Bak Kut Teh
Bak Kut Teh is a popular Chinese soup that is served in Malaysia, Singapore and Southern Thailand. Each city creates different types of Bak Kut Teh. In Kuala Lumpur you will find the herby one with only lean meat.
Its name literally means “meat bone tea” and it consists of meaty pork ribs, herbs, spices that are simmered for hours! The preparing method is similar to an old English quote: haste makes waste! The longer you simmer the soup the better it will taste!
This dish is a totally street food, as it is cooked in large amounts, which are eaten right away! Don’t try this soup inside the shopping malls!

Doubtless it is very unique the way the dish looks like, because it truly makes the first gourmet impression. Beside the fact that a claypot gives the best possible taste to any dish it also makes it look fantastic.
Claypot Loh Shu Fun is translated as “rat powder”, because of noodle’s resemblance to rat’s tails. Just imagine a mixture of noodles, ground chicken/pork/beef, carrot, garlic, shallots and chicken stock is topped with light, dark soy sauces and oyster sauce and the most phenomenal ingredient – the cracked raw egg. A perfect yummy dish!
Yong Tau Foo
This is a very nice meat, fish or both food in KL. One type of popular Yong Tau Foo is wrapped bean curd sheets with meat, pork or fish paste. After these sheets are wrapped they are fried up in a wok full of boiling oil. There is a vegetarian version of this dish: the filling will be tofu.
It is impressive that lately food stalls in KL began to offer a huge selection of unusual shaped vegetables, tofu, meatballs and fishballs. When we talk about Yong Tau Foo, people relate it to Ampang because this is the area where Hakka people who are the creators of this dish gather in the old days.

Chicken Rice
Chicken Rice is a common dish served by many street hawker stalls. This dish has two main ingredients: chicken and rice. The way chicken is prepared varies from a stall to another, as well as rice preparation. The best combination is: poached, drizzled in light soy sauce and garnished with bits of fried shallot and coriander chicken, and boiled rice with chicken soup, mashed ginger and butter.
This dish is usually served in two plates. One includes a juicy chicken and another good portion of delicious rice. Preparing chicken rice takes not too much time, but the final product is soft, yummy and full of positive energy!

Nasi Lemak
Nasi Lemak is a well known rice dish, in and outside Asian countries. The reason why it has spread around the world is simple: it tastes too good. It is considered as Malaysian national dish and, of course, Kuala Lumpur has the common way of cooking it. One portion consists of coconut milk rice, sambal, anchovies, peanuts and boiled or fried egg.
Some stalls also offer chicken or beef rending. Due to popular demand, many street stalls offer vegetarian variation of Nasi Lemak – instead of dried anchovies, this dish is made with vegetarian mock anchovies. The fact that this dish is affordable is wonderful, starting at RM4 per portion.

Roasted Duck
Roasted Duck is a yummy cuisine that can be eaten normally during lunch and dinner. It can be served with many other dishes, but mostly it is eaten with rice or on a bed of vegetables. If duck is well-marinated with spices then half the job is done! The second cooking step: duck must be steamed until the meat becomes tender. And the last cooking step: it must be deep fried until the skin will be crispy!
The first time roasted duck was cooked in England in the second half of the 20th century. But because people travel and eat a lot, this recipe was spread around the world very quickly. The street stall price is starting from RM52 for a whole huge duck!

Satay
When you say satay you first think of the wooden sticks. Satay, also known as Sate, means a wooden stick embellished with seasoned, skewered and grilled meat, vegetables or both. These little and cute sticks are eaten with sauce. Satay may consist of sliced or diced tofu, chicken, goat, mutton, pork, beef, fish, mushrooms and other vegetables.
Kuala Lumpur offers any type of satay you desire. And if you order meat satay you will receive juicy and chunky meat grill to perfection, not bulked out with fat and gristle in between the meat on the sticks. Satay is usually eaten with the peanut sauce that has the right amount of chili. Fresh fruit juices go very well with the satay!
