Have you been to Adam Road Food Centre around lunch time? If you have, then you definitely seen this stall or even tried it before. The queue from this shop and the rival next door are just tremendous, basically nobody wants to seat at the tables near their stalls.Chubby Botak Koala & The Little Devil survived 60 minutes wait here to get the taste of the ever popular nasi lemak here. We have heard of these notorious nasi lemak place, but this is our first ever visit and it was unplanned as well. While I was waiting for my turn, I was listening to other customers on the phone checking with their office or family if they want any takeaway for their lunch. Apparently the sight of customers ordering between 10 to 15 packets each are normal here. When it is almost my turn, I heard that they are actually preparing order for 100 packs. No wonder the line is moving at turtle speed.I ordered the Adam Spread ($5) consist of mutton rendang, chicken wing, fried egg, bergedel, ikan bilis & nuts, acar and of course the coconut rice. LD ordered Sutra Special ($4.50) consist of otah, fish cake, chicken wing, ikan bilis & nuts. While LD requested for extra chilli, I asked for extra rice and the lady just build rice mountain on my place and with no extra charges. So after 1 hour in line, how is the Nasi Lemak? The rice is very fragrant and unique. They use basmanti rice, which is more healthy than normal long grain rice resulted in more al dante version of rice. Ikan bilis and nuts is crispy and crunchy. The chicken wings are pipping hot, crispy and juicy. However the marination is only skin deep, while the meat is tender but tasted bland. For my mutton rendang, the gravy is thick and sweet. The mutton is tender, but more on the dry side due to the lean meat used. Begedil is very tasty. LD's otah is huge in size, creamy and very flavourful. The fish cake is springy (qq) and in her opinion, the sambal (chilli) is the top notch and star attraction here. It is sweet, not to spicy, with multiple layer of flavour and very appetizing. No wonder people willing to line up, like bees going for their honey. The service here is very friendly but your patience will be tested while waiting. Normally there will be two lady serving, however today she is flying solo. Also, the popular stall next door was on holiday, so their customers went there to overcome their cravings for nasi lemak. The positive side of the slow service, is that the kitchen can keep up with demand and churn out pipping hot food. As we ordered the two most expensive set, the rest on the menu are chicken set and fish set ($3.50 each). Consist of chicken wings / fried fish, fried egg, coconut rice, sambal, ikan bilis & nuts. There are some other dish you can add to your set, unfortunately you can't order extra chicken wings.Overall, we can now say we tried No.1 Adam's Nasi Lemak. The pricing here is very reasonable. However, if you ask me to wait for another 1 hour for a grub of Nasi Lemak here, I will say NO! But if I am around the area before or after the peak hours, I might try my luck and eat here again.

Many know that when it comes to Adam Road's Nasi Lemak, there's always only No. 1. If you queue long enough, then there's delicious nasi lemak to be had. The rice is extremely fragrant. The chicken wing is fried till golden brown and perfect. The ikan bilis are very crunch and the begedil is excellent with the potato extremely tasty. I also like the chilli sauce which has a tinge of sweetness.

I asked Mom to buy this for me for late lunch after she ends her work. This nasi lemak store is really nice. I like the rice. It's rich in flavor. As, as you can see, the rice is separated and not mushy or too moist that they stick together. I tried it before with the chili and it was really good. Spicy. Up to my standard. However Mom forgot to ask for it. The chicken is not too oily i think because they have drained the oil before serving. Good .

This is a memorable dinning experience for me because Nasi Lemak is one of our favourite local dishes. This is one of the dishes that we will missed whenever we went travelling. We were there for our breakfast this morning. There are 2 famous Nasi Lemak stalls side by side. We had tried both stalls and both are equally good. We decided to order from the No 1 stall today as we did not want to queue at the other stall. The sambal chilli tasted remarkably good, it tasted even nicer when mixed it with the kacang and ikan belis. The level of spiciness was just right. The fried chicken wing was nicely marinated and well-fried to give it a nice crispiness. The fried egg was rather average though and the yolk was a little overcooked. I prefer it to be soft and runny. The banana leaf otak was a good addition, chunky pieces of fish meat can be found embedded in the otak mixture. The spiciness was just right as well. The rice was another important factor to determine a good Nasi Lemak. The texture of their rice was rather light and flavourful, the grains were nicely separated. It definitely complemented all the dishes well. It was definitely a highly satisfactory breakfast, a little too heavy though but a good start to a new day. We enjoyed it.
