1. Boon Lay Power Nasi Lemak

When you think of the best nasi lemak in Singapore, the name Boon Lay Power Nasi Lemak will always pop up. Many will agree that it’s affordable price and consistent quality is the main draw of the food stall. A set with chicken (pictured) costs a mere $3.

3. Mizzy Corner Nasi Lemak

With more than one popular stall specializing in nasi lemak at Changi Village, it is hard to decide which to have. We recommend Mizzy Corner as they serve up a quality plate with freshly made components. Crispy and tender on the inside, the chicken wings here are cooked just right. The batter is not too thick and pairs up perfectly with the sambal. It is a must try when you are here!
