Madam Kwan's: time for a meal...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Great looking modern kopitiam setting in a comfortable restaurant. This is the kind of place that you'll probably meet friends with, come with the family once in a while or just when you have that plain craving for good nyonya chinese fusion cuisine.

    Nasi Bojari is a type of indonesian coloured rice that comes with assam prawns, beef rendang and deep fried chicken drumsticks. Or give the Nasi Lemak a try ! it's rice cooked with coconut milk. Usually eaten with hard boil egg, cucumber, fried anchovies & ' sambal ' - chilli For desserts, there's the typical ice campur, cendol, bubur cha-cha or sago gula melaka to complete your nyonya melaka dinner experience.

  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Came highly recommended for offering true Malaysian cuisines. It seems Madam Kwan is quite a celebrity on the local celebrity cook scene judging by the number of newspaper and magazines clippings. I was at the branch in Mid Valley Megamall. The restaurant has an upmarket look but without trying to be too pretentious, walking a fine line between Asian and Western style decor. The waitresses and waiters are all smartly dressed and guests are served with glasses of strawberry scented cold water. The service was great and warm though the dishes were a little on the small side. It helps of course that the food was great as welll! All packaging WITH substance. There are 3 branches: Inside Mid Valley Megamall, Inside KLCC and in Bangsar.

    1) The Beef Rendang. Meat done tenderly and yet flavourful without being chewy. 2) Extremely generous with the salted fish in the bean sprouts stir-fried with salted fish. 3) The Nasi Bojari - for finding new uses between Laksa leaves and rice! 4) The secret reciped Fried Chicken Drumstick. Succulent and tasty! For pictures of some of Madam Kwan's dishes, please see my photologue on KL's glorious food.

If you are looking for a nice place to try out Malaysian local dishes, Madam Kwan is the perfect place although the prices are a bit pricey. They have all sorts of Malaysian food from their famous nasi lemak to Chinese style chicken rice to Indian style fish head curry and local desserts.

    If you are looking for a nice place to try our local dishes, Madam Kwan is the perfect place. They have all sorts of Malaysian food from chinese chicken rice to indian fish head curry and malay nasi lemak. Better be there early and try avoiding lunch and dinner hours or you might have to wait in line.

    Nasi Lemak, Nasi Bojari, Fish Head Curry(really really big serving for the fish head curry....if you are going to order this dish, get a bigger table). For desserts: Cendol, Sago and Ice Kacang

  • Nice restaurant in Suria KLCC, it offers local Malay food. Big place, a lot of waiters, but a little bit noisy

    Sour and Sweet Prawns are really great!

    If you would like to try local food without the sight of sweaty hawkers cooking up the yummy dishes, you can try Madam Kwans at KLCC or Midvalley Megamall. The enviroment is that of an old kopitiam or coffeeshop but it's clean and comfortable. The service is fast and your order will arrive within 15 minutes. There are a variety of local dishes on the menu from chicken rice to asam laksa noodles. Unfortunately, prices are not like the hawker's but you get a good selection of near authentic cooking in a nice enviroment. While the service is fast & friendly, I can't help feeling that the staff are rushing the patrons to eat and go. What do you expect? This place is always full especially during lunchtime and people queueing outside are hoping that you do eat & go :)

    Try the chicken rice, nasi lemak and ice tea

    Madam Kwan's: Madam Kwan- this restaurant is...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Madam Kwan- this restaurant is an offshot from Sakura in Jalan Imbi. The owner originally opened a hair salon and started offering meals for her clients, decided to open the restaurant Sakura. Sakura has been around town at least 20 years back - it was very famous for the nasi lemak, assam dishes etc. a place to eat local delights and some simple international fare in a cosy environment. Lots of tourist and also locals. Very busy. We went there for a VT meet together with a VT guest, Vlad from San Diego. The picture is from right, Jenniferchin, Dragonhtml and VTguest, Vlad. And of course my dinner - the nasi bojari

    Nasi Bojari - fragrant rice (coloured as well) with side dishes but served on a huge platter. The condiments is a quarter fried chicken, tender beef rendang, half hard boiled eggs, cucumbers and sambal prawns. The serving is too much for me - but should be OK for guys. Other favourites are Nasi Lemak, and supposedly good chicken rice as well.
