Malacca Straits - one of the best Malaysian restaurants in Sydney

Sorry Jason - I had to hijack this one coz I think anyone who likes South East Asian food and loves a good spice should try this place out!
Malacca Straits serves traditional Malaysian cuisine. I am sure in my travel blog that I've mentioned I like Malaysian food. Well, in Sydney, I have found a couple of really good authentic Malaysian places that actually make me feel like I am in Malaysia - and this is one of them.
The place is tiny - but is always packed. From curries to stir frys to excellent desserts, there haven't been any dish that I did not like!
Highly recommended are: the Chicken Kapitan Curry, the Crying Tiger, Sambal Udang and 'Butter Chicken' (I think this one is only available through the specials board in store)
Now - things are going to be spicy, and I generally don't like chilli - however it's a funny thing. The Malaysians must have some sort of aromatic spice that makes the chilli actually taste good, and not just spicy. Be ready with a glass of soy milk if you are not spice tolerant.
Check their website for other yummy stuff on the menu: http://malaccastraitsthai.com/
When I go again I'll take some photos

Addiction is a terrible thing, but I'm truly a hard-core addict to this place's Hainanese Chicken Rice - truly your original, but definitely healthier, all-in-one meal! A minor gastronomic miracle.
Like you, none of their dishes ever disappoint.
Apart from the Butter Chicken you mentioned and the Hainanese Chicken Rice, I always order their Silken Tofu - delicate and delicious.

I actually haven't tried the silken tofu yet, perhaps on my next visit.
I was there just a week ago!
