1️⃣Lai Foong Lala Noodles 麗豐啦啦米 Kuala Lumpur 📍99, Jalan Sultan, City Centre, 50000 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (Thanks @kbearytom !) Located in Chinatown, it received a 2023 Bib Gourmand. Signature dish is Lala Noodle Soup 啦啦米 – fresh clams and shrimp (if you’d like) on thin rice vermicelli, immersed in an aromatic broth infused with Chinese yellow wine and ginger. 2️⃣Kebaya Story (@kebayastorymyy ) 📍12, Jalan Kwangtung, 98000 Miri, Sarawak, Malaysia This restaurant is actually not based in Kuala Lumpur, but in East Malaysia. You can check out their page for a video we did together. They brought the food to me and it was spectacular. 3️⃣十号胡同Hutong Lot 10 📍Lot 10, 50, Jln Bukit Bintang, Bukit Bintang, 55100 Kuala Lumpur, Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Lot 10 Hutong is a heritage food court, with stalls offering over 20 of the country’s most famous street foods. I had the Moonlight Hor Fun (月光河), stir-fried, wok hei’d flat rice noodles topped with a raw egg yolk. 4️⃣Oriental Kopi 东方咖啡 for coffee 📍Lot 1.31.00 Level 1, Pavilion, Bukit Bintang, 55100 Kuala Lumpur, Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Oriental Kopi, established in 2020, is the new “it” chain that everyone was suggesting. It’s a Malaysian kopitiam (coffee shop) that celebrates Nanyang’s food culture. For breakfast, I got a custard tart and Malaysian white coffee, which involves lighter roasting method used compared to traditional darker roasts. It’s typically brewed strong and served with condensed milk. 5️⃣Canton Kitchen 老招牌 Happy Garden 📍LG 1-1 Seri Gembira Avenue, No.6, Jalan Senang Ria, Taman Gembira, 57100 Kuala Lumpur (Thanks, @jj.jerm !) Canton Kitchen offers a variety of traditional Cantonese and Guangxi specialties. Even though a lot of the dishes were familiar, they were served with a distinct Malaysian Chinese spin. My favorites were the Chef’s Special Homemade Rice 秘制家乡扬饭, Guang Xi Stuffed Tofu Ball 广西酿豆腐卜, and Prawn Meat Roll桂花酱茄腐皮虾卷. #chinese #citygirls #travel #malaysia #malaysianfood
