Bazaar Ramadan Bukit Bintang is a culinary hotspot in the heart of Kuala Lumpur, where the energy of the city meets the traditions of Ramadan. Runs along Jalan Berangan, parallel to the famed Jalan Alor, this bazaar is a stone’s throw from major shopping malls and hotels, making it a convenient stop for tourists and locals alike. The atmosphere is electric - rows of stalls under bright lights, the air filled with the sizzle of grills and the sweet scent of desserts.
For iftar, the choices are overwhelming. Start with nasi lemak, Malaysia’s national dish, fragrant coconut rice served with sambal, fried anchovies, and boiled egg. Try ayam golek, succulent roasted chicken marinated in a blend of spices, or nasi kerabu, blue rice paired with herbs and fried fish.
For something hearty, sup ekor (oxtail soup) and murtabak (stuffed flatbread) are crowd favorites. Desserts are a must - kuih lapis, onde-onde, and bubur pulut hitam are popular, but the star is cendol, a refreshing shaved ice dessert with coconut milk and palm sugar.
Top 10 Must-Try Dishes for Iftar:
1. Nasi Lemak : Fragrant coconut rice with sambal and anchovies.
2. Ayam Golek : A slow-roasted spiced chicken, tempts visitors with its juicy, smoky goodness.
