This Hidden Eatery At Paya Lebar Serves Nasi Briyani In A Bamboo & It’s Cool AF

I‘m sure you would have had all kinds of Nasi Briyani before, and most of the time, they always come served to us in wrapped in a banana leaf or simply on an exotic plate, but never have we encountered Nasi Briyani served in a bamboo before.

Here at 99 Bistro, they serve Nasi Briyani right from the bamboo. Once you order it, the Nasi Briyani will come in the bamboo trunk, and the server will push the contents of the briyani right out from the bamboo trunk. 

Being the signature dish of the eatery, the Bamboo briyani comes with ingredients such as an Australian tender whole lamb shank, dum cooked with long grain basmati rice, clarified butter, fresh mint in a carefully chosen Bamboo Trunk from India. 

The ends of the bamboo trunk are wrapped with fresh Banana leaf to capture the aroma. The contents of the plate are then emptied onto your plates upon ordering.

Not only were the plump bits of basmati rice cooked till fragrant, the lamb shank was also marinated with a wondrous blend of spices from Karachi. 

For S$24 nett, the Lamb Shank Bamboo Briyani is served with Boiled Egg, Raitha & Salata Hara (Arabic Salsa). It also comes with the option of a Hot/Cold beverage of your choice, dessert and Hot Honey Lemon Ginger Water for you to wash down the meal.

The meal is perfect for sharing between 2 pax or more depending on your appetite!

Other than their Bamboo Briyani, they also have a plethora of Nasi Padang and Western dishes for you to take your pick from! The Nasi Padang Set, with the meat of your choice, sayur lodeh and egg, costs $5.50 whereas a 3 course Western set lunch only costs $8.90 – pretty affordable for the portions served! 

And since it’s located close to Paya Lebar MRT, it has also become one of the most-frequented lunch places for working adults alike.
