L’s chicken quesadilla was a great snack option for the cold weather! The grilled tortilla came with a filling of cheese and a choice of meat is served with salsa and sour cream, add two dollars for extra guacamole :). The sour cream to our surprise was quite thin and had a liquid consistency – perfect textured to be used as a dip hehe

Chicken Quesadilla ($8.90) extra Guacamole ($2)

J had a small pork burrito with black beans, rice, cheese, lettuce, salsa and sour cream wrapped in a piece of soft tortilla :) This was a lighter option but because of the quantity it actually got J pretty full with no room for dinner! The pork was tender and juicy, and the entire burrito was packed with flavours thanks to the authentic herbs and spices :D

Ayam Goreng 99 – Indonesian style chicken

  

Still craving the infamous Indonesian style chicken from Ayam Goreng 99, L and J headed off to Kingsford again with two other friends P and S.  

L, P and S all had their famous char-grilled chicken :)  The authentic Indonesian chicken was nicely marinated with a choice of breast or thigh.  It was bursting with flavor compared to your typical charcoal chicken and you could really taste that char grilled flavour. 

J tried the deep fried Javanese style chicken which was somewhat similar to the char-grilled version (it even looks the same haha, we had to ask the waiter which one is which :P). This one was probably more dry comparatively, but it’s a good sort of dry… the meat was more fluffy and lose, definitely in a good way :D 

Oh and don’t forget the ketchup sauce (not the tomato sauce haha but the sweet Indonesian soy sauce kecap manis :P) or the chili sauce that both go really nice with the chickens!

L also tried the deep fried soybean and tofu which was nicely fried with a thick batter. They were relatively plain in flavour but made as a good alternative to rice to eat with the chicken. 

Charcoal grilled marinated chicken ($6), Deep fried marinated chicken Javanese style ($6), Deep fried soybean and tofu ($2 each)

We also tried the Chicken satay :D which came covered in a really thick and rich peanut sauce, sweet soy sauce and deep fried shallots  :)

Chicken Satay ($8 for 5 sticks)

 For drinks, we had the avocado juice and cendol :D The avocado juice might sound really rich and filling, but it’s actually quite fresh! The mix of mocha and condensed milk made the drink more like a milkshake making it very addictive. On the other hand, the ice cendol was probably more heavy but still very good with everything in the right proportions :D

Avocado juice with Mocha, shaved ice and condensed milk ($5)
