Common Malaysian Favourite Food And Their Calorie Content

Common Malaysian Favourite Food And Their Calorie Content

Oh, Malaysia is definitely a food heaven. We have a looonnnnnggggg list of yummy food. My favourite would be nasi lemak ayam goreng. 

Sinful, i know but definitely the best. Others on the list is Penang Char Kueh Teow with lots of clams, Thosai masala, roti canai roti telur...etc. 

But do you know what is the calorie content of these foods? Some food have calories that exceeds your daily calorie intake with just one serving!  

How Many Calories Should You Consume Per Day? 

In general*:
  • Adult male: 2440 kcal/day
  • Adult female: 2000kcal/day
* depending on your activity level.

Or your weight (kg) x 30. i.e 50 x30= 1500kcal/day.

Let's See How Many Calories These Favourite Malaysian Foods Contains: 

1 Karipap = 128 kcal  (almost equivalent to 2 hard boiled eggs!)
Sarawak Kolo Mee = 467 kcal
Mee goreng mamak = 660 kcal
Char Kueh Teow = 629 kcal
Teh tarik = 83 kcal
Mee sup = 381 kcal

Fried rice (Malay style) = 742 kcal


Nasi lemak = 644 kcal, another 290 kcal if you add fried chicken

Roti canai + dhal = 360 kcal
Roti telur + dhal = 414 kcal
Wantan mee = 409 kcal

The bigger portion you had, the higher the calorie content. The more oil used in it's preparation, the higher the calorie count. Try to avoid eating and drinking more than 500 kcal per meal. 

So choose wisely and eat smart!


Teh tarik kurang manis anyone? Maybe not. maybe just plain water and I'll die as a skinny miserable cow. Gahahaha

Strawberry Park Resort Cameron Highlands - Secluded Sanctuary For Introverts

 Strawberry Park Resort Cameron Highlands - Introvert's Perfect Sanctuary Picture credit: https://strawberryparkresorts.com/ I'm always on the hunt for an introvert's getaway. As you can probably tell, I love misty mountain retreats. The tranquility, cool crisp air, breathtaking view, the seclusion are just 😍 perfect for introverting. I chanced upon Strawberry Park Resort while staying at SunLight Suite during my last trip to Cameron Highlands.  I was admiring the night view from Sunlight Suite's compound when I saw a well-lit area on the adjacent hill and remembered thinking to myself "Hmm, that looks like an expensive place....but I gotta check it out!" As it turns out, it wasn't that expensive considering the comfort, the facilities, and the invigorating environment.  Hotel Booking I booked through Agoda for a 3-day 2 nights stay, without breakfast for RM720+. Before my trip, I emailed the resort for booking confirmation, coz you know how sometimes A...
