Harden's survey result
Summary
“If you love Malaysian food, head for Normah’s” – “a small and basic café serving street food at incredibly low prices”. It’s “a little difficult to find in a nondescript Bayswater market, but so worth the effort” as your host, Normah Abd Hamid, “is likely to both greet you and cook your meal” – taking “great care to produce delicious food”.
Summary
“The ambience might not be much (it is set inside a no-frills indoor market) but – oh boy! – the beef rending and mee goreng are deeeelicious” at this tiny, high-quality and exceptionally good-value Malaysian café in Bayswater, where Normah Abd Hamid has fulfilled a lifetime’s ambition by sharing her brilliant home cooking with friends and strangers.
Summary
A superb cheap eat, unexpectedly tucked away in a (slightly downbeat) small Bayswater shopping mall – Normah Abd Hamid’s friendly small café offers superior quality Malaysian home cooking at bargain basement prices. We all owe the website Eater a favour for putting the place on the map!
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
