Eating OutDine out- Asian & Fusion CaféImmerse into the wonders of AsiatastesIn particular, Malaysian food is heavily influenced by Thai, Chinese,Indonesian and Indian cuisine. These influences extend from the use of thewok to the combinations of spices used in many popular dishes.Malay food is generally spicy. Dishes are not always necessarily chilli-hotper se, but there will always, at the least, be a chilli-based sambal on hand.Traditional Southeast Asian herbs and spices meet Indian, Middle Easternand Chinese spices in Malaysian food, leading to fragrant combinations ofcoriander and cumin (the basis of many Malay curries) with lemongrass,kaffir lime leaves, cardamom, star anise and fenugreek.As elsewhere in Asia, rice is an essential staple. Local or Thai rice is themost common, but Indian basmati is used in biryani dishes. Nasi lemak(‘fatty rice’), a dish of rice steamed with coconut milk and served with driedanchovies (ikan bilis), peanuts, hardboiled eggs, dried shrimp, cucumberand sambal, is considered Malaysia’s national dish and may be eaten forbreakfast, lunch or dinner. It is often served with a choice of curries ora popular spicy meat stew (usually, though not always, beef) known asrendang. Noodles are another popular starch staple, as are Indian breadssuch as roti canai, idli, puri and dhosa, which are commonly eaten withbreakfast.Early Chinese settlers often wed local Malay brides and this gave rise to ageneration of mixed Chinese-Malays known as Peranakan. The Malay word\"nonya\", a term of respect for older women, has become synonymous withthe distinctive Malaysian-Chinese cooking style of the Peranakans. Thebest known example in Australia is the popular spicy noodle soup laksa, ofwhich there are two main types, curry laksa and asam laksa. Curry laksa is acoconut curry soup with noodles, while asam laksa is a sour fish soup withnoodles.Malaysian desserts are wonderfully colourful and creative, including layeredrice flour and coconut sweets, multi-layered butter cake known as LapisLegit, and sweet coconut rice balls. A popular dessert is Kueh Bahulu, minisponge cakes that are dipped in black coffee. 77
