Satay Kajang at Haji Samuri
Satay Kajang at Haji Samuri

Location: N02 59.6585 E101 47.1308 Kajang, Selangor

Getting there: The Satay Center off the Kajang Stadium.

Meal: Dinner

Entering the den of the satay captal of the world, one would notice the hyper competitive atmosphere. It seems like the battle for the popular boys in blue of Hj Samuri vs the boys in red of the others. Hj Samuri seems to dominate half the Satay Center and almost the entire crowd.

The trademark is the large chunky satay meat pieces. The thing I like is the separation of chili paste with peanut sauce; the spiciness of the peanut sauce can be adjusted according to one’s taste.

They ran out of “perut” or stomatch when I ordered, so I had 10 sticks of beef. Each stick (skewer) has large chunks of meat, so 10 is a lot. They have nasi impit and ketupat, your choice. The main difference is, the use of coconut leaf; traditional vs modern methods to make compressed rice. Ketupat being the traditional with coconut leaf and nasi impit being the modern using plastic.

The sticks can be sticky at times due to the sloppiness of mass production.

On the menu is a whole range of other kinds of meat (except pork). Most exotic meat is seasonal.

Rating:

Food: 8/10
Service: 10/10
Value: 8/10

Remarks: Would rate food better if the food came hot. They have a few branches here and there.

I went to have this Kajang Satay last Thursday (22/05/2008)

The only difference Satay Kajang from normal satay is the amount of meat,is definately more and of course you pay more for it too. The peanut sauce is just ok! ok-lah. I find the place and the ambience congested and not so welcoming at night at all.

Cat's all over the place and to my horror, there was a cat under my table and my mom was trying to chase it off but the cat seem not to be bothered by our presence until I had to call one of the waiters to chase it off. To my shock the waiter carried the cat away from under our table and never bother to wash his hands.

Sadly, after that he went to serve food for a new order by a customer. That's the kind of SERVICE and Satay you get from MALAYSIA's Best SATAY - Haji Samuri.

If Haji Samuri wanna practice hygienic kitchen and service, please get rid of the cats and teach your workers to be hygienic conscious too. Even their uniforms look so dirty.

I notice your kitchen is of course CLEAN. Kudos to you! If you can't keep the cats out, please build glass walls to make it more nicer looking and of course cleaner too. Please install air-cons so that the customers feel more comfortable while enjoying your satay.

Hope my dissatisfaction will be taken into your consideration and by the way, I spent RM61.10 for your satays.

So don't you think I deserve a better service than having a cat under out table and other cats running all around tables in your shop and not to mention your waiter who obviously not aware of germs. We left immediately after what we witness for we lost our appetite. I regretted ordering a take away.

Hi Mrs.Ang..

Actually I agree what you said about their service.Just now I went to Kajang Satay Haji Samuri and really dissappointed,not much I can eleborate.2 words to descibe "BAD SERVICE".

If they really want to become the Best Restaurant in Malaysia,please change the lazy and tidak apa attitude.

Lastly,bro is that you have share in this restaurant or you very kamcing with the bosses.I never see any of the food review have 10/10 on the service and sadly this you said is 10/10.

Dissapointed on yuor blog..

Sorry to say that... But lastly i realize that the service in this restaurant getting worst and worst.. Was in one of the restaurant 2 weeks ago, no one came and take the order even i had sat down about half an hour.

I just pissed off and left the restaurant without any comment.

I hope the person in charge take note of this matter. Because i believe this incident not only happened to me but many other out there..
Killbill - bad,bad and really bad   | 60.48.168.xxx | 2008-10-21 21:51:20
as a satays lover myself, its really sad for me and others to give comment bout this.
I stay near to Awan Besar R&R and often i been there for Samuri's satay. Everytime the word I can apply here is bad service from the workers which I'm not sure whether they are Msian or PATI. Agree indeed of all the comments above bout the attitude, the politeness and the laziness.
2nd, is the food quality,sometimes the meat either chicken,beef or others was already expired and not meant to be eat by public. To Haj Samuri,LOOK into this issue and MAKE SURE before someone lodge a legal action on you.
3rd, why my satay is not hot. it seems like the satay is just taken out from a cooler box and preheat it for a while. It wasnt satays if it's present like that.and there's no onion too! Where is all gone the traditional way of a SATAY.
Overall, satay samuri is being too commercialize without ensuring the cleanliness,the quality and the good customer service ethic that should being practice by all of his unknown workers.There's no point you hired so many number of workers who dont perform well and dont honor their responsibilities as a satay worker.

One of my friend went to this stall & ask for more satay gravy. As the owner is tooo busy to attend to her, she decided to take the gravy herself. To her horror, as she scoop the gravy in the pot, she found a SANITARY PAD in it!! She was furios & confront the owner. D owner wanted to bribe her of RM500 to shut her up but she refused & walked away.

The story dat I want to relate may seemed as a shock but its the TRUTH!!! I went to Haji Samuri Satay Kajang one evening with my frenz to savour the famous satay as mentioned by lots. At 1 point, we finished the gravy as its sooo tasty. I approached the onwer for more gravy but he

my friends and I went to the branch near Tmn Melati. Let me tell u:-
1) The satay was stone cold and the meat was not throughly cooked. It was still raw in the middle. The gravy was nothing to tell anyone about.
2) The service was really really bad. Even by malaysian standard it was bad. We had to call the waiter 5 times to remind them of our drinks order, which never arrive regardless. We just paid for what we ate and left.
I'll never ever go near any one of Hj Samuri's satay ever again. I'll be my first and last experience. Thank you very much.

Satay Kajang banyak RECYCLE...

Dear Kawan-kawan,

Kalau kita pergi ke Kajang, semua orang tidak melepaskan peluang untuk
makan satay kajang di sana . Terutama sekali Satay Haji Samuri sebab
ianya sudah terkenal seantero Malaysia .

Sekarang ni tak payahlah pergi jejauh ke Kajang, makan saja di Awan Besar
(tempat rehat di highway Kesas), sebab Haji Samuri dah buka
branch di sana .

Untuk itu teman nak berkongsi pengalaman (yang mungkin tidak boleh
dilupakan) selepas memakan Satay Haji Samuri.Pada hari minggu yang lalu,
teman berserta dengan adik teman (2 family) baru pulang dari Sungai
Chongkak.

Dalam perjalanan pulang, kami bercadang untuk singgah di Awan
Besar untuk makan malam - apalagi, sataylah!!! (jawab anak-anak).

Masing-masing semuanya tengah kelaparan sebab sehari suntuk bermandi-manda
di sungai. Setibanya di sana , kami pun order seperti biasa (masa tu
orang yang makan dan bawa pulang punyalah ramai). Kami pun makanlah dengan
penuh berselera sekali tanpa menghiraukan orang sekeliling.

Setelah kenyang, suami teman pergi ke surau untuk solat maghrib & adik
ipar teman ke toilet & hisap rokok sebentar. Lebih kurang 15 minit
kemudian kamipun bayar bil & berlalu dari Awan Besar (nak balik rumah
awal, sebab esok anak-anak nak sekolah)..

Dalam perjalanan pulang, teman dah rasa ngantuk sebab kenyang sangat,
tiba-tiba adik teman menegur suaminya 'Papa, tadi makan satay banyak
betul!!' Terus adik ipar teman cerita...

'Kalau korang, dengar cerita ni, mesti tak nak makan satay kajang
lagi...........' Semua yang ada dalam kereta tanya dia

'Kenapa??' Dia pun cerita, setelah dia pergi ke toilet, dia pergi hisap
rokok di tepi toilet tu dekat belakang kedai Satay Haji Samuri (kedainya
di sebelah tepi sekali). Dia memerhatikan seorang pekerja sedang
menyatukan sisa-sisa kuah satay (yang biasanya dalam mangkuk kecik-kecik)
ke dalam sebuah mangkuk besar.

Seorang pekerja lagi sedang mengumpulkan lidi satay yang telah digunakan
orang ke dalam satu bekas besar. Adik ipar teman ni secara
spontan bertanya kepada pekerja yang sedang menuang sisa kuah satay
tadi (sebab jaraknya lebih dekat dari pekerja yang sedang mengumpul lidi
satay).

'Dik, kuah ni nak buang ke?' Jawab pekerja tadi,
'Taklah bang, mana boleh buang, kuah ni mahal tau, kita pakai balik.....'
Adik ipar teman, terkejut betul dengan jawapan tadi, dia pun tanya lagi .
'Lidi-lidi tu pun tak buang ke?'

Jawab pekerja tadi, 'Ialah bang, kita cucuk satay balik' Pada mulanya
adik ipar teman, ingatkan pekerja tadi bergurau saja, rupa-rupanya
pekerja tu bercakap benar.

Kemudian, dia lihat pekerja itu terus bangun dan membawa sisa kuah yang
telah disatukan ke dalam mangkuk besar tadi ke dalam kedai (mungkin untuk
di hidangkan semula).

Setelah melihat kejadian tadi, adik ipar ku pun terus berlalu dan memegang
perutnya sebab dah kenyang makan satay.........

Kami di dalam kereta yang mendengar cerita tersebut sungguh terkejut
dengan cerita tadi. Teman berapa kali tanya adik ipar teman,
'Betul ke ni, Fozi.....' (terasa loya pun ada). 'Betullah',
jawabnya . Selepas itu bermacam-macamlah perkataan keluar
untuk melepaskan perasaan geram & marah.

' Cuba bayangkan kita makan sisa kuah satay tu, entah-entah Cina , India ,
semuanya di campurkan sekali..ee gelinya!' 'Ialah, kita manalah tahu
kalau orang yang makan ada penyakit HIV ke, penyakit yang senang
berjangkit,'

'Lidinya orang dah gigit-gigit lepas tu kita pulak gigit....' 'Patutlah,
kita makan sedap aje.....' 'Agak-agaknya, dia malas nak masak selalu kuah
tu, diam main tambah-tambah aje....' 'Entah-entah, itu
dia punya petua untukpelarisnya kot................'

'Wallahuallam bissawab'
Suami temanpun cakap untuk meredakan suasana -
well, sekarang kita dah tahu, lepas ini tak janganlah makan lagi Satay
Haji Samuri dan kita sebarkan berita ni kat internet supaya orang lain pun
sedar.....Itulah ceritanya, so kalau you all nak makan satay, kenalah
berhati-hati.

Tapi yang nyata, teman tak akan makan Satay Kajang lagi

buat satay, bila datang satay dah siap bakar. masak ke tak masak, diorang peduli ape. banyak kali pegi, beberapa kali tgh makan satay, darah dari daging dan ayah tu keluar. dah la daging liat. mintak buat kasi garing sket, haram dia amik pedulik. satay kalau makan tanpa kuah, tak sedap.

kalau kata susah nk bisnes jual satay, tak yah jual. alang2 nk bisnes, buat la kasi betul2. nk kasi org makan, bukan kucing makan.

kalau skali atau 2 kali jadi kt aku ni, bleh la terima sebab manusia tak lari dari buat kesilapan. tapi kalau banyak kali, itu bukan silap lagi. itu bongok.

sekian luahan dari hati aku yg tak puas hati. salam..

Salam Sejahtera.

Walaupun saya tahu website ini bukanlah tempat yang sesuai untuk saya beri komen, tetapi saya ingin berkongsi berkenaan produk dan perkhidmatan SHS hasil pengalaman saya.

1. Produk - Sate ayam ok. Tapi sate daging liat dan kering. 20 kali saya pergi, 19 kali mesti liat, 1 kali jer ok. Setiap kali saya beli sate daging, setiap kali tu lah saya berdoa supaya dapat yang tak liat.. tapi hampa. pernah saya luahkan juga kat penjaga kaunter wang berkenaan masalah yang saya hadapi tentang keberangkalian yang tinggi utk saya dapat sate daging yang liat, tetapi masih tidak ada tindakan apa2 pun. Saya amat titik beratkan sate daging sebab isteri dan mak mertua saya tidak makan ayam. Disebabkan masalah

I went to the Kajang Branch 2 days ago and I swear I won't go again. 1/4 of the satays with raw meat, the satay is not hot at all, for some sticks half of the meat is scorched.

This is the worst satay I ever eat.

Dear guys and girls, Hj Samuri is not the only satay seller in Kajang. I'm from Kajang so I know where's the best satay in town... Hj Samuri was once the best, however the quality gone bad since it commercialized.. To all satay fans here, I strongly recommend you to try Restoran Yus Sate Kajang and Restoran Malaysia. If you do not know how to go, ask any Kajang citizens and they will show you.. They are also well known, for the originality and delicious satays. ;-)

Citer ku begini, lebih kurang 3 minggu lepas (early January 2010) sy ke gerai satay Kajang tepi sungai (Medan Satay Riverside), masa tu ada ramai pekerja ambil order, bayar selepas makan. Hari ni (2 Feb 2010) sy singgah lagi ke sana, akan tetapi suasana dah berubah, hanya 2 orang pekerja menghantar pesanan, pulak tu kena ke kaunter cashier buat pesanan, byr dulu termasuk cukai perkhidmatan 5%, kebetulan pergi sorang, memula duduk lepas 10 minit tiada sorang pun datang ambil order, nampak sorang pekerja baru lepas hantar pesanan orang lain, mintak ambil order, sy diarahkan ke cashier, bila cashier tanya nombor meja, kena sy tunjukkan meja sekian-sekian (tiada nombor la tu) lepas byr, pergi ke meja tu semula orang lain lak duduk, kena duduk meja sebelah, pastu pekerja hantar pesanan meja asal ku, yg duduk sekeluarga terpinga, dia order untuk 4 orang, sampai sorang punya, sib baik aku nampak, kena bagitau pekerja tu, haru betul.
Kalau korang nak makan kat sini hanya 2 jenis satay je ada (ayam dan daging) lelain toksah tanya. Mana pergi satay rusa ??, ikan ??, perut ?? babat?? kambing ?? dll, patutla akhir2 ni macam kurang orang kat sana. Adakah ni petunjuk Satay Samuri Kajang semakin maju mcm KFC or McD? yg juga kenakan gov tax 5% atau ???

Saya duduk kat JB. bila pergi ke KL jika ada masa, saya pasti cari satay kajang Samsuri. Kekadang tu, sebelum pergi ke KL, saya dan keluarga dah set nak makan satay Samsuri. Itu dulu, sejak kebelakangan ini, saya dapati servis teruk, satay separuh panas separuh sejuk, meja kotor, satay kering tidak berminyak. Jika sekali terkena mungkin boleh dimaafkan, tetapi dah tiga kali terkena, mana boleh tahan. Terus terang saya meluat, kecewa dan saya tidak halalkan duit yang saya bayar bil satay
