Dewakan
🍷 Fine Dining · KLCC, Kuala Lumpur, Kuala Lumpur
2 Michelin starsMichelin Green Startasting menuKLCC view
Order: Seasonal tasting menu built on indigenous Malaysian produce
Malaysia's only two-Michelin-star restaurant and the country's first Green Star. Chef Darren Teoh forages flavours from every corner of the peninsula and Borneo, then plates them 48 floors above the city with the Twin Towers in view.

🍞 Kopitiam Breakfast · Chow Kit, Kuala Lumpur, Kuala Lumpur
heritagefamily-runtakeaway cakes
Order: Roti bakar with house kaya, Hainanese chicken chop, roti babi
KL's grand old Hainanese coffee shop, run by the same family for nearly a century. The kaya is cooked in-house, the chicken chop is a weekend ritual and the marble cake goes home in boxes.
Wong Mei Kee
🐖 Roast Pork & Char Siew · Pudu, Kuala Lumpur, Kuala Lumpur
Order: Charcoal-roasted siew yoke with crackling skin
KL's siew yoke benchmark: the boss marinates, roasts over charcoal and chops every slab himself. The crackling shatters, the meat stays juicy, and it's usually all gone within about three hours of the noon opening. Bib Gourmand since Michelin's first KL guide.
