"“Hold On To Yer Butts.” “You Can Tell Everybody This is Your Sambal.” These are a few of the messages we’ve read on Rasarumah’s giant back-lit letterboard. They’re also silly tone-setters for a buzzy meal at this Malaysian spot in Historic Filipinotown. You’ll share plates of butter-rich beef cheek rendang and sweet-tangy mango salad, clink glasses of barley shochu, and smear hot red sambal on every dish like you’re at one of those paint-and-sip classes. Rasarumah is a sexy, well-oiled dinner machine, the kind you’d expect from the team behind Found Oyster. Leaving your burnt orange banquette at the end of the night won’t be easy. Get the pandan sundae for dessert to buy some extra time." - brant cox, sylvio martins, cathy park
