We had such a Good time! Tried various Traditional dishes. Rayhan Raj Naidu was fun, he told us some very interesting facts about some dishes that have been around for centuries. Make sure you wear sunblock.:)

Fabulous Culture and Food walking tour

Munir was a fantastic host as we explored the food and culture of Kuala Lumpur. We explored places we would never have found on our own and sampled lovely food from various stalls/ restaurants, which were really authentic.
