With a mix of cultural influences on the nation's cuisine, it's no wonder that Malaysian food is a lip-smackingly complex beast.
We'll meet in the old district of Chow Kit and Kampung Baru, one of the last remaining districts that is yet to be developed into glassy high rises.
Don't expect other foreigners. Stroll in this local neighbourhood of nightly street eats, sampling a variety of 15+ tastings, carefully curated for their culinary history.
The flavours change across the year, but highlights include the fragrant bowls of laksa, hand stretched rotis, nasi lemak with piquant sambal and herbal chicken rendang, charcoal-grilled mackerel, and soothing iced cendol with custard-like durian. We'll end with a fine view of the mighty Petronas Twin Towers.
I'm sure you have a lot of your plate, but here's some food for thought. While it's possible to attempt such a culinary marathon yourself, you'd be one sandwich short of a Malaysian picnic not to join me on our moveable food feast.

5.00Fantastic tour with Ian We had a great time with Ian. From the beginning he made us feel welcome and really looked after — always checking in, easy to talk to, and genuinely fun to be around. It felt more like exploring KL with a friend than being on a tour, which we really appreciated. We’ve done many food tours on our travels, and this one stands out as one of the best. Warm, personal, relaxed and memorable. Highly recommended.
Great good tour

5.00It's a wonderful opportunity to experience the diverse and inclusive food culture of Kuala Lumpur. The guide was also very attentive to needs and it was possible to substitute a lot of things if needed. The amount of food should satisfy anyone.

5.00This was a very nice experience despite a steady rain. Steve, our guide, was very knowledgeable about the food, its history and the difference in preparation based on culture plus he had a good sense of humor. The food was quite good and plenty of it! Come hungry. Our group had a very good time and at 4 hours we got to know each other a little as a bonus.
Great food, great guide.

5.00Stephen was a great guide and most of all, a nice, relaxed and knowledgeable guide. The food was good quality and his explanations and descriptions easy to understand and informative. We had a great afternoon. Stephen had plenty of suggestions for thr coming days and offered any further assistance needed. As it was reasonably heavy rain for the start and end of the tour he ensured the venues provided cover and also ensured we were all organized and safe to get back to our motels and helped with booking transport. Thanks mate.

5.00We had a great time touring the different street food market areas with Ian (Chow Kit, Kampung Baru, Ampang Street). He made it simple and fun to understand more about the local culture, introduced us to different ingredients in the market and shared the core recipe for each dish we had during the tour (and we had a crazy lot of them, spread across fruits, drinks, desserts and popular dishes). Hands down the best evening experience in KL, especially for those who are visiting for the first time and would love to learn more about culture and history in short while savouring delicacies and bonding in a small group setting. Ended the night taking pictures near Saloma bridge and Petronas towers with our hearts and stomachs beyond full.
Time to cook Malaysian!

An ok food tour

3.00This was the first food tour we have ever done, so maybe my expectations were too high. I realise Malaysian food takes influence from a lot of different places but I often found the guide saying a dish was from Indonesia or somewhere else, not Malaysia, which seemed strange to me. The tour follows a set route but that means you end up eating sweet stuff before more savoury stuff, which is a bit weird to stomach. Overall none of the places stood out except Wanjo, which we already knew about. For the price of the tour for 2 people, we could have bought 4 meals at a mid range restaurant.
Fantastic food tour

A memorable sambal food trip with lucid storytelling, warm personal touches, and Steve’s exceptional guidance that made

5.00Yesterday’s sambal food trip was an absolute delight. I genuinely enjoyed the entire experience — the flavours, the stories, and the easy, unhurried flow of the tour. The guided walk was well-structured and surprisingly lucid; every dish came with context, history, and fun anecdotes that made the whole journey richer. A special mention to Steve — his enthusiasm was infectious, and his descriptions were so vivid that half the taste came from his storytelling itself. He added a warm personal touch throughout the tour, making sure everyone felt included, curious, and comfortable. It never felt mechanical or rushed; more like exploring KL’s food soul with a friend who knows all the hidden gems. Overall, a memorable and thoroughly enjoyable experience. Highly recommended!
