Editor’s Note

Last updated 30 May 2026

Our take: Crave Nasi Lemak, a modern chain descended from Selera Rasa Nasi Lemak, offers a consistent and accessible option for the dish across Singapore.

We note the fluffy long-grain rice with its distinct floral notes, and the well-regarded sambal tumis which many find to have a good balance of sweet, salty, and spicy.

The deep-fried turmeric marinated chicken wing is often highlighted for its tender and juicy texture, though some mention it's smaller than its parent brand's version.

The ikan bilis and peanuts provide a satisfying crunch, and the fried egg with a runny yolk adds to the experience.

However, we've seen reports of significant issues with order accuracy and pricing, particularly concerning bundled drinks with the Nasi Lemak Royale.

While the food quality is generally praised for its consistency and flavour, these operational inconsistencies can detract from the overall experience.

We recommend double-checking your order and receipt carefully, especially if ordering bundled meals.

Best for a reliable, quick nasi lemak fix, but be vigilant with your order details.

What customers say

Crave Nasi Lemak is generally praised for its consistent quality, particularly the fragrant rice, tender chicken wing, and flavorful sambal.

Customers appreciate the improved portion sizes and the overall solid taste.

However, there are significant concerns regarding pricing transparency and order accuracy, with one customer reporting being charged for excessive drinks not clearly indicated on the menu or receipt, leading to accusations of 'scamming'.
