Malay, Chinese, and Indian cuisines are common; it is not unusual to see these types of restaurants around the country, whether upscale or of the more affordable variety. Moreover, in recent years Brunei has seen a rise in popularity of many different cuisines, such as Italian and Japanese. Sushi, in particular, has become quite popular.
