Dosai from Rasa. Not curry from Kayu Manis or Istana Malay­isa. Sorry.

As well as car­ry­ing out all my usu­al duties as Empress of the Inter­net and Edit­or of the Wel­ling­tonista, I’ve also been doing reviews of loc­al Malay­si­an res­taur­ants for Malay­sia Kit­chen – a glob­al ini­ti­at­ive that aims to edu­cate and inform con­sumers about Malay­si­an cuisine and res­taur­ants. It’s a hard life, being forced to eat tasty curry on someone else’s dime, I tells ya.

So you wanna be like me? Of course you do. Luck­ily, to cel­eb­rate May-lasia (I apo­lo­gise for the pun, I did­n’t make up that word!) you can get a free feed too.

Curry Chal­lenges – crave the date (again, sorry!):

Can you handle the Malay­sia Kit­chen heat? Chal­lenge your curry tol­er­ance level dur­ing the month of May-lay­sia at your favour­ite Malay­si­an res­taur­ant – for free.

Be the first 100 at the res­taur­ant to taste and try a range of cur­ries, test your taste buds and see how much they can handle.
