  🤤 The taste is absolutely incredible! The fish was perfectly cooked—crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, with a sweet, savory sauce. The curry vegetables with tofu were also great, and the Ikan Bilis was the perfect crunchy addition! For my spice lovers, you MUST try their Sambal Belacan, but be warned, it is seriously spicy, yet so fragrant you can’t stop!
🏠 Despite the crowd, the restaurant is kept very clean and tidy. The ordering section and a small seating area are on the ground floor. If it’s full, you can head up to the second floor for plenty more seating options!
📍 Find it here: 11 Jln Pisang, Singapore 199078 (About a 10-min walk from Bugis MRT or Jalan Besar MRT).
Final Verdict:
💯 Verdict: Long queue and slightly pricey, but for this level of authentic Malay/Indonesian flavor, I give it a perfect score! Definitely one of the best Nasi Padang meals I’ve had this year. If you’re in the Bugis area and craving local food, go for it!

  Situated near Haji Lane and Arab Street, it's quite near to Bugis MRT via the Downtown Line (Blue Line), just a short walk away. Seating is ample, but a little cramped. There are a few seats within the main eatery itself, but next door there's a second space both on the 1st floor and 2nd that you can dine at. The Nasi Padang is really good. Not very oily like most other places and it's cooked fresh. And it's considered affordable compared to coffeeshops and cafeterias, yet has comfortable seating. Had the fried chicken, tempeh with beans and other leafy vegs. (don't know the name, just know it tastes good). The barley drink was very sweet, though. It gets crowded during lunch time so do arrive around 11:45am or earlier if you 2ant to avoid the crowds.

  Not my first visit to Hjh Maimunah Restaurant … they’ve been quite consistent with their nasi padang offerings over time at other outlets too. The flavours are rich, comforting, and reliably satisfying.😋 Tip: besides the usual belachan sambal chilli, try topping your rice with serunding - a fragrant, spiced grated coconut condiment that adds a nice extra layer of flavour. One small suggestion: the Level 2 dining area can feel a bit warm & stuffy, so adding more wall fans would really improve ventilation and overall comfort lotsssss. Pls consider, youur customers will thank you for it🙏
