"Just so we're clear, everything at Simpang Asia hits. The bold flavors are what makes the restaurant notable in a spice-laden city like Los Angeles. With two locations, one can choose a spot that's most convenient: Whether at the Palms or Venice Simpang, find some of Los Angeles's best Indonesian, Malaysian, and Singaporean dishes. And though I dined with a group on what felt like the entire menu, the roti stood out."
"It's deliciously flaky, made in the paratha-style that can be found throughout Southeast Asia and the Caribbean. As someone with Carib roots, Simpang's roti resonated in the best way - but the curry dipping sauce is what makes it next level. You know it's delicious right away, but when the entire shared plate gets consumed by one individual (who may have been me), it's something to remember."
Simpang Asia at the Palms and in Venice presents bold Indonesian, Malaysian, and Singaporean flavors highlighted by a flaky paratha-style roti served with a curry dipping sauce. The roti's paratha layering and crispness pairs with a savory curry that elevates the shared appetizer into a memorable bite while awaiting larger plates such as chile-spiked woku branzino and ayam goreng. Mariscos El Faro operates as a seafood-focused food truck offering octopus cocteles, zippy tuna tostadas, Baja-style fried fish tacos, and shrimp empanadas ideal for casual outdoor dining on a plastic stool.
