Wednesday: Pasar Malam Taman Connaught
Pasar Malam Taman Connaught a.k.a Cheras Pasar Malam needs no introduction as it is quite literally the most popular pasar malam in Kuala Lumpur. Despite being overly gimmicky and a little too pricey for pasar malam standards, we personally think everyone should visit this place, at least once.

Friday: Pasar Malam Seksyen 3 Kota Damansara
Pasar Malam Seksyen 3 Kota Damansara is one of the most underrated pasar malam that deserves more attention in the Klang Valley. This is mainly due to their wide array of food from different cuisines.
Malay cuisine takes center stage in this night market hence do expect mouth watering Malaysian dishes such as Roti Bom, Kuey Teow, Nasi Campur, and various malay kuih.
Address: 58, Jalan Teknologi 3/9, Kota Damansara, 47810 Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia

Saturday: Pasar Malam Setia Alam
Many of you probably thought Cheras Pasar Malam is the longest pasar malan in KL. No, it is not! The title belongs to Pasar Malam Setia Alam, it’s 2.3KM long and is recorded in the Malaysian Book of Records.
Since it’s the largest pasar malam in Malaysia, expect a wide variety of food. Sadly just like Cheras Pasar Malam, most food here are too gimmicky for our liking. But still, we like the good balance of Chinese and Malay stalls instead of one overpowering the other.
Some of the good food here includes Mamma-Mia Coconut Ice Cream, Taiwanese Egg Burger, Teluk Intan Chee Cheong Fan, Pau, Fried Cempedak, Pan Mee, Char Kuey Teow, and the wide varieties of kuih.
