KUALA LUMPUR, June 7 — Convenience is now at our fingertips for Ramadan. Food entrepreneurs Root Cellar KL and Dish by Ili have launched their Buka Puasa Tiffin meals. The meals are only available for the weekdays though.

You have two choices for the meals (main and sides) each day that comes in small or large sizes. Some of their main dishes include items like Itik Confit Berempah Daun Kari and traditional dishes like Sambal Petai Udang or Daging Dendeng.
