Sate Ayam
Ikan BaladoOk so I've been blogging a lot about food lately, but I can't help it I love to eat! And you Malaysians, I know too well. No matter where you are in the world, and no matter how good the local cuisine is, you need your dose of rice and sambal after 5 or 6 days abroad. Thing is, I'm not judging.. because I totally understand.
So, I am almost ashamed to say that Malaysian friends who visited Paris were the ones who told me about this restaurant! Located right opposite Jardin de Luxembourg, this Indonesian restaurant serves delights we are used to for a petit price. You can budget about EUR25 per person for a good meal close to home.
Taste wise, it is far from your grandmother/mother's cooking. But it is good enough. The "ikan balado" and beef rendang aren't as spicy as it should be, but you can ask for a little bowl of sambal. Less sweet than what I am used to, but still good! So after a long day of shopping in St. Germain and walking through Jardin de Luxembourg, stop by Indonesia for a fulfilling meal.

what about malaysian restaurants? do they have any over there?
ReplyDeleteNo Malaysian restaurants as far as I'm concerned :( I should open one!
ReplyDeleteI remember this place, used to pass by it all the time, looked good! I never had company to join me, so never went in... :(
ReplyDeleteCome back and you'll have a date anytime for Indonesia :D
ReplyDeleteDo you the place serves halal food?
ReplyDeleteI did not see any Halal signs, and they do serve beer, so I don't think that it is. However, there are no pork dishes on the menu..
ReplyDeleteInteresting. Will give it a go since we r in Paris for awhile.
