Bathed in a scarlet glow thanks to the bright red awning above our heads, the food looks fiery hot. That isn’t far from the truth. I do find the dishes at “Rumah Makan Minang” to be more deliciously intense in flavour profile due to the amount of “rempah” (ground up spice pastes) used as compared to many other Nasi Padang places I’ve been to.
One of my favourite items to order whenever I spot it is “paru” (cow lungs). However the way they do it here can sometimes be a bit too hard and crunchy. In fact the last time I visited with my parents, we all feared for our teeth. Or maybe we are just getting old 😂
