Rumah Makan Sederhana

I've been eating at Padang Restaurants for the last 2 days in the row.

Yesterday, I had nasi padang at restaurant Garuda and today, I had it at Rumah Makan Sederhana.

At Garuda, there are more assortment but it's more expensive than Rumah Makan Sederhana.

As usual, I really enjoy the performance how the waiter is carrying the food to the table :) Sorry, the pictures kinda blur, the waiters weren't really cooperative since they must move and serve the food fast.

    Oh yes.. definitely must have the skill, they can put almost 20 plates in one hand!!! Not sure how long they need to do the training.

    Me a food expert? Hahaha.. No lah, no yet ;)

    Yes, I love cooking but I'm not really good in posting my cooking recipes, hehehe

    olivia: Ah.. too bad that Padang food hasn't gone out internationally yet. It's always fun to choose what food to eat since they put all their dishes on the table :D

    13th panda: hi 13th panda, so nice to see you in here :D

    I think the top requirement to work as a waiter in a Padang restaurant is the skill to carry all the dishes :)
