With the full barrage of Peranakan cooking found on its menu, Chilli Padi is your answer for authentic Straits Chinese cuisine. Most dishes come with a healthy dose, and rightfully so, of chilli so a strong palate will come in useful.

Ayam buah keluak, babi ponteh, and itek tim form the core of the Straits Chinese cuisine and is presented in all its unabashed rich authenticity. Other specialities available are their Laksa, Mee Siam, Fried Mee Siam, Fish Maw Soup as well as Kueh Pai Ti. While the Sambal Ikan and the Squid with Sambal offer seafood alternatives, chicken lovers, have the Nonya Chicken Curry, and the Ayam Sio (chicken cooked with coriander and taucheo paste). Leave room for the desserts too. Durian Chendol, Sago Pudding with palm sugar, Nonya Kueh, Cheng Teng, Bobor Cha Cha, and the deliciously flavoured Pulot Hitam are certainly worth a try.

Chilli Padi Nonya Catering ensures you a wonderful feasting time with choices of the regular catering menus, the unique Nonya Food and even a Nonya Hawker Fair where the staff will be around to serve your guests. They cater for almost all occasions and will provide you with batik tablecloths, food warmers and necessities to make your event not just a success but also, an unforgettable one. What’s more, you can even opt to add a pinch of porcelain ware to spice up the ambience for the total Peranakan feel.

Editor’s note:
Went twice to Chilli Padi Nonya Cafe opposite the Bugis Junction. Try it for authentic peranakan cuisine. Hoped there was more choice of dishes though.
