Truly enjoyed the dish. It was quite spicy, and the jasmine rice complemented the heat. The chicken was juicy and tender. I have been seeing their Carlton store for some time now, but I tried them at emporium today. I will surely recommend them to others. However, please keep in mind that some dishes are on the higher end, and I do feel like the portion of rice seemed less. Apart from that, I'm just waiting to try them out again.

This is a great spot for authentic Indonesian cuisine, offering a delicious selection of dishes that cater to both spice lovers and those who prefer milder flavours. My personal favourite is their ribs. They’re incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with rich, savoury flavours. It’s a fantastic choice for anyone who can’t handle too much spice, but if you enjoy a fiery kick, any dish with sambal is a must-try. It’s bold, spicy, and enhances the flavours of the dishes beautifully. To round off your meal, don’t miss their chendol in a cup. The portion is just right, and the sweetness is perfectly balanced, making it a refreshing and satisfying treat.

I had an amazing experience at Kantin! The food was absolutely outstanding—authentic Indonesian dishes bursting with flavor and made with the finest ingredients. The drinks were also top-notch, complementing the meal perfectly. The staff were incredibly friendly and warm, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. I’ll definitely be returning for more delicious, honest-to-goodness Indonesian food. Highly recommend this place! The Highlights? Honestly, everything was mind-blowingly good! Every dish had its own personality, making it hard to pick just one favorite. Here's what we had: Satay Chicken – Grilled to perfection with smoky, tender goodness. Prawn Mie Goreng – A super flavorful, generous serving that had the perfect balance of spice. Ayam Bakar Bumbu Woku – Jasmine rice with garlic crackers, fried egg & a grilled chicken that had a crumbed spice crust that was absolutely divine. Kantin Pandan Toast – If you’ve never tried pandan kaya on burnt butter toast, you’re missing out. Paired with vanilla ice cream, it was a sweet finish that stole the show. And can we talk about the refreshing drinks? Es Cendol Nangka – An Indonesian classic with green rice flour jellies, coconut milk, palm sugar, and jackfruit (yes, jackfruit in a drink). Kantin Java Tea – A house special tea blend with pandan and basil seeds. So fragrant & soothing.

New joint in Emporium, very tasty flavoursome food. Got the grilled chicken with rice and dry noodles. Spicy and packs a punch. Good portion sizing too.
