So tasty! Every dish was incredible. The stand outs for me were the lor bak and the chicken curry. The prawns were also soo good. We shared around 10 dishes between 4 of us and that was a good amount for us. Reasonably priced for the food. We got the cheapest red which was 30 and lovely. I Mambow itself shares a space with other restaurants so it feels pretty casual dining, order at the counter etc. I’d highly recommend.

We tried all the dishes on the menu between 4 people. Some dishes were good, example the fish wrapped in leaves and the chicken. The others were quite average. They are all unique dishes so worth trying out for experimenting but the serving portions are extremely small for the price.

The food was incredible! The night we ate there the chef was on her own too and she kept her cool in the open kitchen and put up excellent small plates of Malaysian food. So much depth of flavour in all…. My favourite was the lamb dish, but all were delicious!

Delicious nasi lemak, full of flavours, if slightly too salty for me. They seemed understaffed and service was good but slow. They didn't have the dessert available 😔

Inside Market Peckham. Bustling weekday dinner for two at the bar. Menu changes from time to time, we ordered 3 starters, 2 mains plus rice and drinks. Highlight was the Lor Bak and the Tangy Pineapple Curry. Busy staff but great service. Will be back to try the kam heong Mussels and Kerabu (22mar)
Edit: Went back a week after for 4 and had a different chef, perhaps getting the hang of a new menu? Wait times were significantly longer, with items forgotten, the mussels were off, sent back and replaced with dessert, because we paid in the beginning (30mar)

I have tried the Nasi lemak pork belly, the pork belly is very tender and has absorbed the sauce, unlike other nasi lemak I've tried elsewhere, the one is not as dry. I found the dish a bit salty for me. The chef told me this is her grandmother's recipe, I like restaurants making dishes with their own story and family history, it makes it special.

I came across Mambow from Chef Chris Pople’s Instagram who really liked their chicken sando, but I have a thing for Laksa so that was what I picked from the menu today.
I enjoyed it quite a lot, the soup is less coconut-y and less creamy than the soup I had in other Malaysian restaurants around London, but that’s not necessary a bad thing at all, it just means the fragrance of the spices come through more distinctively and less oily than usual. I’d have preferred the two prawns to have a firmer texture (they were a tiny bit mushy), but I can easily overlook that because the rest of great.
I tasted a bite of the braised pork belly and it had great flavour. The Sambal was a bit too spicy for me but not a problem since it’s served on the side so you could adjust how much you want.
Based on photos shared by other reviewers it seems they change their menu quite frequently, so I’d recommend going there soon so you get to try these two dishes we had today as they were nice!

Nice space - a modern street food market in the heart of Peckham. Small menu so perfect for sharing (we ordered almost everything). Everything was delicious but the fish was a little too smelly for our liking. Highly recommend for a cheap and cheerful meal

Super tasty Malaysian food and nice wine. We sat at the bar it was a bit of a squeeze but I enjoyed watching the kitchen. Good service!

Couldn’t wait to try this place and finally they started opening in week-ends !! They serve brunch so not the regular menu. I had the Nasi Lemak which was amazing ! Full of flavours, fresh and the Sambal is perfectly made with the right amount of spice. Chicken got the right crispiness and is generous. Also liked the little fried anchovy. I really enjoyed this dish. Staff has been helpful and nice.
It’s a newly opened so keep it up. I will definitely come back to try other dishes !
