One of the most annoying things that can happen to a person is feeling unexpectedly hungry during the late hours. Or you just wanted to have something to munch on after a late-night outing with your friend or your loved one. Instead of the usual mamak fare, we have gathered a selected list of 8 supper spots in Klang Valley to satiate your late-night cravings.
1) Saltys The H @ Hartamas
Saltys is home to The Halal Guys-inspired Nasi New York, offering a choice of chicken or lamb served with aromatic basmati rice, veggies and tomatoes. Each portion comes with delicious toppings of white sauce and hot sauce. Next up is their signature Mac & Cheese, where you can have it original or spicy with different proteins available such as grilled lamb/chicken and Korean chicken. Expect cheesilicious macaroni at each bite — perfect for those who love cheese. Saltys offers burgers too, notably the Godzilla Chicken/Korean Chicken Burger. As the name suggests, you have a big single or double chicken patty protruding between the burger buns.
Address: The H @ Hartamas, Jalan Sri Hartamas 22, Desa Sri Hartamas, 50480 Kuala Lumpur | Operating Hours: 12 pm-12 am (Daily)
2) Damascus
This popular Middle Eastern restaurant in Bukit Bintang needs no introduction. Damascus offers the likes of kebab, falafel and Mandi rice but most patrons come for their signature dish. The dish in question? Shawarma. Imagine taking a bite of the toasty shawarma filled with marinated chicken or beef pieces and other ingredients wrapped in Lebanese bread. Alternatively, you can double your shawarma enjoyment by going for the mixed chicken and beef.
Address: 111, Jln Sultan Ismail, Bukit Bintang, 50250 Kuala Lumpur | Operating Hours: 8 am-4 am (Daily)
3) Big Boss HSP
HSP, an acronym for “halal snack pack”, originated from Australia. And you can have it here at Jalan Tun H.S. Lee. Similar to the one available in The Land Down Under, Big Boss HSP’s signature HSP dishes come with a choice of chicken, beef or mixed. Each pack is layered with creamy mozzarella cheese, fries and three sauces of your choice. For the latter, their Holy Trinity (garlic, BBQ & sweet chilli) sauces come highly recommended. They offer chicken, beef or mixed shawarma in either a la carte or combo set with fries and a canned beverage.
