Being one of Singapore's most well-known dishes, it takes a lot to stand out but Ponggol Nasi Lemak hits all the right spots. The chicken drumsticks are freshly fried and crispy, making for a sinful indulgence. The chilli complements the dishes well, and has just enough kick without overpowering the dish. However, the fried egg stole the show; what is seemingly a simple sunny side up is actually still runny and soft in the centre, including part of the egg white. Eating the rice with the runny egg is simply heavenly. However, choosing around 4-5 dishes (including vegetables) could jack the price up to $7 or more, depending on what you order. The quality of the food, plus the fact that it opens till late (which makes it a good supper place) barely justifies its exorbitant price for nasi lemak. I would recommend trying it as it makes for good comfort food in the middle of the night, but the high price is a turn off.
