Rasa Sayang, Chinatown, London


After a day out at Portobello Markets, we decided to grab some hotpot ingredients and have hotpot at home. However, while on the way to the Chinese supermarkets in Chinatown, we changed our minds and headed for a Udon Restaurant that we saw previously in Soho.

When we arrived at the restaurant, it was only 5pm and the restaurant wasn't due to open for dinner until 5.30pm. As a result, we decided to go do some shopping for our supper/dessert and on the way, we walked by Rasa Sayang where Irene had another change of mind and so we ended up there for dinner.

We first visited this Rasa Sayang with a friend, Angela, who took us there after deciding against two Japanese restaurants due to their long queues. Irene remembered that visit fondly for the "good food" that she had there and so wanted to go again.



Today we ordered an oyster omelette to share, a nasi lemak and lemon ice tea for Irene, and a beef rendang and cin cau soya milk drink for me. The oyster omelette was really well made and tasted great. Given its price, the amount of oyster was also reasonable. My beef rendang was also really good! The beef was really well made, having absorbed all the flavour.



The only slight let down for the night was the service when they didn't bring us the water that we ordered. It always annoys me when restaurants forget/don't bring the water as it suggests that they don't care about the customer's needs that doesn't resulting in any monetary benefits to them!
