Nasi Lemak Cikgu @ SS5B/2, Kelana Jaya

Bear & I, for the past one week, have been on diet due to the excessive weight we've gained these days (thanks to all the makan makan!), yet most of the time, the temptations around us were so overwhelming that we couldn't help but succumb to it. Last Saturday, the same thing happened again. We got so tired and hungry from all the walking at the PC Fair in KLCC that the last thing we wanted was a hearty meal! At first, we couldn't decide where to eat, then I suddenly remembered someone once blogged about a nasi lemak shop called "Nasi Lemak Cikgu" in Kelana Jaya... so off we headed to the shop.

While searching for the shop, we almost got lost. I could only remember it was located in SS5B (and not the street number). After driving round and round the place for 15-20 mins, I squealed with excitement when we spotted a red-hot looking signboard along SS5B/2!!

Chilli red signboard!

It was 6pm when we arrived at the shop. A lady working there told us the chicken would only be ready in 15 minutes (Well, 15 minutes was no big deal especially after going through all the trouble finding the place!)

When the chicken was finally ready, we wasted no time. We ordered two plates of normal nasi lemak & chicken. To my amazement, the serving was intriguing because the chicken was huge and looked delicious!

kacang, ikan bilis & chicken

This is bear's nasi lemak (look how huge the chicken is!)

A plate of nasi lemak like this costs around RM6.00. They do serve sotong as well but I'm not too sure about the price. I must say that I really liked the chilli sambal. It tasted just nice, not too spicy, not too sweet, and not too plain. Unlike other people, I don't like too much sambal added to the rice because it's the pandan taste in the fragrant rice that I savour most. But somehow, this sambal won my heart and I don't mind eating it alone at all!

Yum yum!

For me, the fried chicken tasted great. It was tasty and the texture was smooth and flavourful. It rested nicely in my mouth as I chomped on its chewy meat. But for bear, he felt that the texture was a little too dry. Not too sure why we had different views on the chicken but I certainly enjoyed it (or maybe because I was too hungry?).


Anyway, I had a great time enjoying the nasi lemak. It may not be the "bestest" nasi lemak in town, but I truly enjoyed every bit of it!
