Instead, the quintessential chilli paste has a mighty strong kick and carries the sweet fragrance of quality belacan, or shrimp paste. This humble stall is located in the Sri Weld Food Court on Beach Street, directly behind Royal Chulan Hotel. It is very popular among locals, and has recently become a hit with tourists, too, thanks to being listed in the Michelin guide!So, what’s good here? All of it! Nasi Lemak Ali serves up six tasty flavours: ikan bilis telur, ikan goreng, ikan masin, sotong, udang, and ayam.
