1Malaysia.

Yikes...I'm definitely gonna start with apologizing for my long absence. After my last entry, I had my Finals to bang my head on. After that, which is my sem break, I'm plain lazy to do anything. Now that I'm already in my 2nd week of me 3 week sem break, there are many things that I wanted to post. ALL ABOUT FOOD!!

I seriously have to thank God for the luck I have on food during this sem break. I've tasted the best food you can possibly find in Kuantan. Practically all in one place.

My father recently made friend with a French chef - Mr. Alexandre Stephane. He opened a restaurant called 1Malaysia. Several newspapers had reported about this restaurant so some might have heard of it. Basically this restaurant do Tex-Mex, 2 in 1 BBQ steamboat, some Malaysian cuisine and dessert.

1Malaysia Restaurant

I've only just finish first week of my sem break and I've already visited this restaurant around 5 times.

They offer Mexican food which is hard to get here in Kuantan, like Tortilla, Tacos Burritos and Enchiladas. They are served with either mashed potato or French fries, you choose. And one tip, you'll have to try out the mashed potato. It's absolutely heaven-like. One of the best mashed potato I've ever tasted.

They also have in their menu Sirloin steak, Cordon Bleu (you have to try this!), Homemade Beef Burger and many other mouth-watering western food.

For those who prefer local favourites, their fried rice is definitely worth a try.

As for desserts, Royal Chocolat and Orange Tart is a MUST!!! I'm not gonna tell you how good it taste, you'll just have to try it yourself.

As for anything special, you'll have to order beforehand. But here in store for you, I have a sneak peak. I went to 1Malaysia yesterday and I had something special - Foie gras, French for goose liver. And for those who went "ewww!" at the sight of "goose liver" you have no taste buds at all.


Foie gras

According to Mr. Alex (Alexandre Stephane), this plate cost approx. RM100 per plate if you order in a hotel or restaurant. And I had 2 yesterday night!!

Another French delicacy I had yesterday night is cheese. And this is no ordinary cheese, what I had yesterday was flown over all the way from France by Mr. Alex.

I'm terribly sorry, I've forgotten to take a picture of it before we start devouring such mouth-watering delicacy...hehe...this is what I have to offer you. paiseh~


There are 3 cheeses. The one at the top, the white one beside the bread, and the orangy one on the right. Regretted not asking for the names of those cheeses.

Other than this, we had lamb leg last week. That and the delicacies shown above are all prepared specially by Mr. Alex himself. Such luck!!!!!

1Malaysia is located in one of the shop houses beside the Seri Malaysia Hotel (beside Vistana) along Jalan Teluk Sisek.
