Editor’s Note

Last updated 21 Jul 2026

Our take: Nasi Lemak Ayam Taliwang consistently earns praise for its fragrant coconut rice and well-marinated fried chicken.

We note that the chicken wing, often highlighted as the star, is fried to order, ensuring a crispy exterior and juicy meat.

The sambal chilli also receives special mention for its unique flavour and generous portion, though some find it mild.

While the quality is generally high, we observe a recurring comment about the pricing being on the higher side, with sets like the Chicken and Otak at $6.90 and other combinations reaching $9.50.

There's also an isolated but strong criticism regarding an overcooked and potentially stale-tasting chicken, suggesting some inconsistency in execution.

However, the majority of feedback points to a satisfying experience, particularly for late-night cravings given its extended operating hours.

We'd recommend this for a reliable, albeit slightly pricier, nasi lemak fix, especially if you're in the Hougang area and seeking a late-night meal.

Saw the high reviews. Decided to try. Ordered the chicken and fish set. $6.70 as I don’t have choice to order only the chicken. Both chicken and fish were quite dark in colour. Means oil was used too…

The coconut aroma of the rice is good, and the sambal and peanut ikan bilis complement it well. However, the cabe ijo feels like it's missing something, perhaps because I'm more use to a different fla…

I stumbled upon this stall by chance, and I'm so glad I did! This is hands down one of the best plates of Nasi Lemak I've had in a hawker centre. I was particularly surprised to learn they're open til…

Quick service, I was asked to wait and was just seated for a while then it was done already. Generous chili given with the chicken. I love the egg, half cooked for the yolk. Chicken was fine, a big p…
