    This is one of my go-to's for Indonesian Restaurants. Singkawang has one of the best pempek (fish cake with sweet sour vinegar sauce) that I've tried so far in California area. Being Indonesian; of course I am a bit picky when comes to my own but Singkawang does deliver. I always order their pempek. Their Soto Betawi (beef soup) is also pretty good - always comes super hot, not luke warm like some other restaurants. The Laksa is great - comes with vermicelli/rice noodle. Soto Betawi and Laksa would be my 2 choices for soup dish there. I ordered the Nasi Padang - which usually comes with chicken curry but when I was there, they were out of the chicken curry so they gave me fried chicken. It also comes with Beef Rendang (Rendang is one of the top/popular Indonesian dishes). It also comes with curry veggies and chili sauce which completes the dish. What is Indonesian food without their chili sauce? This restaurant is connected to the badminton arena. They usually open the side door so people who play there, can order food or drink and they can just get the food through that door without going around through the entrance. But I think since they open that side door, the air inside the restaurant becomes kind of warm. This is the downside. Other than that, I think the food and service are great. They give a complimentary sweet black rice dessert at the end for each person.

    I ordered the Nasi Campur, and it comes with bbq pork, sausage, fried pork chunks, chicken, eggs and rice. The rice has flavoring in it, similar to the rice you get with Hainan chicken. The portion size was perfect, flavors on point. I ordered a Thai coffee for my drink. It came with a black/purple rice, coconut milk dessert to end the meal. Customer service is on point. The waiter made sure we were okay and our water was refilled. Very attentive. Overall 5/5 stars. This was my first visit and it wont be my last.

    Fun little place to eat. Ordered their Fried Cassava. Delicious! Nice and crispy with a soft center. One of my favorite snack's here while I wait for the entrees. Ordered Nasi Campur. It was a mixed bbq meat platter of Chinese sausage, crispy pork and bbq pork with a side of hard boiled egg with cucumber. Usually at other Indonesian restaurants I'm used of them giving the chicken gravy on the side, but here, they incorporate it in the rice. Their Nasi Kunning was fun to eat. I'm still not used to all that peanuts, but it all made sense once I got it to go and mixed it all up in the Togo container. I also ordered their Es Cendol. It's a brown sugar with green jelly dessert. Hoping it would quench my thirst, but there was so much ice that I think I got about 3 gulps out of it. Ended up ordering a Thai ice tea to end the meal. I believe it's a mom and pop place because I only seen two two server and I think the male one was also the cook.
