Travel Tips for Malaysia

Indian Food in Malaysia

By backpackguru (Photographic Voyage) on Nov 28, 2011 in Food
Because almost a third of the population in Malaysia is Indian, it's a great country to enjoy some delicious and authentic Indian food. Almost any city throughout the country has some great restaurants where you can try some interesting specialties, but some of the best options are on the island of Penang in Georgetown. Make it a culinary tour and hop from restaurant to restaurant tasting the specialties.
