Quick Eats<br />
Some of us may spend 20 minutes or 20 hours at the airport waiting for a<br />
flight. While waiting, why not grab a quick bite or drink to replenish yourself?<br />
More than just an airport, Malaysia Airports is the way of life. It is a lifestyle<br />
destination where visitors — both local and international find a variety of<br />
gifts, souvenirs and food. Here are several food options we recommend<br />
you to visit!<br />
WHET YOUR APPETITE<br />
WITH LOCAL FLAVOURS AT<br />
MALAYSIAN<br />
RECIPE CAFE<br />
AND<br />
OLD MALAYA<br />
KOPITIAM<br />
This family of entrepreneurs may only<br />
have one member with formal culinary<br />
skills but rest assured, they continue<br />
to cook up a storm in the food and<br />
beverage business.<br />
Old Malaya Kopitiam and Malaysian<br />
Recipe Cafe Director, Muhammad<br />
Fidzwan bin Md Idris said the family of<br />
seven may have come from different<br />
academic backgrounds but their passion<br />
remains the same and that is to provide<br />
the best in the food and beverage industry.<br />
Both Old Malaya Kopitiam and Malaysian<br />
Recipe Cafe started in 2008 and is now<br />
run by the three brothers; Director, Mohd<br />
Firdaus bin Md Idris, Chef, Muhammad<br />
Farid Haziq bin Md Idris and Muhammad<br />
Fidzwan bin Md Idris. The restaurants were<br />
mooted off by Fidzwan's parents who hail<br />
from Larkin, Johor Bahru and wanted to<br />
bring southern local flavours to the capital<br />
city and its surrounding areas.<br />
Today, the menu still retains its southern<br />
influences but it has also kept with times<br />
and has dishes with a Western touch.<br />
This includes Malaysian Recipe Cafe's<br />
bestselling dishes such as Nasi Goreng<br />
Chicken Chop, Nasi Lemak Ayam<br />
Rendang and Mee Rebus.<br />
"We believe in providing the best. The<br />
taste and quality has to be good or else<br />
you would not be seeing your customers<br />
again. Both restaurants offer meals at<br />
affordable prices and our portions are<br />
large!" said Fidzwan.<br />
Commenting on type of clientele, he said<br />
the restaurants attract a healthy mix of<br />
both local and international customers<br />
with plenty of regular customers<br />
especially at Old Malaya Kopitiam.<br />
Fidzwan continues, "We also serve our<br />
signature coffee drink either hot or cold<br />
and is a favourite among customers. The<br />
coffee beans are sourced locally and we<br />
blend them ourselves."<br />
