Apparently the girl who took order was not Malaysian but a foreign worker properly from other south east Asia country. She didn’t get what you want and misunderstood that you didn’t want to order any drinks. So she call the man, properly the boss of the coffee shop to handle when there is customers refuse to order drinks. She passed the wrong message to the man, that’s why the man seemed very unfriendly at first.
@@auser5275 Don't you need to worry out going to China Town because they wont even welcome barbarian people like you because everywhere you go you behaved like a monkey and rude. So back off.
There are so many comments trying to rationalize this situation. But bad experience is bad experience. We can't attempt to deny Carlos feeling and expect every tourist to know all the unspoken rules. This is not even something that can be studied on tourist leaflet. Please be kind and acknowledge the bad experience our tourist has had. If we are being defensive, we will stop thinking how to improve our hospitability.
this is rude, melayu people always smiling and honour every guest who coming to ours country, but in this vidio they are not melayu, i dont know, they people embarassing melayu country
@@hellosonirs are you joking...some of malay people are toxic too.. the attack jay chow ig for his concert..they attack coldplay concert..google "abang blazer merah" he assault sabahan people...
To anyone who thinks the server was trying to be a jerk, watch the sequence after 17:25 and see if it changes your mind. I think it was a moment of misunderstanding with no ill intent on either side.
Miscommunication. The rude person was actually the waitress that didn't even bother to understand you. She just walked away telling the man to 'deal' with you. This kind of bad service is very common in South East Asia.
Misunderstanding. It's a language and culture communication problem. 13:05 the black t-shirt waitress has no patience to attend to Carlos, whom a tourist who does not understand the local culture of ordering a drinks while sitting down on a table. She then wanted the man to attend, her impatience shown letting the man to think the customer is reluctant to order a drink instead of a language barrier between her.
@@maybox2084 it's worse when you know these workers instead of the locals are cooking the so-called "Malaysian" cuisine. Any locals in Klang Valley would vouch for that. Too bad that only Penang preserves the "authentic" Malaysian food.
Most of these coffeeshops in Malaysia are owned by the drinks stall owner. The other stall rent the space from the drinks stall owner. So minimally, you need to order something from the drinks stall to be able to sit down at a table.
If the drink stall is the anchor tenant, the owner has no worries about revenue since they're receiving rent from the other stores, I can never understand the rationale behind rules such as corkage fee or compulsory order of drinks.
I am a penangite. I think you misjudged that gentleman who you claim was rude. He was not rude but unfortunately he was scolded by you for nothing. Firstly, let me explained to you. In Penang, the coffee shop/restaurant and the hawkers that sell he food are totally different person. The hawkers(sub tenant) rent the place from the shop(main tenant) to sell their food. They don't sell drinks. Drinks you have to order from the shop. You can say they are different entity.The first and the second attempts you ordered your drink from the food seller/hawker. Since they sell only food they did not bother to take your drink order. The third attempt you ordered your drink from a young girl who don't understand what drink you want maybe from your different pronouciation of the drink. Your fourth and fifth attempt was from that unlucky waiter whom you misjudged him as rude. From what I see is he tried his very best to be nice to you but unfortunately you release your frustrations on him by raising your voice. Anyhow he still recommended you the ambla Juice which you claimed was nice. Maybe you should thank him instead of misjudging him. Another point I would like to highlight to you is that in Penang there are certain coffee shops/restaurant( main tenant )who charge a certain fee for those customers who don't ordered drinks from them. The reason is that you occupied their tables/chairs and they don't earn anything from you. They have to pay rental for their shop and if you don't ordered any drinks from them they don't earn anything from you.
Then the coffee shop/restaurant should bloody PUT A BIG SIGN and clearly stated CUSTOMER should purchase a drink if they want to sit down inside. There is no need to be rude when he was triying to explained to his customer!
I’m penangite too but this waiter/owner who runs a business in tourist spot couldn’t even understand simple English yet being rude to the guest is such a turn off dude. Stop explaining . Wrong is wrong
@@HJun88 I agree with you, they should upgrade their language skills or learning how to use technology to deal with language barriers. There are a ton of app to translate language, both written or spoken
You were kind of rude bro, you did not ask that guy 4 times but instead you asked the bahn mi lady and guy for the drink and they don’t even work there. You also raised your voice right away when he remained calm.
How can tourists know it's not their restaurant if no one explains it to you? And that guy clearly raised his voice first and he constantly interrupted me while talking.
@@WildCARLOSappearedthose stalls are all on the outskirts of the restaurant and you got vietnamese food, where you sat was Chinese food. You would think after seeing that you ordered from a stall outside the restaurant and a completely different cuisine that they are not affiliated. I didn’t hear him raise his voice first and if he did you said you’ve asked him 4 times which isn’t true so I would get mad too honestly. 13:43 is where the conversation started and you did raise your voice first he just said sir can you please while pointing at the menu. Like you also said your pronunciation also wasn’t the best although I can understand you this is an Asian country. I love your vlogs but I do think you were in the wrong for this one. If anything the bahn mi lady although very nice steered you wrong without informing you that sitting there isn’t free.
😂😂 I think this situations is a funny one..both are having miscommunication which involves WORD PLAY..This situation happen because the girl thoughts Carlos didn't want to order when he said 'NUTMEG DRINK' because she might understand and heard it as 'NOT MAKE DRINK'..that is why she pointed out the rules..at this point she might think U are rude by telling her to not make a drink so that is why she pass it to the man..but the man I think also understand U as the girl did which is 'NOT MAKE DRINK' thus he thought that U didn't want to follow the rules and he also might think that U are rude on keep repeating not making drink for U when U actually said 'NUTMEG DRINK' so he started to said U need to go outside if U don't want to drink..only then the man seem to understand after U point it out on the menu..that is why the man started to speak in lower tone and treat U nice and friendly in the end. I think this only happen because of the 'NUTMEG DRINK' order. It might be different if U order others drink.
@@WildCARLOSappearedbro you don't need to be a newcomer to understand what is happening. Even in your own country a lot of restaurants are using the same rule. In this video the man was right and maybe in your own country you're not doing this but in foreign country you do as you like
@@ameirazizol6745 bro, the guy ordered a drink! The waiters don't even know their own menu in English. He spoke good english. I could understand Carlo. The waiter could've at least ask him if he can't understand Carlo. Not ignore him & being rude!!
I feel the guy just didn't understand initially. And wasn't helped that you asked several people before and they didn't explain it to you. Just a misunderstanding
13:40 The food stall is not very friendly based on its gestures, it is said that Malaysians are very good at speaking English, in fact they are not, the seller should be more patient with serving customers.
It is first necessary to assess your own English ability in order to determine whether someone speaks good English. When your English writing is so poor with grammatical errors so obvious, you cannot possibly know that someone's English is not good.
Ive been to malaysia. 1 is west, 1 is east. If u wanna find for the friendly malaysians, go to the east. U can learn more culture unlike in the peninsular. More rude humanity compare to the east. Especially the capital, kuala lumpur. It is ashame it is the capital but the people there is quite arrogant compare to the people in east malaysia. Kuala lumpur is a nice place but the people is not. I rather go to the east
Not all peninsular state are rude.. Please try come to East coast of peninsular like Kelantan and Terengganu..Their People have better hospitality and food too..
come to kedah state... food is more cheap in kedah... kedah is near penang state... take train from butterworth, penang to alor setar, kedah... go to gunung jerai in kedah if you want cold climates weather 😊 ...kedah have many waterfall
After seeing this video i guess the sentiment of malaysian shop owners and ppl would be to avoid this guy (you) instead for shaming the guy over such a small matter
I don't think I can totally agree with you... It is not about race or ethnics group, a lot of time it gets to do with locations. The more tourist-popular and business competitive a location is, the more common such practice will be becomes. I have visited Malay/Mamak restaurants in Malaysia that has the similar rule. On the other hand, I would also say such rule is not as common in Malay/Mamak restaurants because both foods and drinks are operated by the same owners.
Bro honestly the guy didn’t deserve to be in your thumbnail, he helped you, and respected you, + it’s sounded more like a misunderstanding or not heard. U both were chill after that no need to push it even more bro
so you mean youtuber deserve to be treated this way then? Even if you dont understand you could say you dont understand what youtuber is saying. youtuber is already EATING AT THE TABLE. and you ask people to leave? like some kind of a dog?
cant believe any sane human being accept that kinds of treatment, misunderstood or not, they way he treated him was WRONGG. Don't normalize bad behavior.
Agree,and the fact he put the title telling us to avoid him,I think the rude one is the yt guy does that I can kinda see why the blue shirt guy sounded rude and like u said,it does sound more like misunderstanding and before yt guy leave,the blue shirt guy gave him change/just gave him money as apologies
@@coronavirus5688and what if he dk how to say he don't get it/don't understand? Both of them does not deserved to be treated this way Idk if u know or not,but usually there are restaurant that doesn't let u stay if u didn't order food or drinks from their shop,it's like living in someone's house rent free or does whatever u want and not what the house owner who invited u thinking u would respect and follow the house rule. So using that kind of logic,if ppl go to his restaurant and not ordering from his restaurant ,the owner can't earn money for himself and his employee. if u think a guy doing his business earning money is rude then it is also rude that yt guy calls him out like that and being like how some ppl in Twitter trying to "cancel "ppl right? There are way worse thing human do and this blue shirt guy who don't understand a yt guy saying nutmeg with a wrong pronunciation until he pointed it out(not hating just stating ppl there read it as nut meg not nootmeg) and thought he said he drank a nutmeg juice before arriving there so he doesn't want a drink In the end ,yt guy ordered another type of drink and everything was calm again so why posting and hating on someone who u alrdy just solve the prob?
16:48 I don't think the asian guy was that bad. It's just that he don't quite understand what you were saying due to your heavy accent, sometimes I had to play it back again to hear what you were saying as well😅😅
Its okay just a miss communication...the green drink u had is from a fruit that is call ambra (Ambarella fruit, also called golden apples or jew plums, are sweet and spicy tropical fruits that can be eaten both ripe and unripe) n the small fruit u had is asam boi (salted dried plum)
You are in a multi cultural country but your waitresses doesn’t seem to understand english at the slightest. That is the problem and then pushing it to your male colleague without explaining anything 🤦
The food you ordered outside at the food stalls isn't a part of the restaurant establishment. When you didn't order drinks or food, from his restaurant, he's thinks you're only using his restaurant tables and chairs and his restaurant eating areas to eat the stuff you bought from outside. That's why he was annoyed. Once you became his customer by ordering drinks from his restaurant , he treats you as his customer, as how a customer should be treated.
Mh but the Banh Mi seller advised me to go inside the restaurant. And in the beginning I didn't even notice the sign that you have to order a drink. Communication is key and if there's a lack of communication or no one explains the important things, something like in the video can happen. On the other hand I don't say that I'm super innocent in general. But what the guy did is not the way how you treat people / customers / win new customers. Especially cause I tried to order a drink a couple of times with multiple persons
By the way, we have rules, regulations, more like a guidelines here in Malaysia , to do and what not to do. We're definitely not like Indonesia where you can do literally anything as you please. So, obey the laws, respect the culture, the people, and the people's way of life (I'm from KL and I too have to adjust to the way of the Penangites when I visit there) and we'll all get along fine. Cheers.
@@adeyz what do you mean "you can do literally anything as you please"? in Indonesia we have rules and culture to obey too, but you don't have to be rude to say it to someone who didn't know it, especially to foreigner who used to live with different rule and culture
What I hate about Penang is you have to order from A or B in order to sit down and enjoy your food. When you ordered some food, the drink stall would force you to get some otherwise you can't sit. They are in this together which I find it super lame. If the same situation happened with me and the waiter here, I would be pissed as well. I'm an overseas Malaysian and I do feel you bro.
@baddoggi4238 Foods and drinks are usually not under the same business operators in most coffee shops setup in Malaysia. The drinks are usually sold by the coffee shop owners who supply the space and tables and chairs, also rent out the stall to different food hawkers. Being able to make a few bucks here and there from customers who eat there is part of their small business operations. Each country has its own culture and ways of doing things. While I would agree the local business owner should have acted a little "friendlier", but as tourist, it is also important for one to under the cultural differences and ways of how locals do things. Isn't that is part of traveling?
I saw one Penang woman taking her Singaporean friends to look for 'good food' in a Penang street. She took them to buy some noodles and bungkus them and took her friend all the way to a coffee shop so that they could sit down and it. The coffee shop is not a public park. The owner has to pay rent and electricity and water bills (you can use its toilet). Therefore, she and her Singaporean friends had to buy drinks from that coffee shop. The coffee shop needs to earn money to exist or else people would have to stand and it and pee where?
It is mind-boggling, the majority of Chinese Malaysians do not speak their national language Bahasa Malaysia. Can you imagine the Chinese of the Philippines or Thailand or Indonesians or Australians or France do not speak their national language and insist on speaking Chinese? It won’t turn well. But hey Malaysians are happy and proud about this, who are we to judge?
i once treated like this because i brought drink from outside.. in penang also.. i eat nasi padang there and i dont know the one who sell drinks is the owner.. but the auntie is yelling like crazy.. scolding me for bringing outside drink.. everyone looked at me.. to be honest, this bro in the video is not rude at all.. just a little bit misunderstanding.. is that you called yelling, u should see the auntie that scold me..
Oh sorry for your bad experience. But you don't have a problem. Usually the people who act like this including yelling have much bigger inner conflicts 🤗
So far Indonesian people are definitely more extroverted and funny. Maybe it's because Malaysia is more developed than Indonesia and there are also many Chinese people who sometimes only focus on business. On the other hand I've been in Malaysia for not even 1 month. And I was in Indonesia for 3 years. That makes it hard to give a proper conclusion.l ✌️
@@WildCARLOSappeared Not all chinese people are like that, maybe in more in Penang, but if you go to somewhere like KL or Selangor this type of treatment wont happen much
There're many hateful comments here. I don't think Malaysian viewers will watch this channel. Hopefully this channel growing as you travel from a country to another country
What can I say. Vlogging in Malaysia makes rather economically sense if you have a huge audience that keeps watching your videos wherever you go. Most of the locals usually only watch content from their own country. I think people from 1st world countries don't care that much about their own country. For example I wouldn't watch an Indonesian guy traveling in Germany. But I would maybe watch him traveling in 3rd world countries if he is has a cool personality. My channel will keep growing 🚀 even though we still depend on an algorithm, but it's a smart and fair algorithm
But not many people live in Malysia. And beside that there are many Chinese and South Asian people, not sure if they like to watch vlogs like this. It is what it is
It's not about how many people in a country. It's about how many people attach to social media in that country. You might want to see another German travel vlog such as KenAbroad
Malaysia tak power macam jiran sebelah,,berapa juta jer banding Indonesia.Saya lebih suka utuber yg jujur daripada 24jam cakap baik2 ker,well i know la some malaysian memang cam s-ial punya cakap.rasis jgn ckp la.
its seem rude to me, granted i seem worse from penang, doesn't mean this is not based on the body language, luckily its the young chinese man, if aunty uncle would be much worse
Beda banget sama chinese indonesia yg ramah tamah, bisa bahasa Indonesia & daerah. Berbaur menjadi 1 dengan masyarakat lokal indonesia. Dan mereka jga nasionalis. Itu lah keunikan indonesia.
Hello Cina tempat kau pun mati kena bantai dah lupa ? Kerusuhan Mei 1998 di medan dan Jakarta .. kau ingat orang Malaysia ni bodoh ? Kes pulau rempang tu apa pula? Rakyat sendiri dibantai pemerintah kamu . Hanya seorang Cina bernama tony winata habis rosak rakyat Melayu di Indonesia .
Its not Carlos fault, the the lady making the banh mi said he could sit there. And then when he tried to order from the shop a drink, they didnt understand their own menu and fobbed him off several times.
You were in Chinatown of Penang. That's why you are experienced this rudeness. I would avoid this part of town. Also, the food item @8:38 is called "banh mi", an iconic Vietnamese food. It's interesting that the Chinese would copy anything that's popular, then ruin the original taste!
Hi there Carlos. Just as local Malaysian from KL like a me who had worked and stayed there. My best advice is stay clear of eating at those coffee shops insisting to ordering drinks over there. Instead you could just do a takeout and head to somewhere else. Honestly, I can tell you that there is no such thing as to force a customer/tourist to order drinks in KL or even in JB. The only sign you will see at most is no outside food, but a must to order drink is uncalled for. This coffeeshop owners are just too bloody profit oriented and they care less about the quality of service. Lastly, do visit places where locals eat and try to avoid touristy food places cause you will later notice the overprice differences.
Thanks. Planning to go penang soon and will avoid this place. Also strange that some defensively advice that this is normal and expect foreigners to learn the "culture". Rudeness is not a malaysian culture. Its just an isolated bad behavior.
He had ordered food and was eating at the restaurant, he already had a drink at the table, and ordered another drink at the restaurant but was told to leave if he didn't order a drink at the restaurant😢 what a rude service😢
In indonesia owner will be happy if there is a foreigner sit in their table even the foreigner did not order. They will taking photo with the foreigner as promotion for their shop.
This is something what I generally don't understand. If there's someone filming, obviously making a video for youtube, why the owners or staff don't try their best to satisfy that customer? I mean I don't expect being treated like a king and that's not the point. But it can be a pretty good move to get some more customers in the best case. Or even many more customers. Instead most of the staff is just lazy or they just give you an average customer service. At least if I was a restaurant owner, I would take the chance. And beside that it can be so much fun for both having a meaningful conversation or just joke around a bit
Most of the workers who serve in this video are Indonesians lol.. those who refuse to serve are also like Indonesians.. this is the Malaysian Chinese area,malay Malaysia will not work in Chinese stalls because the food is haram.. most of them are Indonesian workers..
As a Penang citizen i hate those kind of "Kopi Tiam" Coffee Shop owners. They force people to order something to eat from the stalls and they are brutal. You did order though, he is just terrible at English and didn't really know how to proper handle the situation. I hope you enjoyed the rest of Penang.
This happened to me in Penang too when I visited in 2017. I only ordered food. Did not want to order a drink- but the drinks guy was pissed. I had a medical condition which meant I could only drink sterilised water- which I drank from my water bottle- which I sterilised every evening……I was super paranoid about eating and drinking in Georgetown- I had never seen so many rats in my life! The food tasted good- but the rats really put me off my food….
I am sorry to hear about your medical condition. But to be fair and honest, foods and drinks are usually not under the same business operators in most coffee shops setup in Malaysia. The drinks are usually sold by the coffee shop owners who supply the space and tables and chairs, also rent out the stall to different food hawkers. Being able to make a few bucks here and there from customers who eat there is part of their small business operations. Just sharing that so you are aware and understand the cultural differences, And if you are concerned about the hygiene of street foods or hawkers, and I would also suggest you go to more established dine-in restaurants or fast foods. There are plenty of such options in Penang/Malaysia.
sorry bout that,unfortunately most chinese kopitiam are operate like this, we local already accustomed to this kind of culture, not saying this is good, but there's nothing to be done, but most eatery like cafe or malay operate one would be much more friendly than chinese kopitiam,some hawkers street food do have hygiene problem i agree with that, i also suggest only to visit dine in restaurants since u have medical condition, do give malaysia another chance next time
Then, respect the restaurant's rule and pay RM$2.00 for using its premises. Don't you know when Angmos go to less developed country, they think their five-cent coin is as big as the wheel of a bullock cart?
@@GoodGood-vb8gm This system is stupid. Why confuse tourists with such a system? Nobody is disputing the drinks stall holder's right to get payment, but since the food stall holders are his tenants, the rent is already baked into the food prices. Besides, I shouldn't get aggravation from the drinks' stall due to a medical condition.
It's merely a misunderstanding. Since English is not their native language, it's helpful to speak slowly and use complete sentences. For instance, saying "I want to order a nutmeg juice" will ensure clarity, as the word "nutmeg" may sound like other words, causing confusion.
In Indonesia, regardless of ethnicity, they have the same friendliness, bro. Sometimes the only problem is language, but I think they try to remain friendly 😊😊

Tourist should come to visit Sarawak. You will feel the difference in courtesy, polite and friendly attitude where you hang around compare to penang. I agreed that most of them doing business with a rude and unfriendly way. Everything is about money. This is the only state in Malaysia that you should not consider for holidays. Rude, bad attitude and you are forced to purchase drinks or else you need to pay for entrance fee even you order food but yet serve you with the unwelcome behaviour. This will not happen to Sarawak at all. You will love Sarawak after your visiting. Food is much cheaper and people here are courtesy and you are freely to sit anywhere without paying anything and always being welcome without paying anything when entering any food parade here. No one will force you to purchase any food or drinks. No crap policies like penang. Should boycott visiting Penang food parade. Teach them a lesson when they don’t have business.
Hi friend, unfortunately I have experienced the same in food courts in Sibu, Sarawak too. Same thing, no drinks ordered, no seating. However Sarawak is a much friendlier place than Penang for sure.
tbh with the accent, "nootmeg" doesn't sound the same as nutmeg to someone whom first language isnt english. It kind of sounded like "not make drink"... But the staff could have handled it better.
What nonsense, the vlogger clearly started that he ordered a drink so how does any sane person can think he said “not make drink”? Stop condoning such rude people in Malaysia.
Dear Carlos, As a Malaysian I'm truly sorry about what happened to you... It is not Malaysian hospitality but sometimes the language barrier do become a problem when they don't understand what you're trying to say. Still some people just don't know how to treat others nicely... I'm really sorry for that... I hope you don't feel regret coming to Malaysia just because one man's action. Malaysia is actually a very great place for you to explore...some glitches are normal but I hope you enjoy staying here....
13:43 you can keep replaying the incident when Carlos was approached by the guy with glasses (X) and put yourself in the X's shoe. Was X really rude? X was trying to explain but X was labeled rude right away. If X was a rude person, X would not be entertaining the other foreigners, isn't it.

Bs. That's a horrible mentality to have. No way anyone should learn from them. I was born and raised here in Penang and this is NOT how you treat people. If I was treated this way which thankfully I haven't because there's no pronunciation barrier...I won't let them treat me that way.
I have a question for you. I’m due to go to KL in December for 4 days. Solo female traveller. KL doesn’t look too friendly would I be better heading to penang? First time solo so have some apprehensions
Sorry for interjecting but you'll be absolutely fine travelling alone. I did it recently and I'm doing it again very soon, so as a female just use your common sense and intuition in situations and more importantly know your currency conversion so you don't get scammed on prices. Travel light and act confident in any situation. Use your gut instinct and walk away if it doesn't feel right. Don't tell people you're travelling alone it's none of their business. You're meeting your husband, brother, best friend etc but also don't overthink it. You'll have a wonderful time and feel independent and liberated. I admire you and hope you have many amazing adventures. The world is your oyster so don't avoid one place over another unless the locals have advised that it's dangerous. Safe travels 😀
Kl is 100x better than Jakarta . J have never seem tourists saying Jakarta is the best city in Asean , i can send u videos of foreigners making KL their most favourite place in south east Asia . Did u also know Jakarta is the most polluted city in the world ? Among tje biggest slums in Asia ? And in malaysia indonesians are tje major foreigners who are put into jail for many crimes? And Please Google “ pulau rempang “ or on UA-cam , the indonesian authorities are expelling their own people for not wanting to move out From their island .
Don't limit yourself to explore. Every countries have their plus & minus. Don't even heard what people said about KL or Jakarta or elsewhere. Go there to feels & experience it by yourself. Unless you're a tourist not a traveller
You really need a Malaysian Chinese person to show you around what's food to get. Also yea the cafe can be strange to order sometimes. So jealous you in Malaysia - I can't wait to go back there again. The problem with Malaysia is that you can only eat so much per day.
😂😂 it's cute how when you wanted to order the nutmeg juice, you said "permisi" which Indonesians often use it but not malaysians. usually they'll use "maaf" or often times, "tumpang tanya".

Dear Carlos guy, He is not being rude, you as tourist perhaps need to ask permission in the first place, right? Don't have the mindset that the locals will accommodate your 'needs' and you can do what you want when you visit Asian countries. You can try bring sandwich and sit in Italian restaurant in Venice, I will be surprise if they don't chase you out. He is 100% more nice compare most of the restaurant owners in HK...
Better travel in the Philippines. Why?? Because even vendors can speak English even though they just finish high school 😢 plus people in the Philippines are mostly hospitable
I am not a Malaysian. But I think this blogger is a petty fellow. There will always be people who are less intelligent and who lack social grace. That chap would not have been working as a waiter in a coffee shop if he had been otherwise.There is no need to post his faces on social media for the whole world to see and to shame him. I guess this is your way of taking revenge.
the waiter misunderstands your pronunciation. actually he should not ask to dine out if you dont order beverage from them.. Also earlier on there is a lady, but that lady is not local malaysian, she is a foreigner. we as locals also sometimes find it hard to communicate with them as well.. so due to communication barrier, it's recommended to point at the menu on what you really want.
Hi Brother, please don't let this ruin your food journey here. However, in the Shop Owner's defense, most restaurants all over the globe doesn't allow outside food and drinks... This is quite common and it is not something new or exclusive to this restaurant... If you insist on bringing in your own drinks, then it is common to follow the house rules and pay for corkage... Please try our Chicken Satay, Lamb Satay, Nasi Lemak, Nasi Kandar and Lamb Dumpling if you get the opportunity...
seems like he gets the rules....Guy's after a nutmeg juice,but the stall guy is a bit dodgy with the English...got this selective English thing going on stuff like that..The stall guy ain't catching what he's on about and now the owner's angry thinking the guy wants to sit without ordering drinks. Tough break.
@@harris4874 Yes Brother, I understand, but having traveled so much "The Tourist" should have been able to understand and adjust to the dynamics of a fast paced normal, street side local Coffee Shop... Most coffee shops/ restaurants depend on their peak hours to make the most money and in order to do that, they have to be fast and efficient and they need all the customers to order as fast as possible. If they are out of Nutmeg Juice, the customer should quickly choose another drink option instead of wasting the owner's time by occupying the seat of another potential customer... I'm not trying to be rude, but a little understanding from the tourist would have solved this issue... Having said that, the lady who tried to take the order initially did seem a little too agitated and impatient which might have triggered such a reaction from the Tourist in the first place... In this case, the lady should have been more polite and welcoming instead of being so agitated and unwelcoming... I say it's a mistake on both sides...
You're a kiasu it's your kind of attitude that doesn't belong to Malaysia and brings down our country's image. The customer isn't rude the guy in the blue was. You should be polite now to others for your own good or you will be forced to be polite in the near Future
He's not rude, it's language barrier,he did try to understand you n take your order, n return your change...the girl waitress is the rude one! So please edit your clickbaits...ha
Thru the whole vid i observed... There is a lady who doesn't understand what drink you mentioned so she shouted to the blue shirt guy to serve you... That stupid lady server is the culprit behind this miscommunication... If i was there i will def scokd that girl who avoid to take order and give me a ignorant face..

It's a communication gap between you and the vendor. Forgive him as he may have grown up within his own chinese community speaking only chinese and lack English compression
Penang Chinese were very unfriendly and racist toward foreigner but it depends on the individual while the local Malay, Indian and Siam people were friendly
I agree with you 😅 That was really complicated cause no one understood me. But my pronunciation was also bad to be fair. On the other hand I've never experienced such a rude waiter and I've eaten in little local restaurants probably more than 1000x within the last 4 years
Ha, this kopitiam and this server. So familiar. I stayed at the hotel next door for 3 months and almost ate here everyday, either inside the kopitiam or at the night hawker stalls. The food isn't very healthy and the drinks sweetened. Developed some health issues later. And this male server, I remembered him. He refused to speak to me in Penang Hokkien. Instead only speak in Mandarin, which I am not well versed in. He did it over and over despite me speaking to him in Hokkien. Maybe he is a cyborg covered with human flesh n skin. Programmed to think only one way. Lack of customer friendliness. I sympathize with Carlos. Unfortunately, this guy seemed incorrigible. Unlike the bar in the 1980's US sitcom Cheers, where everybody knows your name, imo here in Lebuh Carnavon food street, they only know what is in your wallet. Spoilt rotten by tourists, I suspect. The food here is mediocre on average with a few good stalls. Am now a local resident and I avoid coming here anymore. 3 straight months eating here is enough. There are plenty of better eating places with cheaper prices and where the 'everybody knows your name' attitude still prevails, here in Penang. Just being a transient youtuber on a few days whirlwind visit ain't gonna allow one to truly savor the heartland of Penang. Just like Singapore, where the best experiences are in the heartland, not the usual tourist spots.
Why would you expect everyone to know how to speak a language/dialect that isn't taught at school? Hokkien isn't taught at school bruh, mandarin is. His mother tongue might not be Hokkien, only learn mandarin Chinese at school. Why you sound like those white people screaming "Speak English!!!" at anyone who are speaking other languages when you can actually speak mandarin?

Apparently the girl who took order was not Malaysian but a foreign worker properly from other south east Asia country. She didn’t get what you want and misunderstood that you didn’t want to order any drinks. So she call the man, properly the boss of the coffee shop to handle when there is customers refuse to order drinks. She passed the wrong message to the man, that’s why the man seemed very unfriendly at first.

To anyone who thinks the server was trying to be a jerk, watch the sequence after 17:25 and see if it changes your mind. I think it was a moment of misunderstanding with no ill intent on either side.
Miscommunication. The rude person was actually the waitress that didn't even bother to understand you. She just walked away telling the man to 'deal' with you. This kind of bad service is very common in South East Asia.
Misunderstanding. It's a language and culture communication problem. 13:05 the black t-shirt waitress has no patience to attend to Carlos, whom a tourist who does not understand the local culture of ordering a drinks while sitting down on a table. She then wanted the man to attend, her impatience shown letting the man to think the customer is reluctant to order a drink instead of a language barrier between her.

Most of waitress in chinese restaurant is foreigner, most of them are low class society with a bad attitude
Most of these coffeeshops in Malaysia are owned by the drinks stall owner. The other stall rent the space from the drinks stall owner. So minimally, you need to order something from the drinks stall to be able to sit down at a table.
Stupid system
He did order drink "nutmeg" but foreign server didnt understand him & those local boss should give a proper training
coz he wanted a nootmeg drink
If the drink stall is the anchor tenant, the owner has no worries about revenue since they're receiving rent from the other stores, I can never understand the rationale behind rules such as corkage fee or compulsory order of drinks.
@@munster1404 only in stupid malaysia 🤣🤣🤣
I am a penangite. I think you misjudged that gentleman who you claim was rude. He was not rude but unfortunately he was scolded by you for nothing. Firstly, let me explained to you. In Penang, the coffee shop/restaurant and the hawkers that sell he food are totally different person. The hawkers(sub tenant) rent the place from the shop(main tenant) to sell their food. They don't sell drinks. Drinks you have to order from the shop. You can say they are different entity.The first and the second attempts you ordered your drink from the food seller/hawker. Since they sell only food they did not bother to take your drink order. The third attempt you ordered your drink from a young girl who don't understand what drink you want maybe from your different pronouciation of the drink. Your fourth and fifth attempt was from that unlucky waiter whom you misjudged him as rude. From what I see is he tried his very best to be nice to you but unfortunately you release your frustrations on him by raising your voice. Anyhow he still recommended you the ambla Juice which you claimed was nice. Maybe you should thank him instead of misjudging him. Another point I would like to highlight to you is that in Penang there are certain coffee shops/restaurant( main tenant )who charge a certain fee for those customers who don't ordered drinks from them. The reason is that you occupied their tables/chairs and they don't earn anything from you. They have to pay rental for their shop and if you don't ordered any drinks from them they don't earn anything from you.
Then the coffee shop/restaurant should bloody PUT A BIG SIGN and clearly stated CUSTOMER should purchase a drink if they want to sit down inside. There is no need to be rude when he was triying to explained to his customer!
‘I don’t care!’
Rude enough for tho
I’m penangite too but this waiter/owner who runs a business in tourist spot couldn’t even understand simple English yet being rude to the guest is such a turn off dude. Stop explaining . Wrong is wrong

You were kind of rude bro, you did not ask that guy 4 times but instead you asked the bahn mi lady and guy for the drink and they don’t even work there. You also raised your voice right away when he remained calm.
How can tourists know it's not their restaurant if no one explains it to you? And that guy clearly raised his voice first and he constantly interrupted me while talking.
@@WildCARLOSappearedthose stalls are all on the outskirts of the restaurant and you got vietnamese food, where you sat was Chinese food. You would think after seeing that you ordered from a stall outside the restaurant and a completely different cuisine that they are not affiliated. I didn’t hear him raise his voice first and if he did you said you’ve asked him 4 times which isn’t true so I would get mad too honestly. 13:43 is where the conversation started and you did raise your voice first he just said sir can you please while pointing at the menu. Like you also said your pronunciation also wasn’t the best although I can understand you this is an Asian country. I love your vlogs but I do think you were in the wrong for this one. If anything the bahn mi lady although very nice steered you wrong without informing you that sitting there isn’t free.

😂😂 I think this situations is a funny one..both are having miscommunication which involves WORD PLAY..This situation happen because the girl thoughts Carlos didn't want to order when he said 'NUTMEG DRINK' because she might understand and heard it as 'NOT MAKE DRINK'..that is why she pointed out the rules..at this point she might think U are rude by telling her to not make a drink so that is why she pass it to the man..but the man I think also understand U as the girl did which is 'NOT MAKE DRINK' thus he thought that U didn't want to follow the rules and he also might think that U are rude on keep repeating not making drink for U when U actually said 'NUTMEG DRINK' so he started to said U need to go outside if U don't want to drink..only then the man seem to understand after U point it out on the menu..that is why the man started to speak in lower tone and treat U nice and friendly in the end. I think this only happen because of the 'NUTMEG DRINK' order. It might be different if U order others drink.

13:40 The food stall is not very friendly based on its gestures, it is said that Malaysians are very good at speaking English, in fact they are not, the seller should be more patient with serving customers.
He's chinese malaysian bro, he's proud of his chinese language more than any language including malay language
Those early ones whom he ordered the juice from are the ones not Malaysians...
It is first necessary to assess your own English ability in order to determine whether someone speaks good English. When your English writing is so poor with grammatical errors so obvious, you cannot possibly know that someone's English is not good.
Ive been to malaysia. 1 is west, 1 is east. If u wanna find for the friendly malaysians, go to the east. U can learn more culture unlike in the peninsular. More rude humanity compare to the east.

If you go to any Malay restaurant you can order anything without even care if you want to order drinks or not. Just pay what you eat.
I don't think I can totally agree with you... It is not about race or ethnics group, a lot of time it gets to do with locations. The more tourist-popular and business competitive a location is, the more common such practice will be becomes. I have visited Malay/Mamak restaurants in Malaysia that has the similar rule. On the other hand, I would also say such rule is not as common in Malay/Mamak restaurants because both foods and drinks are operated by the same owners.

Idk if u know or not,but usually there are restaurant that doesn't let u stay if u didn't order food or drinks from their shop,it's like living in someone's house rent free or does whatever u want and not what the house owner who invited u thinking u would respect and follow the house rule. So using that kind of logic,if ppl go to his restaurant and not ordering from his restaurant ,the owner can't earn money for himself and his employee.
if u think a guy doing his business earning money is rude then it is also rude that yt guy calls him out like that and being like how some ppl in Twitter trying to "cancel "ppl right? There are way worse thing human do and this blue shirt guy who don't understand a yt guy saying nutmeg with a wrong pronunciation until he pointed it out(not hating just stating ppl there read it as nut meg not nootmeg) and thought he said he drank a nutmeg juice before arriving there so he doesn't want a drink
In the end ,yt guy ordered another type of drink and everything was calm again so why posting and hating on someone who u alrdy just solve the prob?

You are in a multi cultural country but your waitresses doesn’t seem to understand english at the slightest. That is the problem and then pushing it to your male colleague without explaining anything 🤦
The food you ordered outside at the food stalls isn't a part of the restaurant establishment. When you didn't order drinks or food, from his restaurant, he's thinks you're only using his restaurant tables and chairs and his restaurant eating areas to eat the stuff you bought from outside. That's why he was annoyed. Once you became his customer by ordering drinks from his restaurant , he treats you as his customer, as how a customer should be treated.
Mh but the Banh Mi seller advised me to go inside the restaurant. And in the beginning I didn't even notice the sign that you have to order a drink. Communication is key and if there's a lack of communication or no one explains the important things, something like in the video can happen. On the other hand I don't say that I'm super innocent in general. But what the guy did is not the way how you treat people / customers / win new customers. Especially cause I tried to order a drink a couple of times with multiple persons
By the way, we have rules, regulations, more like a guidelines here in Malaysia , to do and what not to do. We're definitely not like Indonesia where you can do literally anything as you please. So, obey the laws, respect the culture, the people, and the people's way of life (I'm from KL and I too have to adjust to the way of the Penangites when I visit there) and we'll all get along fine.

Carlos is creating sensation to get lots of "likes". The shop owner was kind, returning the "changes".
What I hate about Penang is you have to order from A or B in order to sit down and enjoy your food. When you ordered some food, the drink stall would force you to get some otherwise you can't sit.

@@MamuWizz84 what an awful and arrogant response 🤣
@baddoggi4238 Foods and drinks are usually not under the same business operators in most coffee shops setup in Malaysia. The drinks are usually sold by the coffee shop owners who supply the space and tables and chairs, also rent out the stall to different food hawkers. Being able to make a few bucks here and there from customers who eat there is part of their small business operations. Each country has its own culture and ways of doing things. While I would agree the local business owner should have acted a little "friendlier", but as tourist, it is also important for one to under the cultural differences and ways of how locals do things. Isn't that is part of traveling?
I saw one Penang woman taking her Singaporean friends to look for 'good food' in a Penang street. She took them to buy some noodles and bungkus them and took her friend all the way to a coffee shop so that they could sit down and it. The coffee shop is not a public park. The owner has to pay rent and electricity and water bills (you can use its toilet). Therefore, she and her Singaporean friends had to buy drinks from that coffee shop. The coffee shop needs to earn money to exist or else people would have to stand and it and pee where?

What can I say. Vlogging in Malaysia makes rather economically sense if you have a huge audience that keeps watching your videos wherever you go. Most of the locals usually only watch content from their own country. I think people from 1st world countries don't care that much about their own country. For example I wouldn't watch an Indonesian guy traveling in Germany. But I would maybe watch him traveling in 3rd world countries if he is has a cool personality.

But not many people live in Malysia. And beside that there are many Chinese and South Asian people, not sure if they like to watch vlogs like this. It is what it is

its seem rude to me, granted i seem worse from penang, doesn't mean this is not based on the body language, luckily its the young chinese man, if aunty uncle would be much worse
Beda banget sama chinese indonesia yg ramah tamah, bisa bahasa Indonesia & daerah. Berbaur menjadi 1 dengan masyarakat lokal indonesia. Dan mereka jga nasionalis. Itu lah keunikan indonesia.
Jelas beda banget broo, Chinese indonesian lebih sopan dan ramah ketimbang Chinese malaysia
Hello Cina tempat kau pun mati kena bantai dah lupa ?
Kerusuhan Mei 1998 di medan dan Jakarta .. kau ingat orang Malaysia ni bodoh ?
Kes pulau rempang tu apa pula? Rakyat sendiri dibantai pemerintah kamu . Hanya seorang Cina bernama tony winata habis rosak rakyat Melayu di Indonesia .
Karena Chinese Indo itu sudah terkombinasi budaya Dan tradisi jawadwipa yang mengedepankan adab sopan santun, andap ashor marang liyan
Indonesians always take advantage of some bad incidents in Malaysia. Smh.
They forgot there were worse incidents in Indonesia whereby Indon acting like some uneducated thugs
Its not Carlos fault, the the lady making the banh mi said he could sit there. And then when he tried to order from the shop a drink, they didnt understand their own menu and fobbed him off several times.
Mis understanding.. Don't be sad carlos😢
I wasn't sad, cause the food was quite good 😃
@@WildCARLOSappeared 😄okay
Shop owner (Chinese) workers(foreign)Myanmar, vietnam,Indonesia.
You were in Chinatown of Penang. That's why you are experienced this rudeness. I would avoid this part of town. Also, the food item @8:38 is called "banh mi", an iconic Vietnamese food. It's interesting that the Chinese would copy anything that's popular, then ruin the original taste!
I think it's a "ataheitte apple"(Kedondong in Indonesia) taste like raw grass and usually added sour plums
pack meant to be packing (for take away)
Yeah that's what I also thought. I just heard that expression for my first time
Hi there Carlos. Just as local Malaysian from KL like a me who had worked and stayed there. My best advice is stay clear of eating at those coffee shops insisting to ordering drinks over there. Instead you could just do a takeout and head to somewhere else. Honestly, I can tell you that there is no such thing as to force a customer/tourist to order drinks in KL or even in JB. The only sign you will see at most is no outside food, but a must to order drink is uncalled for. This coffeeshop owners are just too bloody profit oriented and they care less about the quality of service. Lastly, do visit places where locals eat and try to avoid touristy food places cause you will later notice the overprice differences.
For those who curious, that cafe name is Xi Nan Cafe.
Thank you, avoid at all cost
Luckily, it was not "Nan Xi " in Cantonese! 😂
Thanks. Planning to go penang soon and will avoid this place. Also strange that some defensively advice that this is normal and expect foreigners to learn the "culture". Rudeness is not a malaysian culture. Its just an isolated bad behavior.
Lmao been there. Service was usual for me as a local. So surreal that it got bad rep
Thank you. Will patronize that place to see for myself.
Go to west Malaysia, Sarawak,you will find more delicious food,like kolo mee,Laksa Sarawak and more,we friendly here
That's on my list for my next visit to Malaysia actually 🤗
He had ordered food and was eating at the restaurant, he already had a drink at the table, and ordered another drink at the restaurant but was told to leave if he didn't order a drink at the restaurant😢 what a rude service😢
He is not that bad. I think its just miscommunication. Plus people in different cultures, they are not expecting you to tip.
In indonesia owner will be happy if there is a foreigner sit in their table even the foreigner did not order. They will taking photo with the foreigner as promotion for their shop.
This is something what I generally don't understand. If there's someone filming, obviously making a video for youtube, why the owners or staff don't try their best to satisfy that customer? I mean I don't expect being treated like a king and that's not the point. But it can be a pretty good move to get some more customers in the best case. Or even many more customers. Instead most of the staff is just lazy or they just give you an average customer service. At least if I was a restaurant owner, I would take the chance. And beside that it can be so much fun for both having a meaningful conversation or just joke around a bit
Most of the workers who serve in this video are Indonesians lol.. those who refuse to serve are also like Indonesians.. this is the Malaysian Chinese area,malay Malaysia will not work in Chinese stalls because the food is haram.. most of them are Indonesian workers..
As a Penang citizen i hate those kind of "Kopi Tiam" Coffee Shop owners. They force people to order something to eat from the stalls and they are brutal. You did order though, he is just terrible at English and didn't really know how to proper handle the situation. I hope you enjoyed the rest of Penang.
Penang was nice. But the food is a bit overrated in my opinion. What do you think?
@@WildCARLOSappeared
Indeed, Penang food is so, so only.
Nothing really special. 😅
@@WildCARLOSappeared totally agree with you the food is way overrated we went to many popular places and was disappointed
This happened to me in Penang too when I visited in 2017. I only ordered food. Did not want to order a drink- but the drinks guy was pissed. I had a medical condition which meant I could only drink sterilised water- which I drank from my water bottle- which I sterilised every evening……I was super paranoid about eating and drinking in Georgetown- I had never seen so many rats in my life! The food tasted good- but the rats really put me off my food….
I am sorry to hear about your medical condition. But to be fair and honest, foods and drinks are usually not under the same business operators in most coffee shops setup in Malaysia. The drinks are usually sold by the coffee shop owners who supply the space and tables and chairs, also rent out the stall to different food hawkers. Being able to make a few bucks here and there from customers who eat there is part of their small business operations. Just sharing that so you are aware and understand the cultural differences, And if you are concerned about the hygiene of street foods or hawkers, and I would also suggest you go to more established dine-in restaurants or fast foods. There are plenty of such options in Penang/Malaysia.
sorry bout that,unfortunately most chinese kopitiam are operate like this, we local already accustomed to this kind of culture, not saying this is good, but there's nothing to be done, but most eatery like cafe or malay operate one would be much more friendly than chinese kopitiam,some hawkers street food do have hygiene problem i agree with that, i also suggest only to visit dine in restaurants since u have medical condition, do give malaysia another chance next time
Then, respect the restaurant's rule and pay RM$2.00 for using its premises. Don't you know when Angmos go to less developed country, they think their five-cent coin is as big as the wheel of a bullock cart?
@@GoodGood-vb8gm This system is stupid. Why confuse tourists with such a system? Nobody is disputing the drinks stall holder's right to get payment, but since the food stall holders are his tenants, the rent is already baked into the food prices. Besides, I shouldn't get aggravation from the drinks' stall due to a medical condition.
Rats? In which month have you been there? I was there from January to February and I saw almost zero!
It's merely a misunderstanding. Since English is not their native language, it's helpful to speak slowly and use complete sentences. For instance, saying "I want to order a nutmeg juice" will ensure clarity, as the word "nutmeg" may sound like other words, causing confusion.
Stop condoning. That Chinese guy was rude.
In Indonesia, regardless of ethnicity, they have the same friendliness, bro. Sometimes the only problem is language, but I think they try to remain friendly 😊😊
With language barriers it's more fun usually 😀 even though more complicated too
@@WildCARLOSappeared Yes, bro, because in Indonesia there are many languages, there are many characters, so every time you visit a place in Indonesia, it's like in other countries, bro...

Nutmeg drink❌
Not make drink ✅
😂😂😂😅😅
I cant blame the guy in blue tbh. They clearly didnt understand what you said when you mentioned 'nutmeg' because of your accent. You need to stop and think where you went wrong Carlos. In the end the guy still recommended you a juice and you loved it
Nahh the worker is rude, even when the white guu asking the girl for it she was just showing an act of rude and dont care and no care at all and even the chinese man is rude and showing an act of rude, they dont represent malaysia i think these guys is chinese from china and chinese in mlysia, you dont to that to a customer who wants to order a drink for the 5 time and you show them you dont care? Wtf is that
@@fidprudentialbsn45 I hope u're not racist with one of ur sentence,a country/race doesn't define all of the ppl from there,some can be rude but there are ppl that are not,ppl are not born to be that way,but was learn to be that way. Imagine being called rude bcs ppl judges on where u are from and not who u urself are
now next thing,
tbh it's a lil rude for the girl in the store to just hand the ordering to the blue shirt guy but if I didn't hear it wrongly,she said no more(nutmeg) then call the blue shirt guy to take his order,the blue shirt guy may misunderstood that when the guy said nutmeg and that he thought he said he had a nutmeg drink before coming to his store and eat ,that's why he said he don't care and asked the guy to order a drink(it does sound rude,it could be a language barrier prob or he was actually rude but I honestly can't rly say much based on this vid)
Tho based on this vid,I think he's not that rude, like blue shirt guy gave the change/apology cents to him and showing thank you gesture ,and in one scene where this guy showed the blue shirt guy taking someone's order,he was asking calmly and pointing the menu with manner to a customer
No hate but when yt guy said he ordered 5 time,u can't rly blame it all on the blue shirt guy,alot of shops like this have foreign workers that don't speak English,some can't even speak bm/mandarin,some shop owner do teach them some basic words in certain language for taking order purposes but some dont even do that,plus I think some of the ppl he asked doesn't even work at that shop hence no order was taken.
ik it's long but it is to prove my point/opinion in this vid

yes this is indeed rude, granted it can be way worst if its the uncle aunty from kopitiam, but overall most eatery by malay is friendly, u can look into other malaysia travel video if u dont believe me, the problem is chinese kopitiam culture problem and we local already accustomed to that, but u can totally avoid it by not visiting any of the kopitiam if u do not like it, overall the people are still nice and friendly here

Tourist should come to visit Sarawak. You will feel the difference in courtesy, polite and friendly attitude where you hang around compare to penang. I agreed that most of them doing business with a rude and unfriendly way. Everything is about money. This is the only state in Malaysia that you should not consider for holidays. Rude, bad attitude and you are forced to purchase drinks or else you need to pay for entrance fee even you order food but yet serve you with the unwelcome behaviour. This will not happen to Sarawak at all. You will love Sarawak after your visiting. Food is much cheaper and people here are courtesy and you are freely to sit anywhere without paying anything and always being welcome without paying anything when entering any food parade here. No one will force you to purchase any food or drinks. No crap policies like penang. Should boycott visiting Penang food parade. Teach them a lesson when they don’t have business.
Hi friend, unfortunately I have experienced the same in food courts in Sibu, Sarawak too. Same thing, no drinks ordered, no seating. However Sarawak is a much friendlier place than Penang for sure.
Food is cheaper?? U sure??

Please ask them, He came peacefully and well to your place, please respect tourists who behave well not chase away
He had already ordered food, why did they insist him to order a drink as well? Very rude society.
tbh with the accent, "nootmeg" doesn't sound the same as nutmeg to someone whom first language isnt english. It kind of sounded like "not make drink"... But the staff could have handled it better.
I agree with you with both 💪🏼
What nonsense, the vlogger clearly started that he ordered a drink so how does any sane person can think he said “not make drink”? Stop condoning such rude people in Malaysia.
Dear Carlos,
As a Malaysian I'm truly sorry about what happened to you... It is not Malaysian hospitality but sometimes the language barrier do become a problem when they don't understand what you're trying to say.
Still some people just don't know how to treat others nicely... I'm really sorry for that...
I hope you don't feel regret coming to Malaysia just because one man's action. Malaysia is actually a very great place for you to explore...some glitches are normal but I hope you enjoy staying here....
Amboi. Sampai mcm ni. Jgn soft sgt.
13:43 you can keep replaying the incident when Carlos was approached by the guy with glasses (X) and put yourself in the X's shoe. Was X really rude? X was trying to explain but X was labeled rude right away. If X was a rude person, X would not be entertaining the other foreigners, isn't it.

No! Malaysian mind! This is politeness that we should all practice, especially in food and service industry. I personally hate this type of rude person too! U have a mouth and language to explain, especially to tourist! Should boycott this kind of rude owner!
@@starletlianhua4235 Is most of the local Penang mind. For those who live out of Penang I can say most of them don’t accept this type of culture. Living cost at KL Selangor is much more higher than Penang, but kopitiam owner will not forcing customer to order beverage.
We do not practice such uncivilized business etiquette in Kuala Lumpur and klang valley
Bs. That's a horrible mentality to have. No way anyone should learn from them. I was born and raised here in Penang and this is NOT how you treat people. If I was treated this way which thankfully I haven't because there's no pronunciation barrier...I won't let them treat me that way.
I have a question for you. I’m due to go to KL in December for 4 days. Solo female traveller. KL doesn’t look too friendly would I be better heading to penang? First time solo so have some apprehensions
Sorry for interjecting but you'll be absolutely fine travelling alone. I did it recently and I'm doing it again very soon, so as a female just use your common sense and intuition in situations and more importantly know your currency conversion so you don't get scammed on prices.
Travel light and act confident in any situation. Use your gut instinct and walk away if it doesn't feel right. Don't tell people you're travelling alone it's none of their business. You're meeting your husband, brother, best friend etc but also don't overthink it. You'll have a wonderful time and feel independent and liberated. I admire you and hope you have many amazing adventures. The world is your oyster so don't avoid one place over another unless the locals have advised that it's dangerous. Safe travels 😀

You really need a Malaysian Chinese person to show you around what's food to get. Also yea the cafe can be strange to order sometimes. So jealous you in Malaysia - I can't wait to go back there again. The problem with Malaysia is that you can only eat so much per day.
Silly Carlos. Making food video but picky ASF!
Going to Penang but going for Vietnam food! What a dingdong

The shop guy should give a drinks menu for the customer to order…case solved
I am not a Malaysian. But I think this blogger is a petty fellow. There will always be people who are less intelligent and who lack social grace. That chap would not have been working as a waiter in a coffee shop if he had been otherwise.There is no need to post his faces on social media for the whole world to see and to shame him. I guess this is your way of taking revenge.
Lol... Its ur accent...nutmeg not nootmeg
Yeah you're right 😅
the waiter misunderstands your pronunciation. actually he should not ask to dine out if you dont order beverage from them..
Also earlier on there is a lady, but that lady is not local malaysian, she is a foreigner. we as locals also sometimes find it hard to communicate with them as well.. so due to communication barrier, it's recommended to point at the menu on what you really want.

The drink wasn't bad to be fair 😀
Hi Brother, please don't let this ruin your food journey here. However, in the Shop Owner's defense, most restaurants all over the globe doesn't allow outside food and drinks...
This is quite common and it is not something new or exclusive to this restaurant...
If you insist on bringing in your own drinks, then it is common to follow the house rules and pay for corkage...
Please try our Chicken Satay, Lamb Satay, Nasi Lemak, Nasi Kandar and Lamb Dumpling if you get the opportunity...
seems like he gets the rules....Guy's after a nutmeg juice,but the stall guy is a bit dodgy with the English...got this selective English thing going on stuff like that..The stall guy ain't catching what he's on about and now the owner's angry thinking the guy wants to sit without ordering drinks. Tough break.
@@harris4874 Yes Brother, I understand, but having traveled so much "The Tourist" should have been able to understand and adjust to the dynamics of a fast paced normal, street side local Coffee Shop... Most coffee shops/ restaurants depend on their peak hours to make the most money and in order to do that, they have to be fast and efficient and they need all the customers to order as fast as possible. If they are out of Nutmeg Juice, the customer should quickly choose another drink option instead of wasting the owner's time by occupying the seat of another potential customer...
I'm not trying to be rude, but a little understanding from the tourist would have solved this issue...
Having said that, the lady who tried to take the order initially did seem a little too agitated and impatient which might have triggered such a reaction from the Tourist in the first place...
In this case, the lady should have been more polite and welcoming instead of being so agitated and unwelcoming... I say it's a mistake on both sides...
It's HILARIOUS to me.
You blamed your CUSTOMER because of your own poor command of English.

I am a local I also don't know. Maybe just this restaurant. I don't order drink too unless I fell like it.
Ha, this kopitiam and this server. So familiar. I stayed at the hotel next door for 3 months and almost ate here everyday, either inside the kopitiam or at the night hawker stalls. The food isn't very healthy and the drinks sweetened. Developed some health issues later. And this male server, I remembered him. He refused to speak to me in Penang Hokkien. Instead only speak in Mandarin, which I am not well versed in. He did it over and over despite me speaking to him in Hokkien. Maybe he is a cyborg covered with human flesh n skin. Programmed to think only one way. Lack of customer friendliness. I sympathize with Carlos. Unfortunately, this guy seemed incorrigible. Unlike the bar in the 1980's US sitcom Cheers, where everybody knows your name, imo here in Lebuh Carnavon food street, they only know what is in your wallet. Spoilt rotten by tourists, I suspect. The food here is mediocre on average with a few good stalls. Am now a local resident and I avoid coming here anymore. 3 straight months eating here is enough. There are plenty of better eating places with cheaper prices and where the 'everybody knows your name' attitude still prevails, here in Penang. Just being a transient youtuber on a few days whirlwind visit ain't gonna allow one to truly savor the heartland of Penang. Just like Singapore, where the best experiences are in the heartland, not the usual tourist spots.
Why would you expect everyone to know how to speak a language/dialect that isn't taught at school? Hokkien isn't taught at school bruh, mandarin is. His mother tongue might not be Hokkien, only learn mandarin Chinese at school. Why you sound like those white people screaming "Speak English!!!" at anyone who are speaking other languages when you can actually speak mandarin?
Penang one of the unfriendly environment especially in Chinese culture
