**The sarawak laksa that will be part of the popular chef's food market will be from the crowd favourite Choon Hui Cafe in Kuching, Sarawak.**
While some Malaysians might disagree with this, four dishes from Singapore, including the claypot rice, white pepper crab, Hainanese chicken rice and char kway teow are part of Bourdain's wish list too

Also, did we mention that [Penang's char kway teow was in listed in Huffington Post's](http://says.com/my/lifestyle/penang-s-char-kway-teow-highlighted-in-huffington-post-19-local-delicacies-story) listicle on best 19 local delicacies that are a must-try!
