Malaysia Entertainment Guide: An Insight

With its rich and varied culinary tradition, Malaysia is a food lover’s paradise. All hotels and inns have restaurants, coffee shops and food courts and other outlets; but other than these, there are restaurants galore. Down nearly every street you can find some restaurant or the other serving everything from fast food to authentic Indian, Chinese, Malay, Thai and Japanese delicacies.

Street food – eat what the locals do, the way the locals do – on the move; quick nibbles of satays of bamboo skewers; a steaming bowl of noodle soup, a complete meal in itself or bite into the luscious and freshest of tropical fruits. The best food is reputed to be that which can be had at the roadside food stalls- char-grilled and cooked fresh and fast, and a must if you want to savour the true flavours of Malaysia.

If you are a night bird, Malaysia has plenty of nightlife to offer. There are a selection of reputed nightclubs, bars and discotheques in big hotels that are open till wee hours in the morning.
Night markets especially in Kuala Lumpur are worth a visit. Penang too has a thriving nightlife from night markets to cocktail lounges, dancing, dining and cultural shows. There are also a few government owned casinos.
