Nasi Lemak Kukus Ala Nyonya — Restaurant in Hang Tuah Jaya Municipal Council

Sometimes, you just want a simple, no-frills meal, but with good food nevertheless. This place fits the bill. The main items are nasi lemak, mee siam and mee goreng. The extras you can order are sambal prawns, sambal sotong (the rehydrated type, which happens to be my favourite), fried chicken, and another chicken dish (either rendang or curry; not sure which because we didn't order it). The steamed nasi lemak is fragrant, fluffy, and well-flavoured. Comes with kangkung, a Malacca thing. Mee goreng and mee siam were not cooked upon order, but still tasted fresh. Each plate of noodles is served with a fried egg and some sambal. A tangy, thin gravy is ladled over the mee siam. Makes it even more appetising. It looks like the mee goreng has been fried with savoury sambal. We asked for sambal sotong and got a pretty good portion. Went well with the nasi lemak and the noodles. Then again, It's hard for me to resist this type of sotong, as long as it is soft and flavourful. I don't usually go for chicken these days because it can be really off-putting if not fresh. Not the case here. I'm less enthusiastic about the sambal prawns. Not that it's bad; it didn't win me over probably because the prawns weren't particularly plump and sweet. Prices...

I tell yall, this restaurant is a must try when you want to visit Melaka. Their most popular dish is the nasi lemak. Their nasi lemak is something that u guys haven't try before which will melt your mouth in a second. The rice is steamed, tasty and not so spicy sambal, and they have side dishes like sambal prawn, sambal sotong, and their fried chicken which always cook well. They also have Bee Hoon Siam too! One downfall of it is that the portion of nasi lemak is not that big when you take out. Overall, they are one of the restaurant with...
