BEST ICED MOCHA...roughly $5, you get a 20oz cup of heaven. They advertise Kona coffee as what they use here. Being an iced mocha snob, I think the secret to their formula is mixing in the chocolate syrup INTO the espresso shot and swirling before pouring over the ice and milk. Lots of chickory and grainy coffee on my palate makes me a frequent and loyal customer.
...AND BEST MACAROONS. $1.50/ea for the coconut or almond macaroons. I've never had Itzy Bitzy, but these are nothing like any other. Light, airy, and porous, they are huge by anyone's standards. That's what she said.

Date

Ordered:
-Roti Canai (~$3) - the consistency alternates between flakey and chewy textures, still prefer Nyonya's reliable all around flakey texture over this
-Belachan Malaysian Greens (~$10) - water spinach w/ chili shrimp paste, too 'mushy' for my liking, careful as shrimp paste is inherently salty
-Fish Head Curry Casserole (~$16) - CRACKTACULAR! - I think they use some sort of big meaty white fish like grouper, but not sure, lots of meat still on the bone, plenty of gelatinous jiggle, coconut milk + spicy curry broth = heaven!
-Seafood Chow Fun w/ Egg ($6.25) - little did I know the 'egg' part was nothing more than egg drop soup on top of a wok tasty chow fun w/ frozen seafood over it, it would def be better DRY...and w/ beef instead, this def didn't live up to the hype generated here
Total came out to $20/pp after everything
