What the creator captured
Mark Wiens was highly impressed by the Ikan Bawal set in Penang, noting that the pomfret is fried only upon ordering to ensure maximum crispiness and freshness. He particularly enjoyed the complex flavors of the Malay curry gravy and the contrast between the oily fish and spicy sambals. The experience was elevated by the discovery of a hidden beachside gem where he could enjoy fresh seafood just steps from the ocean.
