So many people have told me that Village Park Restaurant serves the best Nasi Lemak in Kuala Lumpur 🇲🇾 I had to go and try it for myself. Will it live up to expectations and will the early morning visit be worthwhile?

#nasilemak #malaysia #Travel
For the ayam goreng berempah, no batter is used. The crispy part are the spices that were use to marinate the chicken. Usually people use lemongrass, coriander (seed), cumin, fennel (seed), a little bit of curry powder, ginger, shallot, garlic, chilli powder and turmeric.
Thanks for the tips! I loved the crust it made, village park have it down pat..
Yes..it is herbs and spices
My favourite Nasi Lemak so far in Kuala Lumpur. Your thoughts. Had better?
You went to a right place for the best nasi lemak. The deep fried spicy chicken (ayam goreng berempah) is one of the best I ever had. Next you must looks for Ayam Percik..another my favourite kinda chicken. 🥰
Yes, my Mom's 😁
I had once or twice in Taman Tun.long time ago...very fatty/ coconut flavoured rice...but Village Park chicken is good..
Its up there... Alongside Wanjo's..
Tbh.. love them all, the high ends and lows, each with thier own pros & cons.. but I'd always come back to the rm1/2 banana leaf parcelled ones.. (vendors, stalls & cafés) Although from miscellaneous cooks, deep insight into it.. I could feel behind the scenes scenarios of love and passion of a person trying their best to make ends meet/side income for a family.. 😢
The only cons is it's usually served as a cold bundle.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video n for showing your experience with one of d best nasi lemak in town.
Thanks for saying so.. Steve
@@Steve-Owens 😁
luv to watch your video’s..perfect review..hope you enjoy your stay in Malaysia..👍👍👍
Thank you! 😃 ❤️
Love your channel Brother ! Hope you enjoy your stay in Malaysia. Please upload more videos soon !
Thank you, I will
Hi Steve and Michelle hope you are enjoying Malaysia, that Nasi Lemak looks mouth watering.... Yum! Stay calm and keep on eating!
Thanks buddy, we will do, keep calm that is.. 👍
@@Steve-Owens lol
I see how tender and moist the chicken is. The crust is nice and crispy. That's what I like from that. Thanks for sharing this. Cheers, Steve and Michelle! ✌️
The taste Dwayne.. you'd love it, I'm sure. Thanks buddy 😊👍
Village Park nasi lemak, fried chicken, rendang soto & etc are the best in town! 👍👍👍👍👍
Glad to hear your opinion.. 👍
halal ke restoren ni?
@@speedygonzales3290 kalau tak silap pemiliknya seorg mualaf, Dato' Seri Mohd Syamel Abdullah.
Hey michelle and steve I think you are enjoying the best food ever in the world. Bon appetit. Life is short. Keep safe too.
Hey buddy.. Thanks
Village Park nasi lemak is THE best for me. I've tried all the other so-called well known places but no one does it like Village Park. They are extremely consistent. If I could pick my last meal, this would be it.
Mmmmm...looks yummy 😋 food... mouthwatering 😁 I always watching at u dear.♥️from🇱🇰...
Thanks, great that you enjoyed. 👍😉
A beautiful food collection ❤❤
Love from srilanka 🇱🇰
Thank you so much 😊
That looks very delicious with all the flavors as expected, and the peanuts too. Maybe try a few more places just for comparison ? ;)) it looks like the chicken has a coating of marinade then gets tossed in the deep fry. I think it stays moist by cooking it in larger pieces, then hacking it.
Thanks for your thoughts on that 🙂
Yes Steve. Belacan for chili sambal is made from shrimp paste. You need to cut a slice 1cm thick of belacan, tamarind paste, chili paste mixed and cook well in the work with little vege oil, onions, garlic with bit of salt for nice taste. You may add some sugar or brown sugar or palm sugar according to your taste. Awesome Bro!! Only in Malaysia + cucumber + egg + peanuts + bilis ...
Wow.. Thanks for the information buddy... ruclips.net/video/7sYcnDoAHCY/видео.html
nasi lemak cover with banana leave. the iroma very supert
Alhamdulillah welcome to Malaysia 🥰😘
Thanks ruclips.net/video/7sYcnDoAHCY/видео.html
Its an alright nasi lemak. Glad you are discovering local eateries around KL.
Alright as in you know a better place.. thanks buddy.. 👍👍🇲🇾
Good content keep it up
Glad you enjoyed 👍
please try nasi kerabu at kelantan..,.nasi ulam and budu then ikan singgang. and kelantanes food hehe coz im kelantanes
I love IT 😍😍😍
Me too 😊
Try the mee rebus/mee jawa too for madam
8:02 you're absolutely right, it's dried shrimp paste.. (belacan is what we call here in locals)
Thanks 👍
Hi steve, next trip you can try nasi lemak tanglin, nasi lemak antarababangsa, nasi lemak saleha :)
Oh wow
You're right.. basic ingredients for nasi lemak is important. Uncle Roger & chef Wan agree with u.
Cheers 😊
It's slightly on the high side for the nasi lemak at village restaurant but what the heck! It's delicious..
Lunch time is crowded and parking is a problem there.
Yes, a little on the pricier side, hope that doesn't set a trend.. 👍👍
You better try asam pedas melaka in malacca...so delicious and spicy....just suggesting..btw, you r the best bro
u do really like our fried chicken......it's the marinade (onions, garlic, ginger, curry powder), and fresh spices (lemon grass, turmeric) and some curry powder to fry it in. Salt also brings up the taste.
I really do.. :o)
I like ur narrative/descriptions. “The rice has to be perfect”, “The symphony of….”
If the rice is a little less coconuty, it might be, just might be, ….locals can get coconut flavour in many other types of food, so it may not be a strong preference of local.
For me, if i can pay for that nasi lemak here in Spore, i will be willing to pay more than double the price
.
you should stay longer in malaysia .. love ur review
Thank you buddy...
Last time I ate there was on 2013. I loved their crispy chicken. But I never craving to eat it. Since there is so many places nearby me has amazing nasi lemak.
You can make great Nasi Lemak.. I have the Recipe here, if you need. ruclips.net/video/3RvfSiLkPHQ/видео.html
@@Steve-Owens as Malaysian i proud to said that i know how to cook nasi lemak even my family and friends love them but as eater i never found my nasi taste good 😅.
So early steve😄
Too early for me.. 😀😴
yeah !! finally you went to eat nasi lemak at the village park..definitely not disappointing right😍nasi dagang at the village park restaurant is also delicious👌Omg!i really miss malaysian food🥺
Yeah.. I did and I wasn't disappointed.. Thanks. Have you eaten there Audrey?
@@Steve-Owens I often go there with my mother if we come to Malaysia ..have you ever eaten hometown yong tow foo or chee meng hainan chicken rice or secret recipe nyonya curry laksa or bellamy grilled fish,satay,nasi dagang or nasi kerabu here in malaysia? if not, you should try it👌 For me, all this food is superbly delicious 🤤 and hard to find in europe🤔
There are so many things to try.. We are lucky to be here.. 👍
Nice
Thanks
its better then wakjo nasi lemak interm of sambal, wakjo to sweet. try nasi lemak antarabangsa in kg baru . For grill stingray try at Aroma ikan bakar jeram kuala selangor
Thanks for the tips 🙂
Village Park is decent and reasonably priced for what you get. If you have time you could also try Botak Nasi Lemak which claims to be the 2nd Best Nasi Lemak in Petaling Jaya... I'd say it's an undisputed 2nd best because so far I haven't heard anyone else fight for the 2nd best spot... :p
It's hard to say which is the best bcoz many Malays make wonderful nasi lemak. Have u tried nasi kerabu? U will like it too....the rice comes with some cabbage, tossed shaved coconut, fresh herbs, salted duck egg and delicious sambal. This Nasi Kerabu is harder to find than nasi lemak.
I've so much to learn and taste.. :o)
Kelantan has the best selections of nasi kerabu- the Malay style and the Thai style, each has its slight twist of ulam and toppings.
my best nasi lemak is NASI LEMAK SALEHA .. restaurant at near tesco ampang
It is not so close to where I am now unfortunately.. ☹️
Can have side dishes, squid, and many others.
I miss nasi lemak
Their fried chicken is next level. You could bread cardboard with that marinade/crust and it would taste great. I could just go there for that. Off the hook. 10/10. I think the egg is plain boiled along with cucumbers almost as a palate cleanser or to balance the fattiness and spiciness of the dish. If not it’s just too cloy. Usually I dislike cucumbers due to its lack of flavour but in nasi lemak it’s essential to offset the oil in the chicken and sambal and the richness in rice.
peanut will make the nasi lemak complete..😊
Every piece makes the puzzle work👍
I tell you the best coconut milk is not in a can or box (instant version). The best one is the raw version, take the old coconut fruit, grind the white flesh in the coconut and get the grated coconut. After that squeeze it hard and you will get the coconut milk. Use this to cook nasi lemak.
Thanks for your thoughts.. I totally agree..
@@Steve-Owens haha no problem, but to use original coconut milk is expensive, not suitable for commercial nasi lemak 🤣🤣
Hi Steve, I want you to try Gold Chili in Subang jaya . buttermilk chicken and nasi goreng pedas chicken+ iced coffee. let me know if u had any troubles finding this place
there's moree place lik daging salai masthar and many more
The missing one is the Kang Kong.
The egg is good as it is. Take the yolk out, mix it well with some sambal, eat with rice. Boom.
Good tip.
Steve your stunning yellow shirt can match with their uniform😅
Yes I noticed that. We laughed with the staff about that. 👍😉
any views on a great hot chocolate and a great chocolate milkshake plus try some of there sweets and chocs
Thanks buddy, I do love chocolate but never been a fan of chocolate drinks.. Are they your favourites.. ?
@@Steve-Owens yes they are but they put a lot of salt in them that i dont like
The best nasi lemak is the small packets one wrapped with banana leaf sold by aunties by the roadside stalls. 👍
That's what I always believed but sadly I have had several this past few weeks which have not been great.. I'll keep looking.
@@Steve-Owens Buying a good nasi lemak from the roadside stalls requires luck . Once you've found the stall , you'll definitely love it . As a Malaysian I'm also picky with Nasi Lemak .
@@ArgusXII I can agree, the problem is for every 1 restaurant there 1000 road side sellers, so to find a good one, relies on luck or recommendation.. 👍😉
Steve don't you think the potion is a bit small.. but having said that its very well presented with a banana leaf lining to give it that touch of traditional aesthetic.. as for the sambal.. all good traditional Malay sambal should have Belacan ( shrimp paste ) as a foundations in the Sambal paste.. but i prefer the Siamese style sambal made with fish sauce as a substitute to Belacan.. but you only find these in the north.. i.e. in Penang and Kedah and in all the southern Thai Malay state.. but i also heard there's a really good posh breakfast place in Bangsar.. ( not sure if its still there ) worth checking that out..
Thanks Azhar, no I thought it was a good size portion for a morning meal. I was full after that plate, I'm not convinced we should over eat in the morning, it makes you sluggish and unproductive, or at least it does me.. thanks for your thoughts buddy..
Good food normally comes in small portion.....
@@Steve-Owens in the old days nasi lemak is meant for the farmers....they need big portion to prepare for the whole day working at paddy field which require lots of energy ...
You can try Nasi Lemak ( PALING JAYA ) SEMENYIH SELANGOR.....👍👍👍
Thank you for the tip.. What is great about it?
@@Steve-Owens There a lot Nasi Lemak in Malsysia there all have difference taste like Nasi lemak Tamparuli in Shah Alam another one in Taman Maluri in Cheras.People Q 3.00 am in the morning.....wow amazing....😄😄😄👍👍👍
Steve, nasi lemak traditionaly eat by hand is more handsome.
Steve you could always ask for telor Mata kerbau
🙏🏽🌺
I will say this regarding nasi lemak. A lot of the popular places being recommended on YT is allright but not the best. Some are probably even overated. Some of them used to be really really good, hence why they went viral in the first place but a lot of them kinda went from excellent to mehhh over the years. I'd say explore and try whatever looks good to you and be adventurous. You'll find some hidden gems along the way. Village Park is pretty allright but being the best? No..nope..nope nope
This is the way of the internet now.. but still there is some truth in then trends.. 👍👍
@@Steve-Owens oh yeah absolutely. I'd say try the popular ones suggested so you have your reference point then go crazy 😅
we called that people u eat is spice chicken fry or in malay ayam goreng berempah
Well I can tell you (I think you know already) it's excellent.. :o)
Yes, this is the best now. Use to be a place called Sakura and was the most famous 35 years ago when I was in PJ.
Thanks for letting me know 😊👍👍
Sakura original owner was madam kwan .
She sold the business and opened madam kwan with her son who is an accountant
There is a revival of Sakura name by new owner
The area where this restaurant is located is a upper middle class residential area, hence its pricing will definitely not low.
Good to know.. How much would Nasi lemak this good cost in another neighbourhood? Any Ideas.
@@Steve-Owens I am not sure, but the one in kampong baru is definitely cheaper?
@@EYL542 It was but also, not as tasty.. IMO
Not the best but among the best list. Because many places serve best Nasi Lemak too.
The chicken is called Ayam goreng berempah. It’s has blended lemongrass, garlic, ginger mixed and marinade. Then they fry it altogether. That’s where the spices are all on the chicken skin..
I think that loudspeaker is to call on the delivery riders for orders from foodpanda and grab.
I think you are right.. Oh and it's silly of me because I have cooked this chicken before.. LOL
@@Steve-Owens oh yes.. I just found your video from 6 years ago “how to cook nasi lemak”. The recipes are all there.. 😀😀
I know it sounds ridiculuous but have u tried the nasi lemak at MC Donald's? Only in malaysia MCd had that menu. It is quite good but be careful because the sambal is superspicy. If u want to try u can try the nasi lemak with spicy chicken. For me it's tasty, worth to try😊👍
Not so Crazy.. I'm thinking of trying it for sure..
Yes, McD nasi lemak sambal is super spicy 😆
Not nice at all. Rice isnt fragrant enough and sambal is meh. Way better nasi lemaks out there.
best nasi lemak is always either in the morning or late at night beside the road
some random old lady will sell it to u
any malaysian will agree me on this
Some of it but not all.. I think they will also agree :o)
Steve, I did not realise you have a mohican hair do
Just joking, I have less hair than you lol
That nasi lemak looked scrumptious
If too much coconut milk, it will not be absorbed by the rice, it will stick to the outside of the rice & make the rice goes off quicker
🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the info buddy.. 👍👍🇲🇾
oh peanuts
Don't you want to try fish head curry easily available in the mamaks?
Not overly 🫣
Belacan.
Thanks
Its malay stye marinate. Lemon grass
It's delicious ☺️
This is legit and this is how to taste and review for good nasi lemak 🫡
Thank you 😌
Trust me my mom cooks the best Nasi Lemak
So I have heard... LOL. ruclips.net/video/8lm4B2wiApU/видео.html
each time go vp only have 3 ikan bilis
Is it ayam berempah? Or spiced chicken...you can try ' nasi kukus ayam berempah'
Thank you buddy, I was looking for that info.. Excellent.. Have you eaten here?
@@Steve-Owensnot yet...too far to try
I think nasi lemak should olso be served with fried eggs instead of boiled as option.
Please mix it up before you eat. Eat it the right way.
I'm not good on people telling you the way you should eat.. Don't you think it's personal choice.. ?
Good Nasi but not great. Chicken is great tho
💖 p̲r̲o̲m̲o̲s̲m̲
No nut ??? Ohhhh man...
ruclips.net/video/7sYcnDoAHCY/видео.html
Village park is too spicy for me.
Which part?
@@Steve-Owens sambal
Not the best in Malaysia.. just one of the best...
This is definitely not as hyped just like the famous hyped cendol in Penang. This is tasty but just average or below average nasi lemak. A Simple packet of authentic real Kampung nasi lemak from any mak cik is pure heaven. If you take a drive down any old road around Malaysia you will find it. This is marketing that's all.
You'd need to be more specific, perhaps? I have a few now and many have been really under average.. Anyway, I will continue to seek better..
Are you sure? The roadside nasi lemaks don't have the type of fried chicken Village Park has.
MSG galore here! First and last time I ate here. After eating..I was thirsty the whole day. Really shocking! Go eat here only if you love to swallow tons of MSG.
No. Its overrated
In Malacca, a Nasi Lemak would not be one without blanched Water Spinach…
Interesting. Does that have a particular name.. ? Thanks
Yes, I was going to say our Malaccan nasik lemak must have kangkung (morning glory), ikan bilis and peanuts. In Singapore their nasi lemak have none of the three but replaced by otak otak, and fish cake and fried ikan kuning, I stopped eating their nasi lemak.
@@alexlee2765 Thanks for all the info Alex.
Not best nasi lemak for me.. Overclaim maybe as the best 😅
Where is your best ? ruclips.net/video/7sYcnDoAHCY/видео.html
the way u eat is just like eating KFC,u don't even eat the chicken with rice and sambal together....not sure if u are getting the real taste of nasi lemak.....
I am not sure you watched the Video but never mind. I'm not in the habit of bullying people to eat the way I demand.. I tend to think people have their own autonomy, maybe you can respect that but also, take a moment to watch the video..
Not sure what point you're trying to get across but nasi lemak doesn't need to have chicken.
I can think of a few Million people that would disagree with you. A Roti doesn't need curry either but where would you be on that..
do u understand the meaning of comments??? having war over comments with your viewers don't do u good...don't worry,now switching your channel to 'not interested/don't recommend this channel' mode,for no pops up notifications in future.....
Nice
Thanks
I miss nasi lemak
I'll have some for you.. 🫣
