The Original Nasi Padang @ River Valley

Posted by CyberTron on Sep 23, 2008 10:35PM
This nasi padang is pretty famous, and at one time, there's actually 2 side by side, which generated some buzz in the newspapers. Not sure where the other has moved to now though, as there's only one left when we were there today.

We ordered 2 chicken, one fried, one sambal, also ordered a sambal prawn, ikan bilis with groundnuts, and one tofu. Inclusive of rice and drinks, the bill came up to $19.50.

Personally, I find the fried chicken a bit dry, which the sambal chicken was pretty nice, same as the ikan bilis. However, the prawn isn't very fresh though, as it taste a bit "soggy".

Overall, find the food here is probably just slightly above average.

    I'm not crazy about song fish head, but I'm very particular about the food freshness & tastiness, esp for seafood, freshness is very important to me. ^o^

    I think their high tea buffet is around $18+++ if not wrong. Unless one eats a lot, else might be cheaper to eat ala carte at yan palace or something.

    If ya like song fish head, I think ya should give the one at Albert Street temporary food centre (next to bugis mrt) a try. When I pass by or grab my meals there, I always see old couples ordering the fish head there. :) As for chinatown, there's so many stalls selling that dish, frankly, I'm not sure which is the best one there though :)
