Nasi Kandar Mamak 1 nasi kandar pelita Jalan Ampang, Kuala Lumpur Nasi Kandar Pelita or just Pelita is a popular mamak franchise and the biggest one in Malaysia. It began in Butterworth, Penang with multiple outlets now in states like Kedah, Perak and Selangor. The popular branch visited by city slickers and tourists alike is located along Jalan Ampang and is one of the few big mamak restaurants in the city centre. The fried chicken I had here was definitely the best, where the crispy exterior is packed with spices. Plus, the portion of rice is heftier than the other two places I patronised. The only slightly pricey difference is that Pelita charges for the poppadom chips that are prepacked in a plastic bag. Serving the poppadom this way made me received a less-crunchy version due to its unknown time in packaging. THE BILL Mix rice total RM8.80 Ice Milo RM3.00 Ice tea with lime RM2.10 Poppadom RM1.10 for 1 packet Mamak 2 original penang kayu nasi kandar SS2, Petaling Jaya THE BILL Mix rice total RM9.00 Ice Milo RM3.50 Ice tea with lime RM2.50 Poppadom No charge Another popular chain for nasi kandar is the Original Penang Kayu Nasi Kandar or just Kayu by the locals. I went to the branch in the neighbourhood of SS2 in Petaling Jaya and little did I know that the brand has its roots there. The eatery started as a small stall in SS2 before opening the spacious 2-storey restaurant for all to enjoy. Eating there, I preferred the curries they served. Though the variety of curries and gravy were messily drenched on my plate of rice (just the way I like it), the flavours and spiciness were just right for my palate because I actually cannot tolerate spicy food as strongly as a normal Malaysian. Downside is that out of all 3 places, Kayu was definitely the most expensive when it comes to the meal and drinks. 32 · WWW.<strong>GOASIAPLUS</strong>.COM
Nasi Kandar Mamak 3 bestari Desa Sri Hartamas, Kuala Lumpur I first experienced Bestari not for its nasi kandar but an ingenious invention where they mix indo mee with shredded beef patty. It was a popular hangover food and is still ordered by many till this day where the branch in Desa Sri Hartamas still cooks the best. This time around I went for the nasi kandar. The variety of curries and gravy were not as vast as the previous two restaurants but they still serve the staples like fried chicken and mix vegetables. The plate of rice was good as it is, nothing explosive to shout about but decent enough for me to want to come back. One thing I have to highlight is that the drinks here are hands down the best. Their milo was dense and they did not skimp on the lime in my tea. THE BILL Mix rice total RM8.70 Ice Milo RM3.00 Ice tea with lime RM2.10 Poppadom No charge Where Is Your Favourite Mamak Spot?
