Kelantan Breakfast: Delicious, Affordable, and Satisfying Until Lunch!
Kelantan is well known for its mouth-watering breakfast dishes that not only please the taste buds but also keep you full until noon. Among the most popular breakfast items are nasi berlauk (rice with curry and side dishes), nasi kerabu (herb rice), nasi dagang (rice with fish curry), and nasi tumpang (layered rice in banana leaf). While nasi lemak is also available, it’s not as sought-after as these Kelantanese staples.
Food stalls and restaurants open as early as 6:30 AM, welcoming early risers from all walks of life — mosque-goers returning from dawn prayers, office workers rushing to start their day, teachers and students heading to school, and busy mothers who didn’t have time to cook at home.
What’s more impressive is the price — nasi berlauk can be as cheap as RM2, making it affordable for everyone. Of course, if you want something extra tasty with generous portions, it might cost around RM4 — still a great deal! One of the all-time favourites is nasi kerabu served with grilled beef. Now that’s a breakfast worth waking up for!
You’ll find rows of stalls and local coffee shops lining the streets, tempting both locals and domestic tourists to stop by for a hearty meal before heading back to their hometowns. While folks in Kuala Lumpur might go for nasi lemak or roti canai for breakfast, in Kelantan — you’re spoiled for choice!
Kelantanese people take their food seriously. No matter how simple the dish may look, taste and quality are never compromised. The secret? They cook from the heart — and that’s what truly satisfies those who eat it.
Wouldn’t you agree, friends?
