Let’s be honest—midweek blues are real. Mondays are a shock to the system, Tuesdays are just Monday’s annoying cousin, and by Wednesday, all we want is a hug… or better yet, a steaming plate of something that feels like a warm hug. Enter: Harummanis Dubai’s new Weekly Nasi Lemak Special.
You heard that right. Every Wednesday and Thursday, Harummanis (a.k.a. the Singaporean-Malay gem by Chef Akmal Anuar) is serving up a beloved Malay classic that’s basically a national treasure: Nasi Lemak.
Chef Akmal Anuar Brings Comfort Food to Dubai
If you don’t know Chef Akmal, think of him as the culinary wizard who could probably make a flip-flop taste amazing (not that he ever would). With roots in Singapore’s iconic Kampong Glam and a Michelin Bib Gourmand award already under his belt, he’s now sprinkling some heritage magic right here in Dubai.
Harummanis isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a vibe. Think elevated hawker flavours, nostalgic dishes, and the kind of food that makes your tastebuds throw a mini party.

What’s on the Plate: A Mouthwatering Breakdown
So, what makes this Nasi Lemak special worthy of its own spotlight? Oh, let’s count the ways:
- Fragrant coconut rice that smells like a tropical vacation
- House-made sambal that kicks (gently… then with flair)
- Crispy anchovies + roasted peanuts = crunch squad
- A classic hard-boiled egg and fresh cucumber for balance
- And for the main event: your choice of ayam goreng rempah (aka crispy spiced fried chicken) or golden fried fish.
Every bite is a rollercoaster of flavor—spicy, nutty, savory, cool, and utterly addictive. It’s not just food; it’s a cultural mic drop on a plate.

Only AED 51: Your Midweek Treat is Calling
Let’s talk numbers. For just AED 51, you get all that glorious, belly-hugging goodness at Harummanis 51. And yes, the name’s easy to remember because the price matches the vibe—simple, satisfying, and totally worth it.
