When going to Ikea, people think of their knock down furniture, their handy organization gizmos, their swedish meatballs. No one will tell you about the best kept secret in Ikea in Malaysia – its curry puffs.
Curry puffs in Ikea are found at their cafe outside of the check out counters. I’m not sure why they don’t sell them in the restaurant or cafe inside the store.
They cost RM1.00 each which is pretty cheap. Buy 6 and you get them for RM5.50. The curry puffs are quite large with a thin and light pastry. None of those thick chewy pastries, thats for sure. If you eat them hot and fresh from the counter, they are crispy and delicious.
The filling of curried potatoes, chicken and some hard boiled egg is not spicy but is tasty. Definitely look out for this the next time you are in Ikea at Mutiara Damansara. In fact, I’m so inspired, I may try my hand at it soon.

and I was just talking about curry puffs to a Malaysian colleague of mine, last Thursday! we were wondering if there were any good curry puffs sold in Sydney. saw some at an eatery, dunno if they’re nice… must try, you’ve got me craving for them now!
I only eat Ikea curry puffs at Ikea itself while it’s still nice and piping hot! Dun like it cold when I buy takeaway…
PB says: True. Best eaten at Ikea itself! But when we do takeaway, the toaster oven comes in handy!
oooh… I love the Ikea curry puffs… you got me craving for them now =P
PB says: hehe… did you get any?
Me and my friends went to Ikea restaurant several times before. We ordered poach salmon and fish and chips but we noticed the food portion are smalled compare to other customers(especially Malay customers). We did complained to the manager and the headquaters in Sweden but there is no improvement at all.
In a separate occasion ,I ordered the breakfast set that comes with free coffee. When I was about to pay at the cashier counter, the staff charged me extra because it was 1 minute past 9.30am. Few minutes later I saw her taking a coffee cup straight from the shelf and give it to her friends without paying first. The staff is female, short, fat, fair skin, wear scarf, and always wear thick make-up.
