This beloved morning hawker market has been feeding KL residents since the 1950s and remains one of the best places for a classic Malaysian breakfast. The char kway teow, curry mee, and Hainanese chicken rice are standout stalls. Arrive before 10am as most stalls sell out by mid-morning. It is cash-only and seating is communal but the food quality is exceptional.
