If I have to choose one Chinese restaurant that is strongly NOT recommended, Oversea Restaurant at Subang Parade would be the top of my list. I attended a friend’s wedding here last weekend and the restaurant had two weddings running at the same time without a proper divider or partition between Hall 1 and Hall [...]

Hands down, this popiah stall at Wo Wat restaurant in Malacca sells the best popiah I’ve ever tasted!  This unassuming rundown restaurant is located along Jalan Pantai.

Once you bite into the popiah, the explosion of juicy ‘pang kuang’ and dried shrimps coupled with tasty egg omellete, vinegar grind chilli and fried pork lard will totally [...]

We are spoilt for choices when it comes to dining in Malaysia, but good dim sum selection in the morning is still quite scarce. My favourite is Restaurant Phang Yeh at Happy Garden OUG Old Klang Road. Which is your favourite?

Who would have guessed that out of all places in Malaysia, the best and the most authentic Hong Kong-style cafe can be found right smack at Kota Kinabalu’s new landmark, the 1Borneo Hypermall.

I think all the Perakians are gonna shoot me for saying this but in my personal opinion, the chicken rice at Lou Wong is over-rated.

Amanda warned me that most locals go to Onn Kei on the opposite side of the road, but alas, we were pulled in by the overwhelming crowd at Lou Wong. People [...]

When one is tired of roti telur, mee goreng or maggie mee goreng, the best solution is to head over to Fei Por Restaurant at Jalan Pudu for a sumptuous supper of roast pork, chicken intestines, laksa noodles, Chinese edible frogs, meat balls, prawn porridge and more.
At 2:30 in the morning, this restaurant, which is [...]

It’s a poor man’s food they say, but this statement is only applicable perhaps twenty years ago.
