Michelin Bib Gourmand-approved Hjh Maimunah Restaurant will be opening a new outlet in the CBD on 4 January 2021, serving up plates of their esteemed nasi padang. If youā€™ve been to Arab Street, you probably wouldā€™ve noticed their flagship outlet, considering itā€™s always bustling with people, along with a steady queue that almost never ends.Ā 

This time, the new outlet takes a spot in the basement level of Hong Leong Building, right smack in the heart of the CBD.Ā

Hjh Maimunah Restaurant serves a selection of 40 over dishes for you to pair your rice with. Their kampung-style menu evokes a sense of comfort and warmth, and they put a lot of dedication into their food. In fact, every dish uses a whopping number of 11 different spicesā”€from the sound of it, you already know thereā€™s going to be a medley of flavours.Ā

Some recommended picks include the Beef Rendangā”€a 30-year-old recipe that uses homemade rempah and braised till fork-tender. The rich and tangy Assam Pedas Fish Head is also another favourite. For non-meat options, I recommend the Terung Beladoā£, which is fried, tender eggplants tossed in punchy sambal chilli.Ā

They have also recently opened a new stall in Tampines Mallā€™s food court, which is much like the one at City Square Mall. Though itā€™s not a full-fledged restaurant, youā€™ll still be able to enjoy a vast array of their delectable dishes.Ā
