Dining in Kuala Lumpur
The Malaysian kitchen is a fusion of cultural diversity. For instance, Nasi Lemak is Malay food, Rojak is Indian Muslim, Char
Kuay Teow is Chinese and Laksa is Nyonya (a melding of Malay and Chinese). Each culture emphasises different ingredients, exploiting different flavours, for example the Malay curry tastes tangier compared to the Indian's.
