Kaki lima means “five feet” in Indonesian, a nod to the five-foot-wide footpaths where street vendors once set up their carts. The founders grew up eating from those carts, and the menu is their quick, everyday take on the food they remember.
Look for nasi gila, the stir-fried “crazy rice”, rubber noodles and bala-bala vegetable fritters. The stall is in the food court of RMIT’s Building 14 on Bowen Street in the CBD.
