The chicken rendang nasi lemak is delicious, though a small portion, and the Maggi Goreng is packed with flavor.
The biryani combo is reasonably priced and offers good value, and the mint juice is amazing.
The latte is really good, costing RM14 for a small 8 Oz cup, and every person needs to order a drink.
The chocolate bingsu and Basque burnt cheesecake are delicious, and the friendly boss and attentive staff even help take photos.
The beef rendang is perfection with tender beef and flavorful gravy, and the flat white with oat milk is considered the best coffee by visitors.
The tamarind nasi lemak with its next-level sambal hebi is super satisfying, and the pandan kaya toast has a perfect balance of butter and kaya.
The owner delayed her closing time for customers, and the frappe, scrambled eggs, and French toast are highly recommended for breakfast, with food described as "worth every penny."
Locals send people for the amazing coffee and the "best salmon sandwich," at a reasonable price, where you can stay for hours using their games.
This cafe offers food with "very special flavours," including tender chicken and awesome iced coffee, in a calm, quiet, and not crowded setting.
Three countries worth of experience packed into one Malaysia trip, from towering skyscrapers to ancient mangroves, solid choice for anyone travelling solo and wanting variety without constant hopping.
Swimming in the freshwater lake on Dayang Bunting island was the highlight for me, so peaceful after the noise of KL, this itinerary really balances city and nature well.
Went alone after years of only family trips and this gave me confidence, Penang's street art walk was a nice surprise addition, though I wish there was more free time built into the KL leg.
The Kilim mangrove cruise in Langkawi with eagles circling right over the boat was the morning I will remember longest.
Good bones to this itinerary but the pacing let it down for me. KL barely got a full day before we moved on, and the connecting flight up to Penang sat delayed for over an hour with nobody at the counter explaining why. Loved the mangroves once I finally got to Langkawi, at least.
Penang Hill funicular ride gives you the whole island in one frame, and the mangrove cruise through Kilim Geoforest Park the next day in Langkawi was equally stunning, saw eagles circling right above the boat.
