Title: Home Cooking -
Post by: sidestreaker on December 03, 2013, 12:38:51 PM: We Malaysians are blessed with a such a wonderful gastronomically based culture where great food is so easily accessible and still (relatively) cheap within easy reach.

How about some home-cooked food once in a while? My parents doesn't have to try hard to persuade me to go back to my hometown with what they put on the table. Simple and humble home cooked food, minus the MSG and preservatives, this is the essence in which my bones and flesh are made off, and ingrained deeply into my taste buds.

My dad's specialty is his Yong Tau Fu...

I can almost literally finish that entire pot myself....
