Who doesn’t love a good ol’ plate of nasi lemak, especially at the 10 Best Nasi Lemak eateries in JB?

Here’s 10 great nasi lemak joints that are safe for your wallet, and tasty too!

10 Best Nasi Lemak Bungkus in JB

Restoran Mana Lagi

For many die-hard fans, this is THE BEST place for a plate of nasi lemak. Their top hits are the fried chicken and beef rendang. A plate of your basic nasi lemak will set you back by RM2.50 at most.

They only close on Fridays, and are open otherwise from 6pm to midnight.

Address: 569 Jalan Persisiran Perling 1, Taman Perling, JB

Hai Wan Restaurant

There’s a nasi lemak stall here that serves a unique green nasi lemak. I’m guessing it’s from pandan essence. It goes well with a side plate of chicken rendang. Their sambal is up with the rest of the greats.

Only open from 7am to 1pm daily.

Address: 2 Jalan Indah 16/7, Bukit Indah, JB

Restoran Malam Indah Selalu

A RM4.50 pack consists of a piece of fried chicken, some veg, a fried egg and a keropok with the usual nasi lemak fare. That’s a pretty darned good deal!

The shop opens from 5.30pm until midnight. They close on Wednesdays.

Address: Kampung Senibong, Permas Jaya (near AEON)

Sambal House

This is not a roadside stall, but it doesn’t mean that the food here is expensive either. Try out the squid sambal with your nasi lemak for a change.

Open daily from 11am onwards to 7pm

Address: 34 Jalan Suria 18, Taman Suria, 81100 JB

Nasi Lemak Anggerik

Give a fried selar kuning a try (it’s a fish btw) with a dollop of their thick sambal paste. They’re open daily from 5.30pm to 11pm.

Address: Right next to the Al-Rajhi Bank in Taman Molek

Nasi Lemak Wak Kentut

Don’t be fooled by the dodgy name. The ayam goreng berempah is made with a special spice mix, and they make the best nasi lemak kukus I’ve tried in JB.

They are closed on Sundays and operate from 6pm til late.

Address: Jalan Susur Kulai 2, Taman Kulai Besar, Kulai, Johor

Warung Zai Nasi Lemak Low Piak

The fried chicken thigh delivered by Kak Zai is one of a kind. And we all love our fried chicken and nasi lemak, don’t we? The price is dope, too.

Closed on Tuesdays. They open from 7am to 12.30pm.

Address: Taman Nira, Batu Pahat, 83000 Johor

Nasi Lemak “U”

The sambal isn’t too spicy here, and they’re constantly frying batches of chicken, which is a good thing as it flies off of the racks. A meal for two with drinks will set you back by less than RM15.

The shop is closed on Saturdays and otherwise operates between 7pm-11pm.

Address: SPACE UTM Junction

Nasi Lemak Al Aisy
Take your pick on side dishes here – sambal kangkung, fried chicken legs, and even some other fried beef organs. A pack of nasi lemak with fried chicken is around RM5.

The stall is open daily from 5pm -10pm

Address: Jalan Indah 16/5, Bukit Indah, JB (next to AmBank)

Old Town White Coffee

This franchise actually carries a plate of nasi lemak that is pretty decent, and priced cheaply too. As it’s located in a shopping mall, it’s open daily from 10am -10pm.

Address: Jalan Wong Ah Fook, JB City Square, JB
