Malaysian Chinese Cuisine- A delightful product of mixing two cultures

 Chinese cuisine is not only a staple of China but is loved and thoroughly savored throughout the globe.  Staple Chinese food like rice, noodles, tea, tofu, soy sauce, and utensils such as wok and chopsticks are used worldwide. Local Chinese food is an excellent combination of taste, nutrition, appearance, and traditional recipes.

Malaysian Chinese cuisine is inspired by the culinary traditions of Chinese Malaysian immigrants and is most prominent in areas inhabited by Chinese communities. When immigration happens from one place to another, people tend to carry their traditions, culture, and recipes with them as well. They share their traditional food with people from different cultures, and this is how different cuisines become famous. Chinese food is celebrated in every corner of Malaysia.
