Nasi Kukus Tonggek

This is Nasi Kukus Tonggek with chicken at MYR 10.90 nett bought from the food court at IPC on Tuesday 16.mar.21 when we went there for an errand. We ate it on the same day for dinner. Taste good.
 
On Wednesday, 17.mar.21, I noticed that there is this new Nasi Kukus Tonggek kiosk in Aeon Food Court at Midvalley Mall. Will buy from them next time. They also sell fried tofu, fried fish, fried squid, and fried tempe.

Seems like it was located in the food court on the highest floor in 2019 as mentioned in this article:

Pay extra MYR 1 nett for takeaway packaging.

This is how they serve the rice for dining in, in a stainless steel tube.

This is the kiosk in IPC food court.

The signboard.

It occupies quite a large area 

Good that the packaging is a cardboard box that is more environmental friendly.

    What an interesting name. I was trying to think what tonggek means and when I googled, the example given is when someone walks, their butt juts out. LOL!

      Supposed to pour out from the tube if you read the article in the link. Wonder why they name it as such.

    I have eaten this before in IOI City Mall foodcourt. Long queue and the deep fried squid finishing fast. I only managed to try the fried chicken dish. I don't taste anything special about this nasi tonggek except that the rice is served in a can which we pour out to eat. It is merely some fried chicken with rice in curry sauce.

      I think the curry gravy is a bit different cos it is a bit sourish. Maybe the fried squid is the special, not the chicken which is also what we ate.

      I think fried squid should be more popular.

    So it's a chain. Must be quite good. I keep thinking it sounds like chicken butt which is 'tongkeng'.
