Sambal Shiok

'Sambal Shiok' takes you to one of the most varied Asian cuisines, which is characterized by influences from China, India and Indonesia. Discover that Malaysian cuisine is a perfect balance between sweet, sour, salty and spicy with a hint of bitter. It's time to get to know Malaysia: the melting pot of Southeast Asia. Imagine yourself in Georgetown on Penang, the culinary mecca, and enjoy the fantastic street food: 'Penang assam laksa' noodle soup, 'nasi lemak', or chicken satay that tastes just a bit different than we are used to.
