"Kita satu bangsa, Kita satu negara,
Kita satu matlamat...oooo~
Kita satu bangsa,satu negara,
Kita satu Malaysia..."
Hey Peeps!
We are back for our second post~
That is the song of Satu Malaysia ( 1 Malaysia ) produced by Lim KokWing university.
It represents unity, peace and acceptance.
Why do we use " Satu Malaysia " as our tittle???
Hehe!
You must be very curious right?
As Malaysians, we would like to recommend different types of cuisine which includes Malay, Chinese and Indian to show how united we Malaysians are and to let more people know about our culture.
SO!
Recently we went to three different places in Perak which are Tapah, Ipoh and also Taiping.
MALAY FOODS (TAPAH)
Our first stop was Tapah which we will be introducing some mouthwatering Malay foods.
We reached this place called "WARUNG" which means SHOP and it was named by the resident here.
It is famous for its traditional Malay foods.
It has been operating for the past 30 years and the current owner is the second generation.
Once we stepped into the place, the people there are friendly as the happily welcomed us.
The first thing they introduced to us is their famous food, ULAM.
The ingredients of Ulam are JANTUNG PISANG, KACANG KELISA, PUCUK UBI and SELOM.
This is the sambal sauce that we ate with the Ulam.
The left side is MACANG, the middle is SAMBAL BELACAN and the right side is SAMBAL TEMPOYAK, that is durian plus sambal.
The first impression when we saw the Ulam is like"WOW! What's that?!"
But as a "gourmet", we should have a concept of "never try, never know, once you try, you would definitely say YES !''
By the way, the dish only cost RM3.00 each.
While we are enjoying the Ulam, we smell something nice.
"What's that?!"
It represents unity, peace and acceptance.

WHOA!
The spicy-sour sambal with Ulam stimulates our appetite!
This dish fully fulfill our appetite and curiosity as well.By the way, the dish only cost RM3.00 each.
While we are enjoying the Ulam, we smell something nice.
"Oh! It is ikan bakar!"(Grilled Fish)
We can't resist the temptation, hence we ordered two types of ikan bakar.
The left side is called CENCARU.The right side is called IKAN KELI.
Inside IKAN CENCARU, it is filled with sambal kelapa.
It smells very nice.
The skin of the fish is very crispy and the fish tastes juicy.
Its salty-sour sauce is wonderful and fresh.
Sounds good right?
It is definitely worth trying!
The price of the ikan cencaru is RM6.00 each.
Move on to IKAN KELI.
The fish tastes soft and fresh.
It will be a perfect match if you eat with its little sweet-salty sauce.
Other than that, ikan keli is full of glial protein.
The price of it is RM3.00 each.
While others were enjoying their food, Zuo Min and Chai Yee interviewed a loyal customer of Warung.He has been supporting Warung for around 10 years.
Apart from the delicious food, the owner maintained good relationship with the customers.

CHINESE FOOD (IPOH)
Talking about the chinese cuisine, the restaurant that we visited in Ipoh was TASTE GOOD.

It is very special and extremely delicious.
We asked the chef regarding the recipe of the soup but he said it is "Top Secret."

INDIAN FOOD (TAIPING)
In the year 1900, a young Indian man had migrated to Malaya and he opened a restaurant named Bismillah. This is an Indian Muslim stall which consider as ''Mamak''.
But after that, he sold his restaurant to another person who is the current owner's father.
When we entered the restaurant, we were attracted by its antique design.
There are a lots of curio inside the restaurant.
Among the food that Bismillah served, the recommended TEH TARIK and ROTI CANAI are it's best selling items.
The first one is TEH TARIK.
Its portion is bigger compared to other regular teh tarik and it ONLY costs RM1.40.
Moreover, the technique of stretching the tea helps to mix well with another essential ingredient.
Thus, bringing out the strong aroma and the subtle taste of tea.
The restaurant served amazing roti canai that costs RM0.70 per piece.
The roti canai comes with 4 types of KUAH, (A kind of sauce which is a combination with roti canai) which you should not miss out when visit this restaurant.
Those 4 types of kuah are KUAH KURMA, KUAH IKAN, KUAH AYAM and KUAH HITAM.
Start from the top left is Kuah Ikan, Kuah Hitam, Kuah Kurma and the last down right is Kuah Ayam.
The taste of the Kuah Hitam is a little sour and it stimulates our appetite.
By the way, it is made by beef and smell tasty!
Move on to Kuah Kurma, it is very special because it is green color and we never try the taste before. Its taste like mushroom!
For Kuah Ikan and Kuah Ayam, although they are common that can be found in other places but it is the tastiest among all those that we have tried before.
These 4 types of kuah is selling at RM0.90.
"I had this food since i was young and it still remains unchanged", said Mr.Ahmed, a loyal customer of Bismillah.
Picture taken with one of the staff.
