Best Nasi Kerabu in Penang

Written by Updated ago

First impression is always the best impression, but how much does it relate to food? A Malay delicacy dish originated from Kelantan and its bright blue in colour, you surely know, raise the curtain for Nasi Kerabu. To clear your curiosity, the lovely colour comes from butterfly-pea flower, which exudes a heavenly aroma too. It’s also infused with heaps of herbs and usually paired with fried mackerel, salted egg, fresh salad and crispy crackers. Despite being a traditional Kelantanese dish, there are plenty of mouthwatering spots in Penang that are rave-worthy. How good is it? Is it equal to the east coast? Let your palate do the crucial judgement!

    Delicious breakfast is the best way to kick start a day, then Nasi Kerabu fits the spot. This eatery is burrowed between a residential area and only available for breakfast. Looking at the hordes of regulars, it definitely justifies jumping out of your bed early, even on a Sunday. The rice is well infused with spices and pairing the mound with crackers, deep-fried fish and crunchy salad it absolutely perfect.

    Looking for smorgasbord of east coast meals that are easy on the wallet and joy for your palate? This humble restaurant is vastly vaunted among regulars, from breakfast to lunch; you’re spoilt with endless varieties. The interior houses a few traditional sloping gable huts, separating the snacks and nasi kerabu. Their rice is mild and fluffy, imbued with coconut milk, lemongrass and several other herbs, which makes it good on its own. But with fried fish, fried chicken, seafood and array of vegetables by the sides, you’ll wedge your plate with as many dishes possible.
