Istimewa <b>Nasi Padang</b> – Eating Red Series | Unlikely Lady of Leisure Posted: 14 Apr 2014 10:13 PM PDT April 15, 2014 by selenaquah Istimewa Nasi Padang is one of my favourite nasi padang (Malay rice and dishes) places.  I still remember Jon sneaking home food from there during my first confinement when my Mum was stricter with what I could or could not eat after delivery. This place is hot stuff.  Lunch queues are always long, snaking around the coffeeshop.  And a good indicator of quality food is the number of cabbies who go there to eat everyday.  The taxi drivers know best! They have a wide variety of yummy dishes to choose from, making choosing what to eat a battle between greed and belly space.  They are famous for the rendang (dry curried meat), and that was what I was there for that day to fulfil my red meat quota.  The beef rendang was so tender and very lemak (Malay for rich and robust tasting, usually for food cooked with coconut milk).  Their sambal chilli is also kick-ass. Many of the office workers flock there in groups and order a range of dishes to share.  That's the best, then you get to try more stuff! Try to reach early (before 1130am) if you want to avoid the queues, but generally the queues move very quickly because there are usually about 4-5 people serving customers during lunch time. The long snaking queue all the way round the bend Nearing… My turn! Beef rendang, sambal kangkong, sayur lodeh, with sambal chilli – yum! Istimewa Nasi Padang is found at the coffeeshop at 28 Hoy Fatt Road. Like this: Like Loading...

eastcoastlife: <b>Nasi Padang</b> in Singapore - PhotoHunt Posted: 24 Apr 2014 05:18 PM PDT An Indonesian Nasi Padang restaurant in Singapore  PhotoHunt theme : Ink/ Traces I ate at a popular Nasi Padang restaurant in Jakarta several years ago. Last month I discovered that it has set up a branch in my neighbourhood. Neighbours and friends who have eaten at the restaurant strongly recommended it. One night, my husband and I brought some overseas guests to the restaurant. The immense variety of dishes, which are cooked fresh every day, blew us away. Although the dishes were too spicy for our guests, they enjoyed the rich favour and aroma of each dish. We had a delightful dinner. This is how the Indonesian restaurant serves their delicious Nasi Padang dishes in Jakarta. Waiters placed a large number of small platters bearing different types of dishes on our table. Platters that have been touched will be billed; untouched platters are taken away and served to the next table. *shocked* This seems an unhygienic way to serve food. My dishes may have visited a number of other tables before they landed on mine! Could you see if there are any traces of the dishes having been touched by other diners? Squids cooked in their own ink. This is too gross to put into my mouth but my guests enjoyed it.

$7 <b>Nasi Padang</b> - www.hardwarezone.com.sg Posted: 08 Apr 2014 07:31 PM PDT Stomper Sean and his wife was surprised to find out that a plate of Nasi Padang from Lucky Plaza's basement food court cost $7 for fried fish and mussels. Initially, the Nasi Padang cost $10 together with salted fish. Said Stomper Sean: "The stall did not display the prices of the variety of dishes, so my wife initially picked a slice of fried fish, mussels and salted fish. "When she found out it cost $10, she told the lady to remove the salted fish and asked how much again and the lady said $7, for two dishes! "$3 for the fried fish, $3 for the smallest portion of mussels and $1 for the rice! "My wife was very upset so I approached the lady and asked her how does one charge these prices?! It's a food court, besides I think the type of food is also a consideration. "The fish was tasteless and the mussels were cold. As I walked off, they laughed at us! "I think Singaporeans would pay top dollar for good food even if it means traveling to an isolated location, however, we should also caution people to be careful with these stalls. "Sometime later, I got a friend to order the same dishes, and to my surprise it came up to $8.50. Nadi padang now like stock market."

<b>Nasi Padang</b> at Garuda Restaurant in Jakarta, Indonesia - Johor <b>...</b> Posted: 09 Jan 2014 01:18 AM PST The unique, only in Indonesia, nasi padang experience is a must try for every visitor to Jakarta or Indonesia. For our taste of nasi padang, we have to thank our gracious host from Jakarta Tourism Office who brought us to a Restaurant Garuda outlet which is well known for their speciality - nasi padang. Restaurant Garuda has many branches in Medan and Jakarta. Inside this busy Restaurant Garuda outlet in Jakarta, the décor is basic yet inviting. The air conditioning and bright interior provide customers with a comfortable refuge from the heat as well as traffic fumes and noise outside. The custom at nasi padang restaurants in Indonesia is to offer the customer many dishes, spreading them out on the table like a buffet. I marvelled at how the waiter effortlessly balanced more than half a dozen dishes on his arms. The customers can eat what they like from the spread and is required to pay only for what they actually ate. The sole customer (partially hidden) in the foreground of the picture above had 12 different dishes on his table all by himself. I find this colourful smorgasbord with a riot of aromas, shapes and textures, stimulating and uplifting. It just makes me want to indulge and enjoy life in abundant. We didn't have the full spread of all the dishes available at Restaurant Garuda as even our large round table wasn't big enough. Here's just a sampling of what we had. I love this leafy green vegetable cooked in mildly spicy curry. Commonly found also at nasi campur stalls in Malaysia and Singapore, I will always pick this dish whenever it is available. Leafy green cooked by dunking in boiling water and served. Another of my simply prepared favourite dishes. Beef stomach and tendon cooked till tender in mildly spicy curry. Another of my favourite dishes. Chicken leg in curry. Tender chicken with sweet meat juices in mildly spicy curry. Chicken thigh skinned, fried till dry and to a crisp. Canned sardines cooked with chili peppers and garlic halves. A comfort food from generations past. Beef rendang in Indonesia, the country that invented this classic beef dish, is of course a must try. The irresistible surface gleam from the slick and tacky rendang gravy always makes me salivate - really. The robustly aromatic gravy hid the caramelised beef which is a thick slab of quite stiff perfumed meat. The slightly moist fibres were deeply infused with curry spices.     New supplies of beef rendang in steel basins were constantly wheeled from the kitchen to the front to top up the fast moving stock on the shelves. Restaurant Garuda's beef rendang were obviously hot sellers. Beef brain in curry. Soft and dense like lumpy irregular shaped tau kwa (bean curd) with a metallic taste. Not quite my cup of tea. Restaurant Garuda's sambals were awesome. I love it that the chili peppers were pounded instead of blended or ground. Old style pounding leaves some of the fleshy pulp intact giving the sambal a nice mouth feel. Thin beef lung slices fried until it is like a keropok (biscuit). The satay, one of the dishes returned. Dried fish in the window. Restaurant Garuda has a popular delivery service. These ladies were busy packing orders the entire time we were at the restaurant. The small mountain of paper boxes. A peek at one of the simple packed lunches, ready to go. One of the delivery bikes standing ready to send the nasi padang packs to hungry waiting customers. Whenever I am in Jakarta or Indonesia, a nasi padang treat is something I look forward before returning home.
