Malaysian Food

Jippee! TheSkinnyCook is back in Malaysia :-)

See also my Tom Yum Soup Recipe

Sotong (squid that is), prawn, chicken, chilies, veggies, lime, sugar…. all that in a little bowl as if you are in Thailand, yet I am back in Malaysia :-)

Ok, why I love to be back in Malaysia:

  • to be in my darlings’ arms :-)
  • because it is hot (see previous)
  • to go eat out
  • to go eat out again
  • to go and eat out again…
  • and still my budget is not busted!!!!!

Little comparison: dinner for 2 in a European restaurant: 50 Euros and half of the time not knowing which restaurant is good, you end up with a mediocre meal. Dinner for 2 in a Malaysian restaurant: 10 Euros and yummies (ok, it always helps if you have friends recommending you where the good Malaysian restaurants are).

Why I love to be back in Malaysia? Because in 1 place I can eat Thai, Chinese, Malaysian and Indian food to just name a few!

Malaysia is food paradise and cheaper than neighbour Singapore.

So I will add some of my favorite places soon, in case you want to visit Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and need some Malaysian food tips.
