Glorious, glorious food in KL

Posted in Travel by themediaslut on the December 30th, 2005

themediaslut was in Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia, for the Christmas weekend with her girlfriend/s and will be in KL for the New Year weekend too. 

Welcome to Malaysia? 

Celcom is one of the mobile operators in Malaysia and has came up with this advertising campaign for proclaiming almost every area which has Celcom coverage as its territory.

Quite interesting to proclaim an area when one has coverage. 

What happen to the good old planting of a flag?

 

 

Fans of Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code would have loved this mural at a shoe shop.

It’s a rendition of The Last Supper but as you can see, women are more celebrated this time round.. 

Alright, enough of advertisements and murals. Here’s the food. 

What’s a trip to KL without Bak Kut Teh (Pork Ribs Soup with Tea)? themediaslut was bought to the outskirts of KL to taste some of the better Bak Kut Teh that is not listed on any maps or guide books.

Only the locals know of this place.

Look at the layer of oil floating.. Yummy!

This is a very self service place as we had to make our own tea. Luckily friends brought the tea leaves. Otherwise it would just be Bak Kut (Pork Ribs) and no Teh (tea).

Cute dog at Bak Kut Teh place. Some side distraction.

After this, it was dessert time and we scoured the streets for roadside durians.

Finally, themediaslut and gang found one stall…

Look at this chicken (little) drumstick shaped durian.. Look how soft, yellow and tender the meat is on this durian. It was almost the perfect durian as it tasted very milky…

Do not scroll down further if you find eating durian disgusting… The ectasy of eating the perfect durian (some say its better than sex)!

   

 

Ohhh…  look at the last pics.. those eyes…..

"Enough of pics of my girlfriend, you slut!" says the jealous boyfriend,"go find your own girlfriend."

"I said ENOUGH!"

"Enough of KL, you say," said themediaslut, "you go back to Singapore!"

Once themediaslut chased away her annoying friends back to Singapore.. she tucked into more food…

Look at this steamed fish…. themediaslut thinks its a garoupa.. but can any fish experts verify?

Look at this hot and sour crabs.. One can only find chilli crabs or pepper crabs in Singapore. This is uniquely Malaysia….

These two dishes, plus another plate of fried rice, enough to feed four hungry people, cost only RM120… that’s like SGD60…

See what you missed if you don’t listen to themediaslut and  stay an extra day in KL… see!
