- Geylang Serai market and food centre is a great place to eat Nasi Padang and other Malay and Indonesian foods in Singapore. Get more details here: migrationology...
Geylang Serai is a wet market and food hawker center that’s known in Singapore for having a high concentration of Malay and Indonesian food available, and I think most of the stalls are halal. You’ll find all sorts of different things to eat at the food court area, including biryani, a number of nasi Padang curry stalls, and many other dishes. I came to the hawker center specifically for the Nasi Padang, and I wanted to try a place called Sinar Pagi Nasi Padang.
Luckily when I arrived, the line to eat at Sinar Pagi Nasi Padang, wasn’t too long, so I jumped in line and I was soon ordering my plate of Nasi Padang. A meal of nasi Padang is originally from Padang in Sumatra, but since Singapore is so geographically close to Sumatra, the dishes from Padang area very popular and there are many Sumatrans living in Singapore. Sinar Pagi Nasi Padang is known for serving some of the finest Nasi Padang in the city, and so I was happy to eat there.
Before digging into my rice and curry, I started off with some satays from Alhambra satay. Unfortunately, the satays were way too sweet for me and sort of dried out.
But luckily, the Nasi Padang made up for the satays. I got some jackfruit curry, chili eggplant, and the main dish, beef rendang, a famous variety of curry made with coconut and lots of fragrant spices. Along with a variety of different sambal chili sauces, it was an incredibly plate of curry and rice, Padang style.
If you’re looking for excellent Indonesian food and Malay food in Singapore, Geylang Serai Market and Food Centre is a great place to be.
Address: #02-137, Geylang Serai Market & Food Centre
Open hours: 9 am - 10:30 pm daily, but closed two weeks on Monday and Thursday
Prices: It depends on how many dishes you take, but my plate was $7 SGD
How to get there: Take the MRT to Paya Lebar, and the food centre is just a 10 minute walk from there.

Mark's Deliciousness guide:
on a scale of 0-10
No Head nod = 0
Head nod with "Mhm" = 1-2
Head nod with "Mhhhhhhhhhm!" = 3-4
Head nod with "Mhhhhhhhhhm!" with smile and wide open eyes = 5-6
Head tilt to the right with smile and a "Wow!" = 7-8
Big head tilt to the right and a little to the left with a chuckle and "Oh Wow!" and "that is Blank delicious" = 8-10, which means you have to try that dish even if it's for $1000 :)
What I like about Weins is that he takes effort to travel around Asia and introduce foods that are affordable to common people. Food is his passion, just take a look at this video, he used his hands to eat Nasi Padang, following the custom of the Malays, you can see he loves his job.
He is not a food critic, I'm sure he had hits and misses when he's in SG, at most he won't upload those videos, why would he give bad reviews to break someones livelihood?
Keep up the good work Mark and Ying, you guys are doing great!!!
There you go....without ying....yang works out well with mark great fong shui for them

I love Nasi Padang! I spent two months traveling through Sumatra, Java and Bali but I came away with a lifetime craving for Nasi Padang. Luckily I live in Los Angeles and there are several good Indonesian restaurants here, some of which serve Padang "style" dishes but it's not the same as the full experience. I keep hoping that one day.... Thank you Mark, as always, for the vicarious thrill.
I just wanted to thank U mark because I have swallowing problem but whenever I watch ur video I can help myself mentally to eat the food! I really wanna thank you, u changed my life. Keep up the good work!
I think you have to meet Pak Bondan Winarno when it comes to Indonesian food. He is a well known as a food lover just like you. He will show you a very authentic food experience that you never forget... Love your videos as always!!
Wow! Wow! Wow! Nasi Padang is my favorite food of all too! Makes my mouth watering!! Yum yum!! Thanks for recommendations, Mark & Ying! 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻
+Tracy Ryan Thanks Tracy, glad you love nasi Padang!
+Mark Wiens I thought it was missing a boiled egg and then I realized I was thinking about Nasi Lemak.
+Mark Wiens my padang Favourite are beef rendang and gulai kambing ( mutton curry)
for secret menu I like fish head curry (gulai kepala ikan) , and beef brain curry ( gulai otak)
nasi padang njiiirr...mantep tuh rendangnya. kalo makan nasi padang emang ga cukup satu lauk, kudu commit gak takut lemak hahaa...gua sekali pesen pasti pake rendang dan ayam goreng lengkap dengan gule nangka dan daun singkong..kalo lagi ada duit lebih bisa tambah perkedel atau telor dadar..mantap broh, beruntung gua jadi orang indonesa
Very place for for Mark I,v been there for lunch with my family.very often when. I go back home to see my family before I got married I used to live nearby only. 15, minutes away they used to had very good market the market gone down because of the. Super market people don,t go there very much thank you for your beautiful video my home town ,
Food makes me Happy to, nothing like some homecooking to put a smile on your face. Also if theres an older person or someone whos not feeling well take them some little bag of food and watch their face smile.Food and friendship is the best medicine.
Mr Mark Viens,,, Padang is my village,,, don't forget go to the beach.. there are a lot a food right there,,, Kakap Merah Bakar my favorite food,,, Kakap it's a big fish,, just try it.. hope we will meet someday..
I've been there, stayed 30 seconds away from there! That was one of my favorite food courts !! Amazing biryani there too !! Excellent to see this video !!!
You could analyse everything ingredient just by taking a bite.
Amazing taste buds!
Indonesian authentic satay usually has peanut sauce smothered on it. I am always amazed at how you can eat the satay in one bite. Mad skills. Respect!
padang in sumatra is known as the land of minangkabaus or minangs. rendang and satay are also available in malaysia. the jackfruit curry is made from young jackfruit. you can try the famous jackfruit dish called gudeg whenever you are in yogyakarta.
Whatever else I may have learnt from your videos, I have well and truly learnt that when dining in Asia at hawker centres, one must arrive early, or wait in a long queue!
It looked delicious!
I get really hungry looking to all that delicious food. You're really good at eating with your hands, it's the best way to enjoy Indian food.
***** Of course it is.
Mark I am super jealous of you right now... Rendang, sambal and satay are three of my absolute favourite dishes... Looks stunning. Seems I'm going to Singapore this year. Thank you for your videos, all excellent and so helpful and entertaining.
+David Willis Thank you very much David, this nasi Padang was really good. Glad you'll be going to Singapore.
Hello Mark! I'm a Indonesian people and i was so proud that you like Nasi Padang! Come to Indonesia and you will get a paradise of food!
The guy who served you is a really nice guy. He's really friendly and provides information about the dishes at time
Delicious yummm this is food indeed. well seasoned. rich in spices. Indonesian food is the best !. glorious indeed. im proud of my country food.
Factoring their size and portion, prices in Singapore is very similar to prices North America. After watching your videos, you made Thailand and Vietnam one of my priority places to go to in Asia.
Bruhhh like have u heard "bali island" located in indonesia? DAMNNN i went there it was the best shit ever
Being a Singaporean who loves nasi Padang, man I've never had geylang serai nasi padang, my Fav one is at Stirling road. I'm definitely gonna go try them. Thank you!
I always give the plastic wrapped ketupat a miss. In Padang, it is called Randang not Rendang.
Don't be a hater, just because he has money to travel all over the world to try food. Everything he orders has been nothing but the best food in that country. I have try some of dishes that he recommend from Thailand and they are soooooo good. Thanks Mark, love all your videos. Keep up the good work, I will be going to Vietnam, in the end of 2016, Hanoi.....Know a good places to eat? And yeah I did eat with my hands in Thailand too, specially with stick rice dish.
Theres just something so satisfactory about eating with hands :))
For those about to visit Singapore for the first time, Mark has just given you a warning. Small time food stalls tend to take their weekly day off on Mondays after the most hectic workday for them (Sunday).
Also I hate it that they stopped using leaf make their ketupat. Although they say they use food safe materials to cook the rice in, I can bet you with that 10 to 15 years from now, someone will come up with findings that there are actually chemicals given off from the heat to give you some sort of cancer causing agent.
+smutpow I cringed when I saw the ketupat packed in plastic. ugh
Is it really about safety precautions? I think its really just efficiency and maybe cost saving cos those plastic-wrapped ketupat are factory made. My mum and I called it instant ketupat. I find traditional way of making ketupat a pain. My Dad used to make it. Not every malay men and women know how to make it now.
That's a very sad looking ketupat
thankfully I'm watching this video now on full tummy. idk what will happen if im in the middle of the night and hungry. great video Mark!
Nasi padang memang salah 1 makanan terenak diindonesia,favoritku jg😁
Mark when we go to S pore. We always eat there and go down stair the market to get the best curry powder it is very curry powder and you can the herbs for bah ku teh. As well. Just ask Ying to tight in a bag and put it with the meat when it boil low down the heat for an hour or more full of goodies try it
looks fab, you were lucky they were open. the wet markets sounds good - will have to check that out.
ohhhh i think he is a great critic ... cos unlike other food critics he gives us the chance to guess how the food is ... if his head swings ... its really good ... if he says ahh its awesome ... its average ... but once he comes out of the restaurant ... he always tells how he felt about the food . he is just very polite ... respects the time tht each people take to prepare the food he eats... Ramsay is not to be compared with him .. thats a different level .. and i love both of them for their criticism in adiff level.
The second Nasi Padang's video... I hope the next video will be in Padang, Indonesia. Great job, always make me hungry and mouthwatering...
I'm just soo proud of being part Indonesian and part Indian and part Saudi and part Moroccan and part Russian .. "I know i'm all over the place but still proud"
Singapore looks so clean, I'm sure its a great country to visit.
The compressed rice is called Nasi Ipit. Very common in spore n malaysia. The Sambal Ijo green chillies is the real winner. Dendeng is another. The beef Rendang preparation varies from Indonesia.
that "rice cake" is called ketupat or kupat or lontong in indonesia,come to bandung mark there are plenty of spicy foods in here...you're a big fan of chilly right? you will have a great experience here, try to google some of the food such as seblak,rujak,lotek,liwet rice and there are also a lot kind of sambal you should try..more than 20 i believe,hope you'll try it :)
It's called a lot of things in Indonesia, depends on where you are.
Alhambra satay is my fave satay. Always go to the stall whenever i'm at geylang serai. The mutton satay the meat is so tender and juicy.
I impressed with mark's skill in using hand when eats...
The "Rice Cake" is actually called Lontong in Indonesia, it basically rice rolled in banana leaf, steamed with boiling water for about 90 minutes.
i think i need to watch more of your videos because I'm actually impressed at the way you eat with your hands! And the Nasi Padang looks delicious n does the sambal! Maybe I'll just go for it although I can't endure the spiciness. :)
hi mark &ying...luv it when you use your hand to eat ..reminds me of home. you need to try kamayan foods in the philippines..when are you goin' back to manila? take care.....
Spot on recommendation. One of the best place for Nasi Padang. Happy to see the 'foodgasm'. 😊
people in Minang always say "randang kalau jauah dari kampuang tambah bakurang padehnyo " in english "rendang if to far away from hometown (it refer to Padang) get more spicyless". so try rendang in Indonesia Mark
This is another great video ..
You are amazing Mark !!
lapar gw liat bule makan nasi padang .bgtu enaknya mungkin ini pertama bgtu nikmatnya dia makan seumur hidupnya ,,,, maka le ke padang food original west sumatera is the best ngiler abisss
For a westerner you are very skillful eating with bare hand!!
Hi Mark and Yin!
That was a good choice of items to try. The all looked delicious. The beef and the Stink beans had been my choice.Great Video !
That looks so yummy . i love meat skewers....i miss home..Homesick...Because of Food....Whaaah..
you can never go wrong with any indonesian food, nasi padang is my favourite too.
nope. some Indonesian food are just weird for foreign palate and not for everyone. for example : Rujak Cingur, Rawon, Pempek, Kerak Telor. Thats some of them. So nope, you still can go wrong with Indonesian food of course.
Mark I love your channel!!!
mark i notice you haven't been in Indonesia for awhile..theres soo many great foods there..i recommend you bali next time as so many different places that you cant visit in one trip...i love all your video..cheers mark..
wow feel like I want to try it.. Awesome video uploaded more I will be waiting..
hi Mark..Just an extra info..most hawker centre stalls or market close on Mondays..hehe..thats why its quiet on Monday afternoon..
0:30 "And then? ... And then?.." ("Dude, Where's My Car?" reference)
+CNVideos Dude!
+CNVideos Hahahaha yes the best
+CNVideos :D LOL!
Mark, most of the stalls are open during the weekends as many ppl would come to do marketing at the ground flood and up for breakfast or lunch!
The nasi padang is so tempting. But nothing beats the Indonesian foods deliciousness if you eat it in Indonesia.
Mark i love the part you talk about pate it make me want to fly right back home in thailand right away
Mark and Ying, great food!
Hey Mark......Your success in life is being yourself.......Don't change anything trying to please a few disgruntled viewers........Best wishes to you and Ying .................
Hey Mark, glad to see you're enjoying your trip in Singapore. By the way, that rice cake in the green plastic is actually called 'ketupat'. It's very popular to be served with satay and during the Muslim celebration of 'Hari Raya'. Originally, they are cooked in coconut leaves woven into a diamond shaped little bag. That really adds flavour to it. The plastic diamond shaped bags are more for mass production and convenience. Just thought you shd know. :)
Not saying that it's wrong, but please let me add to that very Malaysian/Singaporean POV. The rice cake has many names in Indonesia & Southern Philippines, depends on the locality. It is served with many types of food, not just satay. It is also served in various festive occassions. In Indonesia you will see it on Eid, Christmas, Hindu holidays, & even Chinese New Year.
I have tried nasi padang in sg in different location, the taste was very different from what nasi padang should tasted, because all the food was sweet over there. the okay nasi padang i've tried in sg was in takashimaya, the restaurant name was tambuah mas. it was okay for me. but still the best nasi padang ive ever tasted was in padang west sumatera. yuuummm
Have you tried Hajah Maimunah ? The nasi padang their is delicious
+Haiqal Sanchez there*
Mark Wiens, you should come to Padang, real nasi Padang. Some variant of nasi Padang is Nasi Kapau. If you want to come here in Padang, I am very glad to navigate you to visit good country side and other interesting place.
aww thanks for the shoutout!! :D im so happy you enjoyed it. the market is right opposite my home and this video reminded me of why i need to go back and get my nasi padang fix soon
Malay Street food very tasty👍😋💯 good video👍😍💖
not sure if you are still in singapore but i hope you enjoyed your stay and food here mark. do you have a video on the equipment you are using for filming? im particular impressed with the audio quality of the commentaries. do you use voice overs?
Unbelieveable coincidence. Today was the first time i ever heard of roasted coconut when searching for a Thai Massaman recipe and yet you talk about it in this video.... I never had the chance to taste stink beans. I will if i get the chance though.
I love all the different food in your plate. I just wish that we have really good restaurants of Thai and Singapore cuisine here in the states. I live in California but all the dishes I've seen are not being served here.
Thanks for reviewing our food. Glad you liked it. Tell us when you drop by Singapore again.
Nasi padang is one of my favorite food tooIts delicious
Looks Great , looking forward for some spicy dishes especially curries, great job thank you for the video!
That green 'pillow' is called Ketupat in Indonesian. It is available throughout during Ramadhan month.
Indonesian food is so good! I'm not even kidding. I love their cuisine. Mmm...
His big eyes stare into our souls and hypnotizes us to watch more.
I just like the way Mark reacts in his every bite! keep up the good work, loving this!
Hey Mark, at the 9:16 on this video timeline, your camera is actually pointing to a local Restaurant called Hajah Maimunah. They serve awesome range of Malay/Indonesian food. Try a bowl of Siput Sedut when you are there! Also, since you like hot/spicy chilies, maybe you should try Mr Teh Tarik's Nasi Ayam Penyet just to get the kick from their chili condiment.
Mark IM *SINGAPOREAN!!!* OMG!!!!!! THE UNCLE YOU TALKED TOO WAS THE UNCLE I TALKED TO!!! OMG!!! :D U OWN A SUBSCRIBER
Mark, you should fly by to Medan! It's just over and hour flight from Singapore and about two hours from Jakarta!
When you do, try our Mie Pansit (Wanton Noodles) and a lot more of glorious cuisines in which you can taste most of them in Selat Panjang and Semarang Street at nighttime.
Mark, honestly how does the Padang food in Jakarta compare to Singapore? Padang food is one of most favourite food. Try the sate Madura (chicken) and sate kambing (mutton) the next time you visit Jakarta.
I think u could be enjoying to visit Kerala, in India....plz u must come here,we are waiting to see u
ure awsome Mark...i smiled looking at ur face enjoying ur food...hehe
was the rendang served cold? and if so, is it quite common that you get dishes such as that served cold?
wow, nasi Padang is Singapore
mark wiens come to west Sumatera (Minangkabau)
culinary is delicious from Minangkabau
mark wiens a dream is culinary from Minangkabau (nasi Padang)
cinta kuliner kampung saya Minangkabau mark wiens, hehe
thanks mark
If you miss indonesia come to indonesia again mark. If you come again, try SOTO MIE BOGOR. There are also in jakarta. The taste so delicious and fresh if spicy !
That Indonesian Rice you had is called Puto here in the Philippines, its made of glutinuos rice, sticky, we love that with dinuguan.
Hello Mark! I would like to ask how did you get around in Singapore? I'm from Malaysia and the last time I went there I did not have a car and was unprepared for the trip. Therefore, if I went to Singapore by plane instead of driving into Singapore, would the taxi or the bus be the best transport to use?
Yes, u can flag down the taxi to send u around the island.
Hi Mark, really love your videos..but fyi, for the best..you should eat nasi padang at the origin country and province which is at Padang-West Sumatra, Indonesia..promise you, it'll be the greatest culinary moment of your lifetime ;)
That looks so delicious! I'm just as a big chili lover like you. Would definitely add sambal or chili sauce to each bite yummm
