Why hello there! 

So, how do you like my hair? Interested in giving your hair a new twist? Care for a new look? Ask me how!

One fine morning, I woke up to an unusual craving. I was craving for nasi lemak at Village Park, which is located at Damansara. It was quite a distance, but distance was never a complication to me. So my family and I decided to pay another visit to Damansara as I needed to print my resume for the upcoming interview that I was supposed to attend to. Printer went out of ink so I had to print it at Mommy’s office, which coincidently located quite a number of shops away from Village Park!

As a typical Malaysian, I always crave for food like nasi lemak or roti canai. Some people even have them as supper! Typical Malaysians always do that, no? Like during “yamcha” sessions with buddies and acquaintances.

So I was on a strict diet before this and I didn’t allow myself to have rice for that particular period. But sometimes, I do crave for rice. Never a big fan of rice but nasi lemak bungkus has always been a favorite. Sorry if my diet doesn’t make me seem like I lose a single pound. L

In order to prepare nasi lemak, fragrant rice is being cleaned and then soaked in water with pandan leaves and coconut milk and its being steamed for a period of time to let out the aroma and flavor. Therefore, the rice will have a nice fragrant to it and it can be eaten accompanied with dishes like anchovies, sambal, hard-boiled egg, and sliced cucumbers. Nasi lemak is very common in our country and we can easily find them in most of the mamak stalls.

Village Park nasi lemak with fried chicken, which is also nominated as The Best Nasi Lemak in Klang Valley 2010.

The chicken is being fried into golden brown and served with warm creamy fragrant rice. If you’re not a fan of fragrant rice, no worries! They have normal white rice too. The sambal is not too spicy, it is suitable for all ages. Sliced cucumbers are moist and crunchy! It always pisses me off when I am being served with dried and old looking cucumbers. Not that I consume them all, but no one like old looking and horrible vegetables right? Might not be the right term but.. you know what I mean.

This restaurant is also visited by prominent figures! They have their picture hung across the cashier table. And a gentle reminder, be careful where you park your vehicles because the authorities do tow vehicles away that abrupt traffic! And you might even get a summon ticket stuck on your windscreen. So, please park at your own risk.
