PETAI 

Amila Ismail

Petai is synonymous with Malaysian society. If they call petai, already imagined the smell unpleasant, for those who eat it certainly would smelled something..that's why many who avoid this food.

BUT! I'm not ok.

Petai is a my favorite food. Want know what reason? Because I did not know.

It smells make me want eat it. I 100% loved it!

When sitting hostel, a little limited diet. Reason?

In terms of money, I can not eat a large meal same like at home.

I remember when the holiday week, I was back home in Kuantan.The first thing i do is cooking. A lot of food I cook for my mom and my brother. One day i request to my mom to make sambal udang petai.
