Is it a good idea to travel to Malaysia for a visa run from Thailand?

Yes it was South Africa and Israel when I was there. Now I think only Israel. Perhaps as I said in my post, its been overlooked as a place to have a good time. I know Malaysia is a strict Muslim country, but only for Malays.

we made our way to batu ferringhi Beach and pretended we were guests and used their pool. At that time I could not comprehend why a pool next to a beach. That is until I took a closer look. An oil slick.

unpopular for Thais. They typically don't like indian food. My missus is no different. Some Malay dishes I know about like roti telur is really Indian isn't it. I use to enjoy a masala dosa every morning for breakfast in Penang.

expensive is it not. I wonder how feasible it is to stay in Johor Bahru and take the bus across for the day.

it's just that roti here are served up as a sweet. My go-to in Thailand is a larp or narmtock pork but not always easy to find in food markets. But we mainly cook at home. A lentil dal would be nice. Never seen lentils in the shops. Bet I won't have any trouble finding them in kl.

it has me intrigued why. For example roti in Thailand is a banana with sweet milk which I would never buy. Just across the border it's served with a curry.

no probably no beer. Not impressed with the Thai beers I have had. Nothing beats my hoppy home brew dark ale.
