| Introduction | Being a food writer in Malaysia is like being a liar who keeps getting fed good food. Our media does not dare to give bad reviews. I've eaten more than my fair share of great food and two-dozen of my share of not so good food which I also had to say was good. I guessed it just came down to it being time to say what I really felt, on my own turf. |
