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 youāve been to Arab Street, you probably wouldāve noticed their flagship outlet, considering itās 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 spicesāfrom the sound of it, you already know thereās going to be a medley of flavours.Ā

Some recommended picks include the Beef Rendangāa 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 Mallās food court, which is much like the one at City Square Mall. Though itās not a full-fledged restaurant, youāll still be able to enjoy a vast array of their delectable dishes.Ā
