Flavorful health-conscious Straits cuisine- and more

Arrived about 7-8 minutes before the scheduled opening time, and happily found an "Open" sign and welcoming staff. Selected curry vegetables, deep-fried bean curd, plus brown rice, then requested no egg, dairy, onion, or garlic. The response was simply: "Of course!". OK, this is the right place.

The curry was very tasty and not oily (turned out that it also had bean curd, so the side-order was unneeded, but no problem). The vegetables tasted unusually fresh and crisp for restaurant fare, with their flavor refusing to be overwhelmed by the curry. That led me to continue with more vegetables - belacan baby beans - and experiment with a crispy mushroom dish. The beans were also tasty and fresh. The experiment was not successful, as it was a bit too sweet for my taste, making its taste at first pleasant, but then tiresome. Otherwise, the curry and belacan beans satisfied my craving for Straits cuisine without the excess oil that too often comes with it.

Even though the dishes didn't rank in the top tier of this style for me, they were satisfying, light, vegan, allium-free, and clearly health-conscious, while service was attentive and courteous. I wouldn't mind returning to sample more from their extensive menu.
