There are plenty of charming neighbourhoods in KL that are worth a visit, but if you’re a serious foodie who can’t get enough of Malaysia’s best street and hawker food, look no further than the bustling streets of Cheras, where the charming enclave of Taman Connaught beckons with its unique blend of residential tranquility and a thriving culinary landscape.

While the local community throngs to its renowned pasar malam (night market) that opens every Wednesday, Taman Connaught unveils a hidden culinary tapestry that extends beyond the lively stalls. Located at the confluence of three major roads – Kuala Lumpur Middle Ring Road 2, East–West Link Expressway and Cheras Highway – the residential township is a convenient place for locals and visitors to get good food from. Exploring the diverse array of eateries within this small township reveals not just a variety of mouthwatering flavours but also a culinary narrative deeply cherished by its patrons, many of whom have been visiting for decades.
