Malay
"So popular that you actually have to take a number!"
Nasi Lemak is a much-loved breakfast meal for Malaysians and because of their popularity, you can usually find a stall set up in most neighbourhoods in KL. My favourite stall is luckily located near my house. This particular nasi lemak stall started out as one of those stalls that mushroom up overnight, before quickly establishing itself as an institution through word of mouth advertising. It's operated by a friendly duo of Encik Asmi and his wife Kak Sanah (for whom the stall is named after); from the back of a lorry. Kak Sanah serves up 500-600 packets of nasi lemak a day, every morning to its crowd of loyal customers. It's quite popular with people from all walks of life, from the aunty housewife to the office worker.
The range of lauk they serve is amazing. This ranges from the typical sambal kerang, sotong, daging, ayam and kuih assortments. There is even paru goreng sambal here.
I usually go for the ayam goreng because I'm not really a fan of spicy foods. Deep-fried, just right to that point where the chicken is melt-in-your-mouth tender but not mushy. The skin is crispy in that magical goldilocks zone where it's not drenched in grease nor too dry - always just right. There's a peppery but fragrant note hidden in the spices that coats the skin which gives it a nice spicy kick.

Hari Raya Haji is coming up and since most Muslim families will receive a lot of meat during this occasion, we thought that it would be appropriate to highlight one part of the cow that is usually neglected by home cooks - the tongue. Although it can look quite intimidating, the tongue is actually a popular delicacy especially in the east-coast of Malaysia.…

For the upcoming Hari Raya Haji, do something different with your beef. Using the same marinade for satay, fry your beef instead of grilling them. It's so much easier to make and you also don't have to bother with cumbersome satay sticks.
