Ayam Penyet Ria (Orchard)

Believe it or not, even though I'm a true Indonesian, the first Ayam Penyet I ate was the one in this particular restaurant. Sorry la, Ayam Penyet does not originate from Jakarta okay! (I come from Jakarta)

And I loveeeee it. I love their big serving! It's really fulfilling and will not run out fast when you're busy talking to your friends. The chilli is so SHIOK! (borrowing Singaporean term) It's really hard to find a good chilli here in Singapore, I tell you. Most of the chilli I find is too sweet or not spicy at all. Bleah. Well, I can understand if genesis ^ can't take the chilli..Singapore's tongue juz can't tolerate hot chilli I guess since there are hardly any spicy chilli here. Hahaha.

I also love their gado-gado! Gado-gado is some kind of salad (since basically they throw in many types of vegetables inside), plus some beancurds and some lontongs (rice) covered with yummy peanut sauce. Oh the glorious peanut sauce. I remember the last time I ate this I was so full I had difficulty to get up from my seat! LOL.

They also serve many interesting beverages. I'm not really keen to drink sweet beverages so usually I only order hot tea. However there's a popular beverage there : Soda Gembira. It literally means "Happy Soda". Hahaha. Won't explain what it is. Just go and try! (and tell me whether you got happy or not =P)

One flaw.. The service staff is sometimes kinda blur and our order sometimes doesn't come out as expected (sometimes food item that's not ours come to our table.. and sometimes food item we ordered doesn't come... -_-). We already tried to explain slowly in Indonesian and English but well.. Blur people.. What to do -_-

However all in all I really like this place! Since Kantin Aneka (a stall in now-closed S21 Food square at Cuppage Road) is now closed, I shall go here for my Indonesian food fix. Homesick, you know!
