Surabaya Restoran has become one of the most sort after places for me since i started to indulged myself in Indonesian dishes. I swear i have never ever crave anything that much after i had their much famous Nasi Lalapan. By the way, it's situated in Miri Town centre near the old KFC building.
Nasi Lalapan you asked? Well, it's actually a dish where spinach , cucumber slices and fish or chicken meat are served alongside the very tantalizing paste pictured above. The whole dish actually revolves around the paste which contains tomatoes , belacan and other miscellaneous ingredients which i am currently unaware of, but it certainly keeps me coming back for more.
Normally, i would prefer to have a piece of tofu, beef meat and a piece of fish of my own choice to go along with the sambal paste. The paste taste very different compared to others served around in Miri in my opinion. The strong spicy and sweet taste leaves a very unforgettable experience once consumed.
This is how it is done. Dip the vegetables in and apply the paste generously over the veges.
Word has it that it even has tongkat ali essence in it which is yet to be proven but i bet most of the patrons would come back for more once they had tried it. I am really addicted to it. It aint a good thing because 1 nasi lalapan meal would cost your wallet around RM10.00 there. Nevertheless, i totally enjoy it and i would have it anytime, anywhere.
