Great experience, however most kept offering seafood, and as I don't eat seafood I found sourcing other variety difficult. One stall at the end on the left offered Chicken Based dishes.

This was the first place we went to try out some local food. The food was good but we found this place very expensive when compared to other food options in KL.

Pretty good and tasty at least to me! Its a bit messy, may want to bring your own nut crackers, though the crabs are cracked before serving, sometimes not all the way (I guess you can ask for additional cracking).

After walking for a while to find somewhere to eat we stumbled upon Jln Alor, we walked up and down the street checking out all the stalls, stall holders were thrusting menus at us but they were happy to let us read them then carry on. The stalls were packed and it was difficult to decide. In the end we... More
