the best ayam penyet in jb has got to be Restoran Banafe’s own nasi ayam penyet.
The chicken is so sooo tender, yet the skin so so crispy.
the service is quite bad, though. Had to wait for more than half an hour for our 2 servings of ayam penyet to be served!

p/s : the restaurant is located right smack in front of New York Hotel @ JB.

Hi….I from Johor Bahru. I visit some Ayam Penyet stall here in JB. The best stall I can recomment to you is situated at the Larkin Plaza, Larkin, Johor Bahru. The stall manage by Kafeteria Sinar Cahaya no. K11 ground floor Larkin Plaza.
You’ll like it. They also sell Soup Ikan Merah. Delicious. See you.

Chanced upon this blog while googling for something else. Looking at the entry’s date, this comment might be a tad too late…

Anyways…

Gypsy girl – it’s not malaysian food, it’s indonesian! However I’m not quite sure if it’s Javanese or Sundanese. The raw veggies are definitely typical Sundanese salad called ‘lalap’.

And I don’t think it’s sambal belacan, it’s more like sambal tomat, meaning chilli with fresh tomatoes. If you notice, you’ll often find tomato skins mixed in the sambal, and the taste is sweet, sour and spicy at the same time, typical of sambal tomat.

And what’s too hot for me? don’t know yet. I think i’m getting immune to it. I always have to take extra chilli for ayam penyet (so yummy)! maybe wasabi in a large dose yes, but I think Thai food still wins. Their dishes are consistently more spicy than the whole range of padang dishes (the authentic ones from sumatra, not the nasi padang stalls you see in Singapore).

But I too find myself getting addicted to this dish!!

Hiya Matt,

Haha, yes, spicy foods can be addicting, I think its the rush that you get each time you eat something hot :) And then we keep making it hotter … and hotter … :-)

Eating spicy hot foods is certainly addicting. I constantly find myself trying to find something hotter then anything I've ever had before. Yikes! I've had some hot stuff!
