Yummy food but in yucky places

WE finally have validation that our food is better than our noisy neighbour’s.

Kuala Lumpur’s curry laksa has been ranked No. 2 on Lonely Planet’s Ultimate Eatlist of 500 best eating experiences, beating the chilli crab from Singapore (No. 17). More impressively, the humble laksa also trumped gastronomic staples like Tokyo’s sushi (No. 3), Bangkok’s som tum or papaya salad (No. 5) and Seoul’s bibimbap (No. 8) and dim sum from Hong Kong at No. 10.
