Sinar Pagi Nasi Padang is one of Singapore's most renowned halal Nasi Padang establishments, operated by Haji Nasir Kiram who has been perfecting traditional Kapau-style nasi padang for over six decades since arriving from Bukittinggi, West Sumatra in the 1960s. Located at Stall 02-137 in Geylang Serai Market (1 Geylang Serai), this legendary establishment has remained in the same spot since 1964, becoming the busiest stall at Geylang Serai Market and earning recognition as one of Singapore's most authentic Indonesian dining destinations with over 40 types of meticulously prepared dishes.
Their signature menu showcases traditional Minangkabau cuisine including the acclaimed Ayam Panggang featuring grilled chicken smothered in rich coconut-based sauce then re-grilled for complex flavors, tender Beef Rendang slow-cooked for at least 4 hours in coconut milk with lemongrass and aromatic herbs, spicy Paru Balado (beef lungs) prepared until tender yet chewy with berlado sauce, plus tangy Assam Pedas Fish available with both Batang (Spanish Mackerel) and Stingray. Additional specialties include Ayam Sambal with meat infused in rich aromatic sambal sauce, Sambal Goreng featuring tofu and tempeh with chillies and long beans, and Petai cooked with dried chillies and crispy anchovies.
Operating daily from 9 AM to 8 PM (except alternate Thursday-Friday closures), Sinar Pagi's popularity requires early arrival as dishes often sell out by lunchtime, reflecting their commitment to fresh daily preparation and authentic flavors. Their generous portion sizes, traditional cooking methods, and six-decade legacy of authentic Sumatran recipes have established them as an essential pilgrimage destination for nasi padang enthusiasts and a cornerstone of Singapore's Indonesian culinary heritage, serving both nostalgic Indonesian communities and food lovers seeking genuine Minangkabau flavors that connect them to Indonesia's rich culinary traditions.
