The Coconut Club

The Coconut Club reimagines nasi lemak as a craft dish, sourcing specific coconuts and cooking the rice to a fluffy, intensely fragrant standard that's won serious acclaim. The signature set pairs that rice with juicy ayam goreng berempah (spiced fried chicken), a complex sambal, anchovies and egg. It's a stylish sit-down restaurant rather than a hawker stall, with prices to match, but the quality is undeniable. The Beach Road premises are comfortable and great for a leisurely brunch. Come for a polished, modern take when you want nasi lemak with a tablecloth.
