An Indonesian feast that won't dent your wallet![]() 2/27/04
This little gem in Hell's kitchen is perfect if you love East Asian food on a budget. The food is delicious, the waiters smile a lot and the portions are enormous. Though similar in appearance to the more popular Thai and vietnamese cuisines, Indonesian curries have a distinct flavor of their own. If like me, you have a fried rice fixation, I reccomend the Nasi Goreng which comes with succelent shrimp and chicken and deeply flavored chicken satay on a skewer, dabbed with peanut sauce. The dinner special which includes a free glass of wine, beer, a soft drink and dessert, as well as a sampling of several favorites is a bargain at $15 (veg) and $17 (non-veg). The roti kanai, more malaysian that inonesian is my new favorite here only because the cury is so much more delicious than the ones you get at Malayasian places.You can actually have a meal for 2 under $25 in New York and it's worth every penny. |
