Up the street(Anzac Parade), away from the majority of Chinese and Indonesian Restaurants is Sedap Rasa! I stumbled upon this place by accident only because there weren’t any car spaces where I usually park to go to my normal favourites. What caught my attention were the large food pictures of the delicious Indonesian food on offer inside. This place is like a Balinese Warung diner. A bain-marie offers you so many delicious looking choices. Combinations of 1 Meat and 2 vegetable dishes /2 Meat and 1 vegetable choice/3 vegetable dishes are only $ 9.50. If you want more you can pay by the item price. Extra meat — $ 3.30, extra vegetable — $ 2.50. All dishes are served with Nasi Putih(White Rice). Here are some of the choices Sedap Rasa has on offer. Ayam gulai(Slow cooked yellow curry chicken), Ayam goreng,(Fried Chicken), Telor balado(Fried egg in balado chilli), Kentang udang cabe goreng(Potato chilli with prawn and green beans), Sayur kailan(Stir fry vegetables with chicken), Sayur daun singkong(Cassava leaves in green curry), Rendang sapi(Slow cooked beef rending), Cah toge tahu(Stir fry bean sprouts with tofu) and Buncis daging(Stir fry green beans with mince beef). The choices change regularly so as to offer a diverse variety of food. There is also a made to order menu offering you dishes like Nasi Goreng(Indonesian Fried Rice) — $ 12, Mie Goreng — $ 12, Kewetiauw Goreng — $ 13, Sop Buntap(Oxtail Soup) — $ 9.50 and Satay Padang — $ 10. With so much on offer, the 3 meal choice was a good option. When it comes to Indonesian food though, I am a glutton and want more! I ordered two chicken pieces of Ayam gulai(Slow cooked yellow curry chicken), Sayur daun singkong(Cassava leaves in green curry) and Buncis daging(Stir fry green beans with mince beef). Total for 2 Meat and 1 vegetable choice($ 9.50) + extra vegetable($ 2.50) = $ 12. Bagus sekali! Verdict: If you have ever been to Bali, this is the equivalent of a typical warung in Kuta or Denpasar; and a lot cleaner. The food tastes sensational and the staff are friendly. A clean restaurant environment with good atmosphere, what else can you ask for? I know, more food!
