So okay, I’ve checked out Tastefully Food Expo in MVEC earlier, and as a food lover, I must say that the expo does not disappoint. Yes. It was overly crowded and can be quite overwhelming. But most expos are just as crowded and here’s a quick guide on some not to be missed things in the expo:
1. Cooking demo. There are plenty of cooking demo over here in Tastefully Food Expo. But do check out the OKK booth, featuring all things vegetarians. You can sample loads of mock meat and learn how to cook em too.

Here’s a video of a Vegetarian Sweet and Sour Chicken dish being prepared.
Looks like the real deal? Well, it tastes like a real deal too.
2. Sampling the the cakes. Don’t forget to sample some cakes and cookies. There are plenty around but here’s one that I think is pretty good; Wonderful Cake House(Booth 253).
They are offering plenty of richly baked cookies from the oven
And delectable chilled cheesecakes
And yes while you are samplinv for pastries, drop by Glamour Crispy Puff ( Booth 237)Their puffs are to die for too.
3. For the health concious, do head over to the Canton Kitchen. They are offering the best of Ginger and Ginger Powder straight from the farm in Bentong.

4. Love all things cute and Japanese when it comes to food? Don’t forget to stop by ZP Food Import&Export Sdn Bhd (Booth 178 & 179)
There are loads of Japanese food and goodies over here. The best part? It is in Ringgit and doesn’t exactly cost that much. But Muslim consumers might need to be more alert here.
Not everything sold here are Muslim friendly, especially Ramen. So please read up the label and be extra mindful before you make a purchase.
5. Can’t live without instant noodles? They are not the healthiest. Why not try these gems from On Lee Noodles instead?
These noodles have no preservatives and made strictly with natural flavourings.
6. Do away with smoking and vaping and go for Dragonbreath nitrogen biscuits instead.
These biscuits are not your ordinary biscuits. But they turned you into a dragon.

Check this out. I’m smokin’, literally. The biscuits are not only cool to eat but deliciously fun too.
7. In need for some quick, hot and spicy meal?
Head over to D’Laksa (Booth 163) and help yourselves with a bowl of Asam Laksa. This one’s fantastic.
8. Need some caffeine fix?
Drop by Paparich (Booth 158) and grab some of your favourite 3 in 1 White Coffees. They have new ones that is sweetened with Stevia, a healthier alternative to sugar.
9. Wants some good nutty boost so that you can keep on going? Get yourselves some trailed nuts at Nutty Lovers.
These, my dear readers, are packed with energy.
10. Last but not least, remember to stay hydrated.
