I’m a typical Malaysian who loves food.
I daresay that Malaysians live for food! At
any time of day and night, you can find Malaysians eating, in coffee shops,
swanky cafes and restaurants, at road side stalls, etc. In fact, wherever the
food is good, there you’ll find crowds.

Sambal Petai |
|
Ladies' Fingers |
Supper is very common among Malaysians. This could be one
reason why many of us are obese and diabetic.
|
Char Kway Teow (Fried Flat noodles) |
|
Oyster omelette |
|
Sauteed Prawns & Oyster Sauce Vegetables
|
We just can’t help it for our country is a food paradise. We
are a multi-culture nation and we have food to suit every palate. Eating can be
quite an adventure itself.

Chicken Satay & Peanut Sauce |
|
Indian Chicken Curry |
The local cuisine varies from state to state. The food in
the northern states is different from that in the south. There are also
differences in the type of food available in East and West Malaysia.
|
Soft Shell Crab |
In fact, we don’t mind driving a couple of hours to a place
to have lunch or dinner, so long as the food is good!!
|
Small mussels |

Food we had at a fishing village restaurant 2 hours' drive away from Kuala Lumpur |
It used to be cheap to eat out but at present it has become
more expensive as the cost of living has gone up tremendously. Our currency is
very weak so food stuff costs more these days.
Nonetheless, Malaysians will still eat out, enjoying the
camaraderie among friends.
