It tastes better than it looks
This long-standing student friendly restaurant serves up the very popular crispy chicken of Ayam Goreng ($6) with a no fuss presentation along side the slightly different flavoured Ayam Kalasan Thigh ($6). The skins are crispy as hoped with fairly moist meat although could be better for my liking. Try not to be put off by the small serving of Rendang Curry Beef ($4) which likens itself to a pile (blob) of brown
Equally popular to the chicken seems to be the Sate Kambing and Lontong ($9.50). You don’t often find compressed rice in other restaurants and there’s no shortage of flavour from the peanut sauce, sweet soy sauce and fried onion lathered on top. For an extra hit of flavour add some hot chill and oil in the mix if your taste buds and stomach can handle the fire. Ordering dishes is via writing them up on a piece of paper so I guess if you get the order wrong you can only blame yourself (and your hand writing).
SNAPSHOT REVIEW:
PROS: Very cheap, Tasty options, Mainly Asian customers (so it must be good, right?)
CONS: No fuss presentation of dishes, Can get a little crowded and noisy when busy, Need to write out your own order
WORTH TRYING: Sate Kambing and Lontong

You can't argue with the prices. $4 for the Rendang!
that rendang curry beef is only $4? gimme some of that!
Yumm! I want to go. I am doing another trip to Syd in November. loved all the food there!!
I know this place inside out. The food is cheap, but the service is horrible. :( Sometimes I just don't bother anymore.
A helpful looking menu :) The rendang blob looks awfully good!
Self hand-written ordering... guess they didn't have enough money for the touch screens :) Cheap and tasty = winner.
