In my area, you can still get nasi lemak for RM1. There would be rice, sambal and meat like a portion of chicken or fried anchovies and egg. To some, it might not be a lot. To me, it's enough for a simple breakfast. There's a downside though. No veggie! This is one of my favourite. Nasi lemak with anchovies and egg. It's wrapped in banana leaf, which give the rice more aroma. The stall is not near my house. Since I'm driving today, I decided to stop and buy two. It's not like I can eat it everyday after all. What about in your area? What breakfast can you get for the value of one?

Before speaking, I must first convert your currency into rupiah.

Unfortunately we do not have something similar here, but back in the Philippines we do have those. My favorite is when it has chicken or pork adobo with the rice wrapped in banana leaves. The spices of the adobo and the fragrant of the banana leaves make for a very aromatic meal.

Yes, the warm rice will bring out the fragrant of the leaves more. Which is why I love this kind of nasi lemak more.

Anchovies on pizza is a rarity here. Mind you, most of the anchovies sell here are the dry type.

There's no food I can buy for the value of Rp1 since $1 is same as (about) Rp14.000, so Rp1 is sooo small.

Everything is expensive now, are suffering because of this pandemic and the economy is going down. People are been retrenched from work they don't have money to put food on the table, we should start farming so that we have something to eat at a lower price
