I'm pretty sure all Malaysians have their very own favourite mamak stall or their favourite place to eat nasi briyani or nasi kandar. Honestly, to tell the truth, as a Malaysian, I haven't eaten nasi briyani before in my life! Until today that is. Well, it's not the original , authentic nasi i must say but at least it taste like one. I know, from my experience from eating real Indian food, authentic Indian food is rich with flavour and spices. But this nasi briyni i tried was very normal but still acceptable to me, especially for someone who hasn't eaten nasi briyani before. The place i eaten this delightful dish is at Summit, USJ. A place called, Mamak Village. It was formally named "Mamak Tong". Probably from "tong" which means stall, it became a village maybe??? Compared to an original mamak stall, either at the road side or a normal open air restaurant, this mamak is air-conditioned and it's in a shopping complex. So, i guess i can say it's a little more tasteful with the decoration? I mean what can an original mamak on the road side decorate, right? Besides being different from it's location and others, it is still a normal mamak with real mamak food, from roti canai, Maggi mee goreng to nasi kandar. Their Milo and Nescafe is definitely "kau" like the real mamak. So what it's not original and it's a little different? This Mamak Village has definitely given Malaysians a different feel towards roadside mamak and brought it to a different notch. Though i still love the roadside mamak cause it just feels so Malaysian-lah...
