Having lived in Kuala Lumpur for around 12 years I always found time to explore new places. Sometimes I would venture out to places like Melaka or Port Dickson, and other times to Penang or Cameron Highlands. But most of the time I would explore KL and look for interesting places where I could take my family for a nice day out or fun places to eat or shop. These are some of the places that I most enjoyed.
Jalan Alor
This food street is one of the most famous in KL and located just behind Jalan Bukit Bintang. At night you can find all kinds of food including seafood, chicken wings, satay, mee goreng, barbeque meat, steamed corn, fresh fruit juice and all varieties of Chinese and Thai food and more. In the mornings and during the day vendors sell fruits, vegetables, different varieties of durian and nasi padang amongst other things. When I first moved to Kuala Lumpur I lived very close to Jalan Alor so would walk past it every day and frequently ate here. Jalan Alor is also a must to bring visitors when they come to Malaysia. The street is bustling and alive at night and great fun to sit and enjoy a delicious meal with friends.
