Specializing in the signature ayam penyet (smashed fried chicken), the restaurant offers affordable Indonesian comfort food with their popular ayam penyet priced at S.50. The dish features a flavorful, huge chicken thigh with satisfying crispy skin topped with deep-fried crumbs, served with fragrant rice, spicy sambal that packs a punch, and typically accompanied by fried tofu and tempeh.
