Series 2: With an engaging combination of on-the-ground interviews, how-to cooking segments and an exploration of unique food culture in each state, this 6-part series aims to teach viewers how to recreate signature Malaysian flavours in their own kitchens
Each episode will include valuable travel tips for each state or territory, which will be presented by either Shaukani Abbas, an award-winning Malaysian tour-guide, or one of the guest travel contributors. All the recipes, travel articles and content will be summarised and presented in an eMagazine that accompanies the series.
Jackie M said, “My team and I are excited at the success of Series 1 and now we can't wait to showcase more insight into Malaysian food through Series 2”. “We can't wait to share internet sensations like the The Jetlag Warriors and Mark O'Dea who will be virtually exploring Malaysia's rich cuisine and culture” says the show's host and producer Jackie M.
She continues, “International Border closures means we have to wait a little longer before we can travel again, but this additional series gives everyone a virtual experience to plan one's travel to Malaysia”.
