My earliest memory of Sea Park, or Seksyen 21, in Petaling Jaya all those years ago is the novelty of having nasi lemak at night in a back alley. Bumbung Nasi Lemak is still a popular late-night supper spot whose business extends from the five-foot way of corner shop Restoran Sun Fatt Kee to the entire length of the alleyway, which would be lined with plastic tables and chairs by dusk and ready for its patrons that keep coming back for the purveyor’s staples — nasi lemak and Indomie ayam.
In addition to Bumbung Nasi Lemak, the commercial area in Sea Park — bounded by Jalan 21/1, Jalan 21/21, Jalan 21/22 and Jalan 21/11, and on Jalan 21/12 — is home to a vast array of rave-worthy eats, many of which have become popular over the years.
