[Best Malay Restaurant @ PJ. Betul-betul Best!!]

Hi guys, Looking for an authentic Malay cuisine (Masakan Melayu Kampung) in Petaling Jaya? or a restaurant serving Makanan Nogori? Let me introduce you to Kampung-Lah Salai which tucked away in the heart of Kota Damansara, Petaling Jaya located right opposite Giant KD. Kampung-Lah Salai is a newly opened restaurant in Kota Damansara serving one the best Masakan Melayu Kampung, a mesh of Johor and Negeri Sembilan dishes. What is Malay cuisine (Masakan Melayu Kampung)? Malay cuisine is the traditional food of the ethnic Malays of Southeast Asia. The main characteristic of traditional Malay cuisine is the generous use of spices. Coconut milk is also important in giving Malay dishes their rich, creamy character. The other foundation is belacan (prawn paste), which is used as a base for sambal, a rich sauce or condiment made from belacan, chilli peppers, onions and garlic. Malay cooking also makes plentiful use of lemongrass and galangal. Kampung-Lah Salai has very unique and nostalgic interior design, protruding homes in the kampung (rumah kampung). Thatched roof on the corner to makes outdoor seating more cozy and a huge rumah kampung window to take your instagrammable photos. What to order? I highly recommend trying their Ketam Sambal Petai, Masak Lemak Daging Salai + Rebung, Ubi Rebus, Kambing Bakar Jumbo, Sayur Bendi Ikan Bilis Garing, Sagu Gula Melaka, Teh O ais laici, Air jagung vanilla Kak limah, and Teh tarik blended. What are you waiting for? Head down to Kampung-Lah Salai today with friends and families to enjoy a delicious and delightful moment together OH~~ Sedap!!
