Malaysian eatery with classic dishes, cocktails, and lively ambiance
"We understand that a multi-hour wait for a table compounded with a lot of rain is not ideal. But it’s worth the trouble at Kedai Makan, where you’ll end up with delicious Malaysian noodles, rice, and fried chicken. The comforting food here is spiced perfectly and pairs well with their tropical island cocktails - especially the mushroom pan mee." - aimee rizzo
"Tasty Malaysian food located right next to one of the best bars on the Hill. Always a line and always worth it. Must tries: Nasi Goreng (Malaysian fried rice, kecap manis, tofu, sprouts, chili, runny egg, cucumber) and the Ramly Burger!" - Hum Creative
"What started as a food stall in markets around town expanded into two brick-and-mortar restaurants — one in Capitol Hill and one in Belltown. Kedai Mekan brings the spicy, tangy, and herbaceous flavors of Malaysia to life with dishes like kerabu timun nanas (a cucumber pineapple salad with Thai basil and the chili-centric sambal belacan) and the laksa lemak (noodles in coconut curry broth with scallions, spices, and sprouts). The menu reflects the fusion of cultures in Malaysian cuisine down to the cocktail list, which features libations infused with regional ingredients like the lychee martini and the passionfruit Old Fashioned." - Alicia Erickson
"Kedai Makan is best used for those moments when you find yourself on the couch with your significant other, and one of you blurts out, “What should we do tonight?” Kedai Makan is what you should do tonight. Just give yourself a two-hour buffer. The wait for a table is usually around one or two hours on the weekend, but during the week things tend to move much faster. What awaits on the other side is a fun blue room with tropical cocktails and outstanding Malaysian noodles, curries, and fried rice." - aimee rizzo
"Don’t you dare mentally check out at the sight of “green beans.” Money Frog’s are some of the best vegetables in town. They’re dry-fried and tossed in an agave sambal mustard, served with blended tofu tahini, and sprinkled with sesame seeds and turmeric-pickled cauliflower. It’s sweet and salty, backed by subtle heat, and a superb way to get one of the five daily recommended servings of produce inside your body." - aimee rizzo
