Malaysian curry, craft beer, sandwiches, and brunch staples























"Parlay is the coffee shop that Sunset Park has been waiting for. Opened in the early summer of 2015, this family-run cafe offers great tunes and atmosphere while serving up Brooklyn Roasting Company coffee, pastries, and a delicious menu with a Malaysian twist. Crowd favorites include the banana pancakes, Malaysian curry chicken (from a family recipe), and Sambal tuna melt. Cash only!" - Amanda DeRosa & Alexandra Marino
"Delivery and takeout available from this coffee shop - call to order your beer, wine, fried chicken, or curry." - hannah albertine, nikko duren, bryan kim, arden shore, matt tervooren
"When Parlay reopened I tried their Malaysian curry chicken ($11) from its pared-down menu and found the thick, creamy coconut-milk curry just as good—maybe better—in cozy takeout form; definitely pay the extra $2 for a second helping of flaky roti on the side, and note that it’s cash only." - Eater Staff
"Parlay is a coffee shop in Sunset Park with big windows, a bunch of tables, and a record player with a stack of vinyl behind the counter. Do they ever turn that record player on? We honestly aren’t sure. But there’s usually some good music playing here regardless. This is a very pleasant place to hang out and grab some breakfast or lunch. We especially like the chicken curry (that comes with a buttery roti canai on the side), and there are also plenty of things like eggs benedict, pancakes, and various sandwiches." - Bryan Kim
"A Malaysian cafe in Brooklyn referenced as another local venue for which the article’s collaborator did branding work; included to illustrate connections within a modern, design-focused restaurant community but not described further." - Lisa Wong Macabasco
