About Nasi Lemak Wanjo
Nasi Lemak Wanjo in Kampung Baru is one of KL's most talked-about nasi lemak stalls, with over 10,000 online reviews. The base plate costs RM5.50 to RM6.50 and comes with coconut rice, a whole hard-boiled egg, cucumber slices, ikan bilis, roasted peanuts and a generous scoop of sambal. Side dishes are added separately: ayam goreng berempah at RM6.50, rendang daging at RM7 and sambal sotong at RM6.
The operation runs like a cafeteria line. Pick your rice, point at the sides you want, pay at the end. The system moves fast, but the queue can still stretch 20 to 30 minutes during peak hours around 7 to 9 am and again from 7 to 10 pm. The stall opens at 6 am and closes at 12:30 am, so late-night visits are an option. Cash is preferred. Kampung Baru is a five-minute walk from the Kampung Baru LRT station on the Kelana Jaya line.

The sambal here is the star — slightly sweet, rich and not overly spicy. I had the nasi lemak with ayam goreng berempah and sambal sotong. The coconut rice was fragrant and the fried chicken had a thick spice crust. Total was about RM14 and I was stuffed.

Queued for 25 minutes during the 8 am rush but the line moved fast thanks to the cafeteria system. The rendang daging was tender and deeply flavoured. The base plate with egg, ikan bilis and peanuts is just RM5.50 — good value. Cash is best here.

This is the nasi lemak I compare everything else to. The sambal has a smokiness that other places cannot replicate. I always get the sambal petai as a side — the stink beans with chilli paste pair perfectly with the coconut rice. Open until 12:30 am, so it works for supper too.

Walked over from Kampung Baru LRT station in five minutes. The operation is efficient — point at what you want, pay at the counter, sit down. My plate of nasi lemak with ayam goreng and sambal sotong was RM16 and every component was well-executed.

The nasi lemak is solid and the sambal is genuinely good, but the 7 to 9 pm dinner rush makes it hard to find seating. I came at 10 pm on a weekday and had a much better experience — no queue and the food was still fresh. The rendang was slightly dry by that hour though.
