Here's the lightly edited review: "Innovative menu choices for otah, but the portion is small even for the larger banana leaf portions. Chicken wings are way too tiny to get a good bite. Good for a quick fix, but it can be improved in many ways."

Just an alright Nasi Lemak, not that great, but it's fine if you want a simple nasi lemak.

Rice was hard and dry. The fried wing and fish were soggy. The whole meal was cold and stale.

I bought a pack of Nasi Lemak and went straight to my office in five minutes, but everything was cold. The rice was a bit fragrant but cold. The otah was cold. The chicken wing was also cold. Luckily, the ikan bilis and peanuts were crispy; otherwise, there's really nothing nice about this pack of Nasi Lemak. And there was no egg, either?! This is the first time I've had a Nasi Lemak set meal that doesn't come with an egg by default. So strange.

Lee Wee's banana otak was one of my favorite go-to snacks in Singapore. Today, I stopped by Lee Wee to buy five banana leaf otak at Raffles City basement. This has been my usual purchase for the past 15 years or so. I was so disappointed that Lee Wee had substituted pieces of real fish with pieces of fishcakes. No! What made Lee Wee's otak different from the others is no longer valid. In today's F&B market, substituting cheap ingredients will kill your product and business. It starts with "the standard has dropped" followed by the final death knell of "cannot make it."

It's an okay place if you're looking for a quick meal fix. Everything, from the sambal chilli and peanuts to the other components of the nasi lemak, was pre-packed. So, you simply order, and they scoop a bowl of rice, add all the packets into the box, seal it, and pack it. By around 6 PM, they only had the chicken cutlet nasi lemak left, which limited our choices. We also added a banana leaf otah, and the ladies were nice enough to throw in an extra one. An extra star for these lovely gestures, but there's significant room for improving the overall customer experience. Located on the basement floor of Raffles City, near Din Tai Fung and the entrance of Cold Storage.

One of the best Otah! The rice box is also not bad.

The otah and nasi lemak at Lee Wee & Brothers at Raffles City were a delightful treat! The otah had the perfect balance of spices, and the nasi lemak was fragrant and flavorful. The combination of these dishes created a mouthwatering experience that left me craving for more. The attention to detail in their preparation is evident in every bite. Highly recommended for anyone looking to savor authentic and delectable Singaporean cuisine. The customer service at Lee Wee & Brothers was truly exceptional. From the moment I walked in, the staff was welcoming, attentive, and eager to assist. They went above and beyond to ensure my experience was comfortable and enjoyable. Their friendly demeanor and willingness to accommodate requests added a special touch to my visit. Without a doubt, the outstanding customer service at Lee Wee & Brothers made my nasi lemak and otah experience even more memorable.

I enjoy their fish otahs. The spiciness level is good. They make a great snack when you feel peckish. The staff explained the different flavours and sizes of otahs well. 👍🏻

I just came back after buying their curry chicken rice from the Raffles City Outlet. The food was tasty. The chicken was fresh and tender. The gravy was really delicious. The server who recommended the dish to me was a male cashier, and he was very efficient. I would definitely come back to try varieties of their otah rolls.

The rice is rather flavorless and too dry. The large squid otah is good. Prices are reasonable.

I had a takeaway set meal from their Raffles City outlet for a weekday dinner. The cost was about $5.50 to $6 each. I have personally tried their chicken cutlet as well as their honey glazed chicken wing. Both were of acceptable quality. However, the size of their otah is inconsistent. I suggest the management QC their otah supplier so that your customers will not feel shortchanged. Overall, their food is hygienic and meets my standard, as they packed the sambal chilli and peanuts separately.

I got to try this during one of the company workshops I attended. It was a packaged nasi lemak. It was cold, but it tasted nice and was acceptable. Just the sambal packaging needs to improve, as it was difficult to tear off. I tried very hard and even used my teeth, but in the end, I had to use scissors to cut it. 🤭 It's quite good that it indicates when it was prepared and when it's best consumed by.
Robin Zheng
Worth trying. Felt like standard fare. The sambal was prepackaged. Wings were reasonable. The roasted prawn was tasty but cold. Cheap and cheerful, at $10 per person.

This popular local favourite comprises fragrant rice cooked in coconut milk and pandan leaf, accompanied with hot relish, peanuts, anchovies, traditional fish cake, egg, and playful cucumber slices.
