The 10 Best Street Food Stalls In Petaling Jaya Malaysia

Petaling Jaya, one of the oldest and most developed cities in the Klang Valley, is home to a handful of good eateries. Malaysians love their street food, which they gladly devour for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and sometimes, even supper. Here are 10 street food stalls to eat your way through PJ.

PJ Old Town

1. Weng Kee ABC & Cendol

Food Stall, Dessert

Escape from the hot weather with a bowl of shaved ice in this old neighbourhood of Petaling Jaya. Many shops in the area have been operating for decades and Weng Kee ABC & Cendol has been a neighbourhood gem. Located at PJ Old Town Market Food Court, their Air Batu Campur (ABC, mixed ice) is as authentic as it comes. Paired with red beans, corn and topped with peanuts, anything more than that would be over the top. The secret to their ABC lies in the gula Melaka syrup drizzled all over the shaved ice, and that is what has been keeping loyal customers coming back all these years.

PJ State

2. Kam Heong Braised Duck Rice

Food Stall, Chinese

During the day, this stall is the staple chicken rice stall that you see at every hawker centre. At night, it transforms into a popular braised duck stall. The duck, cooked beautifully, is tender and flavourful. Paired with a plate of aromatic rice, this will be a meal you won’t be able to forget. For a touch of fiery kick, try it with the sambal and chilli.

SS2

4. Gerai Burger dan Nasi Lemak Utara

Food Stall, Malaysian

Juicy, greasy, and flavourful – that is a sign of a good Ramly burger. Get your hands on one of them at SS2’s Mamak Square. The locals flock to this stall for their chicken burger. The best thing with Ramly burger is the customisation – be it adding an egg or an extra slice of cheese.

5. Ah Wa Hokkien Mee

Food Stall, Chinese

Another neighbourhood favourite in Petaling Jaya is the hokkien mee at Ah Wa. Walking into the restaurant, almost every table has a plate of their signature charcoal fried hokkien mee. The noodles, coated with aromatic thick black sauce, is served with pork slices and crispy lard that will keep you wanting for more.

6. Fried Chicken Wings at Restoran Ah Wa

Food Stall, Chinese

If the noodles at Ah Wa is not enough, order a plate of chicken wings that are grilled to perfection from the stall next to it. Served while it’s still piping hot, the wings are crunchy at first bite and bursting with flavour. Before long, you’d be devouring the whole plate in a cluck.

7. Mike’s Burger Grill Celup

Food Stall, American, Fusion

Trust the place when it has a sign that says “Voted Best Burger in Town by Someone Who Likes Burgers”. Mike’s unique creations like Kungpao Gourmet Burger, Kangkung Sambal Belacan, and Bbq Gourmet Triple Chicken Burger help keeps his customers coming back for more.

SS17

8. Hong Kee Dessert

Food Stall, Dessert

Find a variety of Chinese tong sui (desserts) to your liking at SS17’s Wai Sek Kai (food street). The stall is surrounded by various metal pots where you will find most locals’ favourite desserts. The place is self-service and you can choose from beans and nuts to sweet potato soup.

9. Rojak & Cendol Mustaffa

Food Truck, Dessert

Beat the heat with a bowl of cendol. Enjoy the sweet relief in the form of shaved ice, cendol, and grass jelly served from a truck by the roadside. For something savory, they also have rojak – slices of eggs, tofu, crackers, and cucumber – topped with a generous amount of nutty and spicy sauce.

10. Wong Kee

Food Stall, Chinese

When there’s a long line, you’d know the food is good. People have been coming to Hong Seng Restaurant for decades just to have a bite of Wong Kee’s thickly cut siew yoke. It’s an explosion of flavour and texture with its crispy skin, tender meat, and well-paired sauces. The crowd tends to grow fast when the stall opens at 12.30pm, so be sure to come early so you wouldn’t miss a bite of this mouthwatering dish.
