Tips & Tricks from Real Parents
Keep kids in bright shirts and pick a meeting point (the giant clock tower) in case anyone wanders.
Arrive at 6 PM sharp. By 7:30 PM it is shoulder-to-shoulder and strollers are a nightmare.
Let kids try one new snack per stall - cendol, satay celup, durian crepes, coconut shakes.
Baby carriers work better than strollers after 7 PM when aisles get tight.
Park at Dataran Pahlawan Megamall (RM3 flat rate) and walk 5 minutes.

A Real Parent's Story
Where my picky eater finally tried everything
“My 7-year-old who only eats chicken nuggets devoured chicken rice balls, cendol, and durian puff.”
Read full story
Our eldest has the palate of a toddler. At Jonker Walk the street food is everywhere and smells amazing. He saw other kids eating from skewers and wanted in. Ended up trying everything - more than the previous week combined.
