Happy 20th Anniversary!

No, it is not my anniversary. I haven't been married that long (yet)! I am wishing a Happy 20th Anniversary to one of our favourite Ottawa Restaurants, Chahaya Malaysia.

We just went there (again) this past weekend and they told us that they were having a raffle because it was their 20th anniversary in September. The prize is a dinner for four and they will be choosing a new winner every month. If you haven't had a meal there then you don't realize what an excellent prize this is!

Chahaya Malaysia has Malaysian, Indonesian and Vegetarian food. The food is absolutely amazing and the selection is huge. Being a vegetarian I find it one of the best menus in the city. The service is also wonderful. The owners come out and serve and talk with the customers when they aren't too busy. It is like going to dinner at a friend's house.

My suggestion (even for you non-believers of tofu) is V12 - it is a Vegetarian Malaysian noodle dish with lots of tofu and vegetables. For those that want meat, there are plenty of dishes with beef or chicken or lamb.

Can you believe that after our meal we even ordered a couple of dishes for take out so we could have it for dinner throughout the week?

Once again, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY CHAHAYA MALAYSIA! We'll be back soon (even if we don't win a dinner for four).
