The best Satay in Kuala Lumpur at Jalan Peel
Print This Post
My favourite satay (or sate) to be found in Kuala Lumpur is at Jalan Peel or Peel Road. This is in the area bordering Cheras and Pudu and is located near the Carrefour Cheras and Queen’s Park. For me, this stall sells the best satay in Kuala Lumpur and the crowds attest to that!
Just look at those succulent huge skewers of beef and chicken satay! The portions are very generous indeed and well marinated. The satay sticks are then grilled or barbequeued over an open flame and when served, they are piping hot, and just cooked. The stall in question is Dzul Sate Gerai 41 Jalan Peel.
Each stick of satay is RM0.60 which I don’t find expensive as one skewer is very substantial. I like that each skewer doesn’t include a piece of fat as you normally find in satay stalls. The beef and chicken pieces are still sweet and succulent without the fat included.
For those who like Kajang style satay, then this might be similar. The size if not the taste. I particularly like the satay at Dzul Sate because of the dipping sauce. The peanut dipping sauce is spicy and not overly sweet. I like my peanut sauce spicy and not like some modified form of peanut butter.
Dzul Sate is very popular and comes out only in the evenings. The crowds build up at about 7-8pm when it is at its peak.
Their grills are busily kept going all the time as they grill the sticks of satay over charcoal, for the neverending customers who eat in and take away. This is the traditional method of grilling satay which adds the smokey flavour to the meat.
Just look at the grills go!
Dzul Sate is located under a large tree on Peel Road, on the same side as the Carrefour store. If you come from KL, it is just further down from the Convent School at Peel Road. You’d have to make a U-turn at the Queen’s Park traffic lights to get to this stall, and parking is horrible. Most people just park by the side of the road (if they can find a space). Else, park inside the Carrefour store and walk out. You can’t miss this stall.
There is another famous satay stall opposite, at the coffee shop across the road. I’m told that they both originated from the same stall, but had split. I’ve tried both, and I prefer Dzul Sate simply because the satay kuah or satau sauce wins me over. However, the other satay stall offers more variety. Dzul Sate only serves chicken or beef. I wasn’t too impressed with the ketupat, but that’s not what I’m here for.
If you are looking for good, reasonably priced, generous helpings of satay, try Dzul Sate at Peel Road (Jalan Peel) in Cheras. You won’t regret it at all!!

Those really looks good. But I think Malaysian peanut sauce is very sweet. I like my sauce to be a bit spicier .. What do you think?
Wow RM 0.60 is not expensive, and it looks so meaty n juicy :)~ Satay is one of my fave hawker delights!
