Village Park Restaurant

Heard all the hype and finally got my hands on Village Park Nasi Lemak and it didn’t disappoint.

The chicken was super crispy on the outside, with those addictive crunchy bits that everyone fights over. Inside, the meat was tender, juicy, and full of flavour.

The sambal was spicy, slightly sweet and just shiok. It paired perfectly with the lemak rice which was fragrant, fluffy and not too heavy.

Added a side of kang kong for some greens. Stir-fried just right with a good crunch and a garlicky kick that tied everything together nicely.

Went for takeaway since the dine-in queue was crazy long… maybe I’ll brave the line next time!

The dabao version seems smaller, especially the rice and chicken leg. It's also missing the fried bits that elevate it. This time, the best thing was the chilli.

This is also a gooood nasi lemak in KL.
The taste of the coconut milk in the rice, and its perfectly cooked.
The rendang taste rich and i tried some fried chicken from my friend's portion and it is not disppointed too!
Overall not bad. Will go again if i can.
The restaurant have two floors and its crowded!

If you are not in the mood for the nasi lemak, the Pan Mee is probably the next best thing to order.

The journey there was rather smooth as traffic wasn’t as highly congested on a Friday morning and we got a table almost immediately when we reached but the restaurant soon filled up very quickly thereafter. Went straight for the signature Village Park’s Nasi Lemak Ayam Goreng (12 MYR) and if there is one single dish that solidifies your visit to Kuala Lumpur, it has to be a visit to Village Park for this plate of goodness.

The coconut rice was aromatic and fluffy and sambal was a good balance of sweet and spicy. The x-factor has got to be the berempah fried chicken which was well marinated, juicy and tender. Everything was right about this plate and it was a great breakfast to start the day.

I'm sure everyone in KL would have been here or at least heard of this place as its nasi lemak is known as 'the best nasi lemak' in town.

I can't say if it is the best but this place definitely lives up to its fame. The fried chicken is the real star - it is crispy and well-marinated, and amazingly tender, moist on the inside. It is topped with lots of fried crispy bits of spices, which adds extra flavour and crunch when eaten with the rice.

Even though the rice might not be the most fragrant, it is very fluffy with each grain perfectly separated. Mix the rice with the well-balanced sweet-and-spicy sambal, so BOMB! Service was quick and efficient too as our food came in less than 10 minutes.
