Majestic Rojak

Rojak (a dish where bite size pieces of fruits and vegetables along with a few cuttefish at times is mixed together with a sweet shrimp paste and peanut concoction) is one of Papa Lee's all time favourite! He can gobble up the whole lot all by himself and gladly repeat the procedure day after day if no one stops him!

When it comes to rojak, Majestic Rojak has been hailed as the best in Penang! So we HAD to try it. We bought a packet back and when pouring the shrimp paste mixture over the fruits, we discovered that the paste was very thick and goo-ey, almost hard unlike the slightly more liquid ones that we usually eat. We also find the paste on the sweeter side. I suspect the paste has a whole tonne of sugar in it which explains why it is less liquid and sweeter!

Can't remember exactly what else was in the Majestic Rojak but there was definitely turnip, pineapple, cucumber, mango and cuttlefish. A small portion now costs RM4.00 and a bigger one RM5.00 which may be slightly overpriced but expected where it is located and with the name it carries.

So if you're a fan of thick goo-ey, sweet rojak, head on to:
