Ban Heng Nasi Lemak (万兴椰浆饭) @ Chong Pang Food Centre [Singapore] #chongpanghawkercentre

As a long time patron of Chong Pang hawker center, I have my regular stalls but would, sometimes, take the opportunity to observe the customers flow of other stalls and make a mental note to check it out in the future. 

One such stall was Ban Heng Nasi Lemak (万兴椰浆饭); with its signature green colored rice, I had encountered occasions for which the line can be pretty long although there is a relatively famous nasi lemak stall just two blocks away. 

What's most important in a nasi lemak for you? Aside from the rice cooked in coconut milk and pandan leaf, I would need chicken wing and fried egg. Sadly, eggs were sold out and I had to make do with Set 2, which had luncheon meat instead.

Covered with just a thin layer of batter, this was surprisingly good and tasted very much like comfortable, homemade, deep fried chicken wing marinated with simple seasonings. 

Pretty juicy too! 

Nothing much to say about luncheon meat, which tasted like your usual Maling brand. Despite having the flavor of coconut milk, the experience was marred with overly mushy rice. This was when the sambal chilli came in handy; it complemented the mushiness and piqued the taste buds with spiciness that had a  subtle sweetness. 

I should have ordered another chicken wing. 
So wasted, the sambal chilli.
