Hard Wood Kafe

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 »

Serai Satay Bar

Malay

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 »

Kedai Mak Ngah

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 »

D’Cengkih

D'Cengkih opens early (yay!) which means you can have soto for breakfast. Most places that serve this dish usually only have it available for lunch or dinner. And the soto here is GOOD. Great soup and they serve it with bergedil (like they should) with…   More »

O'Mulia Satay is located at a busy intersection between Jalan Tun Razak and Jalan Semarak. If you know where this place is, you'll know that this location is an almost suicidal location to be in. The elevated highway is nearly just on top of you with…   More »

Nasi Dagang Chendering

Going through my Terengganu pictures the other day, I came across some nasi dagang snapshots. Mmm... lovely white glutinous rice with a splash of light curry usually made with tongkol (a local tuna) and some acar. I always preferred the Terengganu kind…   More »

Satay Yunus

“Oh please… satay Malaysia? Cannot beat Indonesia,” My Indonesian friends wave their hands disdainfully. What is it about Indonesians and their satay? They are insanely proud of it. According to one of them, they grill their satays with sweet soy…   More »

“The sambal belacan here, boleh ternaik…” my friend licked her chops as we sat in A. Hassan. “I’m already salivating thinking about it”, she grins pleased with the fact she managed to drag me all the way to Taipan. What’s famous here is…   More »
