Mamak refers to the stalls found in Malaysia, serving stews, vegetables, fried fish etc. Mamak offers the opportunity to see two of the most impressive cooking shows: the making of teh tarik and roti canai. Teh tarik is a sweet milk tea, which is spilled from one pot to another by pulling it almost a meter long through the air. The roti canai is a dough that is kneaded and then turned from one hand to the other so that it becomes a huge circle of thin dough before being toasted on a pan.

A small Japanese restaurant in the heart of Kings Cross, offering a pleasant break in the middle of this busy district. It's part of a chain that you'll find elsewhere in the city. Its "takeaway" stand gives access to the pleasant dining room, where you can sit either at a table or at the counter. In the latter case, you're seated in front of a conveyor belt on which a whole assortment of Asian dishes is paraded, with the color of the dish indicating the price. It's fun, fairly inexpensive and very tempting...
