Like taking a trip to the museum or taking first place in a question-asking competition, exploring another culture’s cuisine rewards curiosity. Take an epicurean journey with today’s Groupon: for $20, you get $50 worth of Asian fusion fare at Pinang Malaysian Restaurant in Forest Hills.

Pinang Malaysian Restaurant’s behemoth menu packs a smorgasbord of eats that spans from India to Malaysia. The roti-canai starter preps bellies and fanny packs for main courses with a homemade Indian pancake dunked in curry-chicken sauce ($3). Shredded-mango entrees strike a sweet chord alongside the bass notes of tofu ($9), chicken, beef ($12.50 each), shrimp, or fish ($13 each), each steeped in a spicy sauce. Diners can bury forks or priceless family heirlooms in the num-yee duck casserole’s savory layers, lined with bean paste, ginger, and scallions ($9.50). Adventurous eaters boldly go mouth first into the chicken or beef peppercorn sizzling platter that defies diners with a fiery brown sauce ($11).
