Description

A Day in Penang takes you on a culinary tour of this bustling, intoxicating region in Malaysia's north. A brisk walk through George Town is alive with the fragrances of laksa - coriander and cumin (the foundation of Malay curries), along with lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, cardamom, star anise and fenugreek. This book captures a day in the life of this food-obsessed state, from breakfast through to dessert, and featuring iconic national recipes that will quickly convert you to a chili-lover.

Malaysian cuisine is some of the best in the world; for centuries the Malay Peninsula has harbored ships from the Middle East, India, Europe, China and Indonesia, creating a delectable melting pot of spice, flavors and ingredients. And while Kuala Lumpur might be the nation's official capital, Penang is undoubtedly the reigning food capital.
