Looking for Malay places?

Beef rendang, cabbage, brinjal. A lot to like but it's a problem when the premium dish was mainly tendon without meat and damn oily.

The classic Nasi Lemak from Epok Epok Central at Eunos Crescent is a delightful treat.
Priced reasonably at $4, it features fluffy coconut cream-infused rice that pairs beautifully with their signature chili.
The crunchy peanuts and crispy anchovies add a nice texture contrast, while the homemade fried chicken wing seals the deal with its perfect crispiness.
This dish is totally enjoyable and definitely worth returning for!

The Kacang Pool from Kacang Pool Mustafa in Geylang Serai offers a delightful culinary experience.
The dish features flavourful broad beans perfectly complemented by the richness of a fried egg, the sharpness of diced red onions, and the fresh kick of green chili.
Squeezing lime over the top adds a zesty twist that enhances all the flavours.
Paired with a thick baguette for dipping and dunking, this meal is both satisfying and deliciously balanced.
A must-try for those who enjoy bold and hearty dishes!

Worth the journey to Yishun for. Chicken grilled to perfection; will return to try their lamb next.

This corner shop along Lavender Street is popular for their Halal foods that open 24 hours.

There’s also many families would come here for their Halal tze char dishes especially the seafood selection.

I was looking for some supper at night around here so decided to grab my meal here.

Tasty fried rice but the tomyum taste wasn’t strong enough for me. Beside seafood, you can choose to go with either chicken or beef also.

The seafood one comes with the usual prawn.

I admit I wasn't desperate to return. But I'm won over by this off-menu dish. The sauce was done well, in a Malay style. The egg was also cooked beautifully.

One of the better mee siam I will ever have.

Original gravy damn good on its own, flavourful

Mix with sambal, a little sweeter and spicier, but still good.

Squeeze Lime on it, mind-blowingly good, the flavours just picks up. 🤯

This takeaway kiosk can find along Arab Street, just the corner close to Zam Zam.

Selling their famous epok epok in few different ingredients such as sardine and potato.

Crusty skin with generous filling inside.

Featured on Michelin Guide’s Bib Gourmand for their famous nasi padang, this place usually attracts large crowds during lunch time.

Thankfully they have an air-conditioned space for you to enjoy your meal. Lots of dishes to choose from their selections.

I gotten myself the beef rendang, egg, veggie and begedil.

Runned by a mother and daughter, Pak Mandir is a mecca for excellent and affordable nasi lemak in the Yishun area.

There was a really long queue at Pak Mandor even on an early Sunday morning and some of the ingredients like the (legendary) begedil were sold out.

That said, the key to a good nasi lemak is the rice and Pak Mandor's version aced it. Ignoring the artificial looking bright green colour, the coconut and pandan infused rice was soft, fluffy, aromatic and savoury. It's one of the best I have had and all I need is the spicy and savoury samba chilli to go with it and the really really awesome ikan bills which they refuse to sell on its own but was shattering crisp and tasty!

One of the few Malay stalls you can find at this food centre, with a queue usually forms during lunch time by the CBD workers.

Variety of dieshes to choose from. I ordered the lemak curry chicken with fried egg and okra.
