While not unique to only Malaysia, I really enjoyed the hawker food stands that are everywhere. It amazes me how there are just so many of them and how these small businesses are able to survive when you consider the competition and relatively low price point of the food in general. I am somewhat of a night owl and quite frankly nothing like that exists even here in San Francisco, a fairly top notch foody town. Everything here pretty much shuts down at night fall, especially after say 9pm. In KL, the Jalan Alor food was amazing, with its blocks of food stands ready to serve locals and tourists alike into the night hours. Unfortunately, I missed the weekend night market at Jonker Street in Melaka this time around but it is def on my list when I return hopefully to take care of the final MM2H steps.
