KUALA LUMPUR, April 23 (Bernama) -- Locals and visitors to Hulu Selangor are invited to a "kenduri rakyat" (people's feast) here on Saturday where a sumptuous spread of Malaysia's favourite food and drinks awaits.
The Nasi Lemak-Teh Tarik Fiesta and 1Malaysia Food Heritage programme, organised by the National Heritage Department, will take place at the Kuala Kubu Baharu Fire and Rescue Department's parade ground between 10am and 6pm.
The department's director, Prof Emeritus Datuk Siti Zuraina Abdul Majid said the fiesta would also feature food from various communities including those from Sabah and Sarawak.
"It's going to be a truly 1Malaysia food fiesta," she told Bernama.
The programme is aimed at showcasing Malaysia's food heritage apart from strengthening the bonds among the people.

Information Communication and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Dr Rais Yatim and wife Datin Seri Masnah Rais will also be there.
There will also be exhibitions by agencies of the ministry including a snake display by the National Museum as well as cooking demonstrations of Sabah and Sarawak traditional food.
