Nasi lemak at the night market
Every Wednesday, my cousin Hafiz and I go to the night market in Taman Melawati. There are three nasi lemak stalls there. Mak Jah's stall is the oldest. It opened in 1998. Her nasi lemak costs RM4.00, and her sambal is the spiciest in the market. Uncle Ravi's stall is newer. He sells nasi lemak for RM3.50 and he gives very big portions. The newest stall belongs to Kak Mira. She opened it last month. Her nasi lemak costs RM5.00 because she adds fried chicken, but her queue is always the longest. Hafiz thinks Uncle Ravi's nasi lemak is the best value. I agree, but I still buy Mak Jah's when I want something really hot!
