Hanging out in Kuala Lumpur can be hard – especially during Ramadan. I do sometimes want to visit the bazaars to see what’s on offer, but they can be hot and crowded, and it’s not exactly fun trying to pick out kuih when people are constantly jostling your elbow.
Outside of Ramadan, it’s easier. You drop in, grab a few things, and then settle into a coffee shop or mamak restaurant, somewhere with relatively cheap drinks, relatively comfortable seats, and an opportunity to chat with friends. But these are difficult places to go to if you’re fasting.
