I grew up in all Northern states of Malaysia and I come to appreciate the fact that it is not easy to find authentic Utara cuisine in Kuala Lumpur, but much to my delight, Hotel Royal Kuala Lumpur, the 20-storey stylish and contemporary city hotel has created a host of exclusive offers to celebrate the Holy Month of Ramadan; a traditional ‘Masakan Utara of Malaysia’ (Northern Cuisine) included four northern States of Malaysia which is Perlis, Penang, Perak and Kedah.
