GrabFood Is Now Delivering These Top 13 Local Restaurants To Your Doorstep

This Spotlight is sponsored by GrabFood.

The thing about eating out in Malaysia is that if you want to makan at popular local restaurants, you’ll probably have to wait. That’s why despite craving for nasi kandar, you may think twice before leaving your house to brave the crowds.

Earlier in August 2018, GrabFood ran The People's Pick campaign, giving Malaysians the opportunity to vote for their favourite restaurants to be featured on the app. After gathering votes from over 5,000 users, GrabFood has brought on-board 13 local restaurants into the app, with many more to come.
