Review
The main reason I love to come here is for a Biryani Rice. Biryani rice is a spicy rice with multiple colors grains of rice together with cashew nut. It is available on every Friday morning only. Briyani rice is more expensive compared to normal steamed rice but the taste is splendid. I usually buy for taking away and enjoy it at home since it is more satisfying to eat without noise. In addition, nowadays the drinks are more expensive and it cost around RM1.70 for a cup of hot coffee.
The services are average due to lack of manpower as they are open for 24 hours daily. It is recommended to avoid during peak hours to buy the food as the queue may be long and may take more than half an hours just to buy it.
- Morning Peak Hours: 7:30 AM - 9:00 AM
- Afternoon Peak Hours: 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM
- Evening Peak Hours: 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM
The food is not expensive but sometimes they do overcharge more than the usual price. As a customer, we have the consumer rights to question or know why the price is higher.
Please file a complaint if you notice any Nasi Kandar restaurant overcharge the food. Remember to get and keep your receipts before lodging a complaint at KPDNKK.
