KL central was NOT developed by the British. There was an old train station with the beautiful architecture that was built by the British. Please do not ascribe Malaysia s development to Britain. It s really annoying. Britain looted n colonized Malaysia n we build our country ourselves. So pls pls do ur research first.
Yap..british bawa cina dan india ke tanah melayu...mcm mereka bawa zionis jew ke palestien..untuk hancurkan melayu islam
Couldn't agree more 😊
American and their common history always going well together 😅
He meant the old railway station perhaps which is near kl sentral
I agree, Colonialism does help a people, it takes from them. Alhamdulillah, when He decrees a thing it is. He used them for a better, He controls everything.
Decades before colonizer came, the traders from east and west already contributed to the wealth of Malaya - Some of the Arab, Chinese, japanese and indian traders chose to settle down in Malaya because it was a rich country. The colonizer on the other hand, brought in the slaves from countries they have destroyed/robbed via opium war 1 & 2. Most of the workers/slaves didn’t even have money to eat (comparison with the traders who are filthy rich) but british manipulated their situation by using them to dig the best quality of gold from malaya.
What the colonized built near the KL library is only a tiny portion of what they have robbed from Malaya. That’s a fact that nobody could deny.
A fact indeed! Well written !!
slaves or workers? lmao get your facts right man...why do u think they brought workers in the first place? dont u think it would be cheaper to use the local workforce? nice spin try again....
Just like in the Philippines, indian, china, Indonesian, trade by sea to go here.. the Colonizer may did something but mostly enslaving the natives😅
@@NafGGMU do you think Malays will collaborate with colonizer to exploit their own lands? that why they need foreigners
@@NafGGMU british destroyed their motherland to the extend they had nothing to eat. Plus, china authority will shoot them upon returning because they worked for enemy. They were corpses! and british manipulated and paid them with marijuana (again) and sex from sex slaves, imported from the same place.
In Malaysia there's Malay nasi lemak, indian nasi lemak and chinese nasi lemak.
Chinese charkoaytiau, indian koaytiau goreng, malay koaytiau goreng basah.
One food has three variations. Different variations with different ingredients, changes from state to state.
This is the real diversity of our cuisine of different cultures.
In the old days, the Malays were also seafarers, sailing between the islands of the Malay Archipelago. They went as far as Sri Lanka and South Africa. That is why you find Malays in the two countries.
To all Malaysian commented here, please be nice in your response. Evan is not historian, he might as well do mistake even though he search the information first. Misunderstanding happened
Where is your manners & courtesy? Are you really a Malaysian who people says 'friendly'? Even if you're not, there is no possibility you like someone speak harshly to you. Watch your words & behave! Be nice & be wise.
Otherwise keep silent or you're free to choose & watch something else
That nasi lemak lady is probably a graduate. her conversation is flawless.
she and her husband (the owner) from F&B n Entertainment business before they opened this nasi lemak joint.Angah her husband & owner of this place used to be best bartender in KL
@@khaidir77 ah no wonder her interactions/customer's service is superb.
I hope you will hang around in Malaysia till Ramadhan (fasting month in March). During Ramadhan you will experience Ramadhan vibe and food culture that is different from what you are experiencing now.
The colonists did not bring in the chinese and indians to develop local economy. Its to loot the natural resources in Malaya namely tin/aluminum where the chinese were brought in to work in the mines, and rubber where indians were brought in to work in the rubber plantations. Malaya used to be one of the world's biggest producers of tin and rubber. These chinese and indian workers were brought in as low paid workers to work for the Brits, and tin and rubber were then looted to fund the british empire. Similar to what they did to India, India used to be one of the riches countries in the world.
Wow. i had no idea. that's not what they say in Britannica and some sites in English but I guess it's how it is with the Serbs. The person who writes history gets to decide how each country is portrayed. No way of me knowing this though. I apologize if i offended anyone, including you. Not my intent.
X perlu sensitif sgt ... Kira ok la tue .... setidaknya tahu juga membaca sejarah . Kdg2 sorg tu tersilap... UA-camr tu pun bnyk juga tahu sejarah pasal negara kite Malaysia 🇲🇾 . Cuma kesilapan die ckit je pun ..nk just cmtu ..warga Indonesia yg Konoha tu claim negara kita..bro senyap je

@@flyingfox3766perlu sensitive... tapi taklah melebih..
The way you eat and enjoy food in Malaysia is very tempting. All the time you seem relaxed and happy to be in Malaysia. I became your loyal viewer on your UA-cam channel. May your next days be full of happiness and blessings from God.
Very good history and cuisine research man, so far you are one of few foreign youtuber that do this well, we Malaysian really appreciated it. Many other youtubers just have no clue what is going on, where they're heading and what they eat and in the end making false assumptions about many things. Kudos to you.
Thank you so much :).
@@thatevanguy1480...very good my foot!!!
@@thatevanguy1480 Yes even when there are some mistakes, but we still appreciate that you learn about our history!
The nasi lemak you tried in Georgetown were by indonesians, can tell from their accent. While this lady is clearly a Malay with Malay accent even her English sounds very Malaysian. So this one should be more authentic Malaysian taste.
Malaya already have our own economy/way of life before the colonizer came. Colonization only robbed our wealth. They wont come just to help build economy of a country. Just telling you that the malays are not naive, and we are still enduring the total mess left behind by british.
Now your own government is robbing you, or is Najib suddenly British?
@@EGO0808 trust me, life in Malaysia is super good when you are privileged. Plus, the “robbing” scene is not as bad as western countries who taxed their citizens! 😂
The Siamese, the Portuguese, the Dutch, the English and the Japanese ... they all had their hands in destroying what was back then a rich and prosperous Malay archipelago. They came, they saw and they conquered. The Europeans came to colonize us for three main reasons, known as the 3G i.e GOLD, GLORY AND GOSPEL.
Right👍
The local favorites food in KL are awesome.
Food in Malaysia is like today u found most prettiest woman in the world, but tomorrow u will find another pretty woman.. again & again..👌👍
😅😅😅
The Malaysian dishes today have nothing to do with colonization. Get your facts right. The food today is from the local races in Malaysia, purely. Don't spread false news to other tourists and visitors.
Did you listen to what i said? I said after colonization, more Chinese and others were brought it, current Malaysians. They made kopitiams and new dishes. Did i ever give credit to the British? Dude, listen and watch the video before you judge. The video is about the effects of colonization on the culture -> more diversity -> more food and different type of restaurants/cafes.
@@thatevanguy1480 bull.you still try to shove your western narrative ,but we local know more than you,still not learn are you?,heck all around the world came from silk road for trading.Indian ,Chinese ,Arab ,African heck even Spain and Portugal.your narative that colonial boosting the local economy?typical aryan mindset.the Chinese and Indian that brought by British are left here to rot by British empire,they're are coolie and unwanted at that time.try searching the great famine in china,if they go back to their own county they will die at that time.but we Malay with open arm take them ,why? we human first regardless of color and religion. we in Nusantara region trading around the world way before 14 century,and the fusion of dish came at that time,not after the reintroducing the coolie from China and India.the western colonial just came later not to trade like other but to divide and conquer,any western youtuber ,not just you .please go down from your high pedestal,some of your guys assumption are way off
Sorry colonization didn’t bring the Chinese ,the Arabs to Malaya.. They already have established trade routes since 15th century.. Especially in Malacca and Singapore formerly known as Temasek..
@amok2686 "Economic incentives attracted Chinese immigrants, and by 1939 the Chinese accounted for about one-fourth of the state’s population. " Britannica. I Said they were there but the number increased.
As much as I agree with some of what you have said, I have to also agree with some of the comments. They are locals, so their information is not from encyclopedias or Wikipedia. Same as if they were to comment about the US contradictory to you, you would also dispute it. So let's be fair here. Peace ✌️
Next time u can try to react a Ramly Burger, it's realy nice taste ❤🤩
Nasi lemak Angah is one of my favorite nasi lemak. The lady and her husband Angah are the owner. Lovely couple
Hi Evan, another excellent Malaysian series video from you. Bravo. I m glad u really enjoyed the nasi lemak n its spicyness. The squid looks delicious. The lady that served u looks friendly, educated n exudes warm hospitality n friendliness to u. I like the chris tucker scene u included in your video, hillarious conversation he has with the other guy haha. His jail inmate hillariously gave a v horny look at him. so funny. Good job Evan
Thank you!❤️
Your pronunciation of Kopi Tiam was spot on, and you did a great job of introducing Malaysian food culture in general. And if you dig a little deeper, you'll start realising how much more food there is that is tied to different Chinese clans like the Hokkien, Hakka, Cantonese, Hailam and Teochew.😊
Thank you! :)
When was KL Sentral built?
16 April 2001
Kuala Lumpur Sentral Station (KL Sentral) is a transit-oriented development that houses the main railway station of Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia. Opened on 16 April 2001, KL Sentral replaced the old Kuala Lumpur railway station as the city's main inter-city railway station.
In Msia every race even chinese and indian can serve nasi lemak the most famous dish in Msia
The flavour and taste is different of course
But the authenticity is always back to the original race. As for me, if i wanna eat roti canai or chicken varuval, the mamak is the go to place.
If I wanna have white coffee or asam laksa, the chinese kopitiam is the best place to buy. And for rendang or gulai, never go other than malay restaurant.
Hi Evan. Enjoy your stay in Malaysia. Love all your videos. Peace from Cyberjaya. Done subscribing!
Thank you!
The cucumber, if you take it after a spoon of that rice with sambal , will neutralize the sambal heat a bit...
yummy,,brother,, You must be addicted to Malaysian food,,😂cow-cow
Wow nice video.. roti kanai❤
i ve been waiting for your video for days can u upload everyday?
Fun fact. Nasi lemak (nasi means rice, lemak means fat but in culinary world it is associated with coconut cream) is originally a breakfast dish but later on it became so popular that it is consumed even during lunch and dinner (some say it helps to make you sleep because coconut rice makes you sleepy at evening). Roti canai meanwhile is believed to originate from southern India. The word roti means bread and the whole canai in Malay means to flattened. But also some believe Canai is actually Chennai (a region in Southern India). The same roti canai you can find in Singapore but strangely it is called Roti Prata in Singapore.
1st, notification gang. Much ❤ watching now.
THIS IS THE MEAL FOR ALL MALAY KINGS.. THE MALAY FARMER JUST EATS TAPIOCA AND ANCHOVIES WITH SAMBAL.. THIS IS MOST DELICIOUS FOOD IN THE WORLD.
I disagree. If there's no colonization, Malaysia and Indonesia probably became one country now. Probably became one of world strongest country. You must think about history and from other perspectives that happened in malaysia and surrounding countries. Theres possibility for everything. One more, Tanah Melayu (Malaysia) since Malacca already one of world trade centre. When Portuguese came, they destroy our Malacca government at that time. You must see history all the way from that time.
Hidup Nusantara! 😊
Indonesia was Colonized by the Dutch for over 500 years. Thats why our country has over 200.000 Indonesians they have chosen for the Dutch and Christianity the KNILL Soldiers. Even from Ambon. The Merdaka Stayed in Indonesia. The US forced the Netherlands to leave Indonesia after WW2 in the 50’s
The colonials made Malaysia and Indonesia poor. These countries only improved in their standard of living when then achieved independence from the colonials.
And the spanish took the Phillipines...
Hi i am enjoying ur video while I am having roti canai at home now ❤
@@niknic1540 ❤️
Welcome to Malaysia evan....you must try roti sarang burung in malay name, English name roti bird nest.. innovation & modification by roti canai.
Admiral Cheng Ho came to Melaka during the Ming Dynasty. The Chinese did not invade and colonise Malaya, only the Europeans (Portuguese, Dutch and British) followed by the Japanese.
Canai bread is a dough that is spread to be flat. Usually in KL bread can be eaten with sauce dal but if in Kedah (northern state of Malaysia), canai bread is eaten with fish curry.
I think ... bomb !!!! Excessive delicious bro !!!!
Kaw- means something original, pure and best of the good. The word kaw-kaw can be used in different forms or situations. For example, "Give me a pack of ice coffee." This means I want more coffee ice coffee as well.
Many mean more. I give you an example. "You are angry with him." Meaning .. Extreme anger.
Mark my words, malaysia has the best delicious street food in the world
No doubt about it man👍🏻👍🏻
100 agree!!! I am afraid I’ll become Obese 😂😂😂
The lady boss is super nice!
The malays was also traders merchants and scholars besides being sailors and ship builders. Thy travelled far. The British came and looted. Malaysia has developed on its own thanks to our leaders.
KL SENTRAL TRANSIT SYSTEM is one of most busiest transit in ASEAN..
That Evan guy is like a hungry ghost! Everything is delicious for him. Anyway it is really enjoying to see him eat like nobody business😂😂😂 Chinese celebrate hungry ghost month on August.
The Dutch stayed in Malaka and the British forced the Dutch to leave it. So the Dutch went to Java/Indonesia and stayed their over 550 years till the US forced the Netherlands to leave Indonesia. My country would have never left Indonesia. They have made Bali a tourist “Paradise”. In the 50’s the Indonesian KNILL soldiers have chosen for the Dutch and converted to Christianity from Islam. Sad but true. The Merdaka was in war with the KNILL. So the Dutch lied to the Moluccans from Ambon. They Told them be a KNILL soldier and Ambon Will be INDEPENDENT. So the Moluccans have killed their even OWN Brothers (Merdeka) in mosque and small children and woman. They have drunk blood from them to get “high”. This black Black black history is deep under ground. Our Government don’t want to talk about that deep black history! But the hypocrites can only talk about Israel and WW2. So what happend in Malaysia and Indonesia has deep wounds. And it should never be forgotten.
Absolutely yummy 😋🤤
Restoran Yut Kee we call this it Jack’s Place here I always come here for the pork chops, the Hainan chicken chops and the Hainan fish chops. Plus they have excellent cake that you can bring home.
Its funny how you sprinkle british this british that onto everything. i had a good laugh... so that's just how you see Malaysia. However, just enjoy your stay Evan.
Btw, if you buy any coffee and mention "KAW" at the end of it.. they will make a stronger one. If 2 shot was standard.. they will add another 1 or 2 shot for you. Just so you know.
what do you mean? I am talking about what happened to Malaysia after colonization. I give credit to the Chinese and other ethnic groups for what was invented. The kopitiams and other. I am just stating facts when it comes to the British. The population of Indians and Chinese did increase after colonization, did it not? :)
When u wiped ur mouth with sambal NEVER use the same tissue on ur eyes😂..letter C in malay is always pronounced CH not K..so roti CHanai..i think u confused kl sentral with the old kl railway station which the british built..kl sentral is totally developed by malaysian in the late 90s
Your 2nd spot Yut Kee, i love alot and they're famous for their Kaya Rolls (absolutely delicious in my opinion) and their Roast pork which is only available during the weekend, their other dishes are really good aswell but doesnt compete with these 2 in my opinion
You might have to go back and try it out
Georgetown Ali Nasi Lemak Daun Pisang is all about the budget. It punches above its weight. Take fresh milk or citrus drinks when its too spicy. Cold water actually makes it worse.
Sauce from the claypot chicken rice has some ginger on it.
The last one is Roti Banjir (flooded) special. Thats a budget restaurant. You get more than what you paid for.
you use spoon for the rice. you one of us now. our food rocks !!!
My favourite nasi lemak outlet, their squid sambal is the ultimatum for me
Kaw kaw is a word from Chinese Hokkien, it means rich
Kopi kaw kaw = stronger coffee flavor
it seems like many locals luv ur content how bout you post daily video?
I'd like to but editing takes time lol. I don't have an editor :). In the future, I want to go to all the cities in Malaysia. Exciting stuff.
@thatevanguy1480 what makes u are different and acceptable is the way you appreaciate things food n etc... luv ur honest reaction .
not british colonists but since Malacca empire 15th century...u r not a good storyteller .
Dude Chinese already settled in Malaysia since 15th century.
Yes, i know. I did say that. I said more came in. I even said the approximate percentage. Went from 5% to over 20%. :)
Dude have you eaten Bak Kut Teh? The place of origin is Royal City of Klang. About 30mins drive from KL without traffic. Or you can take a train and reach in about 1 hour.
KL SENTRAL IS THE NEW TRAIN TRANSIT SYSTEM IN KL ..
After colonize many land, British food still like that 😅😅😅
Sir, try explore Malaysian village. You can find more traditional food.
We was colonized by 4 major empayar...
1-portugis ( Portugal)
2-deutch. ( Netherland)
3- British
4- japan
Parts of Malaysia history
The Portugis only ruled Melaka. And the Dutch also ruled Melaka. Except the Brits. But the Brits caused the most havoc and terror. We lost some Malay land and sultanates to the Siamese.
Bro Ivan...u can take train going to ipoh
I was about to go there when I was in Penang. But, I was too new. I'll eventually go to all cities :)
Roti canai. Canai is not pronounced as ‘car nai’. It is ‘char nai’. Almost all western travel bloggers say it wrong. 😅
Go kg baru nasi lemak its the best ...
@@MissfavlousChanel saved it. Thanks!
British came bought Chinese and Indians to build economies fast ? 😂 i liked that
Half true,since ancient times the Malays are merchants, sailors, gigantic ship owner, rulers,in monsun months they farms,during other calm sea months they fish,sails to other island or mainland to sells spices,metals,many more.
Hmm we actually influenced British Food , there were no variety in spices found in europe , hence Melaka back then was the trade central for spices and with more spices the less bland the food is
You should try the Village Park Nasi Lemak and order with their fried chicken. KL central was recently built. But if you want a British built railway station, you should visit the Sultan Abdul Samad building beside the merdeka square. Cao cao(Kaw kaw) is a chinese word meaning very thick or concentrated.
Thank you for the recommendations. I know KL wasn't built by the British but attempted to start something. Malaysians made this amazing place. I hope i was clear lol
Village Park is overrated. Beloved by the middle class surbanites of PJ who have no taste when it comes to Malay food.
Locals don't usually visit food centres in tourist areas because these areas are for tourists and tend to be more expensive and tasteless. For traditional and unique food, we go outside the city. You need transport to get around. There is no shortage of such videos in YT. What you are filming is mostly in tourist areas.
I will eventually cover those :). I'm still new here.
😮😮😮😮
where were you tonight?! if not raining come we have a teh tarik at mamak restaurant
Kaw means strong or thick (depending on context)
While in Malaysia we have 2 version of ROTI CANAI..Malay version eve nthe roti alredy cold but the texture still soft if compare with indian version after cold the texture a bit tough@hard..
Do visit melaka and the oldest functioning church of st peter there. Kl also has some nice churches like holy rosary near the old kl railway station
Do you notice that all food handlers wear caps and hand gloves? The surrounding area and toilets are clean. All food handlers must get jabbed. These are the requirements for applying for a food trading license. The health authorities will come to inspect very often. Tourists are safe to consume foods of Malaysia in public. In any food centre, there is a cleanliness report issued by the authority and it is hanged on the wall. A or B or C where A is the most cleanest.
southest india - more to chapattis
malaysian bread - roti canai.
2 different things, and can request for chapatti too in malaysia. most kf the mamak (indian muslim) restaurant have it.
My suggestion nasi lemak maklong merab is a best
Kopi Kau / Cao... strong coffee
Indian pancakes should be made first to taste good, and they should also be made into square shapes to be crispy.
i would recommend u change the spelling of Na*i lemak to Nasi Lemak. I don't think that spelling be friendly towards algorithm and also, it's the correct spelling
0:19 roti canai its prounounce is CHanai like CHannel
12:10 Like Angelina jolie in her prime….omigosh😂😂😂
the food looking like Angelina Jolie in her prime 😂
I prefer Nora Danish in her prime😂

Hi Ethan, by end of this month I bet you will be loosing your six packs abs and you about to shop new clothes. Hahahaha. Just kidding.. Enjoy your time here and enjoy malaysian cuisine. As a malaysian i can proudly say our food culture is second to none.
Indian, peranakan, chinese nasi lemak taste different compared to malay nasi lemak
Try to fimd a local to help you out during your stay in Malaysia
U must try nasi lemak wanjo or buung hantu... Real nasi lemak
Other than connections, culture(forced, unwanted not needed), maybe some standards and privileges (also a forced), britain has nothing to do with malaysia's development. Malaya was a peaceful country with great oversea businesses and a bright future in economy, until the european came, stole everything from us charge taxes with guns and cheap promises. We were doing just fine.
So don't ever say britain's colonization played a big part in the development of Malaysia, such ignorance and low standard won't do for a cheap clickbait and views...shame on you
You're ridiculous. I said after British colonization, the population of Chinese and Indians grew, which is a verifiable fact. The video is about the effect of colonization on the culture. Did you even watch? coming here, accusing me of cheap clickbait? lol. you want no title on the video? how is the title clickbait? shame on me? haha you're so ridiculous. Get some class and have some respect.
2:13 It's Nasi Lemak NOT Nazi Lemak 🤦♂
In malay language, letter C is not pronounced K. Like cat or car. Because the letter K is there for a purpose. Instead C is pronounced like how you say Cherry or Chill.
Similar to Italians saying Lancia (its not Lansia) or seicento or cinquecento.
Roti canai is not pronounced kanai. 😂 but its ok, we still can.understand you. But it is still incorrect.
bro you keep saying georgetown and I just wish I know what Georgetown you're referencing lol
Nasi lemak oregener yg di jual orang melayu di Kampung Baru kerana nasi lemak adalah asal dari orang melayu. Nasi lemak dari kedai yg di buat oleh orang Cina tidak ori.
Roti 'canai'
'Ca' sounds like 'cha'.
@@kamarudinhj.dolmoin8578 thanks
Hey man.. Gotta correct you on certain things. The brit didn't develop nor build this place.. Most of this places have already existed before British set foot. It was build and develop my Malaysians.. And by Malaysians I mean the Malays.. Chinese.. And Indians.. British didn't do much when they were here..
Ya. I know. I didn't give them credit. Kopitiams, kl central and other things I mentioned...all made by Malaysians. It's just that during the British colonization, more immigrants came in, who are now malaysian. That's the only reason I mentioned it
@thatevanguy1480 sure man.. No worries.. I was actually mentioning about KL sentral.. You can say 99% of the development you see in Malaysia.. Particularly in KL were the brain Child of our former PM Tun Mahathir.. 4th Prime Minister who reign for 22 years.. So yeah.. Brits left us with nothing.. But maybe the addition to multi racial and also few tips on how to govern..
Roti canai. 'C' is 'Ch'. As in most words in the language. 'K' is pronounced like 'C or K'. Correcting you before you further butcher any more words. Happy Holidays
Please oh please don't wipe your eyes with the same tissue you used to wipe your mouth with after sambal eating sambal. ✌️😁
I prefer the salty taste of sambal. Some sambal is too sweet.
Oh, the sweet sambal is common ha? i thought this place was special. but it wasn't too sweet here. My fav one so far!
Your subtitles spell "nasi" with a "z". 😂
The chinese also have wild boar nasi lemak😂
Enjoy your day bro!
datang ambil hasil bumi tanah melayu bawa balik hasil ke negara mereka. sumbangan mereka ada bawa pendatang dari china dan india dan paksa melayu terima mereka. kebaikan ada sikit je. banyak masalah yang timbul. sejarah tanah melayu tidak di jajah semua?
If you stay another day.. your tongue getting malay taste
