FOOD AND BEVERAGE

As we know Malaysia's reputation as the food paradise is well-known
to the world. The cuisine is an exotic combination of
Malay, Chinese, and Indian dishes. There's a lot of interesting dishes we could give a taste.

1. NASI KANDAR

Nasi Kandar is a popular northern Malaysian dish from Penang, originally introduced by Tamil Muslim traders from India. The meal consists of steamed rice combined with an array of distinct curries, sides dishes, and gravies. The selection of curries consists of various blends of vegetables, seafood or meat.

2. ABC(SHAVED ICE)

One of the few upsides of Malaysia’s sweltering weather (apart from being a legit reason to hole up in bed with the AC on) is that it justifies treats like these. A heaping pile of smooth shaved ice, flavoured with condensed milk and syrup and topped with corn and red beans, ABC will easily take your mind off the heat, so don’t sweat it!

3. NASI LEMAK

A Malaysian classic, we love this meal of coconut milk-infused rice, sweet, spicy sambal, hard-boiled egg, and condiments of roasted peanuts and ikan bilis (anchovies) because it’s cheap and good. Usually eaten with fried chicken, this satisfying meal will only set you back.

4. APPAM BALIK

This one goes by many labels, ban jian kuih, martabak manis, terang bulan, and peanut turnover, to name a few. Available with a thick and chewy shell; or a thin and crispy one, the usual choices of fillings are corn, red bean, coconut shavings, sugar, and crushed peanuts.

5. KETUPAT
More of a side than a main dish, ketupat comes in several varieties. Basically, it involves weaving a pouch made of palm leaves around a handful of rice. The rice expands and compresses, resulting in a neat little bundle you can dip in your curry or rendang.
