Cardi B is undeniably one of the biggest artists in the world, which is why it only makes sense that Malaysians were excited when curry puffs, fried popiah, pau and fried mee hoon were spotted on her Instagram Stories.
A Cardi B Instagram fan account managed to save and showcased the Instagram stories.
Malaysians were, of course, quick to question Cardi’s whereabouts based on the foodage (food + footage lol) she posted.

It apparently turns out that at least one of these dishes can actually be found in the Dominican Republic and Trinidad and Tobago where the rapper’s parents are from, but in different variations.
For example, the curry puffs could possibly be empanadas (filled with meats, vegetables and cheese) that look surprisingly similar!
We couldn’t really find anything that could relate pau, popiah and mee hoon to the Dominican Republic or Trinidad and Tobago, but hey, at least that means that our Asian food is so good that even foreign A-listers can’t resist them.
To any Dominican Republicans or anyone from Trinidad and Tobago who by chance stumble upon this, do let us know what these dishes are!
Now we know that if Cardi B ever comes to Malaysia, she’ll definitely enjoy the food!
