★★★★★Featured review by Nina Lin

Crispy assam fish nasi lemak + nasi lemak kukus with juicy chicken drumsticks. The crunch, the juiciness, the flavors — all so good without feeling heavy. And the best part? This gem is hidden inside a church

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with older children or those comfortable with Malaysian flavours — this is a genuine Malaysian street food experience rather than a modified kids menu venue. Queue before opening to avoid a 20-minute wait. The casual, communal seating and accessible layout suit families with prams.

â„šī¸ What to Know Before You Go

💡Arrive before opening to avoid queues — diners are seated before official opening time on busy days
⏰The nasi lemak is the signature dish — choose your protein from the daily options
đŸŽŸī¸Curry puffs sell out early on popular days — order on arrival
🚗Outdoor bench seating suits families with prams or larger groups

“Tucked away in a church and school building, this is a very popular eatery judging by the number of sit in diners before the official opening time of 11am! This is our first time attracted by the Facebook re the limited edition Nasi Lemak lamb shank! They serve mainly Malaysian street food, (generally with spicy twangs to the dishes). I like my curry noodle. However, the friendly owner agreed with us on the lamb shank Nasi Lemak needing more fine tuning. They sell popular Malaysian deserts and snacks like Taufu fa, baked pork buns, curry puff, pandan cakes, etc! There are lots of parking being a weekday. We will be back again to try their other offerings!”

“There's quite a good range of food to choose from to satisfy your craving for Malaysian fare. Today I had the nasi lemak bugkus. They do a decent cold TehTarek which I had a couple of weeks ago. There's indoor and outdoor dining. Long tables and benches and counter heights outside. Inside you have tables for 4. Friendly staff. Accessible friendly with wide glass doors. Toilets are inside. Credit card surcharge apply. Lots of parking across the road. There's some in the parking lot immediately in front of the entrance. Popular lunch hangout spot for Saturday cyclists.”
