Nasi Padang

Very surprised how generous they are with set toppings as most ramen shops will normally charge per extra toppings. We got full egg, bamboo shoot, 3 slices of charsiew and plenty of spring onion.

P.S. free extra broth. Follow our daily food update on IG

A good alternative from their usual chicken in green chilli. Fish has crispy skin and tasty as usual.

Creamy brinjal in green chilli sauce. We think the sauce compliments well with the neutral flavour of brinjal. A dish not to be missed when visiting Minang

The jackfruit curry comes with our favourite jackfruit seed. It is a delicacy and signature dish here. Queue could be quite long (15 mins waiting time on Saturday). Wish the curry base could be thicker though.

The well cooked squid is a tricky dish to execute. We used to have one in famous Nasi Padang place and not as good as the one we have here in Minang. It has just the right texture we are looking for.

P.s. we order 2 Sotongs and pay $8 for this dish

We initially want to order the ‘Sayur Gulai Nangka’ (jackfruit curry) but they only have 2 bowls left with sparse jackfruit inside. So we decide to switch to green dish with this ‘Sayur Pucuk Ubi’ instead. The tapioca leaf (sweet potato leaf) in coconut gravy is light (way too light than the jackfruit one). It is definitely healthy but not a strong dish we would say.

We always love the green idea of botok (a traditional Java dish). Grated coconut leftover is mixed with fish and triangularly wrapped in banana leaf and then steamed. This dish fares better with aromatic flavour and chunky fish (with no bones). The portion is great for sharing 2-3 persons per 1 pc.

Visit OTH as we got to run errand there so we pop to Minang in the basement. The Ikan sepat petai has 1 fried fish, 2 tofus and 2 Petai Beans and plenty of chilli but surprisingly we found both the chilli & the fish way too salty. We suspect there must be a kitchen mishap! 😬

We can count on the number of Petai Beans (4 prawns are given). Hope they are more generous with beans cos they are actually our highlights! Rumah Makan Minang is still our favourite value Nasi Padang eatery that we absolutely love!!🔥
P.S. double every single dish we order here to be enough for 2 persons. Pay double but well worth it!

Thought we already agree that it is for 2 persons. Somehow we are given 1 Sotong which never gonna be enough for sharing. No rubbery effect just soft and easy to chew Sotong.👍

The only dish (out of 3 dishes) whose portion is enough for sharing for 2 persons. We find the curry a bit on the light watery side but no regret to choose this jackfruit curry as it is a must order!

We call it “green chilli chicken”. The chicken is marinated well as we feel that it is aromatic with herbs and spices. Although the chicken skin is not crispy, the golden brown color and the taste is really spot on! 👌
P.S. can always top up green chilli small box which they sell separately (as in our earlier post)
