The agriculture section of the Embassy of Malaysia in Japan said April 22 it will hold a special fair, “Taste of Malaysia,” with Malaysia’s government tourism office at the ANA Crowne Plaza Kobe from June 17 to 30 to showcase Malaysian cuisine.
The event will also include a tasting for industry participants featuring Malaysian seafood, aiming to raise awareness in the Japanese market and expand business.
The fair will offer a buffet of traditional dishes, including seafood imported directly from Malaysia, nasi lemak (rice cooked in coconut milk), chicken satay and beef rendang.
During the event, tastings will be held for HoReCa operators — hotels, restaurants and catering services — and food-industry buyers to present Malaysian seafood in greater detail. Japanese dishes will also be served alongside Malaysian cuisine to suggest a wider range of uses. Organizers said they plan to create opportunities for direct exchanges with Japan’s food industry to support future deals and business cooperation.
