Chitchat Where is your favourite Nasi Lemak stall?
- Thread starter NasiLemakMan
- Start date
I remember the stall at Golden shoe, yes the Nasi Lemak was good. The stall was indeed closed not because the owner died of heart attack. The guy had 2 wives and one of them dragged the husband and set herself and him alight in the kitchen. The family claimed that then husband tried to save the wife from a kitchen fire and both perished. Anyway the son took over the stall and reopened it.
The best Nasi Lemak looks like this :
In the 80s, lima pulo sens can get a packet like that, complete with ikan kuning, telur, some kacang, timun and sambal.
You also had "food panda" in HDB estates vis a vis the Malay kids who would walk around the corridors carrying the plastic basket crying out "nasi lemak epok epok" to announce that they were making their rounds. And maybe the little brother/sister with the frozen flavoured ice tied in drinking bags.
No more lima pulo sens but $2 for the same from mama stall.
Was it? I work around there for ages? & ate at the stall......I had a different story....the actual people preparing & running the stall is gone, those that sprouted up are IMITATION....that was not really nasi lemak....it was Lemak rice, with choices of supposedly to be pandan flavoured rice but green food dye or white, chicken wings, drumstick, egg, kuning fish, anchovies, cucumber, & a large wallop of sambal...
One of my Japanese colleague.."swear" by that stall...ha ha ha...he will come back from a business trip to Tokyo.....fly in to Singapore , head there to eat the food & go to office thereafter..with his bags, coat etc..
The story was he died of a heart attack...
kari pok...kari pok....lasi lemak...epok epok......NEA killed those "food pandas"....
Actually it is either the aromatic rice...they way it is cooked with the fluffiness, the smell & the taste plus the pedas sambal or the combination of both enthral us to the nasi lemak, the rest are just side dishes to the packet, right?...the crispy anchovies, the fresh crunchy cucumber slice.... or the fish...
It was later, that the other add-ons came into being, the chicken wing, the chicken drumstick, the slice egg or half boiled egg or....it was not longer the old nasi lemak, wrapped in banana leaves....
Now that you've mentioned, there were also young kiddos delivering the evening news, shouting "Maa... Piu Poh"
Nostalgic...
You also eat Nasi Lemak? You like the Fish or chicken wings?
Anyone like those in Changi Village?
Standards gone down...
It is the same everywhere in Singapore, Standards have gone down. Any corner, where 'their fingers' have touched....standards have gone done...rental increases, & other cots will go up....
:p
