According to a new survey done by My Late Deals, we’re not the only ones to appreciate our street food.
The travel site recently unveiled its Street Food City Index which features 30 cities from across the world and determines where you can find the world’s most delectable street food treats.
Malaysia doesn’t only have one city on the list, we have two! And that’s Penang and KL!

The 30 cities were ranked based on a number of factors including the number of street food vendors to be found, the price of dishes, sanitation, and the number of street food experiences and activities available.
Even in Malaysia, Penang is very well-known for its 24-hour, delicious street food.
In this instance, Penang came in at number 17 on the World’s Best Street Food list!
