There are quite a number of makan places that I started going regularly after I got a transfer back from Miri to Kuala Lumpur back in 1997. Some are no longer there, while some are still standing strong. For example, the Seng Nam coffee shop near Bangunan Abdul Samad closed its doors some 10 years ago after serving KLites their signature roti bakar and coffee for 85 years!
Meanwhile, Nasi Lemak Tanglin in Lake Gardens, first opened in 1948, is still standing (although not exactly at the original location), and is still my favourite nasi lemak in the Klang Valley.
The other place I have not stopped frequenting till this very day is Ikan Bakar Istana Negara, Jalan Bellamy. People can say this or that place have better ikan bakar, but I come back here again and again cos it's familiar and is still so damn good. (Specifically, the Sri Melaka stall.)
But, how come there's a row of ikan bakar stalls just outside of one of the gates of the old Royal Palace? Watch this video below!
