Msia: Lots of salt, lots of sugar, lots of flavoring, lots of MSG = Tastes good
SG: Low salt, diet sugar, no flavoring, no colouring, NO MSG = tastes like shit which one you choose? which is more overrated? which costs more? which is more enjoyable? |

QUOTE(Squidward @ Jul 9 2012, 10:39 PM) not say rotten...but just disapoint after come back from great places with top food. As a meat and seafood lover, really lacking in malaysia. a decent lobster also hard to find... u go USA u will find papaya and pineapple is treated as GOD food!!! so time to go eat papaya and pineapple. lobster is not expensive food in the right country. just like durian. u go USA eat malaysian food of cos expensive la. eat at the right country la. ( got a malaysian restaurant in california is opened by hongkie....facepalm....with putrajaya photo somemore....  ) nice food, price like eat steak in malaysia  |

I'm eating what the majority eats, I don't eat those Oriental Mandarin daily for dinner... But I have to agree that it is more superior. Since all those good materials (bigger prawns, bigger oysters, better vegetables, fresh salmon, juicy prime cuts) comes to Singapore. It's just that because of NEA and HPB, they are forced to cook more healthily, thus showing them being "kiamsiap". You can see EVERY SGrean say that Malaysian food is nice, but I can still see a majority of Malaysians preferring the food from their own country including myself.Go SG is to eat their top restaurants...daniel bulud, the hotel chiense restaurants. u go try and come back hanging your head in shame when u eat at our tai thong....

QUOTE(Squidward @ Jul 9 2012, 10:26 PM) Many locals sing praise about our food (so faptastic). But isit that good? most never seen the outside world. Thai food is major success worldwide. Tom yam half the world know. Our food? bah kut teh barely international. Got a few malaysian restaurants in europe and US, never really took off and expand wildly. interest level quite low. Compare world class sushis that's normal practice for import-export.Why? our food generally of low quality produce and use salty, heavy sauce to compensate. Not surprising given our 3rd world status (thanks to BN  )Mee goreng? just some fried noodles Asam laksa? Thai's tom yam more memorable Roti canai? oily pancake..thats all... bah kut teh? this one more interesting...but plenty of interseting china dishes that never gone international....bah kut teh meat is consider just so-so compare to top produce from France. Just compare our produce even! Durians...best sent to Singapore Mangosteen...best sent to Japan Seafood...selects sent to Hong Kong Left rubbish for us local..... When a simple burger like Kaw Kaw (by western standards) can become a huge fad, we know our food need serious improve! I say our standard has dropped way below 20 years ago! Pls no more tidak apa attitude and self praise! u like salt sugar and MSG? just dump them into mee and discard everything. oh wait thats char kuey teow! there...your kind of food. even in NZ, the best cherry handpicked to be exported to Japan and USA. even the NZ local cannot buy them but for pickers, we eat them like not tomorrow depends which category of food u looking for. fine dining, of course msian cant fight in that area. sushi is easy to make... that's why can go international.. plus it is healthy. |
