Guillemard market (not to be confused with old airport market), every food stall can get under 2.50.

Except 1 which is selling malay food.

The coffee shop near me, the elderly lady seels Chai Tow Kuay, $2, $3...black or white, in the past, $3 include 1 or two small prawns, not prawns is missing. For $2..you do not expect much right!!, but can do!. Unless, you are "member"..maybe $2 you get $4 portion with prawns & Bandung thrown in...but, she is not supporting "members"... ha ha ha

Actually, I am surprised no one mentions nasi lemak. I am not talking about those that you buy at the hawker centre nasi padang stall, where you choose what item you want. I am talking about those already prepared ones, wrapped in the banana leaf. You buy them at the kopi tiam, and they are usually supplied by some food contractor to many kopitiams. Inside there is coconut rice, one slice of egg omelette, small fish or ikan bilis, one or 2 slice of cucumber, and chilli. With my kopi cost of 80 cents per cup, and one packet of nasi lemak, comes in at under $2.50 mah. Only problem is you have to eat it cold.

If you want hot nasi lemak, you can get it from the shops at the mrt stations - anandas or khun thai or other shops............
Usually at about $2 or $2.20 with coconut rice, 1 chicken wing and 1 egg or coconut rice, 1 sausage, 1 egg and 1 slice of fried fish fillet.
But to be under $2.50, no kopi, have to go to the washroom and drink tap water. :o
