It\u2019s in Greenpoint, where owner Chris Low and the team expound on<a href=\"https:\/\/ny.eater.com\/news\/407755\/kelang-nyc-malaysian-brooklyn-restaurant-open-greenpoint-hainan-chicken-house\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> Malaysian cuisine by way of a New York City childhood<\/a> growing up on Brooklyn dining. Caribbean, Italian, and American fare threads throughout the flavorful menu at the fashionable convivial table-service spot right on Manhattan Avenue.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph n2hx75i _1knl15h1 _1knl15h0 cej01i1\">At the time we dined, Kelang just recently secured its liquor license but didn\u2019t have alcoholic drinks yet. But still, the non-boozy kalamansi limeade ($7) was gingery bright and sweet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph n2hx75i _1knl15h1 _1knl15h0 cej01i1\">Pay attention to the intentional spelling of the restaurant: Kelang is the old spelling of the Malaysian port city Klang, where Low\u2019s parents are from. The word \u201crestoran\u201d is the Malay word for restaurant. And then written underneath are its name written out Chinese and Jawi, the latter an Arabic-based script used for Southeast Asian languages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kelang is the newest restaurant from the family behind Sunset Park Malaysian restaurant Hainan Chicken House.
