About Bara Food Simei
Bara Food operates a branch at Eastpoint Mall in Simei, in Singapore's eastern region, located at unit #01-12, 3 Simei Street 6. The restaurant is MUIS halal certified and open daily from 11:30 AM to 9:00 PM, and can be reached at +65 8182 6876 or through its website.
The restaurant is built around a single signature format: nasi bakar, rice mixed with herbs and spices, wrapped in banana leaf, and grilled to develop a smoky aroma before serving. This is paired with a choice of proteins prepared in the Indonesian grilling and frying styles common to home cooking, including ayam bakar (grilled chicken glazed in a sweet sauce and served with sambal matah, a raw shallot and chili condiment) and ayam goreng serundeng or cabe ijo (fried chicken topped with either a spiced coconut serunding or a green chili sauce). Each set is typically served with crispy tofu and tempeh, a side salad known as lalapan, and crackers made from melinjo, a nut common in Indonesian cooking.
Beyond the grilled rice sets, the menu includes a la carte dishes such as gado-gado, a mixed vegetable salad in peanut dressing, and soto betawi, a Jakarta style beef soup served with potatoes and tomatoes. Drinks include fizzy Indonesian style beverages and desserts such as es campur, a shaved ice dessert with mixed fruit and jelly.
The Simei branch is one of several Bara Food locations in Singapore, alongside an earlier outlet in Tanjong Pagar. The Eastpoint Mall setting offers more indoor and outdoor seating than the brand's original Tanjong Pagar location, and the branch is close to Simei MRT station, making it accessible to residents and workers in the eastern part of the island without requiring a trip into the city centre.
The restaurant markets its grilled rice format as a point of difference from the more common fried or steamed rice served at other Indonesian restaurants in Singapore, and the Simei outlet has drawn a steady base of repeat customers from nearby residential estates since opening.
