This is one of the items that I never miss out whenever I am in KL (Kuala Lumpur). The restaurant is a little hard to find, but once you find it, you will never want to forget it…

Last weekend, I was devising and perfecting [...]

Plump, juicy, succulent, perfectly cooked, soft, smooth, and absolutely DELICIOUS.
Prepared with the simplest of ingredients–fermented bean paste (taucheo), ginger, scallion, red chilies–this dish is a gem…

For readers who are not familiar with Malaysian street food, Char Kuey Teow is one of the most popular street food in Malaysia. It’s also a much-recommended dish at Malaysian restaurants in [...]
