Nasi Padang Minang (GPS: 5.4212, 100.33069) is a very popular nasi padang stall in George Town, Penang. It has been operating out of Kedai Kopi International Hotel at Transfer Road for over forty years, and has attracted legions of enthusiastic diners. The restaurant offers nasi padang with a dazzling array of Minangkabau dishes.
Restoran Nasi Padang Minang begins operating around 11:00 am in the morning. Although I have known of this nasi padang stall for a very long time, I only began eating here in the past two weeks. Both my wife and I were immediately hooked, and in that short two weeks, we have been there four times! Now we know to go early because the coffee shop becomes absolutely packed with patrons. Most diners end up having to share tables but nobody seem to mind that. Of the four times we were there, we bought back twice.
In our opinion, Nasi Padang Minang is good value for money. Yes, some of the large items such as their delicious deep-fried ikan sumbat sambal (which is cincaru, or mackerel, stuffed with sambal and deep-fried shallots) costs as much as RM7.00, but vegetable dishes are quite cheap. We love the authenticity of the food. Not only that, the people who run this restaurant know how to cook each dish to perfection. Apart from the ikan sumbat, our other favourite dishes include the nangka curry, the chicken masak rempah and the ulam.

8 February, 2014 We again visited Nasi Padang Minang, but rather than eating there, we bought home. We got the wonderful grilled catfish, a piece of chicken, the ulam, the nangka, one slice of eggplant, one salted duck egg and two plates of rice. For that spread, we only paid RM22.00. To us, that is a good price for the amount of food provided. We brought it home and had a very nice lunch at home.
