Introducing NAKU by NALE | Authentic Nasi Kukus for Everyone

Introducing NAKU by NALE | Authentic Nasi Kukus for Everyone

🇲🇾 From the Creators of NALE, Comes a New Chapter

When we started NALE Nasi Lemak, our dream was to elevate Malaysia’s national dish — to prove that Nasi Lemak can stand proudly beside any world-class cuisine.

But along the way, we realised something important:
Malaysians also crave simple comfort food — warm, familiar, fast, and affordable , the kind of meal that feels like home after a long day.

That’s why we created NAKU, our sister brand dedicated to the beloved Nasi Kukus — freshly steamed rice served with bold gulai, crispy fried chicken, and rich local flavours.

🍚 What Makes NAKU Special

At NAKU, we stay true to the roots of nasi kukus — simple, soulful, and cooked fresh daily.
Every element is crafted with care, using the same discipline and systems that power NALE’s kitchen consistency.

🔹 Freshly Steamed Rice, Every Hour

Unlike pre-cooked rice, our nasi kukus is steamed in batches throughout the day, keeping every grain hot, fluffy, and fragrant.

🔹 Signature Kuah

Our curry is made with spices slow-cooked in coconut milk, capturing that unmistakable kampung richness.

🔹 Crispy Fried Chicken

Marinated with turmeric, lemongrass, and traditional herbs — fried golden, juicy inside, and perfectly crunchy outside.

🔹 Affordable for Everyone

We believe good food should be accessible to all.
NAKU brings you premium taste without the premium price tag.

“NALE was created to elevate.
NAKU was created to unite.”
— Andreas Domingo, CEO, NALE & NAKU

NALE elevates.

Together, they tell one story — the story of Malaysia on a plate.
