Makan lah! (Eat!)
As far as I know, we've got three Malaysian / Indonesian restaurants here in the A. They consist of:
Malaya, in a strip mall on Collier Road near Howell Mill.
Nice decor, batiks, etc. Satay appetizer was good, but alas no ketupat. Heavy on the Thai food too.
Penang, on Buford Highway.
The one most favored by real Southeast Asians around here. I think the satay is really grilled and the rotis are quite good as well. Got lots of Thai food too.
Batavia, off Chamblee Dunwoody road in a mostly Latino strip mall.
This was recommended to me by a real Indonesian who goes there when he's homesick. No Thai food. The staff is friendly, friendly, friendly. They also have Indonesian sundries, if you really need Ultrajaya brand milk. Or a CD. Or bulletins about the Indo community around here.
There's also Satay Ria, which I didn't include because I think its a chain. ¶ 12:57 PM

Not sure if they're a chain, but a Malaysian friend of mine says Satay Ria has the best Malaysian food to be found in or around the ATL. We used to eat there about weekly when I worked close to P'Tree, a few years back. If you're ever in, check out their "king of all beverages", a terrifically tasty (though expensive) hot coffee-based beverage - worth checking out even if you're still not a habitual coffee drinker.
