$5.50 for lunch. You could say it's one of the cheapest in the CBD (Central Business District), but the amount of ingredients given is really... *shakes head*. I wanted to try the set meal, but most customers here order à la carte, so I followed suit. The price of the set meal is about the same as ordering individually; I guess it just makes the queue move faster if you order the set meal.

If you think you've had the most unsavory nasi lemak, this place could mount a serious challenge.

Extremely mediocre food: Had the ayam rempah set with sambal eggplants. The chicken was cold, hard, and salty. The rice lacked fragrance, tasting almost like regular steamed rice. The eggplants were just okay, but the sambal was decent.
Pretty friendly staff: I chose the biggest cut of chicken thigh.
Prices are alright: Typical CBD rates.

Reasonably priced nasi lemak at an air-conditioned food court. The stall offers a variety of chicken and other dishes for add-ons. I ordered the rendang and rempah chicken; both were tasty and the service was efficient too!

New shop located at Hong Leong Basement! At $7.40, this is slightly pricey but understandable given the location. The rice was fragrant and there were no complaints overall. Will definitely return again!

Finally got to try this brand's nasi lemak. It was very nice to have curry gravy over the nasi lemak, and not an overdose. The staff were also very generous with a big portion of chilli. I finished all the nasi except the peanuts. I never like to eat peanuts with skins unless they are steamed ones.

I frequently visit the Senja branch, but this was my first time ordering a mini buffet for a company event. Ellis, the boss, personally assisted with my order and was incredibly patient and helpful with all my questions. I ordered a total of eight dishes, and they were accommodating, offering half portions for the coconut rice and beehoon, which allowed us to add more variety to the spread. Ikan bilis, cucumber, and sambal were included as standard. What truly impressed me was the quality of the disposable ware, including the tongs, and the pretty batik tablecloth, which is actually reusable.
The food was a hit. Portions were generous. I love their beehoon and begedil. The eggs were perfect with runny yolks. The only minor disappointment was that the long beans tasted crunchier at the stall than the catered ones, but I can't complain because everything else was perfect. I recommend opting for the curry vegetables instead.
Overall, I highly recommend this caterer if you're looking for a quality mini buffet. 10/10 will return.

Stumbled upon this stall and found really good quality nasi lemak. The rice is decently fragrant and moist, the sambal has a good kick without being overly sweet, and the chicken wings were juicy, flavourful, with crispy skin.
