Malaysian durian is the best in the world. While traveling around Melaka recently saw a group of young China students in a school trip buying durians to eat instead of spending their money on snacks and ice creamโ€ฆdurian is not cheap & that area is touristy so itโ€™s even pricier

Sembilang fish is not like farm raised catfish but they are caught wild from the sea so thats why it doesnt taste muddy. Great vlog Mark!

Penang instantly attracted my attention and now is a top 5 destination added to my bucket list. The turmeric & coconut milk curry looks super satisfying with the addition of fresh herbs, chillies, veggies, & fish heads. The seared prawns married in that curry sauce had my senses activated just by imagining the flavors and aromas Mark was experiencing. Omgoodness Mark's reaction alone ignites my curiosity and cravings for these delicious dishes. I have been fortunate to enjoy authentic southeast Asian curries so I can imagine how delightful these flavors are. However, it's more fulfilling when you're actively in the motherland of these cuisines surrounded by lushly tropical landscapes with the fresh salty seaside aroma tasting the local ingredients and flavors of this amazing cuisines. Durian is an addictive sweet & nutty richness that makes you feel good inside thoroughly wholesome. Wow what a pleasure to experience overall!! Thanks Mark for this phenomenal content and introduction to these fantastic dishes in Penang!! Wishing you safe travels always & many more blessings!! Cheers!! ๐Ÿˆ๐Ÿ๐Ÿฅฅ๐Ÿ†๐ŸŒถ๐Ÿฅ˜๐Ÿฒ๐Ÿ›๐Ÿน

The moment you start to use your hand to eat rice, you immediately win the respect of the local Malay community and are instantly accepted as part of them. Then you get free food. ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„
