Food Heaven

The great thing about being in Malaysia is the fabulous food. There's a mix of Malaysian, Chinese and Indian cultures in Malaysia and this is reflected in the huge range of cuisine available.

In UK hotels, if you're running a workshop you're lucky if you get a few chocy biscuits at break time. Here, every couple of hours a banquet appears outside the meeting room with noodles, samosas, satay and peanut sauce, all kinds of little prawny things, spicy chicken, fried rice, dim sum, roti, plus loads of sweets, little cakes and huge plates of watermelon and papaya, etc. Plus of course you've got lunch and dinner.
Its so hard to resist, especially as the people here love talking about food and are always encouraging you to try something new. Its got to the stage where I don't eat anything in the evening and I still feel stuffed. Must try and get to the hotel gym.
