i am looking for some budget-friendly meal in the vicinity. started working for a part time job today but the cost of food is eating into my earnings. more than a quarter of my wage is being swallowed up by parking and food already.

does anyone have recommendations for reasonably priced dining spots either inside or outside the mall?

Outside got shop lot that sells mixed vege rice

Considered packing your own meals?

Aurora Bukit Jalil or The Earth @ Bukit Jalil.

Both connected to PBJ.

better work in food shop la, work in sales dont stay in comfort zone if you're young

don't have staff food court ? impossible oh....ask management where that place situated....

Maybe state your meal preferences? Don't want nanti ppl suggest u non-halal food but you want halal food.

try go nearby flat there. maybe got cheaper food there.

McD mix&match , nasilemak + apple pie / bubur + apple pie shd be able to fill ur stomach less then RM7 or latest McD promo Nasilemak + 1 fried chicken + 1 drink = RM11

puncak jalil also not too far~
another method is tapau before enter work lo..

where the pavilion guy?

Go to sg wang 4th floor carpark area got hawker.
But not cheap also 10+ for a zap fan that can satisfy.
Tbh better just balik kampung and gtfo from kl if earnings after expenses less than eat at home in kampung. I’m thinking of doing so…take one quarter pay cut

Ask your colleagues la

My group had a discussion to open staff-food joint last year.

Is the retail take up rate still low?

Hawker Chan Michelin Star jiken rice.

I see many replies konfius PV and PVBJ...

high class mall

actually, there are restaurant across the road on the pedestrian bridge.
I dine there few times....
Probably norm food stall price...RM10-RM12 per meal ge

nasi ayam penyet there quite nice. near the blue flat

don't be picky

Think he looking for below rm10, only can find at Kuchai. Need to drive out or tapau from there before work.

Sri petaling or puchong area is nearer.

Go eat at TPM food court

Try KFC….

Between jalil damai apartment and sri rakyat flat got alot of eateries for b40. Only 500metres from pavilion

Since only part time, pack a loaf of bread and bottle of peanut butter. Anytime, anywhere..

cheap food.

Pavilion Bukit Jalil. Why the hell he need to travel to Bukit Bintang to eat chap fan? Is like telling ppl work at One U to go makan at Sunway pyramid

1818 mixed rice.
Bumi, The Earth No.48G, Jalan Jalil 1, Lebuhraya Bukit Jalil, Bukit Jalil, 57000 Kuala Lumpur

Just wait there, see any residual grab and eat, free

Opposite shop lot across the bukit jalil highway have alot of kopitiam, mamak restaurant

MacDonald quiet budget friendly nowadays. Menu rahmah+ a snack cost less than 10 and have food + drink

cross to Sri Rakyat flat outside of pavi there's many vendor selling ayam penyet or nasi putih cheap2

eat in pavi minimum 30/meal with plain water

If you are entitled to get RM50/month public transport, that would save you a lot of money. Drive to LRT/MRT Park N Ride RM4.30/day.

wait quarter of your wage used for parking where your car not moving at all?

why not take public transport?
wey i commute from sepang to Bukit jalil and walk 30 minutes to pavi area from awan besar lrt on daily basis

u earn 2 things
worry free journey
free exercise
zaman now kena spend quarter of salary for parking ke?

If poor, take the train, have breakfast at home, skip lunch.

cook at home and tapau to work
or just eat roti gardenia at work, and have big dinner at home

Got food truck selling nasi campur in front of LTAT. Or drive to Tmn Puncak Jalil shoplot area (PUJ3)

got MrDIY inside. high class?

2 star?

shawarma / kebab
Al Halabi Gourmet Restaurant


support our brothers / sisters in Syria

Pack your own meal.
Eat bread from any grocery/sundry store.
Ride a bike or take lrt to work.

Wanna be posh but then not enough budget. Jangan la

Bungkus kawkaw but kicimiao portion

1. Walk outside flat gerai2 as per recommended by other ktards
2. Or further abit to murni and mamak row of shops

Food courts in GF is your good friend. Or you can get Odens at FM.

maybe can look into it. but i find it kinda hard cos the job is 9am to 10pm.

Thanks for all the suggestions!

In PBJ? I would say 75-80%. The majority of non-taken are on the 4th and 5th floors, Pink Zone side.

if rajin can go deep sikit ada mamak and murni

The nearest one is actually located at a Petronas station near Bandar Kinrara there. But it's on the inside road, and would take about 10 mins to arrive for Pavillion.

Bang, no need - it takes about 15 mins walk alone to get there - at fast pace.

Might as well go to Aurora there. Got one Claypot restaurant as well as the 24-hour China food restaurant.

He thought its pavilion KL kut

outside pavilion got many malay stalls, near damai jalil apartment

haha i just ikut preference i
depan pavi tu pun ada cross the jalan.
nasi kandar bendi but beratur la
tak sedap pun.

How far to walk

Go Level 3 or 4, Orange Zone. There is a overhead bridge to the Earth. Walk time should be 5-10 mins.

U r correct!

Google Earth has a handy-dandy ruler feature. Try it out!

you work part time in which shop?

this is the right answer, or better yet, might as well do the keto diet and get fit. or the intermittent fasting.

I think theres a staff canteen on one of the basement parking floor

Guess what? I saw the princess today! 😍

It's an event job

Tomorrow lunch time I come look for you
Belanja you nice lunch

Malu la, what you doing here today?

now only you reply
i balik my office already

deliver some supplies to a shop there.

A lot never read properly…the problem these days with ppl.

Kek

its sooooo far. pbj is so big walking one end to another already take like 15 minutes. Walking back and forth half my break time gone already. And i eat kinda slow so its quite a challenge for me.

By the way, i have found a decent shop with affordable meals in the mall. Only for weekdays though.

7-E got oven food.

Yes, that would be the best option. But i just moved in to a new place without a fridge. Maybe i should get a second hand fridge so i can do meal prep during off day.

Working 12 hours a day excluding transit time is really tough. Leave me little time to do other things. Feel so tired after work.

Pavilion not for celerymen eat daily one

Breakfast here, lunch there, coffee summore, easily 50-100rm a day lulz

you are rich, that's like my monthly celery already.
