Basmati rice nasi lemak. Can't feel the lemak, dry to eat alone. Homemade sambal
Benson
Bought the mee goreng to break my fast and the mee was way too oily. Had only 2 scoop and got to throw the rest away. What a waste of $4.50.

Coconut rice, chicken wing, egg, ikan bolus, sambal chilli. Standard nasi lemak items for $3.50, but each item was above average in quality. Rice was even basmati rice.
