Yahoo Restaurant Sunnybank

 Little Taipei in Sunnybank is a little upstairs floor of small restaurants, all of which sell vastly different foods. D., and L., are frequently seen in this place and its perfect for us nurses, cause its open to quite late and you can stop by after work finishes for a quick bite.

This time, my Boyfriend and I decided to go to Yahoo Restaurant in Sunnybank. I had to emphasise the "in Sunnybank" bit because it also has another restaurant in Waterford and Highgate Hills. Its a small storefront that opens straight into the kitchen. Our server was also our cook!

This place
They had a decent menu full of classic Malaysian cuisine, with each dish having a picture and very cheap price beside it.

All the usual classics
I ordered char kway teow, which came with stir fried flat rice noodles, bean sprouts, garlic chives, egg, prawns and lap cheong sausage. Unfortunately it came without the little cubes of pork fat, but it still had a good smoky flavour with a slight greasiness left behind. It was actually a massive serving and I really struggled to finish it.There was a lot of hidden protein under the initial tumble of noodles..

My Malaysian friends were drooling
My Boyfriend zoned in on their chicken and combination laksa. It had a wonderful fragrance but a slightly lacklustre flavour to the soup with that being said, mildly spicy, super creamy but lacking a certain body to the soup. There was a combination of flat rice noodles, thin vermicelli noodles, eggplant, tofu, poached chicken and curly juicy prawns.

Okayish laksa
Yahoo Restaurant Sunnybank
Atmosphere: 5. Small food court type place. I wouldn't bring a date here.
Service: 6, cheerful and quick service. We watched our meals get made with speed and efficiency, the guy had obviously done this a hundred times before.
Food: 6, I would go back here again. Large portions, super cheap and quite tasty, even if its not the best Malaysian food I've had before.
