We ordered the laksa and chow kuay tew which is pretty much like chow fun in Chinese cuisine.
Laksa - Decent ingredients and taste pretty good but it's not very authentic. It lacks of the 2 important ingredients: Shrimp paste and coconut milk. I mean it got coconut milk but not enough and the shrimp paste seemed to be absent. So it taste like curry soup instead. But it still taste good.
Kuay tew - Not bad. Again, it's not authentic but as chow fun, it taste pretty good. Most importantly it has wok air 鑊氣, another word flame flavor. When they did a good job in stir fry, you can taste the flame flavor. The seasoning was also good and not too oily. Good job!
The taste is not bad and pretty good for lunch. Pricing is ok, similar across the board. Plenty of options to pick from. Depending when you go, finding a table in the place could be a challenge. It wasn't for me as I went off peak, still busy with tourists. Definitely a good option and a place to explore as a tourist.
The laksa is a perfect blend of savoury and spicy.Highly recommended!
So happy to come across Malaysian Delights Restaurant in Christchurch. Mr Foo a great man who cooked for us vegetarian fried rice. Lovely
Nice gentleman and good place to eat.
17/4/2022 - Most authentic Malaysian meal I've had in NZ. This Char Kuey Teow is as authentic as it gets. Smoky, smooth and springy, with crisp juicy textures. Amazing!
5/4/2021 - It's not easy to recreate the same authentic flavours, but this is close. Great spice and nice portion. Will come back again.
The best Laksa in CHCH😋
Sooooooo yum and creamy, worth the extra cost for a seafood and chicken mixed Laksa. Will come back for sure.
Simply amazing food and great vibes for the whole place
I had the seafood laksa from this cool little Malaysian store. Piping hot with prawns, egg , fish balls , tofu and noodles in a tasty creamy laksa sauce. The perfect comfort food for a chilly June Friday afternoon at the trendy riverside market. Thoroughly enjoyed. I’lll be back next time.
Love the laksa, creamy and spicy...
Would definitely recommend
The beef rendang came out looking very dry, but it was surprisingly moist and flavourful
