Hi….I stumbled across your blog while searching for Guizhou in China!! I am so glad that you are enjoying Malaysia, especially their food. I am a Malaysian Chinese from Ipoh, Malaysia. It is about 2 hours plus from Kuala Lumpur. You definitely must come to Ipoh for more variety of food. Ipoh is famous for food and white coffee!! If you are visiting Ipoh, Malaysia, please drop me a message. I would like to introduce the famous Ipoh food to you!! =)

@Mizan: I can understand being homesick for Malaysian food while in Texas. Glad to hear that your cooking of laksa nyonya worked out so well!

Very rightly comments about the Malaysians. I really enjoy your travel stories from around the world. I am malaychinese Malaysian, I just opened my eyes and now I am looking at all these familiar goodies. You made me hungry and I am currently in Texas, far away from home. Googled and found a recipe for laksa nyonya that you ate in melaka from cook4youme blogspot. Yummy, very close indeed to the real thing.

@Nadia: Thanks for coming over from Twitter to check out our site and comment! We’ve been back to Malaysia a couple of times since writing this and have found even more delicious dishes. The influences from Malay, Chinese and Indian cuisines was what make eating in Malaysia such a treat.

Thank you for pointing out the typo – I’ve fixed it! We’ll let you know when we return to Malaysia – we use KL as one of our Asia hubs. Thanks for the offer!

Found your website through twitter and I wondered if you’ve visited Malaysia. Turned out you did and this is a very nice write-up about Malaysian food.

We Malaysians love our food so much that when we meet people, instead of asking ‘How are you?’ we ask, ‘Have you eaten your lunch/dinner?’

🙂
I did notice a typo, under KL food. Sambal Satong? It’s actually Sotong (squid).
If you happen to come again, I would love to treat you to a glass of teh tarik and hear your travel experiences.

Late in the game here-

I have a question about the curries.

Is it most common to use fresh made coconut milk among the street vendors there, or do they use canned coconut milk like most if not all SE Asian restaurants do here in the US?

Also, do Malaysians eat mainly Jasmine rice like Thais?

Thanks!

@Nsalba: Next time around, we’ll definitely visit Borneo…and with your help, hopefully dig even deeper into Malaysian cuisine.
