Myth Cafe
Authentic flavours and delicious fried drumsticks make this dish a favourite, especially when paired with coffee. However, one person felt the fourteen-dollar price point was not worth the cost.

“Didn’t realised there is the Malaysian cafe around west Melbourne, they serving some really Malaysian dishes. Fried thin noodle (bee hoon) with deep friend drumsticks, nasi lemak with deep fried drumsticks, something really simple but delicious food. Also the stuffed veggies are one of the rare thing you can find over there.”
