Nasi Ambang

One of the many things I'll miss when I leave JB is the Nasi Ambang at Bandar Baru Uda or more specifically at Mat's Corner! (pic a bit blurry because was taken before we ate so Adrian's hand was shaky due to hunger)



For those who haven't heard of Nasi Ambang, it is a speciality of Malay kampung folk of Javanese ethnic origin. It is basically plain rice with portions of beef rendang or chicken, tempe (a mix of vegetables and soybean cake), serunding kelapa (fried grated coconut), salted fish and sambal belacan (pounded chilli and prawn paste), all served on a piece of banana leaf.



They are only open during lunch and open at around 11ish and everyday by 2pm it's all sold. Every last chicken or beef, gone. Thank you Becky for introducing me to Nasi Ambang!
