Great Idea! Lovely collage by the way…Making me hungry again and I just had lunch over and hour ago…
Reply
so obvious again you love shellfish…that’s got the most recipes…;p
My linguine vongole was your drunken clam recipe; followed by my chicken satay (which I made, with slight variation) after I saw your pix. Same with steamed tofu, after seeing your pix, then feel like cooking it ;D
OK, the next on the list looks like egg tarts (bought the crust already.YEY! but the utensils…not yet)
What u cooking next ? Any CNY food?
Reply
Hi, woaw, all these recipes !!! I want to test all ;-) The first picture in the top left corner is the chicken satay right ??? I will test that this week-end I hope…I should read once the recipe and see if I have all what I need!
All your pictures are really nice, great job, congratulation !!!
Have a nice day

This looks like a Food Menu List from a fine dining restaurant.
The recipes are there, the pictures are beautiful. Ah.. Perfect for Rasa Malaysia Fine Dining. When’s it opening?
Or is it a delivery service with online ordering? :-)
I would love to go to a place instead of just a list of name of the dishes, they have recipe cards with pictures just like yours, all in a neat folder. I would be tempted to order everything inside!

what a nice index, very good reference.

Hi, I have a technical question: Your pictures are really nice, which camera do you use ??? I will by a new one but I hesitate…so ;-)

Dear Rasa Malaysia,
I love your website. The pics are so inviting. I want to try many of your recipes. I have already tried some. Turned out quite well. You see, my kitchen is a distance away fm my computer. So can I print your recipes so I can bring them to the kitchen to cook?
Thank you.

Hi,
I am absolutely amazed of all the recipes, however I wonder will you include Braised Pork Trotter (Du Khah, I came across Du Khah has 2 types of flavor? 1 is braised with ginger and another 1 is salted? I could find any recepies for the salted Du Khah) and eggplant recipes in future? Really looking forward to that. Thanks again.
