Eating Our Way Through Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
We hit the streets of Kuala Lumpur, braving heat and rain to explore iconic sights, vibrant neighborhoods, and the city’s unforgettable food scene.

Our Southeast Asian explorations continue back on the Malay peninsula and nearly equidistant from our previous visits to Phuket, Thailand and Singapore. But this week we’re in the Malaysian capital, Kuala Lumpur, known as a mecca for soaring skyscrapers, big-budget Hollywood films, and one of the most colorful cultures we’ve encountered in the past 3 years. No place captures the flavor of that culture more than the streets of the city, so we’re braving the humidity, dodging the afternoon showers, and heading out in search of the top sites and bites. Let’s get to it.

In 2026, travelers are moving away from checklist tourism and toward passion-led journeys built around food, wellness, creativity, sport, and purpose. Hobby-led travel prioritizes meaning over momentum—turning personal interests into deeply memorable experiences that feel restorative rather than exhausting.
