Indo eats
Served in half-dozen, with choice to select different combinations of flavours. Featured here's 3 chicken and 3 beef. While $9.90++ for 6 may appear a tad too expensive, you're definitely getting your money's worth with larger portions of skewered meat - approx 20% larger than the regular satay sizes from hawker centre? Served with a side of sliced cucumbers and mandatory peanut gravy (you can ask for more!)
Left: Satay
Right: Tahu Telor

Bottom: Beef Lembu - Spicy beef rendang which is a tad too oily to my liking! It was flavourful but nothing exactly mind-blowing in my opinion.
Do not underestimate the size this fried beancurd tower. It was served larger than what was pictured. It's HUGE! Easily feeds 3-4pax and incredibly delicious! Godma who was a regular of Tambuah Mas in the working days back at their very first outlet (Tanglin) had plenty praises for their dishes, and commented that the food "still held its standard like before". The beancurd cubes were cut into pretty sizable chunks - the size was perfect for a satisfying bite and grip. Splitting open the tower will reveal layers of eggs and more crispy bits, doused in generous sweet sauce. The soft tahu, crispy bits combi and sweet sauce combi were incredibly addictive! This is definitely not the healthiest of meatless dish but easily one that shouldn't be missed!
Authentic Balinese cuisine here at Bambu! The Babi guling has the perfect cackling crisp and a good ratio of melt-in-your-mouth fats vs meat. I appreciate the satay - which tastes v similar to the satay in Singapore, with a slightly more pronounced barbecue taste. Prefer this to the traditional saté on lemongrass sticks! Centred within is a mix of preserved vegetables kinda veggie - I can’t recall the name but it has got similar texture to chinese seaweed, just a lil’ more firm tho.
Ahhh. I can’t appreciate this dish. The English description reads “fish dumpling with peanut sauce” and sounded pretty appetising but aw, when the dish appeared before me, I was skeptical and unfortunately, my skepticism was not unfounded. The “fish dumpling” wasn’t fish in dumplings but rather, some really hard and tough fishcake of sort. Really terrible and the taste was nothing to shout about. The saving grace was the peanut sauce which made the entire dish a little more palatable but even then, the peanut gravy wasn’t outstanding. Never ordering this again.
Incredibly popular place for Indonesia food during lunch time, perhaps due to it’s budget friendly prices (most mains are available on the menu
