You can eat stingray bones 😊... Soft bones right 😊😍👌
the stingray u can eat the bone. .
Cameron Highlands is the name of the hilly region. It has a number of small towns, notably Ringlet, Tanah Rata, Brinchang and Kuala Terla. Tanah Rata and Brinchang are in thevtouristy area. So when recomending the restarant you visited, it is necessary to state the name of the town for convenience.
Bro 😅 don't you know we can eat stingray bone right ? I mean that was the best part for me
Stingray is sea chicken
Nice video beautiful vibe thank you for sharing... the restaurant looks interesting with plenty of mouth watering cuisines to choose from...a little crowded though... Penang is surely Worth visiting right?🎉
Hope that you guys have had a good time with your exploration in Penang, and also a pleasant stay.
Where are guys from? I like your vlog 😊
Welcome to the food capital! Try Ali Nasi Lemak Daun Pisang (Nasi Lemak with content of your choosing packed in Banana Leaf), 888 Hokkien Mee (Its Prawn noodles, Penang calls it Hokkien mee instead), Hameed Pata Mee Sotong, Penang Famous Samosa, Penang Road Famous Laksa, Chong Charcoal Seafood Char Kuey Teow (Go for duck egg. The best for me), Restoran Ramzan for indian cuisine and rare duck curry, Duck Blood Curry Mee, Aunty Gaik Lean's Old School Eatery for Peranakan Nyonya cuisine. Nasi Kandar (indian mixed rice) is big in Penang as well. Try Hameediyah and Deens Maju. Most of the Penang food is spicy. Go for wanton noodles, hokkien mee (black version), cantonese style noodles, chicken rice, pau (chinese white bun), glutinous chicken rice for non spicy options.
17:13 . ..what !! . . Enjoy 🤩🎉
Do visit the oldest church of assumption and the diocese museum of penang in georgetown as well as St anne basilica
Cantiknya gigi putih gila . . 1 dalam sejuta .
TQ Melanie for visiting Malaysia..have a nice stay
Melanie 👋 lama tidak upload
Doing research before riding MRT is over-rated.
I enjoy your vlog ❤❤❤😊
the rice is soaked in tea leaves, making it green
Expensive price in Cameron Highlands
The rice is just too green, nearly turned dark green. Should be very light & clear green. Thats Peranakan (Baba Nyonya) style of nasi lemak prepared with coconut milk & Pandan leaves as colorings.
The green rice color come from pandan leaf. There is also another popular Malay dish called Nasi Kerabu where the rice is blue, the blue color was from flower ⚘
Amazing informative video beautiful vibe thank you for sharing..the restaurant the place look cool the food looks amazingly delicious 😋🎉
@@HappyGolfCart-uz3ft thank you I’m so happy you love the vibe I’m happy to share this information! Yess the food was super yummy! 😋
Sounds great ... probably U two should try the delicious creamy Yummy king of fruits in Malaysia ... The super amazing durienn 😋 😅🎉
Green on the rice is coloring. Possibly from pandan leaf. Standard nasi lemak rice color is white.
@@makkienleong6865 oh wow pandan leaf that’s so cool! The mystery has been solved 💚
@@MelanieGuintu Another example of it is Nasi Kerabu. It is blue or yellow. This one is herbal and from east malaysia.
That bright green colour is definitely not original pandan leaf ...too much of pandan leaf will make your rice bitter....
Hope that you guys have had a good time at the Boh Tea Plantations Cafe in Cameron Highlands.
Thank you Yasin always a pleasant experience when you have Nasi Lemak! 😍
@@MelanieGuintuWonderful. The nasi lemak looked so good. Normally, it's white, the green color probably comes from the essence of pandan leaf. Usually a twisted pandan leaf is used to make rice dishes more aromatic. The pandan leaf essence with its green color is normally used for the local Malaysian desserts. 😀
@ oh wow I love that! Delicious pandan essence that is why I love trying new Malaysian cuisines! 💚
@@MelanieGuintuWonderful. Besides green in color, you can sometimes see nasi lemak in blue, from the butterfly pea flower, some Nyonya Cafes like it blue. Have a great weekend. 😀
@@Yasin_Affandi wow that sounds so beautiful butterfly pea flower! That’s amazing thanks for letting me know! 🦋
POV: yummy tea & the place looks cosy❤
yay it was! lots of yummy food too 😋
Full of indians😂
Sorry for the slow service. There must be a better exppanation for this. I hope they can improve their service
the pine trees are the origins of sub tropical pine trees which are available in the highlands.. This Tanah Rata = Highland Valley of Cameron, There are hundreds of Vagetable Farms higher at Brinchang to Kampung Raja..
Omg I would absolutely love to visit the hundreds of vegetable farms at Brinchang and Kampung Raja!
It is heaven ..cool weather ..small city seround by jungle.
It is like heaven! A true beauty 🤍
That ticket was expensive 😮
Ohh really? Maybe I got foreigner price haha...
Breakfast eat Malay foods. Lunch eat Chinese foods Dinner eat Indian foods. =Malaysia ! Enjoy multicultural environment in Malaysia ! 🎉🎉🎉❤ 🎉🎉🎉❤
Supper....lepak mamak.😊 .
Yes that's true! Malaysia is beautifully multicultural!
@@mohdzaki1089 Super!! But what does lepak mamak mean? 😊
@@MelanieGuintu it mean chill at indian muslim restaurant !😋
Welcome to Mlysia guys..Cameron Highland is nice green cool place..hahaha..TQ for visiting
Yes so cool and green! It was beautiful thank you!
You don't need any sauce to enjoy banana roti....bcoz it is a sweet dessert on its own
Oh yess banana roti is really sweet on it's own you're right!
Jungle in Malaysia in general is pretty thick and you can easily got lost..also mossy forest is one of a kind ..you don't find it anywhere else in Malaysia...definitely a treasure to our jungle...that's why you need permit and guide to go to the top of the mountain
Ah I see! Yes it is the safe thing to hire a guide through the top of the mountain I would really love to do that!
This video shots during Ramadhan? Last year? There are many routes for hiking in Cameron Highlands but if you want to hike spot like mountain Brinchang its not easy hike, more than 2000 metres, need permit for safety reason, people do get lost.
Oh wow more than 2000 meters! Mt. Brinchang at the top must be have spectacular views!
SDN is Sendirian (Private), BHD is Berhad (Limited). The usual company stuff. Perhentian Islands is closed right now. It will be open on March 2025.
Oh good to know thank you!!! OMG Perhentian Islands is closed?! Why?
@MelanieGuintu Monsoon season. Rough sea. You can try asking around on mid February but still depends on mother nature.
@@makkienleong6865Wow I see! Okay so it looks like monsoon season is around December-January!
@@MelanieGuintu it's November to February. Just check the weather forecast and the that place before you go there.
@makkienleong6865 ah good to know! Thank you 🥰
Don't think you should go to the plantation alone.. I think there might have snakes in there
OMG snakes! Yes I need to be careful! I'm not sure if the dogs can do anything about snakes.
Do visit St Micheal church, oldest church in ipoh if you go to ipoh. The grave of sybil kagiathsu is there in the graveyard next to the church. She's a ww2 hero and the only female Malaysian to get the British medal of honour
Oh wow a female Malaysian to get the British medal of honor I wonder what she did? That's amazing!
@MelanieGuintu she saved the locals and dealt heavy beatings along with her husband when they refused to give information to te Japanese
Do visit the convent school, one of the first buildings in Cameron highland at tanah rata
Oh wow I haven't heard about the convent school thanks for the recommendation!
There are other places to eat.. and the term slow is relative. Besides, you've only been there once. Judgy! Americans?
Yes there are other places to eat! Unfortunately I paid at the counter and I didn't know they were going to take 45 minutes. Yes the term slow is relative yet when you also have locals complaining about how slow the service is, you're allowed to say the service is slow. Judgy, Americans? Lol so basically if a basic McDonald's order takes 45 minutes and trash is stacked like a junkyard, and people are complaining, no one should say anything? It's videos like this that help businesses improve and get better.
do they only have one member of staff or something? lol
It felt like it!! lol
That's what you get for eating there! 🤮
Hah seriously right? I rarely eat at McDonalds but this was the only place open nearby when we drove to our adventure in the morning. We thought it would be fast food...
Hope that you guys have had a good time and a pleasant stay in Cameron Highlands.
Thank you Yasin Cameron highlands was so beautiful we loved it!!
@MelanieGuintu Wonderful. 😀
This place is so underrated!! 🔥
Let it be.
@@Mohdnajmi-tg2iu Whisper words of wisdom...let it be
😅 at least you enjoyed it! ❤
haha you're right!! 😋
Awesome. Only thing is you should not have used the sapphire preferred as it only gives you 1x for that transaction. You should have used a venture x card or any other 2x on every day spend card.
