Ncek Legenda Noodle Bar, Kelapa Gading — Restaurant in Jakarta

I finally tried the infamous Ncek Legenda, a long-standing noodle shop that truly lives up to its "Legend" status! We went on a busy weekend morning, and the place was absolutely packed. We had to wait in the seating area for about 30 minutes before we finally got a table—so patience is key! While waiting, we ordered a snack: the Fried Meatball. Honestly, the taste was pretty average; the mix felt about 1:1 flour to meat, which made it feel a bit expensive for what it was. However, everything changed once our main order arrived: the President Portion of Crispy Pork Belly (330g Meat) with Chewy (Karet) Noodle. The portion was absolutely huge—we were amazed we managed to demolish the entire thing! The Pork Belly was the real star: incredibly crispy, tender, and filled with juicy fat. The Karet noodles were perfectly chewy and well-seasoned. Given the sheer amount of fat and oil from the meat, the accompanying soup was a necessary and welcome relief to balance the richness. Overall, the place is great. Despite being a little cramped (and someone accidentally spilling a drink near me!), the staff were quick and responsive, cleaning the area immediately, which was a huge plus for service. The price may be a little steep, but the huge portion and quality justify the "legend" status. Plus, they sometimes offer student discounts, so keep an eye out! Highly recommend for a truly massive and...

Mie Hongkong Special Camat (Smallest Portion)

Mixed Toppings pork 🐷🐖 and chicken 🐓🐔

For the taste, I don't recommend Mie Hongkong. Since it's bit dry and not oily. I'd prefer oily noodle

I Love 💜💜 Mie Special Gubernur. I recommend this menu. 🤩🤩 (Big Portion- It has bigger Portion than Gubernur). When I ordered Mie Special Gubernur, the toppings are full on the top of the bowl 😍🤤🤤

Mixed Toppings pork 🐷🐖🐷 and chicken 🐔🐓🐔

The oil and the spices mixed well. 🤤🤤🤤

I ate here already for the second time and still planning to taste the noodle for the third time 😍🤤

For the price.. In Grab apps For Mie Special Camat Rp 49.000,-

Mie Special Gubernur (If you eat with small Portion, this can be consumed for 2 people) Rp 90.000,-

The price is not included for the drinks.

The place is not quite big, so make sure when come here, only when you're hungry and only for eating.

We can't hang out for hours in this place. Or else other people will wait for their turn to eat.

For Noddle Lover and Pork Lover.. You should try...

Tried it on Saturday, i considered the curly noodle as average but OKAY.. . the soup was tasty because you can really taste the broth in it.... might be a bit salty for some ppl but since i like salty food then it tasted perfect for me. I think the main attraction of this place is the noodle's toppings. They have 5 main toppings : grounded pork, grilled pork (sio bak) , chasiu, bacon and chicken all in ONE bowl. You can also choose the size of your noodle depending on your ability to eat. Most of all the noodle was good. I haven't tried salmon and chicken teriyaki toping though, maybe i will on my next visit 😉

March 24th 2019 i visited this place again today and tried their swikiaw, i must say that the swikiaw is VERY GOOD for the value of money.. for 15K you'll get 4pcs of them and you can really taste the mixture of pirk and shrimp in it.

Another menu which i tried was their hainamese rice with smoked duck and i mustvsay that i didn't regret it. Keep up the...
