malaysian grub
I’ve just had a most intoxicating conversation with a friend about food that I am going to eat when I am in Kuala Lumpur. Here is my divine list:
- the soto ayam and nasi lemak in the Sunday night-market in Taman Tun Dr Ismail
- the nasi lemak with the best sambal kerang sold from the back of a van near KLCC LRT on weekday mornings
- dim sum in the Mandarin Oriental Hotel - it’s halal
- Italian at Oggi, Regent Hotel
- Indochine along Heritage Row - fantastic food in a great environment
- Kafe Ceylon Hill - most romantic environment in the evening and very good food
- the north Indian in the 4th Floor food court of KLCC
- the vegetarian Indian restaurant (franchised from India) along Jalan Maarof in Bangsar
- maggi mee goreng in Lotus, Bangsar
- nasi
lemakgoreng kampung in Chili Kitchen (or something like that) in Desa Sri Hartamas - French pastries in Jerome’s in that Allied-building along Jalan Yap Kwan Seng
- the Ayutthaya Thai restaurant near HELP College, at the “corner” of Jalan Damansara and Jalan Maarof - but only with one particular friend for sentimental reasons
I’m sure there are a few more that I would definitely want to do in January - it’ll come to me at a more sociable hour…
