Dinner at V2 Malaysian Cuisine, San Francisco, CA
After reading about V2 in The Guardian's Best of the Bay issue, we decided to give it a shot. It's a bit out of the way and was grossly overrated. While it's cheap, it's not nearly as cheap as say, Tu Lan. And there's definitely better Malaysian and Singaporean food around. We were happy to find another place offering roti prata, however, and this tasty version was V2's only saving grace. I'd stop here for the roti prata if I happened to walk by this place again, but it isn't worth trekking to if you are not in the neighborhood already.
Chicken Curry $8
More potatos than chicken. A bit too oily and the sauce was just missing something. Ok, but not great by any means.
Tamarind Shrimp $10
The tangy-sweet sauce was tasty and the shrimp were not overcooked. The only flaw with this dish was that there were too few shrimp.

Roti Prata $6
The roti was as good as any we've had--stretchy and flaky all at the same time, but the curry sauce was too thin and a bit lackluster.
