Village Park needs no introduction. The name rolls off our tongues when talking about nasi lemak, which makes it a five-star spot to bring a tourist friend or simply anyone who loves the national dish. Lunchtime here sees snaking queues and tight seats but not many know of its quieter morning service that starts at 7am. This is prime time should you want to come in groups. Otherwise, aim for lunch with two to three colleagues, at most. Start your day on a winning note with the Nasi Lemak Ayam (RM9.80) that comes with a sizeable deep-fried chicken leg. It's yummy, crunchy and perfect with coconut-fragrant rice and mildly sweet, addictive sambal. Make space for a side; the dish of Curry Cockles (RM4) is a true underdog here. The little morsels of fresh cockles swimming in luscious curry sauce will easily warrant another order of rice — lemak please.
Avg price per person: RM15

One of the days I have to eat lunch alone, I got to pick what I personally craved for. To Friday's it was!
RM15.90 nett for this lunch set, I got to pick between soup/salad for appetiser and I chose country fried chicken for my main. All sets come with ice lemon tea.
I'm a sucker for chicken, especially if it's boneless. That, and if it's breaded nicely. I loved the gravy too, though I wished they had more of the gravy. I found myself having to eat it with chilli sauce after a while since I ran out of gravy.
They have a lot of other things on the weekday lunch meal, check it out 😁
