You'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to food. The 3 main cuisines here are Malay, Indian and Chinese. Even though over the years they've heavily borrowed different spices and flavors from each other, they still retain many of their unique identities.
Some of the favorites are :
Malay - satay (barbecued meat on skewers), nasi padang(rice served with a variety of side-dishes), mee siam (spicy noodles) and nasi lemak (rice cooked in coconut milk, served with fish). Sambal, a fiery chilli-paste often accompanies a meal.
Chinese - yaung tau foo (a dish of vegetables, seafood and meat-stuffed items), chicken rice (a fragrant dish of rich served with slivers of tender chicken) and laksa (noodles in a curry-like soup).
Indian - nasi beriyani (yellow rice cooked with spices and served with chicken or mutton) and paratha (Indian pancake eaten with curry). Dosas, Idlis and Wadas are popular South Indian vegetarian snacks.
Culinary Etiquette 
When eating at hawker stalls, be careful not to mix cutlery from a Muslim stall with cutlery from other stalls.Muslims do not consume alcohol, so it is impolite to drink alcoholic beverages when dining with Muslims.When eating with chopsticks, never leave them sticking vertically from a dish as it is considered to be bad luck.
It is considered polite to invite older people and guests to dig in first.Vegetarians ...
Fear not! Many Indians and Chinese follow vegetarianism for health or religious reasons. Due to this, you'll find plentiful vegetarian restaurants for all types of cuisines. Most restaurants provide a wide array of veggie dishes.....and Quench your Thirst
Alcohol is quite expensive in Malaysia, partly because it's prohibited for Muslims and the import duties tend to be high. A glass of beer in Bangsar can be a pricey RM15 and a good scotch can set you back RM20. If you prefer, most bars will let you purchase a bottle which will be reserved for you and used each time you visit.
Some of the more expensive bars and nightclubs are located in and around the Golden Triangle, near the Petronas Towers. Here you can watch the glitterati of KL, men and women bedecked in the latest fashions. Most of the bars provide live entertainment in the form of bands, which usually perform favorite rock and new pop songs.
For a slightly more sedate pace, head towards Bangsar Baru . This is a pleasant area with streets lined with bars and restaurants. Most of the bars offer open air seating, and you can people watch while sipping your brew of choice.
