Daniel and I ate at Jaya , a Malaysian Restaurant on Baxter Street, to celebrate the Lunar New Year. The Tom Yom soup was one of the best I’ve ever had–although it was almost too spicy (I was practically crying by the time I finished the bowl, but it was so good I couldn’t stop). I’d also recommend the Curry Puffs and the Basil Chicken. Dan liked the Roti Chanai, and we both thought that the Char Siew Mee was good, but the roasted pork was a little fatty for my taste and the sauce a little too sweet for Dan. Next time I think we’ll try some fish and vegetable dishes. In the meantime, we’re wondering if they’ll deliver to us down on Park Row.
