Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take on Pak Mandor Nasi Lemak is that it offers an affordable and generally well-regarded rendition of the classic dish, particularly for those in the Yishun area.

The stall, established in 2001, is known for its unique green-hued, pandan-infused coconut rice, which some reviewers praise for its fragrance and texture, though others find it initially too wet.

The $5 Nasi Lemak with chicken wing is a popular choice, with the wings frequently described as crispy and juicy, despite sometimes being on the smaller side.

While the sambal receives mixed reviews—some calling it balanced with sweetness and spice, others finding it too sweet with insufficient kick—the overall value proposition is consistently highlighted.

The fried fish surimi fillet and egg omelette also get positive mentions.

We'd recommend managing expectations regarding the sambal's spice level and being prepared for a wait, especially on Sunday mornings where queues can reach 20-30 minutes.

It's a solid option for an inexpensive, satisfying meal, but perhaps not a destination for those seeking a fiery sambal experience.

Rice is too wet and doesn't taste lemak at all. Sambal taste got no kick, more like some type of sauce. Overall whole dish quite dull taste. Just not for me. But then it's super affordable. 5 bucks fo…
