Sampling Street Delights and Fine Foods in Kuala Lumpur

One of the street-food capitals of Asia, there are almost too many 'must-try' dishes in Kuala Lumpur. The cuisine is a literal melting pot of Malay, Chinese and Indian flavours; a reflection of the city's rich multiculturalism. If breakfast isn't served at your accommodation, start the day at a Kopitiam (coffee house) for Malay coffee and kaya toast with eggs.

Popular dishes for any meal include nasi lemak (coconut rice, sambal, anchovies and egg), char kuey teow (seafood noodles), roti canai (flatbread, filled or to accompany curry) and curry laksa (fiery coconut curry with noodles).

Whilst the street food is amazing, the fine dining scene in Kuala Lumpur is also worth experiencing. Michelin star dining options include Babe, a Japanese-Tapas fusion restaurant, DIN, a halal dim sum mecca, and TAKA, dubbed the world's best sushi restaurant.
