Malaysia's National Day will be celebrated with a special menu at the Hotel Nikko Ha Noi from August 21-31.
Organised in conjunction with the Embassy of Malaysia and the Malaysia Tourism Promotion Board, the menu will feature authentic dishes of Penang Island "the food capital of Malaysia".
The island was influenced by Chinese, Malay, Indian, and Nyonya (or Peranakan) cuisines, the latter being a mixture of Chinese and Malay.
Featured dishes include spicy and sour tamarind fish, spicy king prawn with stinky bean, Malaysian beef stew in oriental herbs, famous Penang fried flat noodles and curry fish head with lady fingers.
In addition, the teh tarik (pulled tea) – a hot black tea and condensed milk – will be brewed using an authentic technique of pouring back and forth from a high container to a low one. A demonstration will be presented daily.
The dinner buffet will cost VND500,000/person. Malaysian National Day is on August 31.
