Sure, Malaysians (especially the KL city slickers) have got their favourite post-clubbing-eat haunts. But what if you’re not into the whole clubbing scene, yet you want to have your cake and eat it too? Yes, we’re talking about eating in every sense! Hence, we’ve decided to draw up a list of the best 24-hour cafes and eateries in Klang Valley for late night owls like yourselves. And just in case you’re wondering, no, we’re not going to be talking about “mamaks” alone because surely there’s more varieties of food out there than just “Maggi mee goreng”, right?
Enjoy:
Donutes
Finally, Donutes has reached our shores! Originally a leading Taiwanese bakery-cum-cafe chain, Donutes offers a variety of coffee, cakes, and other desserts late int the night. That’s right! Don’t let their name fool you because their selection of yummylicious baked goods include delectable bread in which has clearly been influenced by and infused with Japanese flavours. And cute cakes, let’s not forget cute cakes. Also, unlike your typical buy-and-go bakeries, Donutes come furnished with comfy chairs and tables for its patrons to sit back, relax, enjoy their drinks and food, and perhaps chat for a little while. Or chat for much longer, we’ll leave that up to you

Steven’s Corner
Sri Steven’s Corner, otherwise better known as Steven’s Corner, has been around for so long that it comes as no surprise that the owners can afford to open a second branch! Not only does the eatery serve up some of the best local delicacies, meals at Steven’s Corner usually comes with mystifyingly low bills too. They’re most famous for a variety of sellable noms such as the “Burung Puyuh”, Nasi Lemak Special, Tosai Tisu, Chicken Chop, and Roti Bakar, on top of other staples on their menu. Don’t be shocked to find additional new dishes on their menu every once in awhile too! Who would’ve thought that they could come so far from being just a little roadside mamak stall decades ago, eh?

The Banana Leaf Restaurant
This restaurant at Centrepoint has come a long an far way, since the pre-renovation and pre-Centrepoint-new-wing days. Years ago, The Banana Leaf Restaurant was located at what used to be an end lot, closer to Starbucks. But it has since moved, complete with a makeover! Now located at a new corner lot opposite the school on the other side of Centrepoint, the new restaurant is swankier, cleaner, and has a new menu to offer. However, we still aim for our all-time favourites each time we’re there such as their crazily-delicious-it-has-to-be-illegal Roti Bom and Garlic Naan. All that washed down with a Teh O Ais Limau, of course. Because hey, they might’ve upgraded, but the all-time favourites are still just as good!
