The 38 Best Kuala Lumpur Restaurants | Eater

"Every Wednesday as the sun sets, rows upon rows of stalls spring to life over a mile-long stretch of road, selling clothing, accessories, bags, handicrafts, and, of course, street food until midnight. Pre-pandemic, there were sometimes more than 700 stalls in attendance; these days, about half remain (though more are slowly returning). Still, it’s the biggest night market in the city, with a vast array of local favorites. Though individual stalls tend to come and go, you’ll likely find an endless list of local snacks, including rojak, chendol, cute multicolored steamed buns filled with chocolate or red beans, and an all-time-favorite: crispy deep-fried chicken doused in an extremely addictive salted egg yolk sauce. Set aside a minimum of two hours and an empty stomach. [$]" - Ian Poh Jin Tze

"In Kuala Lumpur, try the Taman Connaught Night Market, open every Wednesday night until midnight; in Bangkok, perhaps the global capital of late-night street snacks, the Talat Rot Fai Ratchada night market is a good place to start."

first time coming here as well, wear light, half empty stomach (so you won't over bought food 😅) walk, think, buy, eat and drink. some food need to eat immediately so you can feel the oomph, some can keep for the next day if you can't finish it like we do. fried smelly tofu, not to my liking but my son can accept it.

Visited Taman Connaught Night Market and wow, it’s a foodie heaven! Stalls start opening around 5pm++ and the variety of unique food is amazing. The crowd builds up quickly, but that’s part of the fun. I tried the 黄金脆皮烧猪王 (crispy roast pork king) — super delicious, plus the boss and staff were really friendly. Also tried the guava from Guava Enterprise, very refreshing and unique, and the boss there was super nice too 😊. Overall, a great experience with plenty of tasty food around!

Massive night market that’s super popular every Wednesday in Cheras! It stretches really long, like 2km, with non-stop stalls selling all kinds of street food, snacks, clothes, phone accessories, you name it. Tried the stinky tofu, fried carrot cake, and bubble tea, all worth the calories 😋 It does get super packed, so come early if you want to beat the crowd. Great vibes, lots to see, smell, and eat. A fun weekday outing if you're in the area!

Seriously I haven't been here for ages. Finally got a chance to be in KL which coincides with a Wednesday and decided to check this place out again. Took a train to Taman Connaught and walked to the night market. It's probably a walk maybe close to a kilometer but not difficult to get there. There is a direct bus outside the MRT station but I saw the departure time 10 minutes later and thought I be better off walking there. Really an endless stretch of stalls. Try to dress casually as it would be quite humid and warm. Countless things to eat but some seemed to be quite repetitive. I did search for popular stalls to try online but its not easy as most stalls do not have names and I understand the stalls might not be at the same location all the time. The only thing you can gage is probably by the queue. Tried a lot of items during the one hour walk. Mouth just kept eating for the entire hour and didn't stop. Food prices were okay reasonable and nothing much to complain about. Just felt strange when I bought something to eat and saw repeated stalls I would wonder if I made the right choice by buying at the stall or should have waited. For me, nothing to recommend because there's just too much to choose from just buy whatever you like to eat or you want to try. That's just part of the night market culture. If you want to try the popular stalls, then be prepared to queue. Not many have long queues just a handful.

2km night market. Wednesday night only. Lively and festive atmosphere. It was enjoyable. And be careful, they're not accepted for paying by cards. Cash and QR available.

Visiting Pasar Malam Taman Connaught wasn’t just a food trip — it was an experience that touched all five senses and left a lasting memory in my heart. Spanning nearly 2 kilometers, this is not your average night market. The moment I stepped in, I was greeted by a sea of people, sizzling sounds from hot woks, vibrant neon signs, and the rich, mouth-watering aroma of countless street food stalls. It felt like walking into a celebration of Malaysia’s diversity — Chinese, Malay, Indian, and even Thai and Korean influences all blending harmoniously. What made it truly magical? The energy. Every stall owner had a smile, every dish had a story, and every bite felt like a piece of local love. 🍢 Must-try foods? Grilled satay with smoky peanut sauce Crispy fried oyster omelette (oh chien) Freshly steamed dim sum The unforgettable stinky tofu — a bold choice, but worth the adventure! And it’s not just food. There are trendy clothes, handmade accessories, quirky phone gadgets, and even traditional Chinese remedies being sold — each corner a little surprise. 💡 Tips: Go early (around 5:30–6:00 PM) to beat the crowd. Wear light clothes and comfy shoes — it gets hot and packed! Bring cash (small bills) and come hungry! But more than anything, what touched me was how alive this place felt. Locals laughing over skewers, families strolling together, tourists wide-eyed with wonder — it was like a heartbeat of the city pulsing through this long stretch of stalls. If you truly want to feel the soul of Kuala Lumpur, skip the malls and come here on a Wednesday night. Pasar Malam Taman Connaught is more than just a market — it’s a celebration of flavors, culture, and connection.

Parking is hard to find, and if you’re driving, using Google Maps for navigation is more accurate. There are more Chinese snacks than local delicacies. Everything I bought turned out to be a disappointment — I ended up with an upset stomach and threw it all up in the middle of the night.

Very packed. You can find a lot of different variety of food here, not much repetitive and a lot to choose from. You need to prepare umbrella Incase of rain as it doesn't have roof.

The Taman Connaught Night Market (康樂夜市) is quite far from city centre, and therefore it's less well-known among tourists. This is precisely why this night market is perhaps the best in Kuala Lumpur, where it's mainly consisted of locals and authentic, price-friendly food. This is also the largest night market in Kuala Lumpur. Unlike Jalan Alor (阿羅街), which is basically an outdoor food court (not night market), the Taman Connaught is legit, where it's filled with vendors selling night market food/snacks, not restaurants. There are two types of night markets, one being "food market", and one being "shopping" market. Taman Connaught is a "food" night market so you would mainly come here for cheap food and snacks. There are many Taiwanese, Chinese and Malaysian food here. For example, you can find Nasi Lemak, Laksa, Hokkien Prawn Mee, Hong Kong dimsum/BBQ, Taiwanese sausages, stinky tofu, skewers/satay, and all kinds of juices and drinks. However, some of the stalls repeat so you'd see the same thing over the long night market. Do be aware that it only opens on Wednesdays and the location is quite hard to access. I'd recommend doing Grab to there and back so it's safer. This night market is very authentic and is a must if you are here on a Wednesday. Much better than Jalan Alor.

First time here in Malaysia and a local driver suggested we check this out where locals come. We took a Grab taxi here since parking is a pain. This place is very crowded. Rain or shine. Mostly food and not too much for shopping besides some phone and clothing stalls. It's a great ace to explore when it's not too hot or don't mind being in a crowded place. It also helps to know what you kind of what by doing some research, otherwise it might end up walking around aimlessly without knowing what to try.

This is one of the longest night market in Malaysia which happens every Wednesday. You'll know it's on when you start seeing the jam on the Connaught highway. Do be ready to be stuck in the jam for some time if you're visiting. The entire stretch of night market will probably take about an hour to walk from one end to the other with the amount of people there. I think you can find almost anything there from food to phone accessories to car accessories to DVDs movies/songs to cosmetics to clothes and many many more. There are a few stalls which I especially like in this night market. 1) the Smelly Tau Fu which is situated at the start of the night market. 2) the Fruit Rojak located somewhere in the middle, and 3) the Ah Li Shan fried chicken. However, visitors beware of your belongings when you're there as pick-pocketing is quite common there. Parking is a bit of a problem as well, people usually park along the road but I prefer to park at the shop lots in front near UCSI.

Taman Connaught Night Market or I like calling it 'Pasar Malam' is one of the most famous pasar malam even among people not from Cheras. It is open every Wednesday evening. I've always heard about them from my friends and colleagues ever since secondary school. But so far I've only been there once and it was also because there was a period where my sister is very into fruit rojak from one of the rojak stall there. So I went there with her. Was so overwhelmed by the foods they have there. We bought so much that in the end we couldn't finish what we bought (including mango sticky rice, fried chickens, lou han guo, apam balik and of course what we were there for, fruit rojak). We even brought some home for the family. Although we have a super long pasar malam here in Klang/Setia Alam selling similar stuff, the store operators are not the same. Hence, some food are yummier here in Taman Connaught pasar malam which explains why my sis can drive all the way here from Klang. Well, Malaysian never complain when they are traveling for the sake of good foods.

The night market at Taman Connaught is one of the famous night market at Klang Valley. The entire area will jammed up whenever the night market is there and everyone seems to be crazy over it. Out of curiosity, I went to the night market to check it out myself. The night market is really huge, and probably the longest night market I've ever been. There were hundreds of stalls at the market and you'll find almost anything from here. They have food, clothes, household items and many more. After taking a walk from one end to the other end, I realised there was nothing much actually. You'll find stalls selling the exact same thing at the opposite end. In fact, you don't really need to walk the entire stretch to find what you want. I only went there once and never went back after that. Personally, I don't think there are anything too special at the night market and was very disappointed with it.

If you like the hustle and bustle of pasar malam and elbowing your way to your favourite stall is not a problem, drop by  Taman Connaught Pasar Malam. Touted to be one of the biggest and "longest" pasar malam it has a few hundereds stall selling variety of food, snacks and other  products! I throng the pasar malam for snacks. Here, I have my favourite stalls which are also crowd pullers. Number 1 for me is The Angry Cheese Chicken. Big piece of succulent chicken fillet filled with melted cheese and  deep fried to perfection. Every bite is crispy and  the  burst of the cheesy sensation makes it delightful ! The pizza stalls are also my favourite. There is the Taiwanese pizza which is similar to the Chinese pancake with spring onion . The pancake is pan fried to nice golden brown , crisp to bite with fragrant aroma of spring onion. The other pizza stall sells pizza similar to Okonomiyaki. Like the Japanese versions, you pick and choose your filling, from cheese, seafood or sausages  There are many more stalls to explore so do try to make a trip!

My partner used to stay in Cheras so he brought me here since we always talk about the longest night market ever and we finally gave it a try, it starts in the evening and ends around midnight, this place is like food hunting for nice food, so many things to look at. When we arrived, the crowd was already ridiculous since it was near Chinese new Year, such a bad timing and oh wells. We started from one end to another end to see what the hawkers served and cooked, i will list the one i can remember and the ones i always see around which sells the same thing - Tom Yum Fishball, curry fishball, Taiwan Spicy sausages, fried durian, accessories, phone covers, fire crackers, baby clothes, exercise clothes, pyjamas, korean inspired clothes, dresses, coconut ice cream(yummy), BBQ., daily essentials, cakes, snacks, preserved food and etc. Let me tell you my experienced with Taiwan spicy sausage, people say it is the most spiciest sausages and i was so confident because my partner cannot eat spicy and i like spicy - ONE BITE, MY TONGUE WAS GONE!. I needed a drink badly, an ice or something, iquickly ran to the nearest drink station and guess what? there were no drink station in the next 10-20M and my tongue was BURNING! When i arrived a drink station i quickly point and the girl was slowly taking her time in her mind thinking how much ice she needs to scoop and making sure she pours perfectly into the cup and i said HURRY! and she laughed at me with my burning tongue. i ate all the ice and i felt better but only for a second, i keep drinking in the next 4 drinking stations and then i was fine. My partner just kept laughing over and over again. NEVER AGAIN. I came here again the second time and know what to expect and this time i really enjoyed myself have a food spree. From one end to another end is equivalent to one meal if i eat proper i guess. The place is a must to bring foreigners.

Many stalls to explore but don't buy any phone accessories in front of CIMB bank. There is a short, chubby guy selling things which are expensive than other stores and is very arrogant. giving u a feeling if u asked for price for just a thing, u must buy from him...what a world?!
