Hole-in-the-wall Malaysian restaurant that may be even better (or at least comparable) to the real thing! My favorite dish is the stuffed bean curd noodle soup.

Michelin-starred Thai restaurant. Beware: a lot of their dishes are EXTREMELY spicy!
There's also a newly-opened Japanese sushi bar directly underneath this Thai Restaurant called Zabb Elee Sake Bar. Excellent dessert and kind of crazy sushi.
