NASI LEMAK BURGER RETURNS

Remember how triggered you were when McDonald's Nasi Lemak Burger came and swiftly left in 2017? Well, it is back (from $6.20 a la carte). From today, it is available at McDonald's Singapore alongside other returning classics such as the Banana Pie (from $1.40) and Chendol McFlurry (from $3.10).
