Update: We ordered the meat platter for two, and the steak was cooked well-done, resulting in a tough bite. Unfortunately, the beef brisket didn’t meet the previous standard; it was dry and hard, unlike my previous experiences. Prices have gone up by $1. I must say I’m very disappointed this time, and the increased prices give me a reason to try the many other stalls in the food centre. —— Delicious and reasonably priced! Ordered the Rendang Kampong, Chili Dog, and Salai Brisket, and everything cost $26.90. The Rendang Kampong burger came with a beef patty and spicy rendang sauce, sandwiched between pillowy brioche buns. The sauce was not bad, rather subtle for rendang. You can’t see the patty from above because it’s smaller than the buns, but the buns are delicious! They are so fluffy and buttery, making them a perfect vehicle for the sauce. The chili dog is better than most! A touch of salsa added some freshness to the meaty sauce, and the brioche buns here shone so brightly. If you could only eat one dish, go for the brisket. It’s incredibly smoky, tender, and flavourful. Not fall-apart tender, but the perfect combination of meat resistance and layered intense flavours. The potato salad is creamy with a slight tang of vinegar, and the skin adds a little more texture. We’ve just finished and are so full now, but we’re definitely having this again.
