Chef Lagenda - Kurunjang

I had some take away chicken laska for lunch.<br/ <br/ The service was friendly and reasonably quick. My chicken laska was absolutely delicious.<br/ <br/ Everything was fresh, the noodles were good, the chicken pieces tasty but the best part was the laska. <br/ <br/ The laska was creamy, and full of flavour. It was one of the tastiest laksa's I've had in a while.<br/ <br/ Happy days.

Awesome place tuckered somewhere in the middle of Glenferrie street and I Just LOoooove the Nasi Lemak out there. Absolutely delicious and  mouth watering. The menu is really good and the food taste likes the way it should : and not many get that right. Slightly crowded but hey, That's the buzz right, makes you want to go there again and again : Perfect SEA (South East Asian and  food as well. A Must visit and one should definitely try out the Curry Laksa

They’ve got great Malaysian food in there, and fried kueh teow and congee are my favs. The servers are friendly and amazing, so feel free to ask questions if you’re confused with their menu. The seatings in the shop is kinda cramped, but I don’t think they have the choice as the store is kinda small unfortunately. Curry laksa was pretty good too so I’m pretty impressed. Ain’t gonna be as tasty as my hometown’s curry laksa for sure but it’s good enough. Additionally, their chicken curry is pretty great tho it felt more like a rendang dish.

Very surprised to discover that Chef Lagenda has four other outlets in addition to the Hawthorn restaurant. It 's too good to be a chain!! I have a lunch location now when I head for the Lido Cinema to try out those other lunch specials.Exceptionally busy lunchtime small, 'cosy ' front space overlooking Glenferrie Rd with a much larger, spacious covered courtyard out the back. Friendly and efficient, they have a lunchtime special menu of $11.50. I went for the chicken laksa and it was undoubtedly one of the best I 've ever had. Lots of chicken, tofu, a big piece of eggplant and two different types of noodles. Soup creamy/oily/full of spicy flavour. Excellent. More recently (Nov 2019), tried the pepper beef with rice good without being over exciting. And Jan 2020 tried the prawn dumpling soup. Dumplings were extraordinary, packed with prawns but soup a little bland.And then (Mar 2020), Hainan Chicken Rice. very good although I find the dish in general a little ordinary. But this was a good version!

Always a great lunch spot! Food is to a great standard and always fast and hot. Would definitely recommend the char kway teow or the hainanese chicken rice. Perfect Malaysian-chinese dishes. <br/ <br/ Staff are friendly and dishes are great value for money! They do a great lunch weekday special definitely worth making a trip for. <br/ <br/ The restaurant itself is small and has limited seating but worth the wait！
