‘Nasi Lemak’
Breakfast of champions!
One of Malaysia’s national dishes and a traditional way to start the day – rice cooked in coconut milk, sambal chili paste, cucumber slices, hard boiled eggs, peanuts, dried anchovies, served up in this case with a tasty chicken rendang.
Most food bases covered in one brilliant meal!
