Feeling a craving the other day for fried rice, I was at Bali Thai to have their Nasi Goreng Istimewa (S$15.50) for dinner. The fried rice dish also included two sticks of Satay, a stuffed winglet, a fried egg, and some Keropok and condiments by the side.

The dish did promise quite a well-rounded variety of items, thus making it a bit more special than conventional Nasi Goreng. Unfortunately, the taste of the fried rice was just not “power” enough to make this worth coming back for. If that was how it was even without the chilli padi added into the fried rice during the cooking process, it could have also been the case when the spice was thrown in.
