The Peranakan nasi lemak is a disappointment. Tried the standard set ($5.50) which is blue pea rice with rendang chicken, fried egg and ikan billis. Added a piece of otah ($1.80). …

Food is cheap and good! My favourite stall in this hawker centre! Love the rendang chicken, braised pork belly and chap cai 😋 More favourites! Long beans, egg plant, Otah, potato balls - all very nice!! Salmon is good too, but that one will be a bit pricey …

I’ve always wanted to try the Nonya Nasi Lemak at Emmanuel Peranakan, which is one of the more popular stalls at 84 Marine Parade Central Hawker Centre. …
Charlene
Joined the long queue to try Emmanuel Peranakan cai fun — I suspect most first-timers like me were drawn in by the word “Peranakan cuisine.” Taste-wise, the food was alright, but honestly, it didn’t feel very Peranakan to me. …
Benson
First try and probably my last. Order the nasi Lemak with additional brinjal for total $6.50. The chilli portion was pathetic, the rice has no fragrance only the chicken is just ok. But they shrimp on the gravy and chill which is the most important component. Portion is small as well.
