Customer Reviews

There is no better way to visit Chinatown

We had a big range of excellent traditionel Chinese food - surprising , never eaten before, but so tasty! Siddoz is a very competent and dedicated guide, who knows a lot of the cultures and history of Chinatown. He also was able to tell us about the long tradition of every shop and restaurant we went in. Since I' m not a native English Speaker, I appreciated his clearly spoken Britsh English. All in all: joining this foodTour was my best decision in KL.
Excellent places to eat but badly flawed tour that didn’t work at all

Unfortunately I was the only person booked on the tour and this meant it really didn’t work for me. The guide was good and the places to eat at were excellent. But way too much food in a very short period of time - would be better in a group of 8 and easier to pass on dishes. I ate maybe 30% max of what was on offer and wasting food like that doesn’t sit well with me. Tour should be max 10 tastings (8 would be better) and minimum groups size to take place. If you have an all you can eat gargantuan appetite fine, but I don’t get the set up of this tour at all.
Wonderful food tour we’ll never forget

I can highly recommend this food tour to anyone wanting to better understand Malaysian cuisine and culture. The food was mouth-wateringly delicious and we have so many places we’ll be returning to on our trip. There is a total mix from unique fruits to full dishes, desserts, drinks, restaurants, and street food, and you’ll definitely leave with a full stomach!

The highlight of the tour for us was our wonderful guide Kiran, who may just be the coolest woman we’ve ever met! Such a passionate, inspiring and knowledgable lady who knows the food, landmarks, history and vendors everywhere she goes.

Don’t hesitate to book this tour for an evening you’ll never forget!
