If you're craving authentic Kelantanese cuisine, Warisan Kelate is a must-visit, especially for their signature Nasi Kerabu. This vibrant dish immediately stands out with its naturally blue rice — colored using bunga telang (butterfly pea flower) — giving not just visual appeal but a subtle floral note to the fragrance. The rice is perfectly cooked: not too wet, not too dry, and infused with a light herbal aroma that complements the rest of the ingredients.
What truly steals the show, though, is the fried chicken. Golden brown and crispy on the outside, juicy and tender on the inside — it's served hot and fresh, and it’s easy to see why this is the restaurant’s biggest draw. It’s crunchy perfection that pairs exceptionally well with the herbaceous and tangy notes of the salad-like ulam and the shredded cabbage topping.
The spicy sambal is no joke — fiery and bold, it's not for the faint-hearted. But if you can handle the heat, mixing it into the rice creates a flavor bomb that ties all the elements together beautifully. On the side, there’s also a piece of keropok (crackers) for added crunch and a half of salted egg, offering a creamy, salty contrast to the dish.
Having visited several times, I can say this place never disappoints. The flavors are consistent, the portions are satisfying, and every plate feels like a lovingly prepared home-cooked meal. The only downside? It gets very crowded during lunch hours, and parking can be a challenge, so plan your visit accordingly.
Overall, Warisan Kelate offers a truly delicious and authentic taste of Nasi Kerabu. A top spot for anyone who appreciates bold...
Read moreThe fried chicken is the best. It's the item that you may want to order after you had your first helping. The chicken is fried to a crunchy crisp whole retaining the freshness of the chicken meat on the inside. The meat is well marinated and flavorful with a hint of spice to tantalise the taste buds.
The other dishes are just an appetising compliment to the fried chicken.i felt there could do with some effort in this area which could have earned another start from me.
The purple drink is made from press flower with some like which turns it's natural blue to purple. It's passable.
The service department need some reorganisation and the surrounding could be more cooler. With a packed lunch crowd the place was sweltering humid and warm. It's could do with reorganisation in the layout.
The only reason to go is for the well...
