Editor’s Note

Last updated 24 Sept 2026

Our take: Pondok Timbuk at Dover Crescent has quickly garnered attention for its Indonesian cuisine, particularly the Ayam Penyet.

Reviews consistently highlight the dish's quality, noting the chicken is crispy on the outside and juicy within, complemented by a flavorful sambal.

The green chilli also receives specific praise for its balanced kick.

While the Ayam Penyet is a clear standout, some feedback points out the absence of traditional accompaniments like tofu and tempeh, which might be a consideration for purists.

There's also a mention of a 50-cent takeaway charge per item, which can add up for larger orders.

Despite these minor points, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many planning return visits for their Ayam Penyet fix.

We think it's a strong contender for a satisfying and affordable Indonesian meal, especially if you're in the Dover Ville area.

What customers say

Pondok Timbuk at Dover Crescent is highly praised for its Indonesian cuisine, particularly the ayam penyet which is consistently described as delicious, fresh, crispy, and juicy, with excellent sambal and green chili.

Customers appreciate the affordability, especially for the quarter chicken, and the fast service even during busy periods.

The main point of contention is the additional charge for takeaway and the absence of traditional tofu and tempeh with the ayam penyet.
