Budget: free
Parking: at KL Bird Park (free)
Thoughts: Both the Orchid & Hibiscus Park in KL Lake Gardens are not in good conditions. There really used to be beautiful Orchid blooms here and attracting my dragonflies; I got my first macro shot of dragonfly here a long long time ago!
With that and after 90 minutes of sweat, got a few macros I like. Today's macro shooting was done with Olympus OMD EM1 and the M.Zuiko 60mm f2.8!

马来椰酱饭配鱿鱼 Nasi Lemak Sotong @ Nasi Lemak Tanglin at KL Botanical Gardens

16.01.2019 Breakfast
@ Nasi Lemak Tanglin at KL Botanical Gardens (click here to Google Map)
Lake Gardens, 50480 Kuala Lumpur
GPS Location: 3°08'38.5"N 101°41'26.1"E
马来椰酱饭配鱿鱼 Nasi Lemak Sotong rm$7.50 👍👍😋😋 
Budget: MYR$10
Cuisine: Malay
Highlights: Opens early, free parking, live band
Parking: Free at Tanglin food court parking
Thoughts: Tanglin food court is located at KL Lake Gardens, opens at 7am where parking is still available; when I left at around 8am+, even the outside narrow road shoulders were already filled up. 
The food offers the famous "Nasi Lemak Tanglin", also available are Mee Bandung Udang, Nasi Campur, Mee Goreng Tanglin, Ikan Bakar, and a Chinese stall selling Kopi & breakfast bread/egg! 
I am here to have a go with the much talked about "Nasi Lemak Tanglin"! The stall opens around 7:30am, soon after that a queue started, I was the first customer. The lauk available are sotong sambal, fried paru and limpa, ayam goreng, ayam sambal, telur rebus, telur rebus sambal, and telur mata. 
My plate was nasi lemak with sotong and telur rebus sambal, all at rm$7.50, I was satistified but can't find any points to agree on it being the best Nasi Lemak in Klang Valley. But I liked it here, customers and vendors all seemed quite friendly. Everyone shares tables here! There are fruit vendors at the parking lot as well and also a "Malay Live Band" which starts around 8am. With that, I will sure find another time here to try other cuisines here and enjoy a little bit of Old Malay songs while having breakfast. 
Tangling food court's setting is amidts the lush greeneries of Lake Gardens; I'd say a great breakfast place at Lake Gardens early in the morning. Tanglin food courts's opposite is a Government clinic called Tanglin Health Clinic where citizens get medical assistance for as low as rm$1.
