I read a review written by cinimod in 2000 at Eccentric
Mystical Pizza and was all excited to try out this restaurant - then coincidentally an ex-colleague had a farewell dinner at this place. I ...
Pros: Cheap, ethnic diversity, great shopping and hotels, architecture. Cons: Not many sights, alcohol is spendy, traffic, westernization, sprawl.
Phew. I'm going to try and hit the 1000 reviews mark with this one. This review is based upon my experience in KL in 1/03. I have a friend that is Chinese Malaysian who met me in KL and showed me around. Again, my reviews are not anecdotal, but more...
Pros: Great Shopping, Fantastic Food Wonderful mix of diverse cultures Cons: Nightlife is punctuated by numerous "professionals"
Warning!!! This Epinion contains information that is adult in nature and may be found offensive by some An surprise call from the boss led to a unexpected trip to Malaysia. We landed in Kuala Lumpur the first night with the expectation of ...
Pros: A taste of Asia Cons: The town is a bit "small"
Once again it turns out that it is great having friends around the world. The trip to Singapore and Kuala Lumpur was triggered by an invitation to a wedding in Kuala Lumpur (called KL from now on). We didn’t get that much time to plan the trip...
Kuala Lumpur is the capital of Malaysia. From its centralised position which spans 243.6 sq. kilometres, this ultra-modern nerve centre of Malaysia expands outwards to embrace the world.
Pros: You get a new perspective Cons: Not everyone's cup of tea
Review Topic: Overview
When I don’t get to travel as much as I’d like, I tend to start doing strange things. Since my need to travel is practically insatiable, this happens often. My role of playing the accidental tourist...
Pros: Beaches, good climate, friendly people, five star hotels, inexpensive Cons: Some cultural differences take getting used to
I went to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to visit a friend of mine and explore the employment situation there. I had no idea what to expect after having seen so much in the news about the terrible riots last year in Indonesia, but Malaysia is not affected by...
We flew into Kuala Lumpur on a comfortable Malaysia Airlines 747. Upon leaving the airport we were immediately impressed by the beautiful landscaping and neatly manicured roadways of this cosmopolitan city of more than one million people. Modern...
Pros: Divine food, you feel like you're part of the family Cons: Might take a few visits before you're "accepted" by the owner

Checkers Restaurant
Checkers is perhaps the best kept secret there is – an obscure little restaurant, tucked away on an obscure side street in an obscure part of an obscure town that I...
Pros: KL has some hidden wonders - an extra day won't be a waste of time Cons: You've got to leave to catch your flight!
<This is my personal insider guide to Kuala Lumpur (KL)>
OK, you’ve been to Chinatown and the Selangor Pewter Factory, you’ve been to Batu Caves and seen the view from the KL Tower, you’ve been to the Railway Station and the Petronas...
Pros: Beautiful, clean, diverse, great food, generally cheap. Cons: The heat and humidity, poor nightlife.
So it had to be: my first visit ever to Asia would start in KL. Most people first "touch down" in Asia through Bangkok or Hong Kong. On my incessant quest to being original, I decided to start with KL. One could argue that there are more exotic...
Pros: highly colorful and traditional, cheap Cons: not exactly pristine
Review Topic: Practical Information
Kuala Lumpur is a fine example of what may result from mixing Asian concepts of society and culture with western influence and urban development themes. It is not as crowded, noisy, hectic or...
Pros: Unique culture and sights Cons: Can be hot and humid
Review Topic: Sights & Attractions
I had lived in Kuala Lumpur for three years with my parents (but that is two years back now) and of course had done a lot of sightseeing especially in the first few months.
The sights...
