"One of the best places in Skudai for spicy lovers! Ayam Gepuk Express never disappoints. The chicken was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and that sambal... absolutely fiery and addictive The portion was generous and the price was reasonable. The also offers free unlimited refills for rice and sambal. The staffs were polite and the service was fast too. If you enjoy spicy, flavourful food, this is definitely a must-try! Honestly I'm so addicted to it already"

"This plate of nasi ayam gepuk looks quite appetizing and well-prepared! Here are some thoughts: What looks good: • Chicken (ayam gepuk): Nicely browned and marinated, indicating it’s likely flavorful. The texture looks crispy on the outside, which is ideal. • Rice: Nicely molded and portioned, not too dry or too wet — just right for pairing with the spicy sambal. • Sambal: Generous portion and vibrant red, suggesting it’s freshly made and packs a punch. • Sides: Includes fried tofu, fresh cabbage, and cucumber, which are standard and appreciated additions to balance the richness and heat. Minor comments: • The cabbage could look a bit fresher (slightly wilted), but that’s minor — it’s often served raw or blanched for crunch and cooling. • Presentation is simple and clean, though perhaps a drizzle of sauce or a garnish could elevate the visual appeal further. Overall: Yes — it looks good! Classic, hearty, and spicy — exactly what you’d want from a plate of nasi ayam gepuk. If the sambal is as fiery as it looks and the chicken is tender inside, you’re in for a satisfying meal."

"For ayam gepuk lovers, this is the place for you! They sell ayam gepuk and bubur gepuk (haven't tried, but I reckon it's porridge with gepuk sambal). You can choose whether to get the ala carte dish, or combo (nasi ayam gepuk + 1 drink of your choice). The combos vary based on the sides you get with the ayam gepuk - these sides include tempe, tauhu goreng, kobis, kobis goreng etc. They offer sambal with three levels of spiciness (normal, spicy, and extra spicy). Rice and sambal can be refilled for free, on top of an already generous amount given to you Be mindful that the sambal has peanuts, so if you're allergic to peanuts, then sadly the sambal is not for you The restaurant is spacious enough to bring your family, with bright lighting. I will definitely be visiting again, probably as a regular customer because their food is just so good. Scrumptious!"
