When we talk about Malaysian food culture, Nasi Kandar is practically a national treasure. Think hearty mix of white rice with rich, flavourful curries and sinful side dishes that leave us wanting more. It’s no surprise Nasi Kandar has been a go-to comfort food for generations. And, among the most iconic names tied to this dish is Hameediyah, Malaysia’s oldest Nasi Kandar establishment, serving since 1907!
NEW Hameediyah Multi Cuisine @ Semua House
Started in Penang, Hameediyah has grown into a legendary name. Now, their Semua House outlet brings a fresh twist with a “Multi Cuisine” concept, offering more than just traditional Nasi Kandar.
As you walk in, the interior blends classic Arabian charm with modern flair, creating an ambience reminiscent of their Bukit Bintang outlet but with its exclusive touch!
Here, you’ll find a fusion of flavours from Arabic and Western dishes to classic Indian cuisine alongside their signature dish.
Here’s What We Tried
Nasi Kandar
Of course, we have to start with their Nasi Kandar. With over 40 side dishes to choose from, you can mix and match dishes like white rice and more, vegetables, chicken, beef, seafood and the list goes on – making it easy to customise your plate exactly the way you like it!
So whether you’re on a budget or feeling indulgent, no worries! For those looking beyond Nasi Kandar, the menu offers plenty of variety too.
Mix Platter
This platter includes Chicken and Lamb Kebab and Chicken Tikka, paired with Black Seed Naan and Sesame Naan. It’s definitely a scene-stealer for meat lovers!
Chicken Grill & Lamb Grill
If you’re looking for Western, these are for you. Both portions are so hearty and served with fries, vegetables and a rich black pepper sauce.
Murtabah & Thosai Ghee
Craving for some light bites? Get the Murtabah! It’s a crispy, flavour-packed stuffed flatbread filled with spiced minced meat and egg.
Of course, there’s Thosai Ghee too!
No meal is complete without their refreshing drinks! For a sweet and tangy treat, go for their signature Indian Mango Lassi or keep it classic with a frothy glass of Teh Tarik!
