From lip-smacking local dishes to discounts on wine, there's something here for everyone

It’s not easy to be a foodie in these troubled times. The recent MCO has made it a little harder to order from one’s favourite restaurants. Fortunately, there are still a number of places one can get a great meal.

One of these is undoubtedly the Bangkung Row Kaki Lima Food Hall & Drive Thru in Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur. The brainchild of the Maxim Group, which comprises Cava Spanish Wine Bar, Opus Bistro, Lucky Bo and Leonardo’s Dining Room & Wine Loft, it offers a fine selection of high quality meals and produce. The Drive-Thru option means you can pick up your food with minimal contact, and maintain good social distancing.

Here are five reasons why you should pop by the Bangkung Row Kaki Lima Food Hall & Drive Thru. Remember to go on an empty stomach.

1. Delicious dishes to savour

There’s plenty to sate all cravings. Lovers of Malaysian flavours can get nasi lemak, beef char kway teow and Sarawak laksa. A weekly variety of pasta is available for an Italian meal.

And if you’re seeking something heartier, make a beeline for the Wagyu tomahawk, served from the Josper Grill. Served with roasted potato and sauteed vegetables, this prime cut of steak will not disappoint.
