These sweet baby corn fritters are the perfect complement to a big breakfast of sausages and eggs. A dollop of crème fraiche is a wonderful side with this dish.

Palatial Thai – Chakri Palace
Despite an enjoyable meal at Imperial Chakri Palace Restaurant in the premier retail domain of Suria KLCC, the elusive search for authentic Thai food in the city continues. While the experience in the restaurant is most enjoyable and the food is good, the dishes appear to have veered from the original recipes in order to accommodate fickle Malaysian palates rather than maintain Thai authenticity. Management probably take a stance of “give them what they want to eat” rather than give them what Thais would eat.

The Club - A Weekend Out of Town, in Town
Next time you are thinking of a weekend escape, why not think about Kuala Lumpur? Yes, you read correctly – KL, the urban maze that is the capital of Malaysia. As amazing as it seems there are several places scattered around the outskirts of the city that don’t require extensive travel for when you want a little peace and quiet and some quality time with your partner.
Coca cola chicken
This surprisingly tantalizing dish will surprise your tastebuds! Best eaten with rice as it’s quite sweet.
Arancini balls
What do you do with leftover risotto? Make them into arancini balls! You can make arancini balls for a large group of friends, plus it could be prepared in advanced! Great party finger foods.
Apple sponge cake
For something delish to have with your midday tea, why not make an apple sponge cake. Not overly sweet it’s a perfect snack to indulge yourself on.
The Andaman - Naturally Appealing
The first thing guests arriving at The Andaman Resort on Langkawi notice is the isolation. Langkawi’s main island isn’t a big island and can be easily circumnavigated in half a day, so the 40-minute drive from the Langkawi International Airport probably comes as a surprise to most newly arrived guests.
Vietnamese Roll
A staple for many Vietnamese and Melbournians alike. This is a slight adaption on the delectable yet simple Vietnamese roll. The key is in the soy, coriander and chilli.
Bistro@The Loaf
Most shoppers at the Pavilion Kuala Lumpur know The Loaf for its premium quality Japanese-styled breads and pastries, teas, coffees (including their signature Deep Freeze Latte) and open air sidewalk setting at the front entrance of this up-market mall. Its prime location reflects its premium quality.
Cameron Highlands Resort
Many travellers seek comfort in going back to the past, to places and events that they are familiar with or the historic notion that things were better in the “olden days.” There’s something romantic about the past, in soaking oneself in a bathtub, taking a turn around the temperate gardens and, being served by waiters who have worked in the property for much of their life.
Tomato feta stack
A fantastically simple yet gorgeous looking dish. The tomato feta stack is sure to impress any guest. Beautiful vine ripened tomatoes tend to hold their shape a lot better.
Tabouleh
Tabouleh is a wonderful salad to have in the summer heat. Made with fresh herbs, olive oil and spices it’s refreshing by itself and in a sandwich.
