The 13 Best Malaysian Restaurants In London

"This casual spot on Holloway Road serves dishes like fried chicken, gado gado, and sambal prawns with rice. But the real star of the show is their special laksa—featuring king prawns, poached chicken, soft tofu puffs, noodles, and a shrimp-based broth that makes you sweat in excitement. Summer, winter, spring, and all the rest—you'll want this whenever. Bear in mind it’s a popular spot and it can get a little crowded. But for hefty, flavour-packed portions and a drink for around £30 a head, Sambal Shiok will quickly become a weeknight dinner go-to." - rianne shlebak
