Sure, trying out new dishes when you travel is always a fun part of your itinerary. But there's only so much cheeseburger and avocado toast you can take before the rice and sambal withdrawal symptoms start kicking in...
Because let's face it - nothing beats our food back home! Which is why we can't help but miss these things when we travel:
4. Starting the day with some authentic nasi lemak tepi jalan
And not the kind you eat with chopsticks......
6. How you can always get that specific kind of sambal to go with your dish
9. How there's just SO MUCH FLAVOUR in everything!
We don't need "hints" of this and "subtle notes" of that. We need in-your-face flavours!
10. All the heavenly scents
Give us all the durian, petai, and belacan!
13. Not having to pay so much for just a burger
And they even deliver to you and everything!
14. Basically, not having to pay so much for food in general
And they sometimes come with free selfies too!
16. And the best part: Having all your favourite foods available at all hours of the day!
