Update: This business has ceased its operations.
Spicy Lemak uses three types of rice: red, yellow and blue. The colors come from pitaya (dragon fruit), turmeric and butterfly-pea flower respectively. Overall, the rice is tasteless and lacks aroma. If any coconut milk is used, its amount must be minimal.
The Chicken Whole Leg (RM14.90) also comes with a piece of lorbak (卤肉), hard-boiled egg, fried anchovies, roasted peanuts, sliced cucumber, chopped onions and fried cabbage. The dish is served on a piece of banana leaf. I think the fried chicken is way too dry. The saving grace is sambal (chili paste), which is moderately spicy and has mild sweetness.
Dragon Fruit (RM5.90) is a tangy drink with pitaya flavor. There are also several large pieces of longan. A lemongrass stalk serves as the stirrer. Nothing to shout about, really.
