Roadside Sizzle – Claypot Chicken Rice Worth the Wait at Kedai Kopi Pudu Satu Enam Lapan

#summervacay #claypotchickenrice #pudueats #kedaikopi168 #klfoodie #charcoalclaypot #streetfoodkl #localgem #hawkerheaven #eveningeats #malaysianfoodtrail I went to Kedai Kopi Pudu Satu Enam Lapan in the evening, specifically for the famous claypot chicken rice—and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The stall is set up along the roadside, and the aroma of rice cooking over charcoal greets you before you even sit down. The wait can be a little long during peak hours, but trust me, it’s worth every minute. The rice came with a deliciously crispy bottom layer, tender chicken, bits of salted fish, and a rich soy-based sauce that gets mixed in at your table. The smoky aroma from the charcoal made the whole experience feel rustic and authentic. Sitting on the roadside, with locals chatting over hot claypots and kopi, made it one of those classic KL food moments that’s hard to beat. Travel Tips & How to Get There: • Best time to visit: • Evening from 6 PM onwards; come slightly earlier to avoid long waits. • How to get there: • Located in Pudu, Kuala Lumpur. Easy to reach by Grab or car. • Limited parking nearby—best to park a bit further and walk. • Tips: • Order the claypot chicken rice with added salted fish for extra flavour. • Be prepared for a bit of a wait during peak dinner hours. • Seating is roadside-style—simple, no-frills, and full of charm.
