Malaysian food

Like any other cuisines in the world Malaysian cuisine has it's own uniqueness, like India is curry, Italian is cheese and pasta but as for Malaysia there are various types of uniqueness due to the fact that it is a multi-racial country where Malays, Chinese,Baba(mixture of chinese and malay culture and heritage) & Indians live together in harmony, so out of the large variety dishes i can possibly think of in Malaysia are: Roti canai, Roti tissue, char kuay teow, bak ku teh, Hokkien Mee, Mee Goreng, Wan Tun Mee, deep fried chicken skin, Indian nasi bryani, nyonya cuisine, nasi lemak and loads more..

And there is no doubt that Malaysian cuisine is absolutely popular for its fantastic taste and smell. Where as the presentation of the food in Malaysia is normally just plain and simple and served on a flat plastic or tin plate but yet it's so very attracting to the person/people eating it.

Also compare with countries like Aus, a majority of Malaysian food is far more cheaper than it is in other countries, I read an article last year on an Australian journalist who went to Malaysia and dine in normal road side restaurants and having to spend less than 15 aussie$ i think he was able to order heeps of things including drinks. which is O so very cheap!! but yet some times we as Malaysians often do complain that our food is way too costly where in fact its not...

I also noticed that many of Malaysian's dishes are made from very basic simple ingredients such as Roti canai, mutton soup ect... which all smells and taste good.

So who says Malaysian's dont know how to eat good food aiy...
