Sinar Pagi Nasi Padang







We read  so much about Sinar Pagi Nasi Padang that we decided to pay it a visit. It is a Malay stall selling Malay/Indonesian food at the Geylang Serai hawker center.
When we arrived at about 11:30 am there was already a long queue. There were also many other stalls selling the same type of food but had shorter or no queue at all.
We agreed that the food was of a high standard. The black-ink cuttle fish, sambal goreng, assam fish cutlet, young Jack fruit in lemak gravy were delicious and spicy. However, we were disappointed the beef rendang was salty just like the one we had at Warong along Kandahar Street last Saturday.
It is difficult to find a place selling really good beef rendang. When I was a kid, the rendang even at the road side stall was of better quality. Well, we do not expect the cooks of present era are as good as their parents and grandparents.
The teh halia or ginger tea sold a few doors away was also a let-down.
The 2 plates of  meal cost $24 and teh halia was $1.20 a glass.
