"Tasty Malaysian food in Rusholme, Manchester Good value for money. #Curry mile Our quest to explore different cuisine on the Curry mile led us to Nur Malaysia. I believe it is a franchise and has a branch in London as well. Brown and white interiors with electric blue lights on the false ceiling, this restaurant does give snazzy vibes. What I really liked about the restaurant was the leather bound menu book with laminated pages which prevents you from being bamboozled with the name alone by giving a brief description of the food with a picture alongside. It saved us the task of googling or asking what was in the meal and in a way we knew what to expect. Hence proving, a picture is worth a thousand words. We ordered the ketayap that was in their appetiser section, but as it was being freshly prepared, we had it as dessert, which worked brilliantly. For the uninitiated, these green soft pancakes are grated coconut and palm sugar filled mixture wrapped in pandan flavoured crepes. Sweet, lip smacking. Murtabak Daging was our appetizer which is mince, potato, celery, onion egg filling in pastry. Flavourful, almost like a Malaysian take on samosa/pie. Mee Goreng Mamak Ayam was our main course. We were intrigued by Mamak style, not knowing what it was, we went for it and it tasted very similar to the Indianised Chinese food. It tasted good but was not the flavour we were expecting. At the end of our meal we asked the server what Mamak meant, he explained that it was a version of Malaysian cuisine which was modified by the immigrant Indian community settled there. Well, that explains it. The entire world its cuisine seems connected. Good portion size value for money, we will be visiting Nur Malaysia again to explore their rice curry. Recommended!"
