The best of Malaysian Cuisine
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!
