More information on Nyonya

You won't find many Malaysian restaurants in New York, but one of the few, and one of the best, is Chinatown's Nyonya. This spacious, bustling restaurant designed like a South Asian tiki hut offers efficient, friendly service, but it's the huge portions of exotic, spicy food that are the real treat. Coconut milk, curry, and chili-pepper-laden dishes are staples of Malaysian cuisine and the norm at Nyonya. The Malaysian national dish, roti canai (an Indian pancake with a curry-chicken dipping sauce), is outstanding. The noodle soups are meals in themselves; prawn mee (egg noodles, shredded pork, large shrimp in a spicy shrimp broth) is sinus-clearing, while the curry spareribs are spectacular. Even the drinks and desserts are exotic, including sooi pooi drink (sour plum) and pulut hitam (creamy black glutinous rice with coconut milk). But vegetarians beware: There's not much on the menu for you here; most dishes are prepared in either a meat or fish broth. Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
