1. Fresh Off The Boat Seafood
Originally a port city during the early times, it is not a surprise that seafood is one of the top picks as seafood is in abundance here. Being located not far from the seaside, one can find mean plates of assorted cooked salt water fishes, clams and oysters, crabs and other shellfishes. Expect high quality of freshness as you can even choose and pick your very own seafood while they are still alive and they will cook them on the spot.
Request for the house specialty and you are on your way to a discovery of bursting flavours. Some of the famous local seafood eateries are such as Hing Ket Grill House located right next to Taman Sri Menegon, Tian Lee Restaurant in Port Klang , Kali Little Restaurants in Pandamaran, and Chen Chenho Pulau Ketam Seafood Restaurant in Bandar Bukit Tinggi 2.
2. Bak Kut Teh and Chinese Cuisines (Non-Halal)
Bak Kut Teh, a herbal soup served with pork ribs and tenderloins is a very popular breakfast choice or day time meal among locals here, so it only makes sense that they have some of the best here. Other than that, if halal food is of concerned, they are plenty of other Chinese style menus that are available here such as delicious Chee Cheong Fun, Yong Tau Fu and various noodles for you to choose from. To fit your oriental craving, you can head to Seng Huat Bak Kut Teh Restaurant in Kawasan 1, Klang Lek Bak Kut Teh near Taman Melawis, Fatty Mee Hoon Kuih in Taman Berkeley, and BT Dim Sum House in Bandar Bukit Tinggi.

One can have it cooked with chicken, mutton, and beef coupled with extra curry on the side to add that extra ‘umph’.

Well, good news! Klang South can offer this to you with their a wide array of traditional coffee house or locally known as “kopitiam” located here.

Conclusion
Seeing how Klang South might be the new found treasure spot for foodies, it is not a foreign idea to find many who originally intend to go there only for visits, coming back and staying for longer each time. Another reason Klang is the ‘it’ place to go is due to its easy access through major highways such as the North Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE), Shah Alam Expressway (KESAS), and South Klang Valley Expressway (SKVE). Hence, this might be a great chance for one to begin investing in property in Klang South and it takes keen eyes to recognise its potential.
