Having lived in Malaysia for 10 years doing my Bachelors and Masters in Gombak, i can attest that Malaysian food is to die for. From the char kuey teow to nasi goreng to satay to roti canai and everything else in between, it is absolutely delicious.
Price is expensive for Malaysia but Pavillion Mall is a premium mall with Gucci, LV, Versace, Hermes, etc so the price point matches the location. Might not be for everyone but it’s a great business opportunity for Nigel and judging from the review the food is pretty decent compared to what over celebrities have put out
@@wokgod for sure, as I said price point is on par for what you expect in Pavillion, obviously will be expensive for locals and compared to eateries in other parts of town
@@joshf-w9602 why are u comparing locals eateries to a restaurant in pavillion? have u tried din tai fung? or paradise dynasty? u gona shit brix after looking at their fried rice price
@@alanko1987I dont think HE is comparing it, he stated that the price is what expected for Pavilion. There are worse on the internet, who says it is expensive without considering the context
He knows what he is doing. He could have easily come out with a higher end restaurant charging a lot of money but with this he really becomes a contender for an international chain restaurant. The food looks great and very affordable dishes.
So cool that these guys flew all the way over there to do this! And dimsimlim knows his food too. I made his honey chicken from his website recently. The best I ever had!
Superb Malaysians supporting each other. When I’m back to Malaysia early next year I’ll definitely be going there too. Enjoy yourselves. Sending you all hugs from Italy. Malaysia Boleh 🎉🎉🎉 True Malaysian spirit ❤
As someone who studied in Malaysia, the prices are not surprising especially that it's located at Pavilion, do not expect to pay less than RM30 for any food there 😂😂 stick to your usual mamak places if you can't afford it
@@MiguelGonzalez-vz6qiMamak stalls or restaurants are those serving Indian food, most popular ones are usually Roti Canai / Prata served with fish/chicken/dhal/lamb curry. Coupled with Teh Tarik (pulled tea) the taste is heavenly, not to mention cheap and good!!! 👍🏻
@@MysteariciaMamak is delicious but it's usually full during breakfast times unless your in Masjid Jamek area. roti canai with daal or roti susu + nescafe Panas or teh Tarik, heaven.
Wow! YumYum boss review is highly believable. Supporting a fellow Malaysian Chinese this way is refreshing to watch. For the first time I can see Uncle Roger was a bit nervous😂😂😂
Uncle Roger fine-out easy to criticise restaurant but much harder to run one well. I wish him well, my best advice to him is to MAKE SURE the food is the best it can be. Then the rest takes care of itself.
theres been improvement compared to its opening day, ill say hes doing well so far. its still crowded most of the time i go there after all this time. but well see after a year or two thats where the real challenge are after all the hype dies
Even the food court at ground floor are priced similar or above , so I don't know why some people complain about its pricing, its located in pavilion not some outskirt mall
Same people would go to New York or London and complain the prices are too high for them, it's just the way it is in the middle of big cities across the world.
That's pretty normal for a group of four having a single dish + simple dessert at a regular "non fancy" restaurant here. Prices for a regular meat/fish/chicken dish is ~$30-35 per person, ~$25-30 for salad/vegan and ~$15-20 for starters and desserts at your average local restaurant.
nice to see DimSimLim in KL....i am local but have not joined the queue to try Unc Roger fried rice....just too many options with much less hassle and Pavillion prices....thnk for the review...motivated a little to make my way to there soon...
I want to go to Malaysia in a few years, so I really appreciate that you and your friends tried everything on the menu! You guys are funny, I subscribed!
RM30 is like $10 AUD. Is more cheaper than fried rice with proteins on small plate in food court that cost $13 which is RM37. Average restaurant fried rice cost me $17 which is RM48. Sorry to say that will be expensive for foreigners if coming to straya. 😅
550 for the whole menu sounds reasonable. I converted it to my local currency and compare to the total cost of my local fast food and it has a bigger bill
$132.33 USD for ALL THAT FOOD?! Here in rural northern California, that's almost exactly enough to buy all 11 chicken plates from our local Chinese place. If you go for beef or God forbid, prawn dishes, you're outta luck. These are just the combo plates that come with steamed/fried rice or chow mein. Not to put the local guys down at all, because the food's great and this IS California after all. $12 for a combo is pretty good even up here. It's hard to see exactly how many items were on that menu but Step 2 has 10 items, they considered the spag & cheese another item, and you have choices of your rice and noodles. Overall, especially for a posh mall, this seems like a good deal.
The reason why the price is high because his restaurant is located at Pavalion Mall. A big city where the cost of living is skyrocket so that's why the food price here is high compared to small town or outskirt mall
@@dalaxdercrisper957 But the person you're replying to is saying the prices arent high...A whole menu here in the US would run you who knows how much, 191 is so cheap
It's 550 of THEIR local money. It's a poverty ridden country and the USD is worth a lot more there - making this meal seem cheap... but for the locals, it's actually on the pricier side.
if you're still in Malaysia, you should find Uncle Soon Fried Rice and try THAT. i'd love if you can give your opinion and ratings between Uncle Roger and Uncle Soon.
Hi DimSimLim, please come to Coventry Village, Perth to review authentic cuisine/ street food from Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Philipines, Bhutan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, China, India, Pakistan, Middle Eastern, European, Western and more.. under one roof. This place is packed with people from morning till during lunch time and almost impossible to get a car park on weekends
Upper middle class versions of malay food for middle class people. Best eat the real thing for a quarter the price at local little restaurants and stalls that aren't in luxury brand shopping malls. It's the sort of restaurant Jamie Oliver and his friend would frequent.
I went to Uncle Roger new Restaurant two weeks ago; queue time was only 25 minutes fuuyioh! Okra fries were sold out, though. Then I went to buy a shirt, and the nice lady almost sold me one that said I was a niece haayiah. Narroowly avoided desaster, but the food was good. Special egg fried rice with a lot of MSG, so good. Took a picture next to the virtual Uncle Roger as well. Fun day!
Malaysian comedian Jason Leong said that all Malaysians love to earn money in SGD. I am waiting for Uncle Roger to cross the causeway. Taking notes: I think I wanna try the spaghetti with cheese and satay fried rice like you recommended.
You wanna try Singapore's OG Rapper Sheikh Haikal's Hainanese Chicken Rice "Hai Ge Ji" and Singapore Idol Taufiq Batisah's Chix Hot Chicken in Singapore?
i used to watch your video on instagram , it taste a lot better than uncle roger's food LOL. By the way, do you know there are a lot of people complaining the fried rice have no wok hei? and not a single fried egg and minced meat for a RM18 fried rice
Thanks for coming! Can’t believe the noodles are your favorite haiyaaaa 😂

$132 usd for an entire menu isnt that expensive at all but i understand how it is expensive there.
For That area of the world it's not cheap, but hey, you can literally get Michelin star food for a couple of dollar.
@@lvthud yea the whole Michelin star thing is so stupid. "oh look you get a pretty star " just because some pretentious a-hole likes the food lol
A Cheesecake Factory family meal costs $140+ nowadays so it doesn’t surprise me
It is indeed expensive for us Malaysians, especially considering how the minimumwage in Malaysia is around $355
That's pretty normal for a group of four having a single dish + simple dessert at a regular "non fancy" restaurant here.
Prices for a regular meat/fish/chicken dish is ~$30-35 per person, ~$25-30 for salad/vegan and ~$15-20 for starters and desserts at your average local restaurant.
4:00 The drip guard on the ice cream is pretty smart.
Thank you for reviewing.
Thanks for trying all plus giving reviews....😊❤you guys

The editing in this video was really good “I like fried chicken” 😂
I met him in person. Should have asked if he was selling some yum yum.. so i can finally try some.
I love how Uncle Roger gives so many smaller youtubers the benefit of his clout! :)
quite a num of ppl complain about the price
but i think if, youre eating at pavillion how cheap are u expecting it to be there
RM30 is like $10 AUD. Is more cheaper than fried rice with proteins on small plate in food court that cost $13 which is RM37. Average restaurant fried rice cost me $17 which is RM48. Sorry to say that will be expensive for foreigners if coming to straya. 😅

The col is way lower in Malaysia but so are the wages
That was a pretty dope vid probably the best I’ve seen of this Restaurant react yet!!
I love Uncle Roger 👍. Great review, lots of fun.
Salute to wok-god for showing respect to uncle Roger! From video intro to tasting the food without harsh comments! Mad respect!🫡
I'm glad he's there to manage his restaurant
I should not be watching this weejio while hungry. Everything looks so delicious!
This was so much fun to watch. First day opening would taste ok. But once all the chef and everybody get better at things. it will get better. FuiyoH!
So great to see that the food is so good! Thanks, guys!
THE PROBLEM ITS... HE OPEN IT AT PAVILLION THATS WHY ITS PRICY
wow the food looks great for such good prices, i swear any of those meals would cost $17-24 AUD easy
This is so wholesome. Good job guys
No way the enitire menu was $191. Uncle Roger really made sure that the price was good and that everyone got to eat. What a good person.
The reason why the price is high because his restaurant is located at Pavalion Mall. A big city where the cost of living is skyrocket so that's why the food price here is high compared to small town or outskirt mall

The rental price in Pavalion mall is insane. Not sure why he chose such an atas place to open his first restaurant, lol.
Uncle Roger can’t disappoint 🎉💜

Not Siti Nurhaliza's song playing inside the restaurant 😍🥰
So inspiring! I would like make a fried rice video because of you uncle Roger & dimsimlim 😊
Flying to Malaysia…on 9/11….. Yall are crazy for this!
Unagi looked crazy🔥🔥🔥
I came to your UA-cam channel, because of unkle Roger
I'm surprised Uncle Roger didn't have a free rice cooker raffle.
Man can you please post more 😢 watched your ted talk and I swear these shorts aren’t enough time.
Review Jaime Oliver’s restaurant next. That is a must!
Will try for sure when go to Malaysia.
do they fry chicken in peanut oil, vegetable, canola?
Bro I’m telling you Malaysian food will explode someday. It’s got everything going for it
Welcome homeee! Since you're back - give Honey in the Rock PJ a try!

Thank you for showing every dish on the menu 😂😂😂
you need to review Jamie olivers restaurant at the airport in kl
1:10 second hand embarrassement💀
the prices are very modest it seems for a place he know would have a line out the door - good on him
yeah Singapore is also the same a bit more expensive but its okay since its safer than KL
You wanna try Singapore's OG Rapper Sheikh Haikal's Hainanese Chicken Rice "Hai Ge Ji" and Singapore Idol Taufiq Batisah's Chix Hot Chicken in Singapore?
Uncle Roger, please, open a restaurant in Brisbane. ❤
Literally even if all the hype is over after 10 years, i would visit the restaurant like the last hope 😂😅 (i am too young and broke rn)
Streetfood in K.L is of the hook. Might even beat bkk in quallity wich i know sounds sick
Jamie Oliver needs to come and see how to make proper Fried Rice ! LOL
i used to watch your video on instagram , it taste a lot better than uncle roger's food LOL. By the way, do you know there are a lot of people complaining the fried rice have no wok hei? and not a single fried egg and minced meat for a RM18 fried rice
Collaboration of the century
Nice!
I get that it's expensive for Malaysian standards, but comparing the prices to prices in where I live, it's not too bad..
Forget all that, I saw a toys r us
