A long-standing community-favourite is this market-restaurant tucked away in Happy Mansion. Dive straight for the Pork Leg Rice (RM12) that sees soft and tender slices of pork leg served with a runny egg and brown rice. Also recommended is the signature Paku Salad (RM15), tossed with dried chillis, dried prawns and a spicy coconut-milk dressing which Burppler Sunita S says "will blow your mind". Alternatively, the no-fail Pad Thai (RM10) atop a layer of omelette is also good. Grab an order of Moo Ping (pork skewers, RM10) to share, alongside the sweet Mango Sticky Rice (RM10), and you're in for a delicious meal.

Formerly known as Lai Thai Market, this hole-in-the-wall restaurant is easily one of KL's best places for Thai street eats. The experience here is holistic; taste authentic Thai dishes, then proceed to the mini mart section within to buy fresh Thai-sourced condiments. Bring your mum or a friend who loves to cook, for good food and a little shopping fun. Pork is Frame Thai's forte. Order the Moo Ping (RM10 for three sticks) for juicy skewered, seasoned pork shoulders. According to Burppler Nicholas, the porky delicacy is even better with extra dipping sauce. For mains, the Pork Leg With Rice (RM10) pleases with tender braised pork leg doused in flavoursome gravy. It's either that or a wok hei-packed Basil Pork Rice (RM8) of fragrant minced meat and a crispy fried egg to top. The shop is small with limited seats, so save the daytime-only spot for an early brunch or late lunch!
Avg price per person: RM15

Moo ping is a type of Thai skewered meat, quite similar to satay. The pork shoulder is seanoned and fermented for 3 days before it is read for cooking. The meat is seasoned in oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, palm sugar, garlic, cilantro root, and peppercorns, and grilled over charcoal.

The pork skewers were cooked on a low flame ensuring that the meat is succulently cooked. The sweetness from the meat coupled with the char on the fat made each bite juicy, a great pairing with the springy texture of the pork shoulder. Understated and traditional. Easily one of the best moo ping around town.

Proptip: Ask for extra dipping sauce, makes quite the difference.
