Malaysia Airport Showcases KLIA's Top Restaurants @ Taste MIGF 2018

Taste Malaysia International Gastronomy Festival (MIGF), a spectacular gastronomy extravaganza gathering Malaysia's best restaurant in one place is back this year! The 2-day festival happens on 1st and 2nd September 2018 was held at Berjaya Time Square Hotel. We had the pleasure of savouring tasty offerings from 'Taste of Malaysia Airports' booth featuring three KLIA's top restaurants, namely Bumbu Desa, Grandmama's and Fukuya. These three restaurants were part of the Top 25 winners from last year's KULinary event, a signature dining discovery campaign hosted by Malaysia Airports to celebrate gastronomic excellence and dining experiences at both terminals of the airport, KLIA main terminal and klia2. The annual KULinary event is an ideal platform for travellers to sample a variety of exciting F&B offerings that are available at the airport, which include eateries associated with well-established international brands as well as popular local eateries. Throughout the month-long MIGF 2018 celebration in September, Bumbu Desa, Grandmama's and Fukuya will also be offering a special menu for its signature dishes at their KLIA outlets.



BUMBU DESA

A scrumptious spread of the best of Indonesian cuisine from Bumbu Desa with its signature dishes such as Nasi Tumpeng (a special dish made to celebrate important events), Ikan Bawal Taliwang Lombok, Gulai Kikil, Rendang Daging, Gorengan and many more. We really enjoyed our meal, all the dishes were hearty and tasty.

 
Ayam Cabai Ijo

Flavourful, tender and juicy chicken laden with green chili paste. Seriously, good stuff!

Ikan Bawal Taliwang Lombok

Perfectly deep fried, the fish was super crispy on the outside, yet tender and moist on the inside. The chili paste adds a 'good kick' to the fish.

Rendang Daging

One of my favourite dish, the highly aromatic fall-apart tender beef was so soft and bursting with flavour, truly delicious.

 Gorengan 

 Nasi Liwet

Aromatic rice cooked in coconut milk, chicken broth, lemongrass and Indonesian's spices, so good you can eat it on its own.

Offering a mini Malaysia experience right in the airport, Grandmama's serves traditional Malaysia flavours that bring back the fond memories of grandmothers cooking in the kitchen. Their Nasi Lemak is a must try dish!

Fluffy and fragrant coconut rice served with succulent curry chicken, anchovies, peanuts, boiled egg and amazing sambal.

FUKUYA

Last but not least, Fukuya @KLIA, which is a must visit restaurant for those who love authentic Japanese cuisine.
