Best Ikan Bakar in Kuala Lumpur

Ikan bakar, or grilled fish, is one of those quintessentially Malaysian dishes that is not often talked about.
Today, let's look at three different places in the Klang Valley that's worth a visit if you have a stomach for this classic dish in the afternoon.
Do remember to order a big glass of ice cold drink, because it's going to get hot.

Mat Teh Ikan Bakar
One of our favourite ikan bakar places is this little stall by the name of Mat Teh Ikan Bakar at the Dato' Keramat wet market, right across from the LRT station by the same name.
The stall gets pretty busy over lunchtime, and with somewhat limited seats, it is imperative to get there early.
The most popular fishes here are ikan pari (stingray) and ikan kembung. The stingray runs from RM14-16 per piece, but is big enough for sharing. What I also particularly love about this place is the good selection of ulam (raw vegetables) to go with the grilled fish.
Here's a personal tip – order their mango juice.

Ikan Bakar Warong Fauziah

Within walking distance of iconic KLCC, there's a little hidden warong that many visitors or even tenants of this great building do not realise exists.
Warong Fauziah is tucked behind Lembaga Getah and offers tasty authentic grilled fish alongside a good variety of other dishes to go with steamed rice.
Stringray, catfish, and ikan kembung are available here.

Restaurant Rose 911

Thirdly, for a version of ikan bakar which is slightly different from the ordinary, check out Restaurant Rose 911 at Kampung Pandan.
While the fish is grilled on banana leaves like other versions, sambal is added to the fish prior to grilling, infusing the aroma of chilli right from the get go. This is perfect for those who love it spicy.
Restaurant Rose 911 also serves authentic Negeri Sembilan cuisine with dishes that are laden with plenty of coconut milk and turmeric. – August 4, 2014.
