Malay Fellas is a Malaysian restaurant at 16 Inverness Street in Camden Town. Its menu draws on street food and home style cooking, with wok charred noodles, fragrant rice, coconut curries, sambal and slow cooked meat at the centre of the experience. The casual dining room works well for a quick lunch, a full dinner or a larger spread shared between friends.
Small plates include flaky roti canai with curry sauce, chicken satay with peanut sauce and cucumber, turmeric fried chicken and green papaya salad with chilli, lime and herbs. Crisp squid, salt and chilli mushrooms and chicken skin add more texture to the opening selection. These dishes introduce the menu’s balance of richness, acidity, heat and aromatic seasoning.
Char kuey teow combines flat rice noodles with vegetables and a choice of protein, while mee goreng and rice vermicelli provide different wok cooked noodle styles. Nasi lemak brings coconut rice together with sambal, egg, anchovies, cucumber and peanuts. Hainan fried rice and spicy village style fried rice offer further combinations of spices, seafood, fish balls and vegetables.
Slow cooked beef rendang, lamb curry, chicken curry and roasted chicken with coconut and lemongrass cover the richer main dishes. Fish, prawns, squid and clams can be paired with sambal, tamarind or coconut curry, while tofu, aubergine and water spinach provide substantial vegetable choices. Pulled milk tea, iced lemon tea, rose drinks and traditional sweets complete an energetic survey of Malaysian flavours.
