Despite Kurumba being a small quiet restaurant in Coquitlam, it still offers tons of great food and brings back warm memories, making it a great place to eat. Even though it’s not that crowded, the food will satisfy the needs of your taste buds. It serves appetizing Southeast Asian food that is nearly as good as the actual thing. Being born in Singapore, the food served at Kurumba brings back a nostalgic feeling of my hometown. The moment you walk into the establishment, you can feel the Southeast Asian ambience with the tan coloured walls, wooden chairs, and oriental-style decorations. The service may be slow during peak hours, but the food is worth the wait. My favourite dish to order is the roti canai and curry chicken. The roti is a crispy, flaky, flatbread-like dish that packs a load of buttery flavour for just a plain-looking bread. The curry chicken is a tender chicken marinated in a pot of curry sauce, giving your palate a spicy after-taste. The moment the dishes are placed on your table you can smell the spice-filled curry and freshly-made roti rise with the heat into your nostrils. Throughout eating your meal, you can occasionally hear the roaring of the kitchen fans, but oddly enough, it adds to the atmosphere of a hot southeast asian country, bringing you to the place itself. Even though the price may be more on the expensive-side for asian food, the somewhat generous portions and delicious dishes make it worth the cost. Kurumba may small and quiet, but it serves amazing unique food that’s hard to find in a place like Coquitlam.
