Thinking of spending an entire day exploring Batu Caves and its vicinity? One of the most important components to factor into your plans would be mealtimes – after all, there’s nothing like bonding with family or friends over a good meal during a road trip.
Fortunately, Selangor has no shortage of eateries, especially in the township of Selayang. Here are just five recommendations – out of the hundreds of makan places available – to keep you full and fulfilled during your day out.
1. For breakfast
Looking for something to fuel you for a few good hours? Nasi Lemak Ujang Corner is a popular breakfast spot among locals, serving a variety of dishes such as beef rendang, beef curry, chicken curry and fried chicken.
Given the outlet’s name, its nasi lemak menu, of course, is a standout.
