When it comes to a remarkable rendition of our national dish in the late of night, the mind doesn't stray far from Bumbung. After a few drinks with your friends, stop by this bustling backalley for a supreme nasi lemak supper. The must-order Nasi Lemak Ayam (RM6) will see a sloppy miscellany of coconut milk-steeped rice, spice-fried chicken and a mandatory telur mata. The sweet, runny sambal makes a prized commodity on this plate, supplying umami where it goes. The dish will not look very refined, but at that hour, we couldn't care less about looks and neither will you once you tuck into it. For the noodle-inclined, get the simple Indo Mee (RM2.50) with a wobbly fried egg on top. Expect to pay pocket-friendly prices too!
Avg price per person: RM5
