Not sure if this has changed but a few years back the taxi's still had an airport surcharge of RM25 (?) for the short ride, and Grab is RM45 ... per way !

If I had more than 2 hours and wanted a walk and bite, KLIA2 would be a more convenient bet and a shorter train ride away. The Mamak at Bus Level in KLIA2 is 24h and pretty good.
Ya, I would recommend the Mamak in KLIA2, or else you can just grab the instant noodle from the small shop nearby ;p

I think the meal in Lounge is still much better than anything that is offered in KLIA. unless you take car/grab/teksi down to Downtown KLIA for meals. Heck, even the mamak shop in KLIA terminal is crappy, crap service and expensive (which is expected anyway)
For KLIA terminal, I usually just go Old Town when without lounge access, since the quality is about the same as outside. More important, the price still ok unlike Papa Johns in the terminal, which is ridiculous
