Here are the top four dishes any self – proclaimed foodie must try while out and about in a bustling Kuala Lumpur, tourist hotspot like no other!
KL Hokkien Mee
KL Hokkien mee is a spicy noodle dish which is braised in soy sauce and pork fat along with a stir-fry of cabbage, garlic, pork, and eggs. It’s a great dish to pair up with an ice-cold Tiger beer after a long tiring session of shopping.
Chilli Pan Mee
A Chinese- Malay noodle dish, it consists of minced pork, anchovies, thick noodles, soft poached eggs and green chillies. You also receive a bowl of sweet egg soup packed with saur Mansi leaves to balance the flavours.
Ikan Bakar
Ikan Bakar is an umbrella term for an assortment of seafood which is barbecued over charcoal. Stingray and squid are the general favourites which are served with a sweet and sour sauce known as sambal kecap. The best place to try these delicious dishes is at the Gerai Ikan Bakar Seri Menanti Jalan Bellamy which is just 14 minutes away from many a hotel in Bukit Bintang including the likes of The Westin Kuala Lumpur.
Nasi Lemak
Considered the national dish of Malaysia by many, nasi lamek puts the spotlight on the richly flavoured rice sweetened with coconut milk. It’s usually served with a selection of curries, meats, fried eggs and fresh vegetables such as green cucumbers for that extra crunch.
