Me and a friend eat at Jaya whenever we are in China Town. I usually order the roti kanaii, basil chicken and coconut rice. I have ordered other things off the menu but I wasn't too impressed. However, you cant go wrong with the basics. The check is less than $20 for 2 people including the appetizers... sort of unheard of in the city. It's definitely worth trying out.

I went to Jaya for lunch the other day. I was seated quickly, and everything on the menu looked delicious. I eventually decided to order Assam Laksa, which smelled really strange, but was delicious. It was basically fish and mint soup with lots of noodles. I also got a little spiced chicken wrapped in leaves for an appetizer, which was extremely delicious, but hard to eat, because it was tied up in tough leaves and they only gave a butter knife to cut. My grass jelly drink was delicious, and if it weren't for the service, I would list Jaya as one of my favorite places. The waitress was just very curt and rude and even though I peppered my ordering with many smiles and thank yous, all she had to say was "yeah" in a rude tone over and over. Well I didn't let it ruin my time, and I would still come back here for the food, but they definitely need to work on their customer service, and I'm seeing a lot of the same in other people's reviews.
