A taxi driver was in for a surprise when his passenger requested for a detour but ended up buying him a packet of nasi lemak! So nice siol.

The Changi Village fire that happened yesterday started at the Mizzy Corner Nasi Lemak stall, and it was understood that the fire broke out from a small fire from a kitchen stove, One of the owners of the stall, Ms Mizrea Abu Nazir, whose family has been running the stall since 1997, said that they hoped to open the stall on Wednesday.

It has taken too long, but our national carrier, SIA, is finally serving Singapore's favourite local dishes on board their planes. From July onwards, all SIA flights will have chicken rice and nasi lemak, among other dishes, on their menu. This will be a good way for local Singaporeans to eat a familiar favourite on board, while introducing visitors to Singapore's local dish. This change in menu is part of SIA's 70th anniversary celebrations, and also to celebrate the Singapore Food Festival, in conjunction with the Singapore Tourism Board (STB). The two dish were chosen in a poll that actually meant something, chosen by SIA's customer base online. However, only passengers in the Suite Class, First Class and Business Class will get to enjoy Chicken Rice, Nasi Lemak, Kway Teow Fishball Soup, Chicken & Prawn Laksa and Peranakan Hokkien Mee. Those in economy class only get to enjoy Char Siew Rice and Fried Carrot Cake.

International Nasi Lemak was the king of the Nasi Lemak stalls there in the old days. They were the one with the longest queue and the other two stalls opposite them where the ones I would go to because the queue at International was way too long. But when the queue was short, I would buy from International because I always found that they used better grade jasmine rice and so the texture of the grains were better, unlike the airy, starchy Malaysian type rice that is used by the other two stalls.
