Fabulous!

We did the ten tasting out with Manjeet and what a way to start our holiday! Manjeet is incredibly knowledgeable not just about the food but the history and stories behind each dish too. As we made our way through the streets of KL Manjeet explained the history around us. From the very start, she ascertained what we liked and then tailored tastings to suit us, with a few surprises on the way. She even very kindly bought us a few treats to take away and have later. Her English is perfect too, probably better than some of my English friends! We would highly recommend Manjeet, for her knowledge, humour, wit and she is just lovely!

Perfect for food & culture lovers

Manjeet is a native Malaysian who knows and loves much about Malaysia's rich and diverse food culture. She also gave us lots of tips about variations of dishes and where to find the best or most traditional versions. We walked around multiple neighborhoods, both modern malls and old Chinatown. She was happy to answer our questions. We were very happy with the tour and strongly recommend Manjeet.
