For many Muslims in Ramadan, the end of Tarawih prayers often marks the start of a well-earned wind-down. Traditionally, mamak stalls have been the go-to option, offering teh tarik and late-night comfort food. But sometimes, you might crave something different – whether it’s a quiet café, a cosy dessert spot, or a casual restaurant where you can unwind with friends.
Fortunately, Malaysia’s vibrant food scene has plenty of alternatives that cater to night owls looking for halal-friendly options beyond the usual mamak fare. We’ve rounded up some of the best late-night eateries where you can enjoy good food with great company.
Big Boss HSP
Craving a hearty late-night bite? Big Boss HSP is Malaysia’s first Halal Snack Pack (HSP) spot, serving up loaded fries inspired by Australia’s late-night food scene. Founded by three Malaysians who fell in love with HSP while studying down under, the brand grew from a home kitchen venture in 2022 to multiple branches today. With crispy fries, seasoned meat, melted cheese, and signature sauces, Big Boss HSP offers a satisfying alternative to the usual mamak fare.
