Re-visiting Ayam Penyet President

Ayam Penyet President, Lucky Plaza

It's been a few years since we were last here at Ayam Penyet President.

Ayam Penyet President, beef rendang

We ordered beef rendang today. It's not bad - tender for most of the parts and a little stringy for the larger pieces. The sweet savoury coconut infused gravy was good with rice.

Ayam Penyet President, lotek

Had ourselves a serving of lotek - another dish we're getting for the first time. The steamed vegetables drenched in a creamy sweet peanut sauce was delicious.

Ayam Penyet President, ikan bilis cabe ijo

Couldn't resist not getting the ikan bilis sambal ijo. Savoury and mildly spicy green chilli sambal that was additionally flavoured and textured by the umami saltiness from the crispy fried whitebait. This stuff makes one a rice monster. 

Ayam Penyet President, ayam cabe ijo

Tender fried chicken thighs from their ayam sambal ijo.

Ayam Penyet President, satay

And chunky grilled chicken satay draped in their thick and peanut sauce. These were bigger/meatier than the local renditions and the chicken didn't taste marinated. Still rocked with that sauce though.

Ayam Penyet President, rice

Of course we had rice with those dishes.
