Mali's Corner in Taman Bunga Raya

My nephew from Singapore was in KL recently.  His local cousins were responsible for taking him around and keeping him entertained. On one of the nights, I had to take the lot of them out for dinner. This can sometimes be a problem as everyone has his or her likings and dis-likings when it comes to food.  Fortunately, nasi lemak (a local rice dish cooked with coconut milk) is liked by everyone.

One of the nearest places for me is Mali's Corner located in Taman Bunga Raya near the TAR College, and that's where we headed.

Mali's is known for it's nasi lemak which is served hot with freshly fried chicken.  It is also known for it's Char Koay Teow (fried flat rice noodles, another popular local dish).

Due to it's popularity, there's no table service at Mali's.  Patrons have to queue for their orders.  There are usually 3 queues at any one time, for the nasi lemak, for char koay teow and for drinks. 

 
 Patrons need to queue, purchase their food and then proceed to the many tables set up around the stall for their meal.


 
 
 
The service is quite efficient with each one of the staff with specific duties.
 

The char koay teow is cooked to order on a 'per portion' basis.

That's us, enjoying our meal (and posing for photos, of course).
