Signature nasi lemak with crispy chicken, coconut rice
"Lots of Instagram-friendly corners here. The dish here might not appear in the film, but it captures its spirit: a coming together of cultures, humble and heartfelt. Nasi lemak — rice steamed in coconut milk, served with fried chicken and a jammy egg — sits comfortably beside the Filipino silog breakfast of garlicky rice, pickled atchara, and something savory on the side. Both are working-class comforts, wrapped in love and labor." - Rooksana Hossenally
"The Coconut Club proves that change can be good as long as the rice remains the same. They recently moved into a bright two-story shophouse, which is a kind of historical building with internal courtyards scattered throughout Singapore, and still execute their excellent nasi lemak (a.k.a. their signature coconut rice dish) along with some nifty additions: a slew of curries, an extensive dessert selection, and an exciting cocktail menu. If you’re somehow not full on fishcakes and vegetable curry, have a coconut shake or their pineapple Old Fashioned as you seriously consider moving to Singapore." - anthony eu
"Now in a whitewashed traditional shophouse that channels tropical vibes—wicker-back chairs, banana leaf–print wallpaper, and cheerful blue-and-white tiles—the coconut-led menu spotlights a best-selling nasi lemak set, while ayam goreng berempah (spiced fried chicken with crispy rempah crumbs) and a sago pudding with pandan, palm sugar, and coconut cream deserve equal attention." - Mikka Wee
"This whitewashed traditional shophouse evokes unmistakably tropical vibes – wicker back chairs, wallpaper with banana leaf prints and cheerful blue-and-white tiled flooring. On the menu, the coconut theme is also obvious – the nasi lemak set is the best seller, but other dishes deserve equal attention too, such as ayam goreng berempah (spiced fried chicken with crispy rempah crumbs), and sago pudding with pandan, palm sugar and coconut cream." - Michelin Inspector
