Look, nasi lemak is comfort food.
Located in Medan Ipoh in eye-catching yellow signage and interior is a nasi lemak specialist hailing from Kampar. They have so much confidence in their menu, there's only nasi lemak available, plus your protein and additions of choice. Suffice to say, nasi lemak (and fried chicken) is front and centre.
I ordered the signature nasi lemak with fried whole chicken leg (RM13.80, great value), and a side of sambal cockles (RM7.80). Service was fast-food style, order and pay at the counter then wait at your table. I was greeted warmly by the waiter and served very quickly.
The sambal is a great combo of spicy/sweet/savoury, and let's face it, sambal makes or breaks nasi lemak, and they aced it. The rice is fragrant with coconut milk, and the star of the show was the beautifully-fried chicken which was fresh, marinated in spices and had a delightful aroma and crunch. Juicy too. Top marks. The cockles are delicious too, if a tad oily and small. The white coffee (RM4.80) is not bad as well.
All in all, a worthwhile visit to satisfy your nasi lemak cravings. Open for brunch,...

The fried chicken was soft tender and juicy. Most Importantly, to all the gym freaks like me you don’t have to worry about the oil as it is not oily at all.
I chose the less spicy sambal option as I am not so good with spice and I rate it a 10/10.
Staffs are super friendly and service is quick. Give their Konjac Jelly a try, very very tasty.
Overall good spot to have a...
Read moreHonestly, most of the 5 star reviews are fake. They give free fried chicken if you review their restaurant 5 star. The sambal, both squid and nasi lemak sambal is SUPER bland. The rice has a very weird after taste. You can get better deals out there for nasi lemak. Even McDonalds nasi lemak taste like 20 times better than this, and it is a commercial brand. So ya, not recommended- dont waste your...
