After a long search for the best nasi lemak in Singapore, I finally discovered a hidden gem that’s exceeded all expectations. While the queue can be quite long, don’t be discouraged—service is fast, and the food is absolutely worth the wait. The rice itself is the perfect base, cooked with just the right amount of fragrant coconut milk, delivering a rich, creamy texture that pairs beautifully with every other component of the dish.
The crispy chicken wings are always freshly fried, golden-brown perfection on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. But the real star of the dish is the sambal. It strikes a perfect balance between sweet and spicy—just enough heat to give you a kick, without being overwhelming. It’s the kind of sambal that elevates the entire dish, making every bite more enjoyable than the last.
I also love the little extras that come with the meal—crispy peanuts and slices of otak add a nice crunch and additional flavors that round out the experience. Even with the generous portions of rice and sambal, I found myself wanting more because the flavors are so addictive. The quality of the food has been consistently excellent over the years, which speaks to the stall’s dedication to maintaining a high standard.
What makes this place truly special is how they’ve managed to keep the prices affordable while still delivering on taste and quality. For just a few dollars, you’re treated to a hearty and flavorful meal that’s hard to beat. Having been a regular customer here for over 20 years, I can confidently say that this is the kind of place you can always rely on for a satisfying and nostalgic meal. I’m already looking forward to my next visit, especially to try their rendang, which I’ve heard is just as fantastic as the rest of the menu.
