About Shalom Kingsford

Shalom Kingsford delivers fiery halal Indonesian comfort food packed with the nostalgic heat of home. Run as a brisk counter-order spot on Anzac Parade, it feeds hungry students and expats seeking hefty plates without high prices. Charred chicken satay comes smothered in thick peanut sauce, while fried eggplant and tender beef ribs arrive beside mounds of steamed rice. The signature draw is the uncompromising house sambal—sharp, vibrant, and hot enough to satisfy serious chili fiends—best balanced by a glass of ice cendol dawet.

  • Halal-Certified Menu: Certified halal Indonesian cooking spanning smoky grilled chicken to rich beef soups.
  • Uncompromising Sambal: Sharp, fiery house chili packs serious heat and is available to buy for takeaway.
  • Fast Value Dining: Hefty portions of staples like satay and fried chicken paired with counter ordering and quick service.

    The chicken is juicy and charred, and the sauce is perfect—flavourful and moreish with a barbequed aroma—goes well with chicken; even better with rice.
