Malaysian Food I Miss the Most

It's about 5 months I had been away from Malaysia. Wow, how time flies huh. I think this is the longest time I've been away from Malaysia. To be honest, I miss the hot weather, the food and all my dearest friends and family in Malaysia. As a food lover, the first thing I want to do when I'm back to Malaysia is food hunting :)

What Malaysian food do I miss the most? The list is endless. Here I simply list out top 5 foods that I miss the most.

Ayam Penyet - Ayam Penyet is my priority. I know it's from Jawa, Indonesia but it can be easily found in Malaysia. I don't really like it before and started to like it since two years ago which is I don't know why. It doesn't look fancy but it's still yum tho.
   

Nasi Ayam / Hainanese Chicken Rice - Ahhh when it comes to Nasi Ayam Hainanese, Nasi Ayam Hainan Chee Meng, Bukit Bintang is the first place that will cross in my mind when thinking about it. Their Nasi Ayam is so good and the price is affordable. Never miss their Nasi Ayam every time I come down to Bukit Bintang.

Sayap Ayam Panggang / Satay - Sayap Ayam and Satay are very famous street foods in Sabah. It's fair enough to say that I grew up eating this. I mean, my grandparents bought this for me twice a week or everytime they went to Pasar Malam.

Bambangan + Ikan Masin + Lada Putih - Bambangan is Sabah's tradition food. It's kind of fruit which I believe is from mango family but more like wild mango. Bambangan usually made into pickle. Well, I don't really know how to describe this because I just learned to eat bambangan last year or 2 years ago. I get sick when I eat that for the first time. And, I only eat bambangan when it cooks with salted fish and lada putih.

Mee Sup Ungau - Ahh, this soup, I only can get this in my hometown. Everyday before going to school or after back from school, I always went there waiting for my bus and my grandpa to pick me up to back home. I called it Mee Sup Ungau because Ungau is the chef's name since that place doesn't have name and her kedai sup is quite famous in my hometown. I remember when I'm back from KL, my grandparents bought it every single day for me hahaha and I never get bored of it.

Other than that, I really miss Cendol / Ice Kacang, Nasi Lemak, Laksa Penang, Teh Tarik, Roti Canai and all the Malaysian food  haha. The reason why Nasi Lemak, Laksa, Teh Tarik and Roti Canai not on my top list because I can get it here. My mom can cook it for me and there are several Malaysian Cuisine here though it doesn't taste exactly the same as in Malaysia. 

I better stop now before my saliva glands go into overdrive. I just ate dinner yet I'm suddenly hungry again.

Free Sample Food | HONEYBAKED HAM

Howdy y'all.
Just a quick update! I was so confused this morning of what I wanna eat for lunch. I brought ravioli shrimp but I don't feel want to eat that so suddenly (weird). And I don't even know what I want.  It always happens to me, like you are super hungry but you don't know what you want to eat. Am I the only one like that?

So, before our lunch time, suddenly there's a guy came to the office with 2 boxes of food. Guess what, we got the free sample sandwich from Honeybaked, yeay!! There are two types of sandwich, Ham Classic  and Roasted Turkey Classic. I grabbed the  Roasted Turkey Classic instead of Ham Classic because I don't know what kind of ham they served.

Signature Boxed Lunch includes a sandwich, sides (Chips) and dessert (cookies). It's $8.29 each with delivery fees may be around $2 and they gave us for free. What a lucky day :)

Roasted Turkey Breast, Swiss cheese, lettuce, tomato, savory mayo and hickory honey mustard on a baker's roll. It doesn't look fancy tho but who cares huh. It's kind of hard bite and cold, I don't if it's meant to be like that haha. And my colleague said she's not impressed with the sandwich and it's something that she can make it at home. But it FREE though, just eat it haha XD

We got free sample 2 days ago too. Chicken popcorn?? I don't know what they called it but it's so YUMMMMM! I wonder what kind of food we'll get next week hehehe. So these kind of people always come to the office and give us free sample / tester to advertise their business. That's it!

PS : TGIF! Yeayyyyyy, weekends!

FOOD REVIEW | Korean Foods

Before the flash flood strike, I went to the Asian Market (H Mart Korean Market) with my sister to get something for our tummy. I'm so lazy to drive that time and it's going to rain soon but  my sister been craving Korean food for days. It's quite far from our house, 20 - 30 minutes drive.

Inside the H-Mart, there are several places that serve variety of hot bowl dishes and soups that come to either rice or noodle. Out of all the restaurants in H-Mart, I frequently order at Bibijo Express. This place known for their hot stone bowl soups. There is a variety soup available but my favorite is the Korean beef tofu soup. I ordered Hot Stone Grilled Bulgogi instead that day.

Around 5 minutes wait for my dish and it was so hot, I have to wait 2 or 3 minutes. Kidding, I didn't wait for it to cool down and I just eat it right away because I'm so damn hungry. Because of that, I burned my tongue xD The price range around $8-$10, can't beat that!

Two days after that day, I went to 99 Ranch Market with my Aunty and her husband and my sister for grocery. Other place for Korean Food! I may not a fan of K-Pop or whatsoever, but I'm a fan of their foods. So yum! This time, we choose Yori-Yori restaurant.

I ordered Korean Hot Stone Bowl Bibimbap. And again I burned my tongue because I'm so into it and forgot it is hot xD (Makan sampai licin)

Ps : Dang, I'm hungry and craving for this now!
