Food...one of my favorite subjects!


Lunch @ Nirvava


Dinner @ Devi's Corner


Porridge @ McDonald's


If you know me pretty well, or at least, if you've ever been to dinner with me...you know that eating is one of my favorite things to do. =)

Since I've been to KL, I've tried some of the best food that I've ever had...and it doesn't empty my pockets either!

My first day in KL, I ate at a place called Nirvana. Here I had a South Indian vegetarian meal placed on Banana leaves. I finished it off with some Asian soy milk - (tastes diff. from American soy milk).

One of my favorite places to eat in Bangsar is Devi's Corner. You can get everything from Malaysian 'satay' to Indian 'naan' and 'tandoori chicken'. Here you will see everyone from locals, to Australian tourists, to Exec's, and even children enjoying some great grub from Devi's Corner.

I hate to admit my the next place I have eaten 3 times since I have been here....McDonald's! Yes...it doesn't sound appealing, but believe me, McDonald's in the US needs to take lessons from McDonald's in other countries on giving not only great service, but delivering piping hot, delicious food!

I had a porridge-like meal called Bubur. It's very, very similar in taste to my Mom's 'Arrozcaldo', (a Filipino porridge with rice, ginger, garlic, & chicken). The only difference in taste from McDonald's version is that it doesn't have fish sauce (a key ingredient in the Filipino version).

So for McDonald's to provide a dish similar to home cooking...I had to go back for seconds.=)

Adellle,

You blog page looks great! I love all the pictures! And the food looks so good. Your appartment looks amazing, better than any furnished apartment in US. And the office has a very cool feel to it. We miss you so much. I think we might use one of your excerpts at our info session.

Julia and the rest of AIESEC of course
