    I found this hole in the wall by accident  but I'm glad I did!

    I haven't tried all their dishes but their curry is fantastic. I usually order the curry beef with rice with a roti shell to use to dip in the curry.

    The beef used is just average, not too chewy and not too tender, just medicore but their curry sauce is really rich and flavourful. Also the roti shell is so soft and crisp, it's absolutely delicious. To compare it to something, it's like eating amazing naan bread at an Indian restaurant which is quite rare these days.

    Keep in mind that it's a small hole in the wall in a small food court and the prices are relatively cheap and it's a no frills place with good curry.

    Do you hear me?
    I'm talking to you
    Across the water
    Across the deep blue ocean
    Under the open sky
    Oh my, baby I'm trying

    Lucky Curry I like my new friend
    Lucky Curry to have been where I have been
    Lucky Curry to come here again
    Ohhhohhhohhhohhohhohhhohh

    Lucky Curry is supposedly a Malay fast food joint, and funny enough, I didn't order curry.  I spotted the Hoi Nam Chicken (aka Singapore Chicken Rice).  Wasn't the greatest in the world, as I have yet to find a place that does really good rice made with the chicken broth.  Instead they all just use plain rice.  Chicken was good with the ginger sauce, and for $6 beats other fast food joints.

    Metro square on the other hand is a bit of a dive mall as I have no idea why anyone would come here aside from the food court and maybe the bakery.

    The good news is that they've renovated the food court and is much brighter and cleaner than it used to be.  We'll see how long that takes before it reverts back to it's old self.  They even have a couple of tvs up and running for your dinning pleasure.

    Anyways.. get into the grove, cause you've got the moves.. oh wait.. I'm thinking Lucky Curry Star really.

    Lucky Curry is located inside Metro Square Food Court cooking up Malaysian. Thai and Vietnamese cuisine.

    I should not expect too much... as Lucky Curry is having this huge menu that includes Pho, Pad Thai, Curry, Pawn Noodle, Curry Roti.. anything you can think of.

    I found it so often with places with such an aggressive attempt to share everything ended up nothing really stand out to be excellent!

    Fried Kuey Teow ($5.95) includes drink
    - I should have order Curry as this place is called Lucky Curry...
    - Just too too oily.. I could only eat half of it and packed up the rest
    - Lack the spice and the garnishes of similar dishes I experienced, really bland tasting!

    Lucky Curry does have excellent pricing! Anytime is Lunch Specials as all their dishes are from $5.25 that includes either a soup, soy milk drink or chrysanthemum drink.

    I might come back to try their curry... and hopefully it would taste much better than the fried noodles I have!
