Food trip around South East Asia

           When we talked about travel it's not only about alluring places and warm people. There is really more when we get to a certain destination. Of course if you are a traveler, you also love to taste different or exotic food. Just want to share our encounter with the best and popular dishes around the 4 South East Asian countries that we've visitied mainly in Singapore, Malaysia, Cambodia and the Philippines.

We had lunch at Bayview beach hotel (photo above) in Penang. 'Twas the first time that I've tasted chicken satay though this is also a popular street food in Singapore. It's a skewer cubes of marinated chicken roasted on barbeque. It is best to have satay with the peanut sauce. Really different!

I'd never forget this sizzling plate at Long beach hawker center in Batu Ferringhi, Pulau Penang. A sizzling plate of shrimp, sutong (squid), veggies, thin noodles, egg and mushrooms. We always had this almost every dinner during our stay in the island. A must try!

Hmmm.. really look so tasty! We had this dish in one of the hawker centres in the lion city. Well, I guess we just love to eat at the hawker centres whenever we're in Malaysia or Singapore. Above photo is a deer meat dish with veggies.

Kopitiam! true Singapore taste. Some more deer meat dish but this time at Lau Pa Sat hawker centre.

Don't forget to have a drink or two at Raffles Long bar, still in Singapore. They said that the Singapore sling is best here plus you can have unlimited peanuts in your table. A place in SG where you can literally litter.

I can't really believe that I'd get the chance to taste a Khmer dish. This was during our visit in Siem Reap, Cambodia. This may look like a very simple dish but the sauces tasted really spicy and different.

Three of the best tasting donuts at Big Apple donuts in Melaka. the 'alien' (one with choco curls on top) is my favorite while my partner love the 'alpine' (middle).  Just perfect for snacking!

  The satay and kebab in a bamboo hut resto in Melaka. They also serve a delicious strawberry shake.

 One of the best seafood platter that we had in Langkawi Telaga harbour park. How's that for dinner?

No Problem-a seafood place in Mactan, Cebu Philippines offers the best of SuTuKil dishes.

Though Cebu is best known for their lechon or roast pig,  I would still prefer Golden Cowrie's Crispy Pata and I can't wait to try it again.
