Food Republic Pavilion KL Shares Secrets of Oriental Delights at Its 1st Public Culinary Workshop ? Food Republic Pavilion KL, the first themed food atrium in Malaysia is on a mission to get more Malaysians to preserve and use traditional recipes on a regular basis.? ? The people from the food nation shared this delicious news during the launch of the first in a series of public culinary workshops that are aimed at keeping interest and knowledge of heritage recipes and cooking techniques alive.? A similar series of public workshops have proven to be a big hit at the brand’s Singaporean outlets since being introduced three years ago.? ? More than 50 foodies, food aficionados and those who simply wanted to learn how to dish out some tasty local delights proved an eager audience at Food Republic’s flagship outlet at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, here, today.??? ? The first public culinary workshop in the series, themed Oriental Delights featured well-loved favourites from two of Food Republic’s tenants – Sergeant Chicken Rice, from Singapore and Hong Kong La Mien, a member of the Palace Group of restaurant. ? Sergeant Chicken Rice, was founded by Kiang Joon Toh, one of the original Mandarin Hotel Chatterbox chef who made chicken rice a household name in Singapore decades ago.?? The Hainanese chicken rice with steamed chicken is just as fragrant and buttery with succulent steamed chicken made to exacting traditional standards.? ? Chef Paul from Sergeant Chicken Rice demonstrated the three components that go into making old fashioned Hainanese chicken rice, namely chicken seasoned and steamed to savoury tenderness and a simple dipping sauce that complements the seasoning used on the chicken.? He took extra time to demonstrate the making of the chicken rice explaining that it was essential to have well-coated, lightly seasoned and slightly firm rice for the Hainanese style of this dish.? He recommended a light hand with the seasoning of the rice to avoid it overpowering the delicate flavor of the chicken.? ?

Popular Malaysian food – Nasi ayam equals fond memories

By: Adline A. Ghani I don’t know what it is about nasi ayam or chicken rice, but I’ve always had nothing but fond memories of it. When I try to draw up the memories, however, it’s a total blank, but my psyche tells me that the fond memories are indeed there Continue reading

Red Quinoa, Cilantro, & Carrot: 1 dish, 4 meals.

Last night I attended a food bloggers event here in Seattle, something I don’t often do because a, I haven’t been blogging (you noticed, didn’t you), and b, I still think it odd to sit in a room full of people who I might or might not follow on twitter, who I might have read some odd personal bit of information about on their blog, and vica versa, and NOT SAY HI, or have them say hi to me, like I’ve known them for years. Let’s be honest, It’s weird Continue reading

Leftover with Thanks

Over the years, what I’ve learned about Thanksgiving dinner is, that my interest lies in leftovers. Rather than get crafty with indigenous grain stuffing or made from scratch pumpkin soup served in a hallowed out pumpkin, I far more look forward to the sum of leftovers begging to be played with in the following days. Not because I don’t want to shower my family and friends with delectable treats from my kitchen, no- I just know that two makers on the rocks and several glasses of wine in, my soft focus vision and bleeding heart will be aimed at the company I’m in, not what is on my plate.
