As dreadful as layovers are, they don’t have to ruin your vacation experience. In fact, any adventurous traveller will tell you that one of the greatest ways to cope with a long layover is to make it into a mini-trip! (Like that time we discovered Venice in five hours).

Even if your layover is short, you can still experience local culture. after all, eating your way around the world is one of the best (and cheapest) ways to learn about other cultures and heritages.

That being said, if you have a layover at KLIA and need to pass some time or survive an overnight stop, why not make a trip to Sepang, Selangor to enjoy some of their wonderful food selections? Or if you’re extra early for a flight or just have some time to kill after landing and want to eat nearby, then this list is for you!
