Sambal reminds me of Bumbung and AFC Ali both located in Seapark but maybe a touch better depending on preference. A pretty good plate of Nasi Lemak with a very good fried chicken. Their drinks are superb as well. This place is also quite wallet friendly. There’s a satay stall nearby that serves great chicken and lamb satay. Will return to try the Pasembur and other offerings soon (like their roti, murtabak, maggi, indomie) which look enticing.
Unassuming place with many locals. The must order everyone gets is the nasi lemak with one whole fried drumstick. The rice is fragrant but not as fragrant as v park or wnjo. However, the fried chicken is amazing. It is comparable with v park. It is fragrant and very juicy. They will give you two types of chilli, one is the sweeter one with onions inside and the other one is a slightly spicier chilli. The rojak was pretty good as well! Prices are reasonable the rojak was 8rm and the nasi lemak was around 11rm? They dont open early as well, from what i know is only around after night time.
Attentive service despite big stalls with tables and chairs everywhere. Fried Chicken is a must order. Tried their Maggie Goreng too. This is a total failed lar... Roti canai is good as it is freshly made upon order. During peak hours, need to park slightly further away which is not an issue. Anyhow, definitely will be back again for more.
Great spot for late night supper, the options I saw are nasi lemak (all chicken thigh), murtabak, and rojak. There might be more but I im not sure as there is no menu displayed and I didn’t ask for a menu. Lots a young people hangout here. There is also a ochien (fried egg with oyster) truck beside. The ordering is very fast, once you sit down the waiter will take your order and serve you the food almost instantly. The nasi lemak is served with a whole chicken leg with rice, one sweet sambal and one savory sambal, fried egg, peanuts and Ilan bilis. The fried egg is inconsistent as we ordered two plates and one came with a runny yolk and the other is with a cooked yolk, I guess it’s random. The chicken is abit dry and overcooked like most mentioned. What I disliked is the rice, it’s not the typical coconut fragrant rice but a yellow rice with not much fragrance to it. I really liked the savory sambal, but the amount they provided is quite little. Sitting outside is better as it’s more airy and cooling. I saw people bringing pet dogs as well so it’s pet friendly. The nasi lemak is RM11. When you’re done just have them calculate your total and pay, there is qr pay available but you have to walk to the counter to scan it. The parking is abit hard to find as it’s a residential area with no proper parking space but there is proper parking space across the street opposite the Chinese food court. Overall a good experience and would return if I am craving for late night nasi lemak.
Delicious nasi lemak, fried chicken, roti canai. Good service. Quite hot during noon. Should be nice in the evening
Nasi lemak comes with whole leg for RM 13. Their fried whole leg chicken is very crispy and special. A different choice than bumbung. They also serve roti cheese special and it is really filling and nice. Update: the place gets packed and super busy on the eve of public holiday, so expect a wait and no table. We had to get our own nasi lemak from the stall instead, still better than waiting . Update02: not sure if it is a blessing to get a parking right in front this time (usually it's full) because u get cars double parking your way and they are not alert that the car they are blocking has gone in waiting. Pity the car in front of me waited even longer than me. They even attempt to reverse to make space to go out. Let's talk about it's food. Today's chicken is abit burnt, the meat inside is less juicy but the food were served less than 5 minutes of my order and they cater to us within 5 min after we sat down. I forgot to mention previously that their nasi lemak comes with 2 types of chillies, one spicier sambal and one sweet. Both are good.
I’ve bought nasi lemak from this place many times and generally enjoyed it. However, today I ordered three takeaway packs. Two had the usual chicken thigh and drumstick, but one was noticeably different and missing the drumstick. Unlike usual, I wasn’t standing nearby to observe them packing — I was seated and browsing my phone. If you’re buying takeaway, I strongly recommend checking the contents before leaving. It’s disappointing, but it seems you can’t always trust them to pack everything correctly.
