Malaysian:

NYONYA
194 Grand St
Btwn Mulberry and Mott Sts, Chinatown
212 334-3669
One of the best in the City with authentic dishes , not creative fusion. Great Roti Canai, Laksa and Nasi Lemak.

NEW MALAYSIA
46-48 Bowery
Chinatown Arcade btwn Bowery & Elizabeth
212-964-0284
Very, very good dishes. The Prawn Mee and Chicken Rice are quite nice.
Wholeheartedly agree with those two fine choices. Apparently quite a number of folks on Chowhound do as well:

Nyonya

New Malaysia

New Malaysia is my favorite, plus I believe it's the cheaper of the two.
