When I was travelling towards Kuantan via Karak Highway, came across Temerloh rest stop for some toilet break and brunch before continuing our journey. It was recommended by couple of colleagues about the place decided to try it since coming across the place.

Temerloh rest stop is pretty well developed whereby many stalls selling simple halal foods catering travellers like me.

Nasi lemak is common food for Malay race but the culture had been greatly adopted across all races in Malaysia. We have it for breakfast, lunch, dinner even supper sometimes thou it contain high calories but enjoy it always. Looking simple dish but is hard to master because the rice and the sambal must be balance and it compliments each another.

Nasi Lemak (Great)
[Recommended]
- together with chicken, egg and sambal. The rice is beautifully cook with great fragrance of santan (coconut milk) and not sticky. Most flavourful of all is the anchovies sambal where you can see the whole anchovies with its spiciness going so well with the rice -

Anchovies Sambal (Great)
- unlike many I tasted in Klang Valley, this is something belong to the East Cost continent flavour and style -

Overall, enjoying the typical East Cost style of nasi lemak makes the journey to Kuantan more exciting.
