Sambal Kampung — Restaurant in Melbourne

I ordered from ubereats here - but then I received a completely different order, also one of the packaging lid got quite a hole at the corner 🥴 Might’ve got my order swapped with other customer’s order. *Just realised now that apparently the plastic bag has my name on it (photo attached), so not the uber driver’s mistake. Was quite upsetting, but I’m hungry already and I don’t mind with the food, so.. I tried it. I got chicken ribs with egg fried rice & fried kueh teow delivered to me. Chicken ribs already got a bit soggy so wasn’t crispy anymore, but taste-wise not too bad. I do like the egg fried rice tho, the subtle yet fragrant taste complements the chicken ribs very well. Or maybe they put MSG on it that makes you keep eating it hahahah 😂 The kueh teow was surprisingly bland and has no taste at all except for the fish cake, hmmm.. will not have this anymore here 🥴 Portion wise,...

On 2nd Jan 2022, we went to Sambal Kampung Edgewater and was again let down by poor non- existent service. We stood at the sign that says Wait to be seated, did our check ins but only to have an older staff asked If we are alright and then tended to the fish tank. We waited there confused and asked if they want to serve us or not to which they said if we want a table they will set it up. If we want a table? No we are there to inconvenient them. We turned around and left.

Below's review was 3 years ago. Pretty average the food. Nothing to shout about. The staff could use a little smile and friendliness. There were about 5 tables filled for lunch and when it was down to us and another table, the aircon was turned off, probably to save energy but totally inconsiderate of us as their patrons. It was getting warm so we quickly...

Found this place by accident! But a very good find! 1st customer at 11am and we ordered KL hokkein mee with seafood, the beef stir fried with flat rice noodles and lor bak. The hokkein mee came out first. Good but lacking in wok hei , pork lard and a little too watery for me. I don’t know if it’s because this is the 1st dish to come and the stove wasn’t ‘jet’ hot enough but the beef noodle dish is the total opposite! Work of a master! I haven’t had a noodle cooked so perfectly before! Absolutely mastery of the wok! Fried so well, yet the food was still delicate! The beansprouts was crunchy yet juicy! A beaut!!!! The wok hei aroma was so enticing! The sambal accompanying the lor bak was also as good. Not oily, and gives you the appropriate kick! I will be back to try...
