1. Limapulo:Baba Can Cook
This is a Malay-Nyonya restaurant that has been on the Michelin list for four consecutive years. Among Malay cuisines, I like to eat Nyonya food the most, because Nyonya food combines the cooking skills and taste of Nanyang Chinese.
The photo should be the founders. You can see that they are wearing traditional clothes and have Nanyang characteristics.
This restaurant is very popular. In Malaysia, any restaurant that can get Michelin certification is very popular because the consumption here is not expensive, with an average of 20-40 ringgit per person.
There are many things on the menu. In order to avoid being confused, I chose the most popular dishes based on the recommendations of most netizens.
Most of the people who come to eat at noon are office workers nearby, so there is no need to queue.
A cup of Nanyang-style teh tarik. The teh tarik here tastes good and moderate in taste. I don’t like drinks that are too sweet.
Satay chicken skewers, satay means grilled skewers. The white one should be Nyonya cake. The chicken itself is marinated. To eat satay, it needs to be paired with sauce. This dipping sauce is slightly sweet and not spicy. I am not used to the spicy taste in Southeast Asia.
This is one of the store's signature dishes, called shrimp tart. It is made of shrimp and crispy shell into the shape of an egg tart, with vegetable salad inside. You can dip it in the sweet and salty sauce. It is very delicious.
The restaurant is located near the World Trade Center. Parking is not easy around. You need to park in a parking lot in a nearby building. The passage in that parking lot is very narrow and the parking fee is relatively expensive. It is best not to drive here.
Address: Limapulo (Limapulo Baba Can Cook)
2. Ali·Han Muslim Buffet Hot Pot
A newly opened Chinese northwest-style self-service hotpot on Petaling Street. The owner is from Qinghai. The northwest flavor is mainly reflected in his northwest noodles such as Youxiang and bitter bean rolls.
You can choose between hot pot and barbecue, or both, and the per capita consumption is around RM40.
There is a wide variety of ingredients, including everything you should have, including desserts and ice cream.
You can choose the mandarin duck pot as the bottom of the pot, barbecue and hot pot are both available together.
The location is opposite the famous Chinese Ramen on Petaling Street, but it can’t be found on the map.
Address: Baker Street (Petaling Street)
3. Halal Malatang
Petaling Street is a Chinese food street, and next to the Muslim hotpot there is a Malatang that does a good business.
This Malatang used to be a Ma Jinlong franchise store, but it is no longer there. There are two branches in the same street.
The style is the same as in China, you can choose your own ingredients, and the vegetarian and meat dishes are the same price.
In fact, the taste is not as good as the spicy hotpot in China, but the business is booming, and the diners are mainly Malays.
Address: Baker Street (Petaling Street)
4. BARTOLO LISBOA BAKEHOUSE
This was the first time I saw a Portuguese restaurant, so I came over to try it out of curiosity. This shop specializes in Portuguese bread and also has simple meals.
The owner looks like a serious Portuguese at first glance, and the menu is all in Portuguese. I asked the waiter to recommend a local specialty to me.
This egg-like pancake is called Bolo do caco. It is a round flatbread with a shape like a fire and a soft texture. It is a traditional Portuguese staple food.
Portuguese egg tarts are probably the most famous snacks in Portugal. This authentic Portuguese egg tarts are larger, thicker and sweeter than the egg tarts we eat in China.
I ordered a strawberry milkshake for my son. The freshly squeezed strawberries and milk tasted sour and sweet, and it was quite delicious.
The prices in this store are on the high side, with the three items costing a total of RM64.
Address: Bartolo (Bartolo Lisboa Bakehouse)
5. VILLAGE PARK RESTAURANT
This is a very famous nasi lemak restaurant in Kuala Lumpur. I have been here twice, both times at noon. It is very popular and you have to queue for more than ten minutes during peak hours.
Although there are many people, the service is still very good. The waiters are unhurried and arranged in an orderly manner.
Nasi lemak is the national dish of Southeast Asia. Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia all consider themselves to be the birthplace of nasi lemak.
My experience is that just choose their signature chicken drumstick nasi lemak, the others are not as delicious as the signature.
This meal only costs RM12, so the value for money is really hard to beat.
Their store opens at six in the morning, and you can have hot spring eggs dipped in bread for breakfast.
For drinks, we recommend a cup of white coffee, which is the most popular coffee category in Southeast Asia.
Address: 5, Jalan SS 21/37, Damansara Utama, 47400 Petaling Jaya, Selangor
6. Steaming Era
When eating seafood in Kuala Lumpur, the first choice is a restaurant opened by Chaoshan people. This steamed seafood restaurant is the most delicious seafood restaurant I have ever eaten in Kuala Lumpur.
Malay seafood restaurants often sell dead frozen products. Only Chaoshan people prefer fresh seafood, because the fresher the seafood, the less fishy it smells.
The method of steaming seafood is also simple. Put the raw porridge at the bottom of the pot, put the seafood on top, cover it, wait a few minutes, and you can eat the seafood on top. After eating the seafood, the porridge at the bottom is also ready, and the seafood soup will flow into the bottom of the pot, which is delicious.
There are many kinds of seafood in this store, and there are many ways to eat them. The seafood can be eaten raw or steamed.
More than a dozen kinds of dipping sauces, mix and match as you like.
Their signature milk tea is better than other milk tea shops outside. It tastes sweeter and sweeter. The waiter even asked me what I thought of the taste. I said it was very good.
This thing is very similar to northwest pasta. It is made by Chaoshan people with Hui oil flavor. It is a thin layer with a hollow inside, which can be eaten with vegetables.
The seafood casserole porridge, the seafood in it can be tasted and the ingredients are fresh, definitely not made from frozen products.
The prawns and scallops are both alive and will jump around when put in the steamer.
After steaming the seafood, I just had porridge. This steamed dish, paired with their dipping sauce, is more delicious than eating Malatang.
Seven-star spotted fish is a fish that we all like to eat. It has no small spines and the meat is tender and firm. It has no shortcomings except that it is expensive.
I have been to this steamed seafood restaurant twice, and each time I ate different dishes, they all tasted great. If you don’t eat expensive ingredients, the per capita consumption would be around RM70.

7. Yunye·Yunnan Rice Noodles·Sichuan Small Bowl Dishes
Friends who want to eat Yunnan rice noodles in Kuala Lumpur are in luck, a Yunnan rice noodle shop has opened at the back of the Bank of China Building.
They specialize in a variety of small bowl dishes, but the rice noodles are what attracts me the most.
The diners at noon are mainly office workers nearby. This kind of small bowl dish is convenient to choose and the price is cheap.
The rice noodles are made in the traditional Yunnan way, with mint added and the beef soup stewed very thick.
Address: 1, Megan Avenue, C-0-7, 189, Jln Tun Razak, 50400 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur
8. An Bang Paradise Chicken Rice Restaurant
This chicken rice restaurant is one that I often visit. It is a pork-free restaurant run by a local Chinese. The chicken rice is very delicious.
This is also a traditional Nanyang Chinese craft that has been practiced in Ampang for two generations.
For chicken rice, you can choose either plain-cut chicken or grilled chicken legs. I have tried both, and they are both delicious, and the accompanying dipping sauces are amazing.
The store's homemade herbal tea and Fuzhou fish balls show that their ancestors are from Fujian.
This is for dine-in dining, and you can also choose to take it out. They will pack it in a sealed box, and the taste will not be affected at all after it is opened.
The Ampang Paradise Chicken Restaurant street reminds me of Penang, because this area is also a gathering place for Chinese.
Address: 158, Jalan Besar Ampang, Pekan Ampang, 68000 Ampang, Selangor
9. BARRACA
This is a newly opened Spanish restaurant in Ampang, and its main specialty is of course paella.
I have eaten Spanish restaurants in Indonesia before. There are also some restaurants in China that make Spanish paella, but it is difficult to eat authentic ones.
Facts have proved that Spanish paella is just that, not that good, because the rice they use is a bit hard, and it mainly depends on the freshness of the ingredients.
This shop has just opened and is very popular. There are only a dozen staff working in the kitchen.
The bread that comes with the meal is a standard feature of Western food.
This thing that looks like sushi is topped with octopus. Spanish and Portuguese people like to eat octopus.
This goat cheese salad is very delicious, mainly because the cheese has a rich milky aroma. Spain has a well-developed animal husbandry and first-class dairy products.
Address: L1-08 The Campus Ampang Jalan Kolam Air Lama, Mukim, 68000 Kuala Lumpur, Selangor
10. Hai Kah Lang
Hai Jiao Ren is an Internet celebrity Michelin restaurant in Kuala Lumpur, specializing in a variety of seafood and Nanyang Chinese snacks.
The difference between this store and Steam Times is that this one is a food stall, while Steam Times is a more high-end business dinner. In the steaming era, seafood was steamed, but this restaurant mainly specializes in spicy stir-fried, fried and various curries.
When Chinese people eat seafood, of course they still have to eat it fresh.
Haijiaoren is quite large, but it is still full, and you have to queue for more than ten minutes for lunch.
We followed the recommendations on Dianping and chose the most popular signature dishes.
A cup of Hainan tea, Hainan tea is white coffee, and a cup of lemongrass lemonade.
This is called soft fried crab, and you can eat it with the shell because it is really soft.
I still chose my favorite seven-star grouper. This kind of fish is delicious no matter how you prepare it, as long as the ingredients are fresh.
This is mixed seafood, with kway teow at the bottom. The kway teow is like vermicelli or rice noodles. The soup base is Tom Yum Goong. This bowl is very generous, with shrimps, crabs, shells, and fish in it. The meal costs 60 ringgit per person.
