Nasi Gurih...Nasi Gurih and more Nasi Gurih
Yeah that's what we had for breakfast almost every day at the er... Nasi Gurih stall. There aren't many breakfast choice anyway, we found out by the 2nd morning in Meulaboh.
The dish consists of nasi, small piece of rendang chicken, spicy long beans, fried crispy floury thing with peanuts and sambal chilli. It goes for Rp5000, which is less than a dollar. It is as hot as it is tasty and is much enjoyed by everyone until the stinging sensation on the downstream (when one has diahorrea at some point of time during the trip). Ultimately some decided that cup noodles taste better.
The impressive thing about the nasi gurih stall is the nice lady boss who goes out of her way to delight her Singapore customers. She offered to buy us fried noodles from the market, have it at her place, provides plain water (and hot water & fork for cup noodles) at no extra charge. All these are much appreciated by a bunch of Sporean lost at breakfast.
This is "Go the extra mile for Service" in the purest form
