Nasi Lemak Cikgu, Kelana Jaya

Alright, after quite a number of non halal posts, think it's high time I post a halal one? ;p
WF asked if there's anything different from the usual haunts near my area..
and I thought..What about nasi lemak Cikgu?
She was so excited (since she have not tried it before), it took quite an effort for her not to drag me out from my house immediately..
Chill woman, chill...
So there we are, in less than 10 minutes (yes, it's that near my humble abode...).
It was rather quiet at the eatery, we were the fourth customer..
I thought Nasi Lemak Cikgu is famous? WF whispered..
Erm, yeah..
Then where's the food? WF asked uneasily..
Looking rather scarce, Nasi Lemak Cikgu serves nasi lemak with a choice of fried chicken or sotong. No other lauk, no rendang nor kerang..
Poor WF looks disappointed..haha
So we had nasi lemak with ayam goreng (fried chicken) The rice was fluffy, warm and fragrant; the chicken, if you managed to get the freshly fried ones, was juicy, sweet and tender. The marination was rather light, yet distinct. As for the sambal, it was very watery, with lots of onions. It's the sweet spicy type, so some would love it, while others wont be impressed at all..
The nasi lemak with sotong..The sotong was cooked in some peanut-satay like sauce which was surprisingly tasty. Some of my friends preferred the kuah sotong over the sambal..
Though WF was not blown away by Nasi Lemak Cikgu, we can safely say that this place serves a nice nasi lemak, but not impressive. Makes me wonder why it's so famous....

Nasi Lemak Cikgu is located at 14 Jalan SS5B/2, Kelana Jaya, 47301 Petaling Jaya. At LDP, drive pass Giant Hypermarket (on your left). Drive further down LDP, you will see the gray/ metal Kastam Building. Turn left, drive straight pass the first traffic light. You'll see a field on your right, turn right after the field. Nasi Lemak Cikgu is in the middle of the row of shops.

I wasn't too impressed either - they seem to have lost their original oomph and customers.
