Nasi lemak hawker Ellis Phua first caught netizens’ eye last year, when they claimed that she resembles Mediacorp actress Vivian Lai. Well, the 42-year-old has been busy since going viral. Her hawker stall 97 Nasi Lemak at Old Airport Road Food Centre, which serves wallet-friendly Chinese-style nasi lemak with crispy chicken wings and fiery sambal, now has a second outlet at North Bridge Road Market & Food Centre.
She got her original stall halal-certified last year (the new joint’s halal application is still in the works). Despite the rising costs of ingredients (like super expensive eggs) plaguing the F&B industry, Ellis has not raised prices for nasi lemak sets at her current two outlets, which offer identical menus.
