A dish that tells its story — Beef Rendang reviewed

You can taste history in Beef Rendang if you know what to look for. Penang is considered the food capital of Malaysia and rivals Singapore for hawker excellence. The richly spiced and coconut-sweet character reflects those layers — coconut cream doesn't appear by accident; it came from a specific tradition.

The a Kuala Lumpur kopitiam setting made sense of it. You understand the food differently when the context is right. Milo alongside is part of that story. Some food is just fuel. Beef Rendang, properly made, is something more. This version told the story well.
