97 Nasi Lemak

97 Nasi Lemak is a hawker stall serving Chinese style nasi lemak at wallet friendly prices. The coconut rice is fragrant and fluffy, with grains that stay separate yet moist, and it comes with a sweet and mildly spicy sambal that works well even for those who are new to chilli. Most diners go for the set with crispy fried chicken, egg, peanuts, ikan bilis and cucumber, then add sides such as nyonya otah, chicken katsu, bergedil or tau kwa. The stall also cooks homely mains like chicken rendang, ayam masak merah, curry chicken and sambal brinjal, and sells brown bee hoon, kway teow and mee for a cheap, filling breakfast. Prices start from just over a dollar for noodles, and a full nasi lemak set costs only a few dollars. It is a casual, order at the counter kind of place, good for a quick weekday breakfast, a budget lunch or a no fuss meal with family and friends.
