Oh dear, this is not the best picture but it is the only picture I have of our meal at Enak! It is difficult 'feeding' the camera first for the sake of a blog while friends are waiting for us before taking the first bite of their meal.
Enak is a new restaurant by the same people who run Nelayan, a long time Indonesian restaurant on Swanston St. The new place also serves Indonesian food minus the nasi campur from the bain marie which will be available only at a later stage.
The decor is simple and new, clean and modern. I get the feel that it aims to be a slightly more upmarket place.
I ordered the grilled chicken rice set ($19.50) which came with tempeh, tofu, sambal, grilled chicken maryland and rice on the side. The rice was served separately on another dish so we had 4 plates which took up most of the table for two persons.
The grilled chicken was liberally doused with kecap manis which I like, and grilled with a nice char. It was slightly dry but coupled with the spicy sambal it made a nice combo.
My friend had the turmeric fried chicken ($19) which I did not try. It looked very crispy but too bad, she was on a diet so all that crispy skin went to waste! The rest of the items on the plate were the same as mine except she had an onion relish instead of sambal.
I enjoyed our meal in the quiet restaurant and it would be nice to go back and try other dishes like nasi campur once they have it up and running.
Meanwhile, here's a joke I heard today - I was nicknamed Nobody, because nobody's perfect!
