TTDI FOOD & NIGHTLIFE
One might say that TTDI is the home to many local favourites. TTDI is known for their many still-standing hawker stalls and “kopitiams” that allow locals to experience and indulge in authentic local delights, such as nasi lemak, prawn mee and Ipoh hor fun. Truly the taste of Malaysia. If you happen to be in the area, we suggest making your way down to Restoran Chong Thoong Kee for some delicious hor fun, or to the famous Aunty Manju’s Banana Leaf Restaurant.
One the other hand, one might also argue that the area is also known for many urban, chic restaurants and cafes. TTDI has a seemingly endless list of eateries for you to enjoy for breakfast, lunch, dinners and even desserts!
