About Mr.Lee Malaysian Cuisine

Run by a welcoming family team on Lygon Street, Mr.Lee Malaysian Cuisine turns out giant, wok-fired comfort dishes that easily feed two. Wok hei marks the smoky char kway teow and Mongolian beef, while regulars steer newcomers directly toward the curry laksas—stacked bowls crowned with BBQ pork, tofu puffs, and fresh beansprouts. Servers will candidly tell you when your order is already large enough for dinner and tomorrow's lunch, gladly boxing up the extra noodles alongside house sambal, chilli oil, and fresh chillies. The bill arrives with zero weekend surcharges, leaving you to finish a cold glass of Malaysian iced milk tea in peace.

  • Massive Portions: Single servings routinely feed two people, from meat-packed curry laksas to hefty noodle platters designed for easy sharing and takeaways.
  • Wok-Fired Classics: High-heat stir-fries bring distinct wok hei to plates like char kway teow, Mongolian beef, and special fried rice.
  • Zero Weekend Surcharges: Diners skip the standard weekend price penalties and can take advantage of a 5% discount when paying cash.
