own sambal chili fresh daily with dried chili, fresh chili, anchovies and spices, all of which we can taste in the blend ( you can tell it’s not store bought ). They have a wide range of moreish side dishes – Fried chicken wings are crisp outside and juicy inside. Their fried eggs are served with runny yolk, creamy and so attractive when stirred into the rice. Uniquely so, Hon Ni makes their own otak otak at the stall and uses minced chicken thigh instead of fish. The minced chicken, coconut milk and spices blend well together and it’s one of their star dish seller.
Nasi Lemak Ayam Taliwang
51 Yishun Ave 11 #01-33 (Map) Tues, Wed, Fri – Sun: 6.30am – 7pm Thurs : 7am – 7pm Mon
The authentic nasi taliwang in Lombok is like Mala spice, needlessly spicy but addictively so. The version here is calmer but does not ease up on the spice quotient. The sambal heat surfaces upon first bite and the chicken (because their turnover is high) comes freshly fried and smeared with this bold sambal. The rice is lemak or coconutty rich and refreshingly redolent with lemongrass, pandan and a gentle stock base. Even the egg is fried upon order (especially if you go at their peak hour lunch when nothing has time to sit on the shelf).
