Chance upon this small shop selling Nasi Padang on the 4th Level of Far East Plaza shopping centre. Seating was quite limited as the space was quite small. Reached the shop around 1:30 PM, and the dish selections were also quite limited.
Managed to select 4 items from what was available on display. I got the ayam goreng, sambal fishcake, cabbage, and a sunny-side-up egg with kicap manis. The meal was around SGD$8-9, which also included a drink.
Food was quite decent; the lemak chili padi gravy was really spicy. The ayam goreng tasted not bad but was cold. Other dishes were quite generic and can be commonly found at most Nasi Padang stalls.

Usually have to queue during lunchtime due to the bottleneck of limited seats. The food is good, but the place is tiny. Remember to spray your perfume/cologne after dining here, as the fried chicken smell sticks to your clothes and hair. But it's worth the wait.

One of my regular haunts for lunch. The food is fantastic. Expect to queue as people tend to order in bulk. You must try their rendang and fried chicken. Go earlier if you want to avoid the queue, but if you go too early, the fried chicken might not be ready. Expect Orchard Road pricing for the food.

I pre-ordered 7 dishes for my family, and we enjoyed them very much, especially the tempeh and the spicy chicken curry!
The eggplant was so soft and just melted in our mouths. The beef rendang was tender, and the gravy was spicy, which we liked. The begedil was fragrant and not too dry; it had the perfect texture. The ikan bilis provided a nice crunch on the side.
The spicy chicken curry had a pleasant citrus taste, spicy yet refreshing – it was our favourite of all. Actually, the tempeh is our favourite too!

It was a Saturday morning. Despite making a point to arrive at the shop at least half an hour before opening time, there was already one person queuing when I got there. When it opened around 11:15 am, there were about eight people in the queue. I ordered takeaway: beef rendang, brinjal fried egg, and white rice. Cost: SGD6.00. The sambal belacan was free.
The brinjal and egg were nothing out of the ordinary. What I liked was the beef rendang and the spicy sambal belacan. The beef was very well cooked in their flavourful rendang, tender and chewable without any tendons. Their tangy and spicy sambal belacan was hot, but not as super hot as some reviewers had led me to believe.
