top 5 - nasi kandax

yeah! nasi kandax.
i went out juz now with buttercup and i said i wanna post something on nasi kandax, so here they go..
nasi kandax got its name from a time when nasi [rice] hawkers or vendors would kandar
[balance] a pole on the shoulder with two huge containers of rice meals.
for me, nasi kandax is just like hiphop haha, it has old school (traditional and operates around penang) and new school (modern & got branches around Malaysia)
here for more info
my top 5 nasi kandax will be..

no.5 - kassim mustafa jetty branch, chulia street
this outlet is so famous that it was featured a few times in mami jarum movies.
i heard that the keys of their success are their mixture of spices and the penang's water they used to cook their rice and meals.
strategic spot near tourism attractions give them some advantage to be well known internationally.
must try - nasi & kari ayam (probably the best in georgetown)

no.4 - nasi kandar pelita yellow house branch, sungai dua
the best of the new school haha.. since i spend most of my time watching football here, i think they deserve to be in my list..
the first branch of pelita is in chai leng park, butterworth and they started like 11years ago..
now they are global players having a few branches in mumbai and even featured in a tamil movie a few years back.
the staff here give good services, friendly, and are football lovers
must try - dhal & ayam goreng

no.3 - nasi kandar line clear, penang road
yeah, line clear macha.. this is where the name came from'
this nasi kandar is a hotspot for those who work around georgetown
very famous and well-known among tourist and a must visit food outlet for them
it is in old school category and serves the customers with street scene of georgetown
must try - everything haha

no.2 - nasi kandar raffe, pulau tikus
i was introduced to this nasi kandax restaurant by my senior madet and since then i became a regular here
and the best time to be here is at 11 p.m. and above, when this place is so alive..
i prefer to eat here whenever i'm really hungry, huhu
why? because the size of it's ayam goreng, rite after finish eating, you'll feel like sleeping..
ini betul2 bukan cobaan..
must try - ayam goreng (perrrgh)

no.1 - nasi kandar kampung melayu, kampung melayu
yeah..... the best, for those who never experience it, you should..
buttercup, u must agree with this rite?
it has 2 branches, 1 in flat kampung melayu (morning only) and another in desa mawar..
no explainations, no arguments, simply the best...period!
must try - everything, yes everything
