Description

What Chiefeater VK Ordered at Tan Yew Lai Nasi Lemak Corner

I recently revisited Restoran Tan Yew Lai Nasi Lemak Corner, a local landmark that has been a staple in the Tan Yew Lai community for 27 years. The business has a rich history, evolving from a humble roadside stall to a food truck, and now operating out of its own rented shoplot.

I ordered the nasi lemak and mee hoon, which came to a total of RM15.50. The nasi lemak was paired with sambal petai, which provided a significant “burn” and featured a very strong petai flavor. While the taste was impressive, the portion of petai was a bit sparse with only five pieces included.

The mee hoon was a delight and I actually liked the mee hoon more that the Nasi Lemak. The flavour was good and the vermicelli texture was not brittle.

Now located in a proper shoplot on Jalan Taman Tan Yew Lai, the restaurant offers a more structured dining environment than its food truck days. It maintains a bustling, authentic local kopitiam atmosphere that is popular with both long-time residents and new visitors.
