  • About

Laden with bags of food and pots and pans, Loh Sye Moi arrives at our hotel apartment in Kuala Lumpur with her niece, Loh Kwai Lai, known also as Lee. Loh Sye Moi has come to demonstrate some Hakka dishes. The Hakka are the second-largest Chinese dialect group in Malaysia, where they are known as Khek.

Lee is as excited as I am to learn about Hakka food. Although her grandmother and father (Loh’s brother) are Hakka, she doesn’t know how to cook many Hakka dishes. Her mother is half Cantonese and half Babba (Chinese-Malay) and cooks most of the meals at home.
