Filed Under : Travel Guide by madagaox

Cashing in on Indonesia ’s different cultural make up, Warung Enak is a gastronomic celebration of the different traditions and recipes that trademark the archipelago. From 17 000 islands and over 200 ethnic groups, the dishes from Warung Enak are great ways to learn of the evolution Indonesia ’s generations. Warung Enak uses the time-honoured Indonesian warung concept which is basically an open air café. This particular warung maintains the traditional warung environment while utilising many of the modern conveniences and advances that we now enjoy. Designed by Michael White, an Australian tropical landscapist and architect, its blue and white colours are complimented by the mosaic tiles that lay on the floors and the décor just screams casual-but-chic. The open air concept is retained and the high ceiling keeps the interior cool. All these come together to educate you on dining Indonesian-style from years back. Keeping in mind their international make up, all dishes are accompanied by a picture to assist diners in making their orders. The Garang Asam is an excellent choice to start with. This seafood soup is made with lemongrass, chilli and ginger amongst other things and it’s not for the light hearted as it has a spicy after-taste. The Sate Bebek Bumbu and the Sate Babi is a definite must and it is marinated in an assortment of ingredients. The end result is moist and tender meat on a stick. The other recommendation is the award-winning Waku Blanga. This poached travelly is perfectly cooked and comes in a spiced herb broth. What makes this dish a winner is the wonderful way that the lemongrass and chilli compliment the fish. To make your Indonesian crash –course more complete, try either of the two delicious desserts, the Kue Pepe which is a layered tapioca cake, or the Lapis Surabaya, a vanilla and chocolate layered cake topped with pineapple. Presented in colourful but natural manner, the visual invitation is just too hard to resist. Service is impeccable and the staff is attentive and friendly, making the dining experience complete. For more recommendations, approach the staff as they are very well versed with the menu. SD Food Advisors take on Warung EnakIt’s difficult to find a restaurant that stays true to Indonesian cuisine but Warung Enak prides itself in its authenticity. It offers a perfect meal for tourists and locals who crave an all-Indonesian meal. Despite being a ‘warung’, which is basically a local term for a cheap café, the presentation and service is definitely more up market while the décor reflects a typical warung of the days gone by. To make sure you get more out of your dining experience, Warung Enak offers a unique cooking class as well. Diners will get to learn how to prepare your own Indonesian feast to recreate this spectacular feast. Educational and tasty, this is a sure-winner.

Spicy and Seductive Indonesian Traditional Food

Filed Under : Travel Guide by madagaox

There is nothing like going for some Indonesian Traditional Food. Once you have filled your week with enough local and fast food, or you have gone a month with eating European and world fairs from the many restaurants located island wide, it would be time to visit one of the authentic Indonesian Traditional Food restaurants in Singapore. I think the word I would use to describe the food would be ‘flavour’. There is just a burst, and explosion of savoury taste that I experience whenever I bite into a well prepared Indonesian meal. I just cannot say no to a well prepared ‘rendang’ meal, there is nothing like the heavy coconut gravy and the almost melt in your mouth chunks of meat that accompany it, a perfect complement to the bowl of fragrant rice that accompanies it. The meat is tender and the servings are always known to be extremely generous. They are no slouch when it comes to their chicken either, roasted or grilled, they are liberated from their tasteless forms with a whole variety of spices and chillies that make for an excellent dining experience. The meat just melts of the bone and the spices and chilli that they use are simply exquisite, a burst of flavour at every bite. Then how can we forget the ‘tahu telur’, one of the signature dishes of traditional Indonesian dishes. A skyscraper of tofu deep fired with egg batter, decorated with vegetables and spices and served with a sweet sauces. There is also the ‘Garang Asam’, which is a traditional seafood soup that is made with a collection of spices like lemongrass, chills and condiments like ginger and a whole host of select spices. Look out for the ‘Sate Bebek Bumbu and Babi’, essentially, the Indonesian version of the popular ’satay’ found all over Singapore. I don’t think there is enough space in this article for me to list all the great Indonesian foods that you can try all in a single day. From starters, main courses and even deserts like the ‘Kue Pepe’ and the ‘Lapis Surabaya’, there are so many choices for you to choose from. And the best thing is that in all the Indonesian restaurants that I have been to, the service has been impeccable, the staff friendly and attentive and I have had no bad experiences what so ever. If you are looking for a good Indonesian restaurant to go to for lunch or dinner, and want to experience a crash course in Indonesian culture and taste some of their fabulous food, I would recommend going to places in town and areas like Clarke Quay and the River Walk – you will find many traditional Indonesian Restaurants where you can start enjoying their delicacies almost immediately. Price range starts at $20 a person and can go significantly higher, but you always will get value for your money. With their rich spices, generous helpings and range of foods, you will never be’ not satisfied’ when eating Indonesian traditional food.
