It has been more than 5 years now since I’ve last been back to Malaysia so when I was in Melbourne I knew I had to go to Raya in Little Collins St.

For breakfast of champions, soft poached eggs with kaya toast. I’m not sure how everyone else eats this but I normally eat the kaya and butter centre of the toast first and then use the crusts to dip into the eggs with pepper and soy sauce. Special mention to the tehtarik as well which was light and frothy.
The sardine pie is a filled with a mixture of chilli, tomato, onion and sardines and encased in a super buttery and flakey shorterust pastry.

The Drommekage cake is a must order, it’s a take on the Danish dream cake with a beautifully light
pandan sponge that’s topped with toasted brown sugar and desiccated coconut.

I also ordered a selection of Nyonya kueh, my favourite being the ang koo filled with mung bean paste and also the Pulut Tai Tai with kaya jam.
