Coliseum Cafe and Bar
98 jln. tuanku abdul rahman. a kl legend, this colonial-style hangout hasn't changed its appearance or staff in over 80 years. service is surly and the tablecloths could use a good wash, but their western food, particularly the "sizzling" steaks on a hot plate from rm35, is still one of the best deals in town. also try a freshly mixed shandy beer and lemonade, rm8 in the adjacent smoky bar.
