(beef, chicken or mutton kebabs), ketupat or lontong (rice cakes in coconut or banana
leaves), rendang (spicy marinated beef) and other tantalizing examples of national
cuisine. It is on this auspicious occasion that Istana Nurul Iman is open to the public.
This provides the public and other visitors with the opportunity to meet His Majesty
