This year’s bazaars have been more than disappointing. My usual favourites of Taman Tun and Bangsar have garnered poor reviews. I haven’t yet been to the ones in Section 14 and Section 17 of Petaling Jaya because I’m scared they’ll let me down,…   More »

If you like Kelantanese and Terengganu food, this is a place that you should visit. Prices are upmarket but reasonable and located quite centrally in Solaris Dutamas. From your first step in, you will be greeted with traditional Malay decor done in a…   More »

You know the defining moment in Ratatouille? When Anton Ego the food critic takes one bite out of Remy's offering, and is immediately transported back to his childhood? An upset little boy, coming home to his maman and being served a large comforting…   More »

Nasi Kukus @ 222 Foodcourt

On a rather rainy day in PJ, we found ourselves on Federal Highway in a jam. A quick detour brought us to the 222 Foodcourt. I used to come here for late night nasi lemak bungkus but rarely try the other stalls because most of them close shop by nightfall.…   More »

For some odd reason, Negeri Sembilan always gets a little left out when we are doing roadtrips. Perhaps because people glaze over it en route to Melaka or it's always been rather relaxed and humble when it comes to their dishes. Do not be fooled, there's…   More »

Ah... nothing warms the cockles of the heart more than the wafting scent of grilling fish. It's barely 12pm and the crowds are already arriving in droves. Taking a cheeky peek on the grill, I spy mackerel, catfish and stingray nestled in banana leaf,…   More »

I must confess sometimes there's nothing I want better for lunch than some rice, a bit of curry on top and fried spicy fish. Maybe a little bit of sayur masak lemak on the side and tofu. Like economy rice, nasi campur shops are real gems especially if…   More »

Popcorn, hot dogs and ice-cream cones share a few things in common. Aside from being absolutely yummy, these are the kind of foods that are known for their 'on-the-go' appeal, prepared fast and eaten straight up. Satay on the other hand, while being extremely…   More »

The best laksam in the world is on a languid road leading up to Northern Terengganu. It faces the South China Sea and lives in a modest open-aired shop. This shop is situated in the village of Rhu Sepuluh in Penarik. Apparently original settlers here…   More »
