Thank you Kylek, yes we would definitely return to Malaysia. We would like to get out of KL and explore more of the beautiful country. Next time we get out of the city for the days and the scenery was amazing. We would love to see more of this side of Malaysia.

Selamat Datang to Kuala Lumpur guys!! Thank you for your very well made videos. I appreciate the care & effort you must have put into the making of them. Must say some shots are quite mesmerizing. I like your aerial views too . Also appreciate your honesty and being kind at the same time. Please come back to explore other parts of our beautiful country. Cheerio!!
Thank you so very much for your lovely comments. Really glad to hear to have taken time to appreciate the effort that goes into them 😊It's nice to know you appreciate our honesty as it appears some people don't seem to like that about us. However, we really loved our first time in KL and Malaysia and has definitely given us the appetite to revisit to see a lot more of the beautiful country.
Aww thank you Jacob. We loved our time there, short and sweet unfortunately and back home now after an amazing 5 week trip which I hope we can replicate in these forthcoming series videos. We'd love to see more of Malaysia though and get out the city for the scenery and nature. Has loads to offer.
The breakfast chicken rice you guys had at Jalan Alor, the soup is not for dipping your chicken instead for drinking. Dipping your chicken in diluted its flavors, best way is to have the chicken meat with its soya sauce with rice together and eating chicken meat with its sauce only will be more salty by itself. As for drinks, always mix them up before drinking as the sugar layer is always at the bottom in majority of Malaysian drinks.
Thanks for the info Stuart, we probably look really dumb in some of these videos as it's our first time in Malaysia. We have been to Thailand many times but it is very different. Now we'll know next time we come.
@@continentalcoxons, no worries, I've been to other countries and made similar mistakes too, it's all about experiencing their way of lives, way of enjoying foods and cultures. Just sharing my experience with you guys.
Usually, if you’re given rice on a plate, it’s easier to eat with fork & spoon (don’t be shy to ask for cutleries if they are not available on the table). You use chopsticks if you are given a bowl of rice. The fried dough, yes, goes nice with coffee & coconut jam called kaya (try it). My late father-in-law (a Canadian) liked it a lot.
to be honest, for me petaling street or jalan alur is not the best place to review malaysian food. and as a tourist attraction, it is also a bit expensive. you can try nasi lemak at Nasi Lemak Wanjo kampung baru KL, roti canai and teh tarik at any mamak restaurant, ramli burger (street food), nasi kerabu, char koay teow, laksa, nasi kandar etc.
You are most likely correct Lanz as we didn't find the food to be the best, but for our short and limited time there it was quick and easy really. I think we even mentioned it was more catered for tourists and you can tell. When we get back to Malaysia we will definitely be trying more of the Malaysian dishes and exploring more as we'd both love to see more of the country other than just KL.
Aww that's lovely to hear Lanz and nice to know we'd be welcome back. I don't think everyone would like us back according to some of today's comments 🤣 We'd love to come back though and explore more of the country.
If you're still in Kuala Lumpur, please visit Teluk Cempedak Beach in Kuantan, Pahang. It's a beautiful beach & surrounding about an hour journey from KL.
We had hoped to try and get to one when we were there but we just ran out of time as we only had 3 nights in KL. We will definitely do this when we return to Malaysia. We loved KL.
I think this is a great view of a couple visiting Malaysia for the first time. As you say, you dont know all of the rituals and customs, but you were open and honest about that. I found it interesting to see what a British palette thought of the touristy food! It looks a fab place to visit. Great vid guys 🎉
Thank you Fi, it's all based on our experiences and of course we made mistakes along the way, which is human nature. Yes, maybe better research could've been done but we wanted to just go and experience it all and document it for those that may not have been before.
Thanks for the pointers Raymond. If we get back to Malaysia, which I hope we do, beautiful country, we will have a look at those for breakfast. That morning we were very hungry and wanted the first thing we could find.
Avoid the tourist areas. Kuala Lumpur is one the most value for money modern cities in the world. Just stay away from tourist traps........ Don't hesitate to ask locals for recommendations. Many are happy to assist......
Beers n alcoholic drinks r very expensive in Malaysia due to d heavy tax on those items. But u can get them cheaper in d duty free Islands like Langkawi, Tioman n Pangkor. D street food in Malaysia is generally very affordable, not that expensive. D cost of food in d foodcourts inside d malls in KL n around Malaysia is much better n cheaper than in Jalan Alor.
@@continentalcoxons Yes, I did, but I would much prefer a shorter video, I feel u can break this lovely vlog into 3 ideally, but I guess, u guys know better. 😁
Thank you once again Jamie and Jacqui for sharing your fabulous adventure's! Think it's because I know you personally brings even more pleasure watching your travel-log and banter. So pleased you are both home now but..... Where you off too next? xx
Well done Guys, another great video. Not sure if you tried the Guinness but it rocks your socks off as its the imported one (the yellow label bottles) Look forward to the next one. were just back from Gran Canaria and loved it thanks to your info. Stay safe and have fun 👍👍
Thank you Andrew, really pleased you have enjoyed it. Yeah I read that about the Guinness after seeing it everywhere when we were there. Apparently the brewery is only 20 minutes from the city too, which someone informed me about in the comments. Pleased you enjoyed GC and our videos helped you put. Always good to hear.
Hiya.. guys welcome to Malaysia 🇲🇾 (Your video is nice but a little distracted by the background noises..) Btw, before you eat Malaysian foods or drinks please ask the sellers how to consume it otherwise you'll get it wrong way.. Please visit the authentic Malaysian cuisines (Malay, Chinese, Indian) in Kampung Baru, Chow Kit Road Jalan TAR-Masjid India, Brickfields etc.. Try famous Nasi Lemak, roti canai, murtabak, authentic Malay satay, laksa, fried kwayteow, teh tarik, chendol etc.. Jalan Alor foods are mostly from outside like Thais and Chinese.. and not really cheap either.. Alcohol is cheap in tax free zone in Langkawi and the Forest City, Johor, .. Please explore more, and check it out..👍🇲🇾😊
Thanks dectac and for pointing that out, always looking to improve. Can I ask what background noises were distracting so we can try to amend in future?
@@continentalcoxons welcome.. The noise from the jalan Alor eateries and some from the roads that you were walking.. sometimes their noises are louder than your voice.. I can hardly hear what you said, it is quite annoying..ha ha..
@decTac thanks, yeah the background noise is difficult sometimes and you don't notice when filming as much. We even have a background cancelling microphone too to try and dumb the noise. Maybe we need to look for a better one.
Hi.Well done guys you are very adventurous,wouldn't be for me but lm enjoying your videos love your sense of adventure. You can't get away from Irish pubs no matter where you go in the world,crazy 😅
Aww thank you Sharon. Video seems to have done really well over the last 24 hours so very pleased about that. Mad that there's always an Irish bar everywhere in the world. We probably aren't that adventurous compared some. It's good to try somewhere different though and experience different cultures. Definitely broadens the mind.
i'm sorry to hear about the expensive food. Those food out of reach even for us. I suggest you try look out for local food. In Malaysian state of Penang you could get cheap local food at low price. It also called food capital of Malaysia. I strongly suggest you to explore Pulau Perhentian, Redang and some of exotic island in Sabah.
Thank you Mohd Yaseen. We knew it would be more expensive in KL. We would love to see more of Malaysia so if we get back then we would love to get to these places where it is a lot cheaper. Thank you for your advice.
Kuala Lumpor already overtook erupeon city with many skycrapers and also overtook some famous american city only new york city on top of malaysia now KL ranking no 6 with many highrise building in the world.
Thanks for the info, we always appreciate it. Yeah the places we ate in KL were not our best choices and were quick options after our few days exploring. They were close to our accommodation. We must come back and see more of Malaysia, beautiful country and people.
@@continentalcoxons well, it was in 1988, it's not a fair comparison. I thought it was amazing. I was coming fr California then ( on the way back to Malaysia), and I m pretty sure, CA didn't have an indoor roller coaster then
@nurulsyazwani5157 I corrected this at the start of our 2nd video in KL 😊 Pleased you enjoyed our videos and hope you stick around for our future videos. We would love to come.back to Malaysia. We have talked of possibly next year but seeing more of the country.
Oh wow, did not know that but certainly makes sense as to why it's so prevailant I'm KL. Sure I read somewhere it's stronger than it is back in the Republic of Ireland.
Love watching your videos ❤ views look amazing keep up the good work Isnt it awful when you get excited about your meal and it isnt what you were excepting ( soul crushing almost ) haha sorry am being dramatic foodie over here. Can't wait for the next episode.😊
Aww thank you Kim. Hope the longer episode held your attention for the duration. Yes always a disappointment, expected it to be really good too. Next episode should be coming very soon so keep an eye open. Hopefully Saturday.
It did I watched it from start to finish told the kids to go else where while I had the TV for once. And sat with my cuppa ready to watch. Can not wait for the next one 🙂
I've been hooked on your guys since your GC videos as am due to go myself in 4 weeks time flying from newcastle. And now I just enjoy your guys adventures. Yes looking forward to it.
I don't think is cocodile meat. You eating Thai which you should have eaten Malaysian and ask for nasi lemak or nasi kandar or nasi campur or roti canai.
We will definitely be trying these when we come back to Malaysia. Unfortunately our time in KL was very limited and found food close by to where we were staying. We will be making a point of eating more local next time.
a friend of mine went to Hong Kong n ordered some food.. on the table they hv chinese tea served in a bowl.. my friend drank it before somebody told him the tea meant to wash ur chopsticks off the greasy stuff u’re having n not for drinking… 🤣🤣.. so i understand when u guys used the soup to dip ur chicken.. 🤣🤣🤣.. guess no one there to guide u.. the soup meant to b drank whilst having the meal or u can pour it a bit onto the rice… 😅😅
🤣🤣 at least I did one thing right then and put some on my rice. Yeah the lovely lady who served us said soup, which sounded like soap 🤣🤣 Thanks for watching and your comments, we really appreciate them.
@@continentalcoxons 🤣🤣🤣… soup/soap… 🤣🤣🤣… do hv an enjoyable time in malaysia… if u see locals queuing for food… that means the place must b good or u r bound to hv hit n miss food experience…. unless u r not a foodie like me.. anyplace is ok as long as the price is not too pricey.. 😅😅
@eerievon2208 yeah seems to be the rule of thumb here in the UK too. We'd love to have had more time see more.of the food culture rather than the main tourist areas.
@@continentalcoxons oh really.. hope both of u had a gd time malaysia… do drop by again… yeah.. it seems it’s a standard rule of thumb everywhere to go where the locals go… cheers mate..!!
When in Rome do what the romans do. You hate the durian but we love it!! It’s the king of fruits , so when you in a foreign place , respect the culture , if locals like it, try it at least once. Tone down the hate, there’s plenty of fruits you never tasted before being in ‘1st world’ country like yours .We have great food compared to the west! You need a guide then assuming everything you see here
@Continental Coxon's some of your research on buildings and food is not accurate. Example, jalan alor is not only thai food, they served all types including western and seafood, malaysian lesser extend, korean, vietnamese.. Try asking people and not Google. But the street art is true, it is to rejuvenate an old neighbourhood and is found in most towns and cities in Malaysia.
@keangwooichoo6138 I think we said it was mainly Thai that we could see when we'd walked up the street. We did not google this one, it was just an observation from walking about there earlier that day. We also said near the start we would make mistake as we knew not everything we do is going to be right, but it is a learning process.
It is but that meal seemed to be way too oily. We love Asian food but that seemed to be too much for the Thai dish. Thai food is our favourite and never had anything as oily when eating Thai.
@Continental Coxon's I am not sure what you ordered, but satay almost always has peanut sauce. Satay is indonesian / malaysian food. Not sure if thailand has satay. The oil is from peanut (naturally).
@Continental Coxon's not sure about that. Although there are thai communities in Malaysia, I can say Chinese and indians here do not often consume it. Malays usually like tomyam. That is about it. Perhaps the occasional coconut glutinous rice with mango. This is because the green chilli is spicy and plus sour, stomach cannot handle it too much.
Unfortunately for you, Malaysia is a muslim country, therefore alchoholic drinks are taxed very heavily ,thus making it very Expensive. If drinking alcohol is a must for you, I would like to suggest for you to go to Langkawi Island. It is a tax free island.
Yeah we gathered that after being there a day or two and it made sense. It wasn't a huge issue for us, we just didn't expect it to be quite as expensive. It did not spoil our stay, we loved KL.
Note taken, nothing is meant to be condescending, it's just how we are, being ourselves. Can you point out in particular what came across as condescending?
@@continentalcoxons nah…it’s ok I understand you just got here and in this region and there’s plenty new that you don’t see and taste back home!!! Just enjoy yourself and say KL instead
I think you made the wrong choices of food and drinks. Its much much cheaper than UK and choice of food is diverse. I think you didnt do your homework. And yes the tone was condescending from the start.
The tone. It's as if Malaysia should give you cheap food and drinks and it didn't. Overall, the vibe was that you were tired and didn't expect much, and yes, now it's proven.
Welcome to Malaysia.. Hope you have enjoyed your stay on Malaysia.. we are still underrated but most tourists will return after their first visit.
Thank you Kylek, yes we would definitely return to Malaysia. We would like to get out of KL and explore more of the beautiful country. Next time we get out of the city for the days and the scenery was amazing. We would love to see more of this side of Malaysia.

Thank you KN. We've actually learned so much since putting this video out yesterday. We will know next time we come back to Malaysia.
At the end of the halan alor, there’s a stall named “burger boss” try our infamous ramly burger. Plenty of reviews from foreign vloggers.
We did actually go there, it will be in the next episode 😁

Also better with meat / seafood congee

🤣🤣 at least I did one thing right then and put some on my rice. Yeah the lovely lady who served us said soup, which sounded like soap 🤣🤣
Thanks for watching and your comments, we really appreciate them.
@@continentalcoxons 🤣🤣🤣… soup/soap… 🤣🤣🤣… do hv an enjoyable time in malaysia… if u see locals queuing for food… that means the place must b good or u r bound to hv hit n miss food experience…. unless u r not a foodie like me.. anyplace is ok as long as the price is not too pricey.. 😅😅
Thank you. Unfortunately we are back home now but we really enjoyed KL. We'd love to come back to Malaysia but explore more of the country.
@eerievon2208 yeah seems to be the rule of thumb here in the UK too. We'd love to have had more time see more.of the food culture rather than the main tourist areas.
@@continentalcoxons oh really.. hope both of u had a gd time malaysia… do drop by again… yeah.. it seems it’s a standard rule of thumb everywhere to go where the locals go… cheers mate..!!
When in Rome do what the romans do. You hate the durian but we love it!! It’s the king of fruits , so when you in a foreign place , respect the culture , if locals like it, try it at least once. Tone down the hate, there’s plenty of fruits you never tasted before being in ‘1st world’ country like yours .We have great food compared to the west! You need a guide then assuming everything you see here
Just eat the chicken. Not to dip in the soup. Hehe. Csn dip chicken in chilli sauce.
Yes we have had a few comments about that, which we knew we had probably done it wrong. Apologies.
We now know.
That is a soup to drink ! Not for dipping.
Ha ha, yes we know that now. We will look dumb on a few of these videos for sure 🙈
@Continental Coxon's and chopsticks are for eating noodles. Although as a Chinese I can use for rice but with a bowl not plate.
@keangwooichoo6138 still getting used to chopsticks so it was good practice 🤣
balik-balik pergi jalan alor ...memang tak ada tempat lain nak pergi ka pelancong-pelancong asing ni
terima kasih, kami memang enjoy jalan alor. mungkin kami tersilap pilih restoran malam tu. pengalaman yang baik walaupun.
suggestla tempat diorang mana tau
Thank you sirbob
@@continentalcoxons wc🤗
For European visitors, Jalan Alor is notably unique; for Asian visitors, night markets, food trucks, and kpg baru are very popular.
Have your cheap beer when you go to Vietnam.
Malaysia is a Muslim country, so alcohol is heavily taxed
Yes we know that now thank you.
Definitely didn't like look of food & you know us we like food. Tai curry not a patch on your sisters!!
Aye, it was really oily which is not how Thai curry is meant to be. Coconut milk, yes, floating in oil, no.
Still a great place though.
Not true exchange 106 is not the tallest. It is merdeka 118.
😮 oh no, apologies for getting that incorrect. It is what I had read before doing the video too 😔
@Continental Coxon's some of your research on buildings and food is not accurate. Example, jalan alor is not only thai food, they served all types including western and seafood, malaysian lesser extend, korean, vietnamese.. Try asking people and not Google. But the street art is true, it is to rejuvenate an old neighbourhood and is found in most towns and cities in Malaysia.
@keangwooichoo6138 I think we said it was mainly Thai that we could see when we'd walked up the street. We did not google this one, it was just an observation from walking about there earlier that day.
We also said near the start we would make mistake as we knew not everything we do is going to be right, but it is a learning process.
Alcohol and cigarettes' are heavily taxed in Malaysia hence the high price.
Yes we have learnt that recently, hence the high prices. Thankfully we don't smoke 😊
Most Asian food is oily.
It is but that meal seemed to be way too oily. We love Asian food but that seemed to be too much for the Thai dish. Thai food is our favourite and never had anything as oily when eating Thai.
@Continental Coxon's I am not sure what you ordered, but satay almost always has peanut sauce. Satay is indonesian / malaysian food. Not sure if thailand has satay. The oil is from peanut (naturally).
It was a Thai yellow curry that I ordered. Usually made from a paste and coconut milk.
@Continental Coxon's not sure about that. Although there are thai communities in Malaysia, I can say Chinese and indians here do not often consume it. Malays usually like tomyam. That is about it. Perhaps the occasional coconut glutinous rice with mango. This is because the green chilli is spicy and plus sour, stomach cannot handle it too much.
MALAYSIA........GODS OWN COUNTRY ❤
It is very beautiful indeed. We loved our time in KL. We would love to explore more of the beautiful country.
@@continentalcoxons People too are wonderful. That makes the real difference👌👌👌
I agree. It always helps when the people are helpful and friendly
Eat your rice with spoons and Not with chopsticks and forks
Local won't eat there...cause Not delicious
We can see why. Next time we go we hope to have more time to find the local food.
Unfortunately for you, Malaysia is a muslim country, therefore alchoholic drinks are taxed very heavily ,thus making it very Expensive.
If drinking alcohol is a must for you, I would like to suggest for you to go to Langkawi Island. It is a tax free island.
Yeah we gathered that after being there a day or two and it made sense. It wasn't a huge issue for us, we just didn't expect it to be quite as expensive. It did not spoil our stay, we loved KL.
You're eating the rice the wrong way. Use the spoon. You're provided with a fork and a spoon.
Yes we have had a few comments about that now so we have learned ourselves today too.
@@continentalcoxons Am a Malaysian; live outside of Malaysia. Ur most welcome in Malaysia.
Thank you, that is very warming to hear. We hope to return someday to explore what Malaysia has to offer out of KL.
Please work on your choice of words when doing a travel vlog. The overall tone of this video comes off quite condescending to the locals.
Note taken, nothing is meant to be condescending, it's just how we are, being ourselves. Can you point out in particular what came across as condescending?
why u eating like u were born yesterday 😅
Starving from all the walking around 🤣🤣🤣
You pronounce the word Kuala Lumpur funny. Please work on it thank you
🤣🤣 it's just where I come from, our accent is very different to anywhere in the UK.
@@continentalcoxons but we still can pronounce you country correctly
@@romyhamid1888 OK, we apologise if this causes you offence
@@continentalcoxons nah…it’s ok I understand you just got here and in this region and there’s plenty new that you don’t see and taste back home!!! Just enjoy yourself and say KL instead
Thanks Romy
I think you made the wrong choices of food and drinks. Its much much cheaper than UK and choice of food is diverse. I think you didnt do your homework. And yes the tone was condescending from the start.
😯 please tell me what is condescending about us? We are the least condescending people you can meet.
The tone. It's as if Malaysia should give you cheap food and drinks and it didn't. Overall, the vibe was that you were tired and didn't expect much, and yes, now it's proven.
@Continental Coxon's Not meant to be rude. I have seen a few reactors going overboard. That's not great either. 😅
