I remember the original Penang restaurants in SoHo and the East Village. Most dishes are a fair reproduction, but the sotong goreng has been a letdown of late. Morgan and Emil make it worth the trip.

The Crispy Squid is to die for!! Everything is good here though, and the ambiance is very zen and romantic!

Roti Cani is a must get appetizer. Really love the rendang noodles as well.

The curry laksa was awesome! As authentic as the one they make in Malaysia! I should know LOL

Soong lettuce wrap appetizer is fantastic. Very filling. It's a special. I'm hoping it will be around for a while.

Order the spicy veggie dumplings. They are handmade, fresh daily. YUM.

Lunch special is a good deal if you're a fan of lots of food. I usually substitute the spring roll for extra salad.

Roti Canai and the Kari Sayur Campur is our favorite.

Went for lunch special. Soup, salad and entree came at same time - annoying. Basil chicken is mediocre/heat lamped to death.

I'm a big fan of the steamed poh-piah, but it's not what you might think, so ask Morgan to describe it.

Didn't like the thin fish cakes much. Felt like fast food. Had them way better at other places.

Not blown away. Passable, but nothing special. Coconut pudding was a highlight.
