Best Nasi Arab in Penang

Speaking about delectable meals that enhance moment of togetherness among family and friends; Qasar Hadramawt is dubbed as one of the finest places to do so. They do score points with their immaculate interior and attentive hospitality, yet the main draw is their staggering choices of Middle Eastern cuisine under the stewardship of a chef from Yemen who has plenty of experience up his sleeves. Their Nasi Arab has splashes of engaging colours and the long rice texture gives a smooth mouthfeel. Among the most ordered dish to pair the huge mound of rice is lamb, mixed with heaps of spices and wrapped in aluminum foil and cooked in a brick oven. If grilled meat is your choice, opt for their mixed platter. 

First of all, you wouldn't believe this stretched stall serves Nasi Arab as it exudes all elements of a nasi kandar stall. Tucked along the tranquil streets of Kepala Batas, locals make a beeline for their scrumptious spread of dishes, from cockles, squids, prawns, mutton and everything you fancy in a nasi kandar joint. Their fried chicken definitely comes out on top, huge slices of chickens are constantly dropped in a hot vat of oil.  Drench your mound of fluffy rice with a medley of rich curries and a slab of piping hot chicken, crispy on the outside and moisture sealed within, its lip smacking good. A frothy teh tarik is perfect for a happy ending.
