REVIEW: Good Nasi Lemak in Singapore: Wild coco nasi lemak

I have been on the hunt for nice nasi lemak around Singapore and I found Wild Coco. Wild Coco is tucked in a coffee shop near Boon Keng MRT station. They are sharing the same premises as Bugis Xin Yuan Ji Fish Soup. They specialize in Malaysian-style Nasi Lemak. Malaysian coconut milk rice is served with sambal, fried crispy anchovies, toasted peanuts, and cucumber.  Wild Coco is not a halal-certified eatery.

Address: 122 McNair Rd, #01-45, Singapore 320122
Opening Hours: Mon-Sat 10.30 am -  9 pm

They have 3 choices here : 
  1. Ayam Berempah Leg
  2. Ayam Rendang
  3. Sambal Fried Fish

Everything is served with fragrant coconut rice, sunny side up, ikan bilis, peanuts, cucumber, and sambal.

I ordered the Ayam Berempah Leg. I can see that the skin was absolutely crispy. What makes this dish extra special is the crunchy crumbs that come along with it. These crumbs, which are lavishly sprinkled over the fried chicken, are produced from the leftover spice combination used to marinate the meat. Infused with a fragrant blend of herbs and spices, including lemongrass and ginger.

Alot of nasi lemak stalls don't have the perfect fried chicken but this was quite good! The chicken was absolutely tender and also juicy! 

The coconut rice was fluffy and mild in flavor, yet it was delicious on its own. The chili was flavorful, but it overwhelmed the rice when eaten together. The fried egg was also delicious. The fried egg was on point too. Look at the runny yolk! 

I have tried Dickson nasi lemak recently who is also serving Malaysian style nasi lemak and also Chinese style nasi lemak like Hi Leskmi.
