After a long day of not eating, the last thing you want to worrying about where to eat—so we've done the work for you

During Ramadan in Malaysia, the spirit of togetherness transforms the holy month into a profound communal experience. As the sun sets each day, families gather around tables laden with traditional delicacies for Iftar, forging connections with friends and family alike.

This is the time that many families take extra care in seeing friends and family, many travelling across cities and countries to share a meal. Popular (and labour-intensive) dishes include the must have rendang, lonteng, ketupat, and many others. Sharing meals foster deep bonds over meaningful conversations, and bonding over the shared experience of faith and gratitude that extends far beyond the dining table; the (extremely) delicious food might just be an extra bonus. 

Find our top picks to on where to break fast this Ramadan with your loved ones.
