or maybe bcoz u dont really take spicy food? coz for me, its not spicy enough.. try the ayam penyet ria (the 4th flr one) and maybe u’ll cry bcoz of the chilli.. lol..kidding.. but its really hot..they shld make it less spicy.. last time there used to be this indonesian eating plc too, at cuppage plaza.. dunnoe if u tried tt b4.. the name is prime cafe.. but i think already closed by now. yeah i agree the indonesian food here is quite hard to find. i agree with irah.. ayam penyet was not popular before, when i was still in indonesia..

i think u noe the Garuda Padang cuisine..but i’d consider its kinda expensive for the food they sell is of OK standard, IMO.. but still.. not bad..
alternatively maybe you’d want to try kantin aneka, at cuppage terrace.. or pondok jawa timur at far east, its not bad.. for bakso or beefball try es teler 77 at cineleisure..
sorry if u already know all these places, but i cant think of anything else.. share with us if u noe other ones plss ;)
sorry i juz happened to read ur posts.. tis is my 2nd reading ur post when i tried to google-search for a restaurant review.. and i’ve always enjoyed reading ur post.. most of all lurvee ur blogskin.. Cheers. View all comments by Annie

Ayam Penyet Ria turned out to be a disappointment. Marine Parade is quite far for me to travel to though. But I’ll definitely keep your recommendation in mind. Thanks! View all comments by Veron

As indonesian living in s’pore also, I should say ayam penyet ria is pretty good, but there is one more ayam penyet place which is quite far (in changi village) is also worthed to try. The chilli is very shiok.
And for your information, ayam penyet is not very popular in Indonesia itself, it is only recently that the dishes become popular because of the franchises thingy from the Ayam Penyet Ria restaurant :P View all comments by irah

hi! nice webblog! found it on google while looking pic to show my friend in indonesia how ‘yummy’ this chippy’s curry-cheesy-chicken-crispy i just tried yesterday at clarkquay’s central..

sadly as an indonesian living in singapore for quite a while, i must say that i haven’t found any authentic indonesian food yet.. but the “ayam penyet” in “resto surabaya” so far the closest to match real javanese gourmet.. i prefer it than the one in “ayam penyet ria”.. maybe it’s a bit subjective, simply because i had the same stiff-overcooked problem you’ve mentioned when first time i tried “ayam penyet ria”..

if you want to seek more ‘close to authentic’ indonesian food here, i suggest you should go to “warung M. Nassir” at Killiney Rd or “nasi padang Sinar Pagi” at boatquay’s Circular Rd..

Will gladly tell you if I’d find more :)

cheers
