In Kuala Lumpur, there are many places where you can eat deliciously and cheaply if you know where to go. The main gastronomic areas for budget travelers are Chinatown and Little India.
Best locations for cheap food:
- Chinatown (Petaling Street and around): Here you'll find cheap food courts and street stalls. Look for the famous Ikan Bakar (grilled fish in banana leaf) or Wong Ah Wah (chicken wings). A plate of rice with chicken or seafood costs 10-15 MYR (≈190-285 rubles). The food court inside Central Market (Pasar Seni) also offers a wide selection and affordable prices.
- Little India (Brickfields): An area where you can try authentic South Indian cuisine. Drop into any eatery with the sign "Banana Leaf Rice" — they will serve you rice on a banana leaf with a choice of curries and vegetables. The cost of such a meal is about 8-12 MYR. Don't miss the local sweets in the pastry shops.
- Jalan Alor Night Market: This place is more for atmosphere than for saving money. Prices here are 1.5-2 times higher than in the areas listed above. But if you want a noisy evening atmosphere with seafood and beer, you can stop by.
- Food courts in shopping malls: For example, in Suria KLCC (near the Petronas Towers) or Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, there are large food courts with fixed low prices and a huge selection of Malay, Chinese, and Indian cuisine.
What to try and how much it costs:
- Nasi Lemak — national dish: rice cooked in coconut milk with anchovies, peanuts, egg, and spicy sambal sauce. At a street stall — from 5 MYR.
- Roti Canai — flatbread with curry. Costs 2-4 MYR per piece.
- Juice or local coffee (Kopi) — 3-6 MYR.
