A few weeks ago, I got a hello text from my ex-boss David who suggested I give Wun Nam Restaurant in Damansara a try. According to him, Wun Nam serves even better dishes compared to Wang Chiew and it’s a restaurant he patronises with his family often. Wun Nam Restaurant…

During our recent trip to Ipoh, we ventured slightly further from the city – Chemor to be exact, in search for this “really good” fish noodles, according to our sources. Hoong Wan is popular for its seafood and fish noodles, and prices vary depending on the items you order. Order…
Tawau food is said to be one of the tastiest in Sabah where fresh seafood is aplenty. It was during my first visit to this developing city that I tried the fish noodles at Kedai Kopi Hong Hong in Taman Megah Jaya. I didn’t know what to expect as I’ve…
I frequently travel around Peninsular Malaysia in search of good food, but I’ve never visited Sabah or Sarawak until last month when I went to Tawau. Admittedly, it is a town that wasn’t in my food radar but after going around the area, I’m certain this won’t be my last…

When it comes to soup, I have always preferred something robustly flavoured over the clearer variety. And the spicy seafood soup was what I opted for at Sami Sami, Ayana Resort Bali. Prior to dinner, my friends and I enjoyed an evening of breathtaking view and cocktails at Rock Bar…
Bagan Lalang is a place I’m not familiar with but a friend of mine recommended that I made this pitstop for seafood at Ong Cheng Huat en route Penang to KL. Located at the end of a winding and narrow road, the restaurant is known for its signature dishes –…
One of the things I noticed when I married rif was how much his family love their curry. For every special occasion, there was always a curry dish or at least something (incredibly) spicy. My first two reunion dinners with them were fiery hot. This year, our Chinese New Year…
