Valencia Cafe Kitchen - Whitehorse

Fantastic little cafe that offers a Malaysian/international themed brunch as well as hawker style dishes. Our favourites are the Hokkien noodles, curry laksa and wat tan hot (stir fried rice noodles in egg gravy). Keep an eye out for the daily specials- they have a fantastic Pan Mee which we always get when on offer. Since the pandemic we have only been able to get take away which has been excellent but also can’t wait to enjoy the brunch options in house too.<br/

Ordered takeaway and portion size is good, presentation looks good. Flavours are spot on. Ordered nasi lamak and hainanese chicken rice. Both taste delicious. Not sure if they forgot to give me chicken soup for the hainanese chicken rice but would be prefect with it. Will continue to go back to try the other dishes on the menu.

We decided to stop by for a fast dinner. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the service was quick. The food was delicious, although it would have been nice if they had provided a knife with the cutlery. Unfortunately, wine by the glass was not available yet.

This restaurant is not getting the recognition it deserves. While some dishes are truly outstanding and offer an authentic taste of Malaysian cuisine, others can be hit or miss. They also have a variety of snacks like kuehs, nasi lemak, and curry puffs which are perfect for a tea break or coffee time. The fried rice here is exceptional, with an unbeatable amount of wok hei and umami flavors that are hard to describe. The Hakka braised pork with egg noodles, a weekend special, is truly amazing with the pork practically melting in your mouth. The prices may be a bit on the higher side, around 15-16 dollars for a hawker dish, but in my opinion, it's well worth it considering the portion size.

This restaurant offers a great affordable choice for a satisfying lunch. While the curry laksa had some chewy chicken pieces, overall it was still a very tasty chicken laksa.
