Nasi Kandar Pelita at Plaza Shah Alam occupies lot G-28 on the ground floor, operating as a 24-hour Indian Muslim (Mamak) restaurant. It is part of the well-known Pelita chain, which has been serving nasi kandar across Malaysia for decades. The Shah Alam outlet serves as a round-the-clock dining option for the local community, popular with late-night diners, students, and shift workers.

Choices typically include chicken curry, fish curry, mutton varuval, squid sambal, and a rotating cast of vegetable sides. Roti canai, roti telur, murtabak, and teh tarik are staples of the Mamak breakfast and supper trade. The restaurant also serves maggi goreng, nasi goreng, and other quick-prepare dishes.

Pelita Shah Alam has been my go-to spot since I was a kid, and it still hits every single time. The food is consistent, the service is fast, and the vibes feel like home. No matter how many new places open, I somehow always end up back here. It’s just that reliable
