The Vibe & What to Expect

As the sun sets, Jalan Alor transforms into a bustling, chaotic, open-air food paradise. The entire street is lined with hawker stalls and seafood restaurants, with plastic tables spilling onto the road. The air is thick with the sizzle of woks and the aroma of grilling meats.

Must-Try Dishes

  • Satay: Skewers of grilled meat served with a rich peanut sauce.
  • Grilled Chicken Wings: A local favorite, marinated and grilled to perfection.
  • Barbecued Seafood: Pick fresh fish or prawns and have them grilled on the spot.
  • Cendol: A sweet dessert made with shaved ice, coconut milk, palm sugar, and green rice flour jelly.

⚙️ How It Works

  • Ordering: Find a table at one of the many restaurants, then you can order from their menu as well as from some of the independent stalls along the street.
  • Payment: While some larger restaurants may take cards, cash is highly recommended.
