Indonesian Food and Cakes at Kandahar Street





There is so much talk about Warong Nasi Pariaman, a Sumatran cuisine that we decided to pay it a visit this afternoon. The place was not as packed as some others selling the same Indonesian/Malay food.
It's situated at the junction of North Bridge Road and Kandahar Street. We were a bit disappointed because the beef rendang was salty and the sambal goreng was not as tasty as some sold at the hawker center. The cuttle fish and fish in lemak or coconut sauce was quite good.
Overall, I'll give it a rating of 6 out of 10. Btw, the meal was reasonably priced at $10 each without drinks.


Rich and Good Cake Shop


We bought 2 Swiss rolls, one with kaya (green) and the other durian from the famous " Rich and Good Cake" shop along Kandahar Street. These rolls are spongy and soft. I particularly love the one stuffed with durian fillings. It was delicious, soft and spongy.
Our dinner was made up of the above Swiss rolls. We ate up the durian roll and kept half of the kaya roll for tomorrow.
We are thankful to God for giving us a great appetite and the affordability.

BT, try Rumah Makan Minang. It is on the corner of the same row as the cake shop. The food is better. Warong was good but not good anymore. The daughter took over. She was in Secondary School when I first patronise. Today, she is a middle age mother.

You may be right BL but the Q at Makan Minang was long we settled for Warong which was 60% full. I agree with you that Warong's food is nothing to rave about.
