Food Tale

I was asked to search for foodies among our colleagues and write about our food experience for our upcoming newsletter. Nasi lemak was chosen because almost everyone loves it. It is universally loved by all races ie Malay, Chinese & Indian in Malaysia.

I brought them to CT Garden Nasi Lemak which located in Kg Baru. Not many people know this place compared to the infamous Nasi Lemak Antarabangsa. I was introduced to this place through a friend about 6-7 years ago.

Located near the Club Sultan Sulaiman, it opens from 6pm to 5am daily. The nasi lemak is wrapped in banana leaf and each packet costs only RM0.70! Each packet consists of a scoop of rice, a spoonful of sambal and a quarter of hardboiled egg.

What unique about this place is, it is divided into a few sections. The first section is the nasi lemak counter where you take a tray and takes as many packets as you want. That's Dhiya, of the foodies queuing at the counter..

A must try otak-otak.. You can get it at the same section as the nasi lemak..

The adds on section offers varities of dishes includes fried chicken, quails, tempe, beef and chicken rendang, pucuk paku, squid sambal, prawn sambal, cockles sambal to choose from. Our favourite are the crispy sambal tempe and unpeeled sambal petai..

Crispy Potato Chips, Cow's lung & Chicken Liver on skewers..

You can add lime squeeze to your own liking at the self service drink's counter

One packet is never enough..

List of prices

Each of us had 1 or 2 packets. We are not big eater actually..but we belasah all the side dishes..hehe..We had fried chicken, honey chicken, rendang chicken, prawn sambal, squid sambal, petai sambal, tempe and chicken liver. All in, it only costs us about RM8 per person.

If you are opt to sit outside, you can eat while enjoying the view of the Petronas Twins Towers which is very near to this place. Highly recommended!
