Malaysian
cuisine
is
yummy,
exotic
and
exciting.
Its
stimulating
flavors
and
culinary
styles
will
whip
just
about
anyone
into
an
endless
gastronomic
frenzy.
Comprising
of
three
main
groups
namely
Malay,
Chinese
and
Indian,
Malaysian
food
has
become
a
fusion
of
the
three
and
more,
making
it
one
of
the
world's
most
unique
cuisine.
From
the
three
main
ethnic
dishes,
there
are
also
other
cuisines
that
have
evolved
from
the
meeting
of
the
three
cultures.
Notable
ones
include
Nyonya
and
Indian
Muslim
fare.
There
are
also
other
mouth-watering
Continental
and
Mediterranean
cuisine,
but
these
are
mainly
found
in
major
cities
only.
With
such
delicious
blend
of
food
available
in
this
country,
it
is
no
wonder
that
Malaysia
is
called
the
meeting
point
for
both
the
Eastern
and
Western
cultures
- a
true
melting
pot.
For
those
who
are
interested
in
trying
out
all
the
different
dishes,
the
two
best-known
places
to
enjoy,
indeed
celebrate,
Malaysia's
diverse
cuisine
are
in
KL
and
Penang.
While
KL
has
a
‘coffee
shop',
filled
with
hawker
stalls,
in
every
neighborhood,
a
good
bet
is
to
head
downtown
to
old
Chinatown
and
Little
India
to
sample
the
mind-blowing
-
and
cheap
-
range
of
food
Malaysians
are
rightly
proud
of.
In
Penang,
visitors
can
dine
on
local
dishes
from
hawker
stalls
that
appear
at
night
along
the
Esplanade
on
Gurney
Drive,
while
overlooking
the
Indian
Ocean.
Penang
is
well-known
as a
'Hawkers'
Paradise'.
City
dwellers
from
KL
and
even
Singapore
drive
for
hours
on
weekend
getaways
to
feast
and
gorge
themselves
on
Penang's
awesome
hawker
food! |
