malaysian couple we found all the items very delicious. The young man was so helpful and friendly and provided us with an excellent sambal chilli sauce for our meal.

One of the most Malaysian place we’ve found in London with dishes commonly found in neighborhood stalls. Char Kuey Teow was more malay/mamak style than Penang style but still delicious! Nasi Lemak and other lauk are all sedap. Reasonably priced too.

The most affordable Malaysian restaurant I know of by far that serves the warm hospitality and atmosphere that us locals are familiar with back home. I was served by Danish who was a delight to speak with despite my rusty go at Malay.

I got the mixed rice, where you can pick 2 sides for £11.50 or 3 for £12. The teh tarik was £2.95. It’s been ages since I had a taste of home and this transported me back immediately. The cekodok (banana fritter) was a nice touch too.

I went on a Sunday at 11:30am when it was empty, but the customers start pouring in 15 mins later. Plenty of room in the restaurant with nice air conditioning too. As a Malaysian, this is authentic and as affordable as it gets in the UK. I’d highly recommend and would love to try their roti canai next time!
