hi, was confused about the nasi kandar and nasi melayu

are they both the same? Coz I heard that nasi kandar is raelly unhealthy, makes you fat, etc. Plus the oil they use is often recycled. Is nasi melayu similar?

got nasi melayu kah ~~ never heard of it before...

anyway, most of the good taste food is not a healthy food...foods like burger, nasi beriyani, mee goreng mamak, etc contains a lot of fats...once in a while is ok to consume la...it's for your mind break after training like hell...

kopitiam issue. it's not belong to H&F

If you are concerned with the health factor,they are both bad!

Both oily & health hazardous.

rice mix with oil == too much calorie == fattening. Same as fried rice and all things fried.

but everything also rice mix with oil wait

u eat fried fish + white rice = oil + rice

unless u can afford to eat sashimi everyday la

economy rice is also the same as nasi melayu, oily stuff mar..

so what to eat then

Ikan bakar / ayam bakar / daging bakar / Egg white . Try to reduce the oil. I know it's hard unless you cook yourself. But you still need good fat in your daily diet. at least 15% of your calories

Nasi Melayu tastes much better than nasi kandar.

MUCH, MUCH BETTER !!

Just a tad of caution ... both use lots and lots of santan

Really? Must gv it a try then. Nv heard of Nasi Melayu b4. But I did eat nasi campur Melayu b4 but prefer Nasi Kandar over it. The taste was heavenly but too bad, cannot be eaten regularly. And nothin tasty in this world in healthy

where is mod when we need him.....

Why is this here? Haha.

Never heard of nasi melayu though.

never heard of nasi melayu also... hehe.... but nasi kandar is fattening yes i know, we all know

nasi kandar is fattening only if u take the oily stuff.

the rice is white rice no? B grade carbs. ain't that bad.

i normally take white rice, lotsa vege and a piece of chicken.

ur meaning of nasi melayu is mixed malay dishes wit white rice izit ?

nasi kandar use a lot of herb n spice..
that y their food are pekat if u compare to malay food..
not so healthy r..
i rather eat at tepi jalan store maa..
mamak food often recycle..
last 3 year i buy a food from mamak store..
when i back home..
the food smell lain..
*mamak sama la dgn nasi kandar..
and malay food are a cair bcoz malay like me are kedekut..
haha!

everything that tastes good is usually unhealthy...

kthxbai

nasi melayu is malay rice sell by malay..nasi kandar is by mamak.. they call it nasi kandar cuz last time when it first started out is bby a mamak kandar-ing the rice everywhere to sell...
some history for u guys..

i see. frankly, i never heard of nasi melayu before..

u go malay stall then eat nasi that 1 call nasi melayu lo.. some stall will write nasi melayu la.. or u ask them what they sell they sure say nasi melayu

u mean, nasi with lauk? or it is a special cooked rice?

i call it nasi campur kedai melayu.

dem still alive this thread...so, nasi melayu is white rice + lauk² kah ?? ahaaha so awkward la the name...nasi melayu...hohoho

does this thing belong here?
