Ayam Penyet No. 1 has established itself as a value-for-money champion at Bedok Food Centre, serving authentic Indonesian smashed fried chicken from Stall 11 at 1 Bedok Road. This Muslim-owned eatery operates Saturday to Thursday from 6am to 10pm, bringing legit ayam penyet to the heartlands at prices that have earned them recognition as a top choice for budget-conscious diners.
The signature Ayam Penyet at seven dollars comes with fried fish crackers, tau kwa, and a generous bowl of asam rebus soup filled with chopped corn, cabbage, long beans, and carrot. The sweet and savoury soup provides refreshing relief from the fiery sambal, which customers praise for avoiding excessive sweetness while delivering proper fragrance and spiciness. The chicken itself achieves the ideal combination of tender, juicy meat that falls off the bone when cut.
Beyond their signature dish, Ayam Penyet No. 1 serves Mee Rebus, Mee Siam, and Nasi Rawon, expanding their Indonesian menu offerings. Customer reviews consistently highlight the quality-to-price ratio, with many declaring it their winner for value-for-money ayam penyet in Singapore. The stall's location at Bedok Food Centre makes it accessible to eastern region residents seeking authentic Indonesian flavours without premium restaurant pricing.
