Neato. Thanks!
That whole Sultanate thing sounds even more complicated than European aristocracy.
Should I ever get the chance to try Malay food, what should I try?
It’s quite a common misunderstanding of the word “Malay”, but no biggie. In Malaysia, “Malay” specifically refers to the ethnic group. I think you meant to ask about Malaysian food instead, which comprises Malay, Chinese, Indian, various other ethnicities, and even combinations of ethnicities.
If you do specifically want Malay food, I think nasi lemak is a must try.
Then again, different states have different niches. The state I’m from is famous for Peranakan (Chinese+Malay) food, and I would highly recommend that.
Like the other person said. I would also recommend Nasi Lemak, it’s the national dish after all. The rest kinda depend on where you are.
