Hjh Maimunah Restaurant and Catering

🍽️ HJ MAIMUNAH: A Taste of Tradition with a Modern Twist Step into the vibrant world of HJ MAIMUNAH, where heritage recipes meet bold flavors and fresh innovation. As proud contributors to this culinary tapestry, we bring three standout dishes that reflect our passion for quality and taste: • 🧄 Fried Tofu – Crispy on the outside, silky within. Our tofu is delicately seasoned and fried to golden perfection, offering a satisfying crunch with every bite. A humble classic elevated with finesse. • 🥩 Beef Rendang – Rich, tender, and deeply spiced. Our beef is slow-cooked in a fragrant blend of coconut milk and traditional Malay spices, delivering a melt-in-your-mouth experience that lingers long after the last bite. • 🐟 Grilled Sea Bass – Fresh from the market, kissed by fire. Our sea bass is marinated in a zesty blend of herbs and grilled to smoky perfection, balancing crisp skin with succulent flesh. A dish that speaks of coastal charm and culinary care. Whether you’re here for a quick lunch or a celebratory feast, our trio of dishes brings something special to the table. At HJ MAIMUNAH, every plate tells a story—and we’re proud to be part of it.

I love this area, very quiet and peaceful if you’re having early breakfast here. First time tasting their bakso and daging Soto (custom request) and it’s the best😭 Used to eat at their restaurant at Joo chiat when I was 15-16? For cultural week excursion and their food reminds me of my early teenage years and hasn’t changed.

Bought a ‘surprise meal’ through Yindii, a $8 value for $4. Turned up, and they didn’t tell me what it was, but when inasked what I got they gave a curt one word answer: “chicken”. Got home, turned out to be one of the most flavourful, aromatic and well-balanced curries I’ve ever had! Wow! Impressed! Plenty of greens too. Yummy stuff!

Went there on a weekday afternoon for lunch, downstairs are very busy so we got a table upstairs that are nice and quiet. Love the malay/indo food options. i ate ayam goreng, kangkung and masak lemak. Stomach is full and satisfied with the taste. Would come here again, just a bit hectic with a lot of people when ordering food but otherwise service is very fast.

SUPER og, nothing here missed. portions are pretty generous, i can't say there's a best dish bc everything is nice. quite a queue on weekends, so do come early!!

Great taste, cozy vibes, and 100% halal. Will definitely come back !! The atmosphere was cozy with a modern halal food and the staff was very friendly and helpful in explaining the dishes. The portions were generous, and the prices were reasonable for the quality.

Had no idea about Malay/Indo cuisine but it was a great experience for a first timer to select the dishes to takeaways. With some help from a kind lady who is a regular customer does made us comfortable, good and delicious. All our overseas siblings truly enjoyed it very much.

Authentic nasi padang restaurant with a wide selection of delectable dishes. Highly recommend the grilled chicken ayam bakar and the stingray asam pedas. The bergedil was also very well done and make sure you compliment the meal with a good serving of sambal balachan

Really really good Malay food. In general, westerners are a little grossed out by restaurants where the food is out in front of you, mainly due to connotations of the bad cafeteria food at we ate school. Not really sure about the pricing, but I ordered two mains and rice, and I think it cost around $4.The tofu with green beans and chili sauce and the chicken dish I had were both awesome. In general the sauces that Malays cook with are awesome: a REALLY good balance of spicy, sweet, and salty. Note that a lot of the people here were big on ordering the whole cooked fish This place is off a side road in Kampong Glam, Singapore's old Malay hub (I could be wrong, but it's a bit more of a tourist spot than anything else now). It was pretty close to my hostel, so I don't know how far it is from the MRT- maybe a 10 or 15 minute walk from Bugis station? This place gets crackin for lunch, so if there's no seating in the main room, have a look at the dining area next door.
