Brickfields Pisang Goreng stall is one of the many long lasting roadside eateries around Brickfields. This humble stall only sells 4 items – pisang goreng, kuih bakul (sweet rice cake fritters), sesame balls and curry puff. All items are freshly made and new batches are consistently sold out with new customers flocking over to buy. The fresh bananas are peeled battered on the spot, and fried at the roadside stall. What makes the goreng pisang here stand out from the rest is the use of pisang raja which are firm, soft and incredibly sweet.

At the end of the tour you’ll be taken back to the starting point.
