Sambal Shiok Laksa Restaurant Will Open Malaysian Takeaway Next Door | Eater London

"Planned as a distinct, community‑minded Malaysian takeaway at 169 Holloway Road, this rice‑first concept is inspired by Malaysian 'economy rice' stalls and aims to offer affordable, portable hot meals for students and local residents rather than sandwiches. There will be no laksa; the menu will center on rice with tasty stir‑fries, braises and curries — including nasi campur, Malaysian chicken curry with potatoes, vegetables stir‑fried with bean paste, and soy‑braised chicken with honey and ginger — served in single‑meal portions (vegetarian curries or braises around £4.50). Food will be cooked on site, the operation is planned to run weekdays (about 12:00–21:00) with an opening targeted by March, and the owner intends the new outlet to complement rather than cannibalise the neighboring restaurant while broadening access to casual Malaysian hot food in the community." - James Hansen
