Warning: Our May issue will trigger some serious food cravings. This issue is all about the decadent food everyone loves. So for this month at least, let us forget about calories and just enjoy eating.
Few things are as addictive as fried chicken. You want the crispy skin, the juicy flesh, and in the case of Korean fried chicken, that sweet and spicy sauce that sticks to your fingers. After rounds of eating, we have compiled ten of the city’s best fried chicken. Now get ready to lick your fingers.
Our burgers have certainly grown in size. No longer content with just buns and patties, the monster burgers these days come with unusual ingredients (in a burger at least) such as pisang goreng, peanut butter, mac and cheese, and even two whole chicken chops. Then again, that’s how we like our street burgers: sloppy and messy.
A fan of the versatile meat that is pork? This feature lists some of the city’s best pork restaurants, from tonkatsu to barbecue ribs, and even a porky Indian restaurant.
To round off our food-heavy issue, we went looking for the best Japanese kakigōri and Korean bingsu. These shaved ice desserts are the perfect treats to cool you down in our hot weather. And if you’ve always been curious about saké, we have a guide for you, too.
Can’t find that cult lipstick in KL? Fret not; just check our list of top online beauty stores for all your cosmetic and skincare needs.
We also spoke to acclaimed director Saw Teong Hin on his Penang Hokkien feature film ‘You Mean the World to Me’, and also the eclectic music collective HOAX Vision.
