I’ve done it once before but this time was a bit more of a nostalgia trip. For me, breakfast in KL is synonymous with nasi kandar; Malaysian Tamil Muslim food from a cheap restaurant, leaden curries matched with feather-light roti.

KL isn't known for assam laksa. If you have time, and you will if you stay for a month, go out to PJ Old Town for Chinese food and Brickfields for Indian. Kajang used to be the place for Satay, quite a drive out. Go for the curry laksa. KL isn’t known for assam laksa.

Though it is said that's not the best in KL. You don't *have* to go to Penang - but you'd be crazy not to. As for the cold, I know the feeling. I was cold my entire 4 wks in the US. At least you've got your pick of red wines to warm you up. Enjoy! (I'm jealous.) There is indeed a worthy assam laksa vendor in Chinatown, inside the market.

I'll be spending at least a month in Malaysia towards the end of the year. Are there any great laksa assam vendors around Chinatown? or do I have to get to Penang for that? I'm in Australia. Thanks to fog, I flew to Melbourne from KL via a few hours sitting on the tarmac at Adelaide. Having not left tropical Asia for over a year now, I'm now very cold.

I just spent a substantial number of days in Chinatown for an assignment and now know the coordinates of all worthy vendors like the back of my hand. Ah well - you could have done worse than claypot chicken rice! But I bet you missed the most amazing char siu bao this side of, well, anywhere. Ten hours inflight ... where are you headed, or will you keep us in suspense? Tsk tsk Phil, for not getting in touch beforehand!
