A MALAYSIAN FOOD & TRAVEL BLOG
Focusing on non halal local hawker fare, it is not difficult to guess that the newly opened E.A.T Food Village at Publika shopping gallery became my favourite lunching place. It brings together some of the best hawker food vendors from Klang Valley and North Peninsular Malaysia under one (air-conditioned) roof. The decor reminds diner of yesteryear; with shop facades that look as though time … [Read more...]

Quietly tucked away from the busy district of Kuala Lumpur, Rama V offers traditional … [Read more...]
Located in a quieter part of Mont Kiara, Ristretto Cafe wears multiple hats- it’s a restaurant and a coffee shop. The latter outshines as many has good things to say about their coffee. Ristretto's interior is cozy, warm and inviting. One can also dine outside and soak up the sun on the al fresco terrace. Upon placing our orders, the cute and affable barista made our drinks behind the … [Read more...]

Aik Yuen needs no further introduction as most KL folks would have known or heard about this place that serves great Hokkien noodles.

Few weeks back, we were invited to a Godiva event, where we had the privilege of being a chocolatier (ahem) for a day. The event also opened our eyes to a little history on Godiva's chocolate and how it was made. Godiva Chocolatier was founded 80 years ago in Brussels, Belgium when master chocolatier Joseph Draps founded a chocolate company that was named in honor of the legend of Lady Godiva. … [Read more...]

Some refers it to Uncle Aru's though. Finding Uncle Aru's stall is no easy feat but if you get all the landmarks right - opposite … [Read more...]
Contrary to popular belief, we don't usually carry our DSLR around. So whenever we stumble upon some real good food, we will take pictures of the meals with our humble iPhones. These pictures have been sitting in our archive folders for quite some time and sometimes they make us melancholy for a time when we were hungry. So we are now sharing these low quality pictures by starting the Grub of The … [Read more...]
