Tucked Away
Indonesian Islands Restaurant By Faris Al Yahya
The place is a perfect hole in the wall. Very small and shabby, with a waiter who can barely communicate. It took five minutes just to get menus. But at least we could see the kitchen through a large window. I tried the mixed lunch platter, it had meat mixed with coconut milk called randang,
boiled egg topped with curry sauce, one big prawn cracker (kerupuk) and denden (dried meat).
The place itself is an ancient relic but I would come again for the sate. I’m not sure if there’s any other place that serves them in Riyadh, really.
My brave companions ordered rice and the chicken and beef sate. Honestly, the food was very average. We all agreed that the favorite was the bean sauce sate.
Whenever, wherever, the answer is China Gate’s Shrimp with Dry Chili. Need to spice up your day? Get your kick of yummy-licious flavors.
