Uncle Roger
Uncle Roger, whose real name is Nigel Ng, is a Malaysian comedian.
He shot to fame back in 2020 when he released YouTube videos commenting on videos of people cooking fried rice.
Uncle Roger opened his first restaurant in September last year at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur.
He proceeded to open three more outlets in Kuala Lumpur, including a 24-hour branch at KLIA2.
There was a lot of anticipation for the fifth outlet in JB, as many Singaporeans would finally be able to try Uncle Roger's fried rice for themselves.
