When I sweat it out at the gym, I burn enough calories to earn my lunch. That said, I can't just inhale a whole plate of rice. That would be crazy. I'm eating to build muscles, not to have a weight gain without the benefits. I wanted to have nasi padang this week, so I made sure I worked out enough to earn it.
When I was done at the gym and heading out for lunch, the gym buddies were also on their way out. Decided on an impromptu lunch at Rumah Makan Minang on Kandahar Street. Figured that a 1.30pm lunch would have seats for us. It was crowded, but we got a table for four. Sat outdoors since we were all sweaty. There were fans and it wasn't a hot day; didn't need the air-conditioned tables upstairs.
You can skip the sambal goreng here. It has always tasted weird, and nowadays, it tastes even worse; the tempeh is just sour. The other dishes are fine. The chicken rendang is especially sedap. I like its begedil and paru belado too. The sambal belachan and sambal ijo are still great. Some thing thing
The table went to town with the rendang, and also added on sotong. They also wanted begedil, so we had seven begedil in total since I wanted three. Loads of really decent sambal eggplant and kangkong and all. The food arrived on two trays. LOL Everyone was very happy with lunch.
