I made my journey down to Malaysia Kitchen's food truck and could spot the maroon truck a half mile away. People were milling around to see what all the buzz was about while 4 young girls were handing out dishes and explaining what they were. For Malaysia's Kitchen's first stop at Union Square, they were showing off some dishes from Fatty Crab (Upper West Side): 1. Kari Ayam – Curried chicken in an onion, tomato, and yogurt-based sauce, flavored with ginger. The chicken was tender and moist but I didn't feel like the chicken carried a lot of flavor. 2. Nasi Lemak – Rice cooked in a rich, creamy coconut milk with egg, sambal ikan bilis, and spices. The sambal was delicious, a salty and spicy brown sauce made with anchovies and chilies that had me begging for more. The boiled egg and coconut white rice definitely helped to ease things down. Also on the side were some salted roasted peanuts which were interesting, as well as a slice of pickled cucumber.
I'm not sure if this truck will become a full-fledged Malaysian truck after their monthly tour of sampling dishes from a variety of restaurants from the buroughs, but I'd definitely would like them to be some variety to the food truck wars.
