S’pore restaurant CRAVE launches Thai-style Nasi Lemak, comes with green curry and more

SINGAPORE – Nasi lemak, a staple dish in Malay cuisine consisting of fragrant rice cooked in coconut milk and pandan leaf, is famous in Malaysia and a hit over the causeway.

Award-winning restaurant chain Crave unveiled its exclusive nasi lemak series today, where it has taken a bold step in fusing Thai and Malaysian cuisine into one.

With the tagline #TravelwithCrave, the restaurant aims to bring the taste of these two mouthwatering cuisines to Singaporeans who were unable to travel throughout 2020. This new Thai-Malaysian series will be available for the public starting today and will be launched on delivery platforms tomorrow (March 24).

Here’s a sneak peek of the menu:

Nasi Lemak with Basil Chicken (SGD7.50, approx. RM23)

This set comes with a sunny-side-up egg, anchovies, sambal, cucumbers, and stir-fried chicken with basil leaves and cili padi.

Nasi Lemak with Thai Green Curry Chicken (SGD7.90, approx. RM 23)

Green curry, or Geng Kiaw Wan in Thai, is a dish that rolls spiciness and sweetness into one. It also uses a myriad of herbs and spices to achieve its aromatic and savoury taste.

According to Crave, they are also joined by the Singaporean-based Thai restaurant, Thai Dynasty Makan, to create these new items. They are only available for a limited time, so if you’re currently living in Singapore, don’t miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime chance!

If you’re a fan of milk tea, Crave will be giving away 100 cups of Thai Milk Tea at their Toa Payoh outlet! All you need to do is to take a video of yourself saying the traditional Thai greeting “Sawadikap”. For more details, click here.
