Singaporean influencer claims Malaysia has the better nasi lemak
“It’s unfair that you have the better nasi lemak than Singapore,” said the TikToker as the clip began. He then shared that he was about to fly to Kuala Lumpur because the Malaysian capital is where he had the best nasi lemak.
After a short 45-minute flight, they headed to their destination — Village Park Restaurant.

This netizen, however, disagreed with Darshen’s recommendation, claiming Village Park Restaurant was overrated. Another even said he could not tell the difference between “authentic” nasi lemak and that from other stalls.

On the other hand, some commenters took issue that Darshen flew over for nasi lemak.
“I don’t fly to Italy because they made better pizza,” one commenter said. “Be contented with [sic] what your country can offer.”
