Our take: Waroeng Esmeralda, a Muslim stall tucked away in a Ubi coffeeshop, consistently earns high praise for its affordable and authentic Indonesian fare.

Reviewers frequently highlight the generous portions and quality ingredients, especially in their Nasi Padang, which includes a 'humongous' and tender chicken thigh.

The sambal chili is a recurring favourite, often cited as a key component that elevates dishes like the Mee Rebus.

The lontong, priced at $3, is also noted for its high quality and taste.

While the stall offers a range of dishes, the consensus points to a strong balance of quantity and flavour across the menu.

We think it's a solid choice for a satisfying and budget-friendly meal.

Best to arrive before 12 noon to avoid the lunch crowd.

If I could give a six star, I would have. The lontong was $3. Affordable and high quality taste 😋. Just can’t wait to try everything else! Lovely food 👍🏼.

A simple no frills, value for money Muslim stall, hidden in Ubi coffeeshop. Ordered their Nasi Padang for takeaway, wow, it didn't disappoint. The packet came with generous serving of rice and vegetab…

Mee rebus is good. Balance quantity & flavour. Add with the sambal tumis & it completes everything. Ultimately good price.
