Very good Indonesian restaurant in Melbourne. Delicious traditional snacks to take away as well!! Very recommended đź‘Ťđź‘Ť
nelayan has started doing deliveries whoop whoop!! we tried out their seafood mie goreng which was packed full of fish balls, egg and prawns - not much wok hei but i don’t think you expect it from this kind of food anyways. the klepon which are basically onde onde were DELICIOUS! super chewy and all of the sugar inside was nicely melted. the otak otak was the best i’ve had in melbourne - not too fishy and a bit spicy. the sambal was delishhh, but the chicken was a little dry.

After visiting Emporium, I decided to swing by this venue to grab a quick bite. Fortunately, all the dishes were freshly cooked by the time I arrived - smelt amazing inside! Basic simple interiors reminded me of a small food court. .
I tried their "Rice + 3 Dishes Combo" costing about ~$12. I chose Beef Rendang, Chili Chicken, and Spicy Potatoes. My personal favourite was Beef Rendang. It was thick but soft and juicy with a hint of sweetness. It was absolutely delicious but I personally felt like it could've been more flavourful. Chili Chicken and Spicy Potatoes were both decent as well and the portion was generous.
.
Overall, I felt like they could've used more spices to bring out the authentic Indonesian flavours. But it's understandable considering how they cater towards a wide range of audience in the city. I plan to visit again to try their noodles next time :)
