The dome-shaped, fluffy-looking coconut rice is a must-have for this dish. Basmati rice was used and this variation of rice has a longer and thinner grain, and tasted light and fluffy when eaten. The coconut milk was infused in every grain gave rise to a lingering fragrance to the rice as well.
.
The sambal that comes with a typical malay Nasi Lemak is usually sweet and lacks the fiery spiciness. I am not a fan of it although this level of spiciness is just right for the Bear and would prefer to have a hellfire-like chilli option instead.
.
The chicken wing was fried to nice, even shade of golden brown but yet not greasy tasting. The meat underneath it was tender but not the juicy kind that I like, and it had a slightly powdery aftertaste. I also feel that the meat could be more flavoured.
.
The Otah had the subtle fragrance of the banana leaf, nice smokiness from the grill and was pretty flavourful even though it lacked the spicy kick that I was anticipating. While the Otah here was ‘generally good among Singapore Otah’ quoting the Bear directly, it still pales in comparison to the ones that we tried in Muar which were simply unforgettable.
.
The Bergedil was an interesting medley of flavours. It was soft, moist and taste really smooth on the tongue. The spices that was mixed with the mashed potato was the real game changer as it flavoured this item pretty well.
.
The other items were all solid Nasi Lemak components but were nothing phenomenal. I just wished that the fried egg was the runny kind so that I could mix it with the coconut milk-infused rice and there could be peanuts provided as well.
