You'll find good hawker stalls on the upper floor of the General Market, Jalan Tun Fuad Stephens, and at the night market, behind the Filipino Market, Jalan Tun Fuad Stephens. For nightime drinking , check out Crash, below New Sabah Inn, Jalan Pantai, a lively enough place which has a midweek bikini parade, and Rocky Fun Pub & CafAŠ, Lot 52, Jalan Gaya (until 2am), a good-time bar favoured by expats and Yaaha Cowboy Lounge, Block C, Asia City Complex, which, despite the hick name, is a superb bar with a food court alongside. Pick of the bunch, however, must be the no-frills Chinese and Filipino drinking hole, Fun Sen, a few doors down from the Diamond Inn. Guinness Stout is the staple here for a friendly, boozy, let-it-all-hang-out clientele.

Restoran Bilal , Block B, Segama Complex. A classic North Indian Muslim eating house, with a buffet-style range of tasty and inexpensive curries. Daily 6am-9pm.
