Malaysian goodies await you at Laut, a restaurant right near Union Square. I took myself there three weeks ago and was pleasantly surprised with their tasty offerings.
Laut's roti canai ($4), (a dish I always order at Malaysian restaurants because I love it so,) is good and a fine starter.
Nasi Lemak ($12), coconut rice, chili shrimp, chicken curry, pickled veggie, chili onion, anchovies, peanut, cucumber, a popular, authentic Malaysian dish, came out on a plate and at first looked boring. But, after mixing up all the ingredients together, what appeared, was a flavorful, powerful, and wonderful dish!
So, get your Malaysian on at Laut. Bringing a great cuisine to a cool neighborhood.
