Warung Surabaya - Singapore

The nasi ayam geprek was quite enjoyable, served with stir-fried long beans, shredded omelette, and a spicy sambal. However, when it comes to the nasi gudeg, don't expect the Central Java style; it was a new experience for me as I’m used to the preserved young jackfruit (gudeg) from both Central and East Java. It felt more aligned with Sundanese cuisine since they also offer nasi liwet. Visiting Gading Street Food can be seen as a culinary adventure, providing a delightful fusion of Indonesian flavors at reasonable prices and generous portions. The martabak manis was delicious, and I appreciated that we could request it to be less sweet to suit our taste preferences. The staff was attentive and friendly, actively seeking suggestions and feedback from customers to improve their offerings.

Their fried boneless chicken is excellent, accompanied by fragrant rice, and overall the serving sizes are very generous. We also sampled their other sambals, but none can compare to the sambal bali, which has a strong, spicy white pepper flavor that really stands out. However, one staff member we encountered on several occasions appeared unfriendly—perhaps they were simply exhausted from working long hours. Wearing a mask, they still couldn’t hide their demeanor. In the service industry, it's important to convey a welcoming spirit and friendliness, and we hope they can improve on that. Additionally, their sweet martabak is highly sought after, so it's advisable to order it in advance as they have a limited availability each day.

Tucked away in the lively Lucky Plaza, Gading Street Food is a fantastic spot to enjoy Indonesian cuisine. The food is absolutely delicious! Don’t miss out on their 'martabak manis' (Indonesian mini pancake), which is a must-try. They also offer online delivery for your convenience.

Not many places I can find decent martabak. They sell martabak taste like Indonesian style with chocolate, cheese, and nuts. Haven't really tried other flavor yet. Might try again when I visit there again. The serving time is quite long though. Took about 25 minutes. Tried the batagor as well. It was good but the price was a bit high. Might try other like the soto and siomay next time.

One of my new favorite Indonesian food eatery! I was so glad when I found out that I could order via whatsapp and arranged my own courier because I stay in the east and rarely got the chance to go Orchard. Tried almost everything in their menu and none was ever disappointing. My favorites are soto betawi, ayam geprek, batagor and tempe bacem. My hubby and I are tempeh (soybean cake) lovers, so we love to try tempeh dishes every chance we got, and we never find tempeh bacem (seasoned tempeh) anymore in Singapore after the last eatery that had it closed down long ago. We were elated that Gading have it, and it was very very delicious! Sadly it was unavailable this time around, but it definitely become our must order dish. The ayam geprek is tender, generous portion and great with any kind of sambal, have tried the sambal mercon, kemangi and bali all were amazingly good with different levels of spiciness. The soto betawi soup is so rich I always finish it till the last drop. And the batagor taste authentic and very nice, just that the portion is a bit small for its price. Tried the martabak in two separate occasions, black charcoal (chocolate and cheese with charcoal dough) and classic (chocolate, cheese, peanuts). Had the classic one with add on wijsman dutch butter at additional $4 and no peanuts. Both were amazing! Adding wijsman butter just made it even more delicious, the extra cost was a tad pricey though, maybe I’d say it’s worth it if it were $3 price point. Overall, Gading offers great Indonesian food that I will definitely love to order again and again.
