About Jamie
Jamie writes about Malaysian food the way she eats — methodically, hungrily, and with strong opinions. She has logged hundreds of stall and restaurant visits across KL, Penang, Ipoh, JB, and beyond since 2018, with a particular focus on heritage hawker recipes and how they evolve across generations. She believes the best meals in Malaysia still cost under RM15, and that wok hei is non-negotiable.
