LA's Hidden Indonesian Gem with Amazing Chicken Skewers π₯
γOne Bite & I'm Hooked!γ After falling in love with the flavors at Ipoh Kitchen last time, I was craving similar Southeast Asian vibes in LA β so I headed to Borneo Kalimantan Cuisine in Alhambra. Went around 6 PM and didnβt have to wait (so lucky! π). The menu has photos for all the popular dishes, making it super easy to decide what to order! πΈ Top Pick: Chicken Satay Skewers Tender, smoky, and served with a rich peanut sauce β the combo is absolutely addictive! Youβll wish you ordered more. π₯ Stir-Fried Beef Ho Fun & Fried Rice Both are generously portioned and loaded with ingredients β perfect for sharing with two or more people. Laksa/Curry Noodles The noodles have a great chewiness that I really enjoyed, and the coconut-curry broth is creamy but not heavy. π₯₯π This spot was actually recommended by Michelin back in 2019! While Ipoh Kitchen feels a bit more refined, Borneo offers hearty, satisfying portions β ideal for a casual, flavor-packed meal. β Must-Order List (My Ranking): 1. Chicken Satay β donβt miss it! 2. Laksa β bouncy noodles, rich broth 3. Beef Ho Fun β large portion, very satisfying 4. Fried Rice β great value, loaded with ingredients π‘ Pro Tips: β’ π Go around 6 PM to avoid lines. β’ π₯ Dishes are large β best for sharing with 2β3 people. β’ π½οΈ If you prefer something more refined, try Ipoh Kitchen.
