This attractive strip-mall spot with lush walls of greenery pulls off multiple Southeast Asian cuisines—Thai, Malaysian, and Singaporean—with confidence. Start with the expertly fried crab rangoons, chewy chive cakes, and duck rolls wrapped in roti. Chili crab arrives with crisp soft-shells bathed in a rich red sauce, plus sweet buns for soaking it up. Cool things down with a pyramid of fried rice crowned with a generous helping of lump crab. Desserts are equally delicious—don’t miss the pandan-scented castella cake.
