Jalan Alor Food Street
Kuala Lumpur's legendary 500-metre food street in Bukit Bintang, packed with hawker stalls, seafood restaurants and open-air tables every evening.
Jalan Alor is a roughly 500-metre street in Kuala Lumpur's Bukit Bintang district that transforms into an open-air food destination after dark. Hawker stalls and seafood restaurants spill onto the road with tables and plastic stools, under the glow of neon signs and retro shophouses.
What to expect
The street mixes Malaysian, Chinese, Indian and Thai cooking in one place. Many stalls have English menus, prices are generally reasonable, and the mood is loud, smoky and fun. Touts and set menus aimed at tourists are common, so check prices before you order.
What to eat
Try grilled seafood, satay, curry mee, noodle dishes and lok-lok skewers, plus local desserts and fresh fruit.
Visitor tips
- Most places open from around 5 PM, with many staying open until midnight or later.
- Getting there: Bukit Bintang MRT station is a few minutes' walk away.
