babe_kl writes: Come lunch time, Changkat Ceylon, Lorong Ceylon and Jalan Mesui will be abuzz with activities. It is very popular amongst the office workers around this area to have their lunch at the hawkers at these stretches. I used to come here very often when my office was nearer. These days I will only come here once in a long while due to the distance.There are a lot of good stuff around here ranging from the mixed rice stall located within a Chinese temple along Changkat Ceylon (that leads to Wisma MPL's carpark) which sells vegetarian dishes on the 1st and 15th of the lunar calendar. No doubt the dishes are very tasty but it's super duper expensive, ... read more

team bsg writes: in an authentic Indian RestaurantIn main street Tanah Rata ( flatlands) , Cameron Highlands there are numerous Indian restaurants side by side and probably no Indian Muslim restaurants. Which is remarkable considering that in most other towns the reverse is probably true !But then again in Camerons many things are refreshingly ( cooly) different. More Europeans per sq metres indulge in banana leaf rice than any other place in Malaysia.Also Chinese chicken rice... This is a popular dish in some Indian restaurants in Tanah Rata. Served by an authentic oldy Chinaman. But of course there will be some differences. ... read more

Lyrical Lemongrass writes: If at the end of this year you asked me to list out my most memorable events in 2008, this dinner party would definitely make the Top 10 list.  After having suffered through FBB’s numerous accounts of dinner parties he had hosted, I thought my time would never come.  But it did, thanks to my multiracial background.  For some *skewed BN inspired reason, he needed someone of Indian heritage, and I dug deep into the bottomest layer of my fatty epidermis to pull out the Indian card, and thus kindly fulfilled his masyarakat majmuk quota.  So if you haven’t been invited to one of FBB’s legendary dinner ... read more

Lyrical Lemongrass writes: We all have certain food preferences, but sometimes, it is necessary to get out of our comfort zone and look beyond our malay-chinese-indian mindset to see what’s available out there.  And I’m not talking about Japanese which is practically Malaysian. Let me tell you my story.  A long time ago, a certain blogger (let’s call him the Verbose Stud) dropped me a proposition.   An escapade, no less.  Before you taint your mind with mental illusions and delusions, let me qualify this by saying that it was to be a culinary escapade.  To cut a long ... read more

boo_licious writes: Oyster on iceI first caught wind of the Latest Recipe, Le Meridien Hotel's new cafe at last year's Food Bloggers gathering from Riz of Fried Chillies fame. Oozing praises for the new concept, he made it sound so tempting, I wanted to abandon the gathering and bolt straight away for the cafe. The magic word, he kept repeating was "Teppanyaki Ice Cream". Hold on, my brain was working out, "one can't fry ice cream on a teppan since it will melt right???"Prawns My curiosity was piqued hence, when I received an invitation to dine with Paprika, Lyrical Lemongrass and Cheryl Lum (thanks so much, ... read more

Lyrical Lemongrass writes: When I first saw The HSS’ pictures of Latest Recipe, I cursed.  No, no, it wasn’t an imaginary curse.  I sent him an SMS with some colourful language.  Firstly, I was jealous of his pictures, and secondly, I wasn’t there.  (Commercial break:  This dude takes FABULOUS pictures.  I have an altar for him in my garden where my pet frog, Tom, lives.  Tom worships him too.  End of commercial.)  So when I received an invitation to dine at Latest Recipe, I didn’t give two hoots whether The HSS was invited.  I was going, baby, and I was going to taste some of that gorgeous psychedelic teppanyaki ice cream which ... read more

Ramshackle appearances aside, the thirty plus-year-old pasar is a Malaysia-Truly-Asia marketer's dream. The cavernous structure, anchored at one end by a Chinese temple,is located a short walk from Amru Ibni mosque and sits just across the street from Kuil Sri Maha Kaliamman (a Hindu temple). Inside, the market is a seamless transition, over the length of a football pitch, from Chinese to Malay and Indian sections, each populated ... read more
