I recently had the pleasure of dining at O'Town in Glen Waverley and found the experience to be quite delightful. The dishes offered are not only delicious but also great value for money, making it an attractive dining option for those looking to enjoy authentic cuisine without breaking the bank.
I tried their Penang Assam Laksa, and it was an absolute delight. This dish stands out as one of the best I've tasted in Melbourne, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to authentic Malaysian flavors. The Assam Laksa boasted a rich and tangy broth, perfectly balanced with the subtle sweetness of tamarind and the fragrant aroma of lemongrass and galangal. The attention to detail in the soup's complexity, with layers of flavors that danced on my palate with each spoonful. It is a culinary experience that transports diners to the bustling streets of Penang.
One thing to note is the weekend surcharge that is applied, which may deter some patrons from visiting during peak times. However, on weekdays, the restaurant maintains a bustling atmosphere with a steady stream of customers, adding to the lively ambiance.
Overall, I recommend O'Town for its fantastic dishes and excellent value, especially for weekday visits when you can avoid the weekend surcharge.
