Eating Out in Kuala Lumpur |

Eating out in KL can be very, very cheap. Street vendors are all over the city and dish out what is known as ‘hawker food’. This is portions of rice, noodles or soup which are served in small, medium or large portions. Extra portions of ingredients such as prawns can cost extra.
If you don’t fancy eating from a plate in the middle of the street, the best parts of the city to dine out in are Chinatown and Little India. There are thousands of both nationalities living in the Malaysian capital so you know what you are getting it authentic.
Like most South-East Asian cuisines, ingredients such as coconut, lemon grass and chilli are all strongly evident. Some of the country’s most popular dishes are Ayam Goreng which is chicken marinated with various spices, Nasi Dagang which is rice and coconut cream, and Keropok Lekor which is fresh meat ground to a paste and mixed with sago.
