Bagus - Cairns

This is a rather make-shift stall located between two backpacker establishments near the top end of the Esplanade. Its appearance is akin to a warung – an Indonesian street food stall. My wife and I lunched here on Monday 24th July 2017. The ladies serving that day seemed friendly. We ordered a beef rendang with rice and sate chicken on fried rice. The rendang was spicy and well seasoned. The chilli sambal that came with the dish was stingingly hot. The dish came with salad and pickles. The four sticks of sate were quite delicious and the peanut sauce tasted just right with the correct amount of spiciness and sweetness. The fried rice was palatable, though slightly mushy. The dish came with a fried egg, salad and pickles. Our drinks comprised Es Campur and Banana Milkshake. The Es Campur had pieces of jackfruit, avocado, and seaweed jelly in a sweet rose syrup with condensed milk. The milkshake had a strong flavour of banana – quite yummy.

Me encanto. Los platos oxcilan los 10 u$s muy buebos tamaños si son de comer moderado se pueden conpartir. Esta frebte a los juegos de los niños en la playa.

Comimos con toda lq familia .la comida fue muy rica aunque para lo que es el lugar los precios no son baratos

The owner is very nice and chatty. The food all sounded great but my rice was mushy, and the chicken had a weird taste. Spice levels are higher than expected. I asked for a 3 and my mouth was burning. I normally eat spicy foods. This "3" was more like a "9". My friend ordered NO SPICE, but the dish was spicy. Our order took almost 40 minutes to be done. Long time to wait when there was no line late at night. The venue is a dive, but the prices are much higher than typical dives, even in a tourist area. Seating was outdoors - hot and humid. I like trying new exotic foods. This was an interesting experience but I wouldn't revisit it.

I ordered vegie fried noodles with seafood which costs around 14-15aud. You can see from the photo, there was almost no vegetable at all, I barely see a piece so how come it's called vegies noodle? Well, taste normal, I prefer Indomie instant noodles (which I can buy from Coles). One notice is that I ordered mild level of spicy but it's already very spicy so you may consider your appropriate level.
