On my first day in Penang, Malaysia, I immediately felt hungry and wanted to find some Padang food. I knew that Padang cuisine was one of Indonesia's specialties and was very popular in Malaysia. Therefore, I decided to search for a Nasi Padang restaurant in Penang.
I opened Google and searched for recommendations for Nasi Padang restaurants in Penang. After a few minutes of searching, I found the Nasi Padang Minang restaurant located on Jalan Transfer, Penang. This restaurant had a high rating and positive reviews, so I immediately decided to try it.
After a few minutes of walking from my hotel, I finally arrived at the Nasi Padang Minang restaurant. As I entered the restaurant, I was immediately surprised to see many Indonesians buying food there. Some of them even looked very happy when they saw me, perhaps because they knew I was also from Indonesia.
I looked at the menu and was impressed with the food choices available. All the food looked very delicious and fresh. I decided to try several different dishes, including beef rendang, fried chicken, cassava leaf vegetables, and sour and spicy fish.
After ordering my food, I sat down and waited for it to arrive. While waiting, I observed the atmosphere of the restaurant. The restaurant was simple and clean, with wooden tables and chairs. There were also some paintings and photos on the walls showcasing the beauty of Indonesia's nature.
When the food arrived, I was immediately impressed with its appearance. All the food looked very delicious and fresh. I started to taste the food, and I couldn't stop. All the dishes were very delicious, and the spices were very well absorbed into the meat. Beef rendang was my favorite because the meat was very tender, and the spice was very rich. Fried chicken was also very delicious and crispy, and the cassava leaf vegetable was very fresh and soft.
After a delicious lunch, I started talking to some people in the restaurant. I was surprised to learn that most of the customers in the restaurant were Indonesians. They said that the restaurant was a very popular place among the Indonesian community in Penang. Some of them even said that they came to this restaurant every time they missed Indonesian cuisine.
I also spoke with one of the workers in the restaurant, who turned out to be from Aceh. We talked about Padang food and Aceh culture. I was happy to be able to talk to an Acehnese person in Malaysia and felt that I had a small part of my home in a foreign country.
