Trivia: Do you know why many Malaysian restaurants operate 24 hours around the clock ?
Answer: Did you know why many Malaysian restaurants operate 24 hours around the clock ? Because Malaysians love to eat!. No joke!. Ask any local Malaysian and more likely than not he is just had a heavy breakfast (a packet of nasi lemak) and already has plans to go for a teh tarik session tonight (midnight onwards)
A middle class working class Chinese Malaysians will have a bowl of Kuey Teow Soup or Chee Cheong Fun for breakfast, economy rice for lunch and economy rice for dinner. But all races, Chinese, India and Malays will meet together for a teh tarik session at supper time!
Ever wondered what do they do other than just eating? They also gossip about their favourite English Football clubs as well as watch live matches (any decent mamak restaurant would have a large LCD screen). This is what bonds all ethnics in Malaysia together.
My colleague from a company I used to work in used to ask me this joke question.
“If you are given only one food to eat every day in this World, what would it be?”
The answer is “Economy Rice”
