The price here is not dirt cheap, and the food is not fantastic either. There are tons of stalls and restaurants here, and I guess you have to be lucky or know the place well enough to know which stall to patronise. It's quite a scene though - you can't find many of this kind of streets. Also, one should... More

I had read lots of write ups about how great the hawker food is but that's a lie. First up you have to find the damn stalls you can't see anything for bags then you have to walk down dodgy alleys and back streets as there are only a few inside the main petaling street area. We paid MR 51... More

Very tasty food at unbelievable prices. Difficult to choose which stall to go to but we were staying with relatives and friends who knew their way around. These places have a real buzz about them and choosing different courses and sharing makes for a great dining experience.
