Food are like women (even hotel rooms and other things),everyone has a different taste bud even for the same girl (talking about only WG here). One man's meat can still be another man's posion,hehehe...goes with age,characteristic of each man/woman etc etc...hehehe...and how far they wish to go seek.

Lucky you say Malays dont know how to steam fish to your taste and not Muslim,cos if you say that,i would have strongly disagree with you. Tho i dont take sea food,i happen to chance upon a chef who use to work for the Royal families in Brunei many years ago,he's a Chinese Muslim who marries an Indo girl. He says the same thing as you. His exact words was ,most Malays couldnt handle the steaming of a fish well enough. Remember the TV cooking show "Yan Can Cook" many years ago,they both learn their cooking skill from the same master chef. Your words on the steaming fish reminds me of him who cook some of the best Malay food which i tried in Sillypore,hehehe....fried rice w/o sea food inside an egg omelette was one of my favourite.
He's a freelance chef that travels a lot with his wife tho,should be of a retiring age by now.

I missed the wan tan noodle in my last trip...will be heading to the same Instar Coffee shop in my June trip to eat their wan tan noodle AGAIN,hehehe...not forgetting the "horfun" too,hehehe...

They are so close to where i will be staying.
I notice quite a handful of hand-made noodle stores in Batam which i could rarely see in Sillypore. Hand made noodles do not become soggy from absorbing too much water from the soup that use to cook it which made them very much more tastier (crispy chewy taste) than the machine made ones. So much for moving towards "productivity" in Sillypore in the food industry over the past years that might one day kills off the MOST good tasting local delicacy.
