There’s something about sup kambing that makes my mouth water. The tender chunks of mutton, glide-off-the-bone ribs and rich broth makes sup kambing one of my must have dishes, especially on a rainy day!

It’s impossible not to talk about Anuar’s food stall when it comes to bargain dining in Bangsar. Having operated for more than 30 years, the humble stall rides on a simple, winning formula: curry and rice. A meal, consisting of a heap of rice doused liberally in fish head curry (either mackerel or red snapper) and topped with bean sprouts, only starts from RM3; RM2.50 more if you add a piece of the mamak-style fried chicken. The long queue that snakes around the corner is a common sight, but service is speedy.

Bangsar’s most treasured Indian restaurant is built on the foundation of rich curries and generously spicy condiments. Their banana leaf range is an impressive one – opt for the creamy, dreamy Kerala fish curry but be wary of the chilli-laced mutton masala.
