One of the best reasons to come to Malaysia is the food, made up of two of the most amazing cuisines – Chinese and Indian- and one of the world’s most underrated – Malay. Each of these three has learnt from the other two, giving rise to some great, distinctive dishes. The Chinese do curries, the Indians and Malays cook tofu- and everyone does noodles – with rice still the staple. Plus there is a variety of excellent fish and unusual tropical fruits.
These sizzling claypots (Sweet and Sour Chicken and Kung Pao Chicken) are among our favourites, and at RM4.50 or $1.50 Canadian each we just do not cook at home.

The food looks fabulous!!! I can see, in particular, due to cost, why you do not cook. I can tell you I would not either. Take good care. Love, Sonya

Looking good! Are you sure about kung poo? Here it is called kung pao in the Chinese restaurants. I’m not sure I’d want to eat anything with poo in it. 🙂 Now I’m all caught up with all your entries. Looking forward to the next one.
Love,

Hi Steve and Pam,
Its been awhile since we’ve talked but reading your website makes me feel like you are right here. The pictures are beautiful!!!! I am very jealous and I think that guest bedroom will get alot of use . You have been blessed. Only 13 more sleeps until our 4 year sentence is over.
My thoughts and prayers are with you both as you start this new life. Please keep up the website I love to come on and dream.

OK… you knew I’d be sculking around this page! I have one MAJOR concern! If you never cook, then you will not learn to prepare these delicious dishes yourselves. Let’s not forget that one day you will be coming home… and when your mouth waters for some nice Malaysian food, WHAT WILL YOU DO? I can see that I will simply have to visit to rectify this situation. You leave me no choice!
Blessings
