We have been following Warung Nasir when they first started in Liang Seah Street, to Recreation Club and now finally at Killiney Road. Interior is stylish with a very retro touch. I love those marble tables and kampung days paraphernalia lined discreetly along the shelves. I also get nostalgic whenever I eat there, like those quaint coffee shops in Malacca. And they play jazz music too.
Here, they serve the perennial favourites like beef rendang, curry ayam, sayur lodeh, ayam goreng, bergedel, tauhu telur, sambal goreng, just to name a handful. The sotong hitam is often sold out fast. We also love the daun ubi kayu masak lemak, dengdeng, terung or telur berlado, ikan pedas, achar, paru, sup buntot. Problem is everything is so good that you have to exercise great restraint not to put too much on your plate. Better still and much more fun, go in a group and do a share-share, lessening the risk of having to suffer an over-extended tummy. Food standard and flavour is consistently good, so far never had a bad meal. Price, is somewhat mid-range. Depending on what you pick, you can have a simple meal for as low as $3-5 or pile it up and pay more than $10.
Nasir, the handsome & very affable towkay, did a Nasi Tumpang (that is Indonesian, but here, we call it Nasi Ambeng). This is a cone shaped pile of kunyit rice with all the delicious goodies surrounding it. It was very ethnic and everybody enjoyed it immensely.
For those who likes a light snack or dessert, they have a bubur hitam, kueh-kueh and cookies. I hope that someday they they will add more Indonesian style dessert like pengat and bubur terigu (or maybe they did). That reminds me, they used to have Kueh Lopes at Liang Seah Str, whatever happened to them?
