Restaurants in large hotels offer international cuisine from such countries as Japan, Korea, France and Italy. Street food is widely available throughout Malaysia. Alcohol is fairly expensive in Malaysia. Muslims are forbidden to drink alcohol, so it may be necessary to head to the hotels or Chinese liquor stores for beverages. Wine, although expensive, even by the glass, may not have a good flavor, due to the tropical heat.
Beer is fairly common, yet is often served un-chilled.
Tiger and Guinness Stout are also among the most popular and least expensive beers. Malaysia-travel.org is part of the Asia Pacific Travel Infosite Network , offering the most comprehensive online information on the culture, activities and people of this great country.
