Editor’s Note

Last updated 21 Jul 2026

We think Kitchenman Nasi Lemak offers a strong contender for a satisfying nasi lemak, particularly if you prioritise a well-executed fried chicken.

The Ayam Goreng Berempah Leg consistently receives praise for being juicy, tender, and flavourful, with some even calling it 'fall-off-the-bone perfect'.

The sambal is frequently highlighted for its spicy kick, and the runny yolk of the fried egg is a common point of appreciation.

However, the rice itself is a point of contention; while some find it fragrant, others note a lack of distinct coconut flavour, describing it as 'bland' or 'almost like a plate of plain rice'.

Service can also be slow during busy periods, with reports of customers being left unattended.

We'd recommend opting for the chicken leg over the breast for the best experience.

Overall, it's a decent plate of nasi lemak, but the rice might not meet expectations for those seeking a strong coconut aroma.

Best for a late lunch to avoid the crowds and potential service delays.

What customers say

Kitchenman Nasi Lemak receives praise for its tender, juicy Ayam Goreng Berempah (especially the leg portion) and a spicy, flavourful sambal.

The runny egg and crunchy ikan bilis are also highlights.

However, some customers find the nasi lemak rice itself to be bland or lacking sufficient coconut aroma, and the fried chicken can occasionally be too oily or lack flavour.

Service can be inconsistent, with some experiencing delays in being seated or attended to.
