Nasi Kandar is one of the simple pleasures I enjoy on a leisurely weekend and both Jien and I are always on a lookout for good ones in Klang Valley. A friend told us Nasi Kandar Utara in SS15 Subang isn’t too bad so we decided to pay them a…
Nasi Kandar
Hameediyah Nasi Kandar in Kota Damansara originated from Penang – an establishment that has been around since 1907 and said to be the oldest nasi kandar restaurant in Malaysia. I tried their nasi kandar a few months back when Jien did a takeaway for lunch at home. It was pretty…
After a family tussle over the ownership of Line Clear Nasi Kandar in Penang, one of the proprietors opened LC Restaurant in Kampung Baru. It is said that the outlet in Penang is now run by the cousin, and the original recipe for Line Clear’s famous nasi kandar is only…
Nasi Kandar is one of my favourite things to eat in Penang – a meal I find quite impossible to resist given just how much I love my curries. There’s just something about the combination of curries in nasi kandar that I find extremely addictive and no matter how stuffed…
I used to be impartial towards nasi kandar, a meal of steamed rice with curries and side dishes that originated from Penang. That was more than 10 years ago when my dad did the mixing of curries. I love my old man, but he isn’t the best curry mixer I…

In business since 1943, the famous Nasi Kandar Beratur got its name from the long queue of people outside the shop. I almost didn’t want to beratur (line up) because I’m generally quite impatient. Good thing the queue moved fairly quick and I got to the front of the line…
Nasi Kandar Ibramsha I used to get my nasi kandar fix from Nasi Kandar Ibramsha and it is best to reach the restaurant before 12noon or after 2pm. Otherwise, be prepared to join the long queue. Prices have skyrocketed since my first visit in 2005 – a plate of rice…
Restoran Kok Siong in Puchong looks like any other Chinese coffeeshop. I only knew about this place when I became a volunteer at the Burmese children shelter in Puchong two years ago. A Mr. Tee mans this nasi kandar stall with the help of three workers. According to him, the…
