Want a taste of Pangkor Island ‘nasi lemak’? Alee Kopitiam in Taman Sri Segambut is the place to go for that plus awesome stuffed chili fish, yam cake and ‘tong sui’

Alee Kopitiam in Taman Sri Segambut offers an authentic Pangkor Island nasi lemak experience with a range of flavorful dishes. The shop, run by a family of home-based caterers, serves traditional Malaysian cuisine, from nasi lemak packed in triangular parcels to stuffed chili fish and yam cake. Prices range from RM2.20 for ikan bilis to RM5 for petai sotong.

Their homemade sambal, made with blended chilli, herbs, and spices, elevates the taste of the dishes. Popular side dishes include baby prawns, petai, clams, fried egg sambal, and fried chicken. On weekends, they also serve dry chicken curry noodles and chicken drumstick cordyceps soup with noodles. Be sure to end your meal with a bowl of red beans and black glutinous rice 'tong sui' for a touch of sweetness and creaminess.
