Many people, especially visitors from Singapore, will go to KSL City for shopping, movies and dining, and will usually stay inside the mall. Those who are willing to wander out of the mall will be rewarded with many cheap and good local food in Taman Century (世纪花园).
For those who are willing to venture a little further, about 600 metres more, there is another food haven in Taman Sri Tebrau. The name “Taman Sri Tebrau” may not be familiar to most people but just mention “大马花园” (Dai Mah Garden), “next to Pelangi / Sentosa” and it will probably ring a bell somewhere.
