One of the popular nasi lemak stall in this area, there always a long queue during dinner time.paid
One of the popular nasi lemak stalls in this area, there's always a long queue during dinner time. I paid SGD$4.90 for my meal, which consisted of a fried chicken wing, egg, ikan bilis, as well as a bergedil. The food was alright to me. The fried chicken wing was really crispy and flavourful.
One thing that I didn't really like was the consistency of pricing; I paid less for the same items I ordered not too long ago.

This is definitely one of the best nasi lemak in the east. The boss's service attitude is good and polite. The nasi lemak quality is good, and they also have many varieties of Malay traditional kueh. The stall is clean, and the food is good and freshly prepared. Well done!

the owner was so friendly and nice, kept confirming the order with me. the sambar had no kick so ppl
The owner was so friendly and nice, and kept confirming the order with me. The sambar had no kick, so for people who can't eat spice, I've got you covered. The chicken had a nice layer of fried coating. The ikan bilis was top-notch, crispy with a layer of salt. The RICE! It was the star of the show! Oh my goodness, it smelled so nice, and was creamy and fluffy! Other things that were bomb were the begedil & fish!

Sedap! Love the fried chicken wings, well marinated.
Fragrant rice, crispy ikan bilis and good chill
Sedap! Love the fried chicken wings, they are well-marinated. The rice is fragrant, the ikan bilis is crispy, and the chilli is good to go with. Be early before it's sold out.

Fragrant and fluffy rice, sweet spicy chilli that is separated upon request and well marinated chick
Fragrant and fluffy rice, with sweet and spicy chilli that can be separated upon request, and well-marinated chicken wings. Opt for the sets – chicken or fish – as they offer better value. The uncle is friendly and confirms your order before preparation.
We had to queue a bit as it's one of the most popular stalls in the hawker centre, but it was definitely worth the wait.
