What local specialties should you try in Malaysia?
You absolutely must try Nasi Lemak (coconut rice with sambal, anchovies, peanuts and cucumber), Char Kway Teow (stir-fried noodles), and Satay (grilled meat skewers). Laksa (spicy noodle soup) varies regionally and is another must-try. Don't forget to sample local fruits like durian (if you dare!).

Suria KLCC in Kuala Lumpur is a high-end mall with international brands. Bukit Bintang in Kuala Lumpur offers a wide range of shops, from street markets to department stores. Georgetown in Penang is known for its street art and unique boutiques.
