"The crown jewel, though, was nasi goreng gila, which translates to “crazy fried rice.” No one really knows who invented it, but most people point to a single neighborhood in Central Jakarta, Menteng, where at night you’ll find dozens of sellers—including a particularly well-known one named Nasi Goreng Obama, for its proximity to the school the American president attended in his youth. Nasi goreng gila, a hodgepodge of whatever’s on hand—sausage, corned beef, offal, about a pint of chopped chilies—is basically Jakarta on a plate: Chaotic, overwhelming, addictive. It’s the kind of dish that cuts through booze like a cold shower. It became our go-to on late nights—everyone had an opinion on where to find the best stuff, but we were generous in giving each its turn. “Nasi g” became shorthand for the last stop before heading home."

The fried rice and eggs were already precooked so its not made in the spot..

Be careful to eat at this place. Really BAD service. The fellow doesn’t use “first come first serve” rule, the one comes early and orders early, is NOT served early. It is ridiculous to wait for the nasi goreng for 30 minutes, I came at 4:47pm, the fellow already began frying the rice, so I ordered immediately, but no fired rice was served to me until 5:17pm. The fellow asked me whether I wanted nasi putih gila instead. In addition, the hygiene condition is so poor, when I came to see what the fellow was doing to find the reason why the nasi goreng I ordered had not been ready, I saw flies flying on the rice in the big wok, this is the main reason I cancelled my order, the second reason is the thing I mentioned earlier (the fellow doesn’t use ‘first come first serve’ rule). When I ordered the nasi goreng, the fellow didn’t inform me I was supposed to wait for 30 minutes, if I knew that, absolutely I would not order. The funny thing was when I ordered the nasi goreng, only two people were waiting, but the two funny ones kept ordering for their so called “relatives/friends”.🙃 For your guys information, some of the toppings on the menu are out of stock, eg. pete, mozzarella cheese. Surely won’t come again, a waste of time.👎

This cart looks like your average neighborhood "tek-tek" cart, but they provide a quick, comforting food. They create fried rice separately so when you order, they will put they pre made fried rice with the "Gila" topping (meatball, etc) & fried egg. Simple dish but tasty & delicious, can't seems to taste the spice & bit oily from the topping. I order "Nasi Goreng Gila Jumbo + Telor" costing 30k, more than enough to feed 2 people. I have no complain for this stall remembering their price point is friendly

A good place to grab a quick dinner at the heart of Jakarta. A portion of nasi gila will cost u around 20-35k and well the portion doesn’t disappoint, it was enough to fill your hungry after office tummy. The taste was kinda fair for me, it was ok 3.5 / 5. They already got the rice & sides ready to be served, so serving was lightning quick. The dining space are not proper, people are sitting curbside, some are eating the dish inside their car & some took away their dish. Parking spots are limited.

Go to place for Nasi Gila in Jakarta, well known for its cooking routine up to 100 portions. Queue always there but as the cook and server were quick, its not a long wait for most

Delicious, but greasy and oily. Toppings: sliced sausage, chicken meat, sliced meatballs, fried egg, crackers. Adequate normal portion for 1 person.

Great! Really good. Get it with the egg as well! The stand operators do not understand English however.
