REALLY GOOD
1st SINGAPORE CHICKEN SATAY
SQ 835, PVG - SIN
With onion, cucumber and spicy peanut sauce
2nd MALAYSIAN SATAY
Madam Kwan's Pavilion Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur
BRIEF: “6 pieces of skewered barbequed meat served with traditional peanut sauce, cucumbers, onions, pineapples and rice cakes.” SOOT’S TAKE: Not bad! The gravy was much preferred to the overly sweet ones I’ve had elsewhere in Malaysia.
3rd SKEWERS PARTY
Lax Lax Restaurant, Petaling Jaya
A combination of pork and chicken satay. Both types were flavorful and juicy and the gravy was surprisingly piquant as opposed to cloying.
4th SATAY
168 CMY Satay, Singapore
Got a combination of chicken and pork satay to share. Too bad they ran out of ketupat!
5th SINGAPORE CHICKEN SATAY
SQ 28, SIN - SEA
With onion, cucumber and spicy peanut sauce,
6th CHICKEN SATAY
Restoran Sea Park, Petaling Jaya
At 1/3 the price of satay at Satay Station and BETTER!
7th AYAM SATE MADURA
Cumi Bali Indonesian Restaurant, Singapore
Javanese styled chicken satay - their crowd's fav.. Definitely not satay as I’ve mostly known it. This is chunkier, smokier and just a different meat thing on a stick.
8th CHICKEN SATAY
The Café & Terrace Restaurant, Singapore
Chicken, served with cucumber, onions, rice cake and spicy peanut sauce. Perfectly portioned.
9th CHICKEN SATAY
ABC Brickworks, Singapore
Smoky, flavorful, grilled skewered meat, ketupat (rice dumplings cooked in woven palm leaves) and cucumber to accompany a spicy and tasty peanut gravy.
10th CHICKEN SATAY
Stamford Catering Services Pte Ltd, Singapore
I really enjoyed this and would’ve gone for more except the entire thing of peanut gravy fell off the counter and then I knew it was GAME OVER. 😭
12th INDONESIAN BEEF SATAY | SATE MERANGGI INDONESIA
The Majapahit @ Arcoris Mont' Kiara, Kuala Lumpur
“Intensely flavorful skewers of Indonesia’s heritage-spiced grilled beef.” Intensely flavorful is correct!
13th SATAY DAGING & AYAM
Satay Station, Kuala Lumpur
Chunky chicken and beef satay with an extremely spicy peanut gravy. 🥵
14th CHICKEN SATAY
Changi Village Satay, Singapore
With ketupat and the regular fixins’. Tender meat on sticks with just the right balance of fat and muscle. The gravy was decent as well.
15th 雞肉沙爹 CHICKEN SATAY
選记沙爹王 Chuan Kee Satay, Singapore
Chicken satay served with Hainanese-style gravy i.e. spicy peanut gravy with a dollop of pineapple purée. There was a long line to get this and they’d sold out of their pork satay, which is supposed to be sensational. Next time...
PRETTY GOOD
19th 雞肉沙爹 CHICKEN SATAY
Soon Lee Heng Satay Chicken Wing, Singapore
Not bad but I think I prefer ABC Satay Chicken Wing’s satay.
21st SATAY ORIGINAL PREMIUM
Satay Station, Kuala Lumpur
77% CHICKEN 23% BEEF Way chunkier and juicier than the ones in Singapore.
23rd CHICKEN SATAY
Cafe on the Ridge, Singapore
Satay was good although the gravy was a tad too sweet for me.
24th CHICKEN SATAY
Haron Satay, Singapore
Charcoal-grilled chicken satay with ketupat (rice dumplings), cukes and onion. Marinade and gravy are a tad sweet.
25th CHICKEN SATAY WITH PEANUT AND PINEAPPLE SAUCE
Soots Cook Nook, Private
Very flavorful but the meat was a little dry from grilling in the oven. The gravy was also very spicy from the addition of perhaps one too many chili padis (birds eye chili). 🌶 🌶 🌶
26th SATAY OF SOUTHEAST ASIA
The Majapahit @ Arcoris Mont' Kiara, Kuala Lumpur
Four of The Majapahit’s signature satays: 1. Malaysian Chicken Satay 2. Vietnamese Grilled Sugarcane Prawn 3. Balinese Fish Satay 4. Indonesian Beef Satay
27th BALINESE FISH SATAY | SATE LILIT BALI
The Majapahit @ Arcoris Mont' Kiara, Kuala Lumpur
“Charcoal-charred skewers of brightly seasoned fish paste with lemongrass.” The only thing missing is a breezy evening along the beach somewhere.
28th CHICKEN SATAY
DBS Asia Treasures Lounge, Singapore
Snack-sized hunks of grilled meat complemented with a decently-spiced gravy. I liked that it wasn’t too sweet.
29th CHICKEN SATAY
RESTORAN S DOUBLE ONE S11 美食中心 , Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur
Smokey, grilled fatty, poultry on a stick. Under normal circumstances, I would’ve picked at the fat and the soot but today was not a normal day and so I tried to maximize my enjoyment of what I had and went all the way. It really is quite tasty when you stop thinking about what you’re eating. Gravy was super-spicy and yet I couldn’t stop and got more of it from the lady who was also really nice about it.
