Geylang Serai market and food centre is a great place to eat Nasi Padang and other Malay and Indonesian foods in Singapore. Get more details here: https://migrationology.com/singapore-food/
Geylang Serai is a wet market and food hawker center that’s known in Singapore for having a high concentration of Malay and Indonesian food available, and I think most of the stalls are halal. You’ll find all sorts of different things to eat at the food court area, including biryani, a number of nasi Padang curry stalls, and many other dishes. I came to the hawker center specifically for the Nasi Padang, and I wanted to try a place called Sinar Pagi Nasi Padang.
Luckily when I arrived, the line to eat at Sinar Pagi Nasi Padang, wasn’t too long, so I jumped in line and I was soon ordering my plate of Nasi Padang. A meal of nasi Padang is originally from Padang in Sumatra, but since Singapore is so geographically close to Sumatra, the dishes from Padang area very popular and there are many Sumatrans living in Singapore. Sinar Pagi Nasi Padang is known for serving some of the finest Nasi Padang in the city, and so I was happy to eat there.
Before digging into my rice and curry, I started off with some satays from Alhambra satay. Unfortunately, the satays were way too sweet for me and sort of dried out.
But luckily, the Nasi Padang made up for the satays. I got some jackfruit curry, chili eggplant, and the main dish, beef rendang, a famous variety of curry made with coconut and lots of fragrant spices. Along with a variety of different sambal chili sauces, it was an incredibly plate of curry and rice, Padang style.
If you’re looking for excellent Indonesian food and Malay food in Singapore, Geylang Serai Market and Food Centre is a great place to be.

I'm jealous. I love padang food.
you thank tuyet
Awesome👍👍
Since u r eating in Singapore.. Of cos u should mention its authentically Singporean Nasi Padang and Singaporean Satay ya…not Indonesian.!
Mark, you forgotten Bergedil (fried mash potatoes cakes in egg)
wow
As a Singaporean, let me say that that is a Perfect plate of food
The compressed rice is called Nasi Ipit. Very common in spore n malaysia. The Sambal Ijo green chillies is the real winner. Dendeng is another. The beef Rendang preparation varies from Indonesia.
i have been to the g serai place but not to the hawker. will go one day to try the food
You should give up food reviewing and become a professional gurner, that gurning that you do when you put something in your mouth is top class. PS, Stink beans are called P'tay not P'Thai
I don't like Nasi Padang, but I like the Indonesian Satay…
Mark eat nasi padang like a pro.
Malay Street food very tasty👍😋💯 good video👍😍💖
A large chunk of rendang keeps you chewing quite some time 😉 But what a nice taste!
Nasi Padang come from West Sumatera, Indonesia. Malay Foods is Nasi Lemak.
Didn't you ever hate any food? Every food you like
Singapore satay and indo satay is different
Nasi padang memang salah 1 makanan terenak diindonesia,favoritku jg😁
The guy who served you is a really nice guy. He's really friendly and provides information about the dishes at time

Guys, can we just stop the stupid comments about authenticity?! Singapore is known to be a melting pot of different cultures, that is what makes us unique. Mark already explained in his video that Nasi Padang originated from Indonesia. Can we just accept that somewhere along the way, some Indonesians, or Malaysians came over from Indonesia and Malaysia to Singapore and decided to make Singapore their home? Maybe they missed their hometown food, so they cooked it and decided "Hey, why not sell my hometown food to the people here!" But they had to tweak their recipes due to different tastebuds in Singapore, or maybe they couldn't find the exact ingredients in Singapore and found a different one and Singaporeans liked it so they kept it and they passed the recipe on to their children. It's called adapting.
Assalmualaikum .. admin. Permission to share the video on our channel. We will include this channel link as the original video source. Hopefully, the blessings and benefits
The food at this stall is really good but overpriced. I do eat there once in a while. I still prefer going to Indonesia Padang and eat the food there. My parents have Indonesian friends over there and we go there often. I love the food there, it's cheap and good! Particularly, you can find crispy egg rendang over there and it's my favourite. You can't find it anywhere else. My husband got hooked on it and he doesn't stop talking about it. I've had really nice food and hospitality by my parents friend. I really miss the food there. I'm a Singaporean but I enjoy food from different parts of the world as well! I love food!
Mark has indonesian tongue
Nasi padang the best 😂😂
serious? Why are you still looking for Indonesian food and you Explorer even though you are in Malaysia? How impressive would you be for Indonesian cuisine until you repeat explored in a different country? Continuing Indonesian culinary, to maintain the cuisine and taste that has become a tradition and cultural heritage in Indonesia .go forward Indonesian cuisine. do not repeat itself with what has become the hallmark of our culinary and culture, even some of them claim it as their culture or tradition.🖐️👊
Salam "NGUNYAH TERUS" Salam "JAJAN-JAJAN INDONESIA" 👊🤙
Very place for for Mark I,v been there for lunch with my family.very often when. I go back home to see my family before I got married I used to live nearby only. 15, minutes away they used to had very good market the market gone down because of the. Super market people don,t go there very much thank you for your beautiful video my home town ,
Thanks for reviewing our food. Glad you liked it. Tell us when you drop by Singapore again.
I love Rendang
I love Nasi Padang! I spent two months traveling through Sumatra, Java and Bali but I came away with a lifetime craving for Nasi Padang. Luckily I live in Los Angeles and there are several good Indonesian restaurants here, some of which serve Padang "style" dishes but it's not the same as the full experience. I keep hoping that one day…. Thank you Mark, as always, for the vicarious thrill.
