what gear do you guys use to record?
The cendol in Penang, it is the original taste of cendol..cendol, cooked coconut milk, palm sugar, shaved ice & kidney bean.....
nice tops! where u get them
@@saralacy5133 Uniqlo. Got em 3 pieces for 70rm. It's actually an inner wear for winter, they got it sale this summer. But im using it as one piece T-shirt ☺️
The tops we are wearing in this video are from ASOS Basics (Adriana) and Dylan is wearing Tommy Hilfiger 🤗
The ideal way to order a nasi kandar would be first to tell them you would like to have nasi kandar, then choose the type of rice (white or bryiani - not all places have briyani tho) then choose the protein and sides, eg. Fried chicken, black beef (sounds weird but its delicious), squid, then the vegetables, and then ask them for mixed gravy/sauce or kuah campur in Malay (pronounced champur, C is pronounced as CH in Malay). What makes Nasi Kandar special is the mixed gravy, its pretty unique to the region. Hope u guys get another chance to try nasi kandar.
Oh I see!! Thank you very much 🤗🤗 We will have to try it again 😅😍
Yes, it should be in one plate. Try to google how it looks like on a normal plate.
Perfect! 😎👍
Actually, 'Campur'..no need to pronounced 'ch', just 'c', like you pronounced 'cendol'...
Nasi Kandar is great with Fish Curry esp in Penang, fish eggs, sotong (squid) , beef rendang, or more tender different types of curry chicken. Vege like steamed or chopped ladies fingers, or green veggies and top with Pappadum crackers goes well.
If in Georgetown, Penang I will inevitably do these two things :
1. Breakfast at Transfer Road - "roti canai ayam set" or "roti goyang" and teh tarik
2. Lunch at Kapitan Restaurant, Chulia Street - chicken tandoori and garlic naan bread washed with their "susu badam" (almond milk)
Oh brilliant!! Thank you for the recommendations! We have already gone to kapitan (we really enjoyed it 😍😍)
The Hokkien mee you had is called Prawn Mee in Kuala Lumpur. In Kuala Lumpur, Hokkien Mee is black in colour with thick yellow noodles. Btw the Nasi Kandar should have had mixed gravy and some more vegetables. Should try again at Hameediyah's Nasi Kandar. Theirs is much more authentic.
Oh thanks for the recommendations! We definitely should try it again! 🤗🤗
@@2Passports1Dream No worries. Btw do try Char Kuey Teow also. It a rice noodle dish that originates from Penang and the best ones can be found in Penang too!
Yes correct in selangor / kl we named it prawn noodles. But in penang they called it hokkien noodles. But the confusion starts here. In kl or selangor hokkien noodles are dark soy and light soy sauce with pork lard, vege, fish cake, prawns, meat.
🇲🇾😍Food in Malaysia are delicious and healthy so enjoy that guys 😍👏
We love it!! Thank you 🤗🤗
I personally like to eat my ABC unmixed because mixing makes the ice melt faster and I also like it when every scoop you take from a different side of an unmixed ABC is a different taste with different ingredients being scooped. 😋
Yea, we thought the same, but it still melted so fast!!
@@2Passports1Dream Yeah it has been really hot lately, so maybe that's why the ABC melted so quickly. Since you guys have a sweet tooth, you can try this dessert called Muah Chee. It's similar to the Japanese dessert mochi which is steamed sticky glutinous rice dough cut into small pieces coated with sugary grinded peanut. You can probably find a stall that sells it in gurney drive in the evening
Subscribed to your channel for promoting Malaysian food and culture. Thank you.
Thank you so much 🤗😍🇲🇾
Another great video….thanks guys! I need to take notes of all these yummy dishes 😍
Heheh definitely! Thank you so much for watching 🤗😍
It is so good to see your videos for the content and of course for the presentation. This one shall surely be of real use to me when I m there in Penang 11th of this month for three days . Thank you so much. Keep sharing your experiences for the traveling community.
That’s so nice to hear, thank you so much! 😍🤗 We really appreciate that!
Malaysia has such great food and friendly people. Currently in Penang for the next few days. 🥰
Yes they do! 🥰
Another great video. I have always liked it. Your videos are always interesting. Thank you Adriana and Dylan.👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much 🤗😍
Nasi kandar normally served with mix curry on rice (ur rice covered by curry frm the display counter)
Oh I see!!!
My favorite food in Georgetown is rojak, at 101 Rojak place. Using your hand to eat enhances the flavor, so go for it, that is the right way. Just remember you can only use your right hand, never the left one.
Hehe it’s a shame for Adriana since she is left handed!! Thank you for the recommendation! 😍
Just discovered your channel. Very nice videos and I like how your reactions are genuine and so innocent. Love the content.
Thank you so much 🤗😍
i came here after my lecturer told me to check out your channel and yes all his students now are coming here 😂 Keep up your good work and keep promoting Malaysia. Surely we will keep watching your videos. Hope to have meet and greet 😆
Haha no way?? 😂😍 That’s so awesome! Thank you very much for watching 🤗🇲🇾
Great, now i'm hungry again (and I just had lunch )
Thanks for the vid. I'll be sure to check some of these venues when there.
Hahah!! It was all so yummy! Definitely do 😍🤗
cool selection of food! It looked awesome!
Thank you so much 🤗
Thanks another great vlog from my favourites
Thank you 🤗🤗
Hello. Nice to see you guys. The other green drink that the shop owner recommended is made from Amra fruit also known as kedondong fruit.
Thanks for sharing!
You are correct,if you eat ice kachang,you scoop a bit of everything and eat them. At some stage it will melt and so you need to start sipping the mixture water.
Heheh it was a tasty one 😍
Love your editing, nice drone footage.keep up the great work 👍
Much appreciated! Thank you!
I love Georgetown... on a morning l would go to a outside food stall and get a proper cup of tea and a freshly made samosas...also The Red Garden food court is fantastic great stalls ( Anthony Bourdain had been there) had the best chicken satay done on a proper bbq ever .. the peanut sauce was the best I've ever had .
Sounds amazing. Georgetown is great!
Yes the two cities Anthony Bourdain loved most in Malaysia were Penang and Kuching, cause two of his best food in Southeast Asia comes from these two cities - namely, Asam Laksa and Sarawak Laksa.
For authentic asam laksa, there is a market in air itam near kek lok si temple. Can try that. I heard the late anthony bourdain ate there.
Just wanted to say love watching u make it fun and the food did look so good thank you have fun
Hehe thank you so much! All the food was awesome 🤗😍
Love Penang food! Hokkien Mee and Laksa used to cost around RM2~ about 20 years ago.. thanks to inflation it’s about doubled. Anyway, love your videos and enjoy Malaysia, looking forward to more videos!
Oh wow - that’s epic! Thank you so much! 🤗😍
Well they're going to be 6 ringgit (the way to pronounce it is 'ring-gate' ) in a few months... In KL they already are, and getting higher..
@@ashtriana1 yikes that’s bad.. thanks for sharing. Wasn’t aware prices have creep up so much until now.
hi, you can check ichang rm nasi kandar video, how to order nasi kandar like a pro. but for sure the price will be more than usd2
Aha thanks for the recommendation! 🤗
If you like a sweet drink, you have to try an iced Milo at any coffee/tea shop. It is really popular in Malaysia and the taste is especially amazing there. Keep up the great vids!
That sounds amazing!! Thank you for the recommendation! 🤗
And mix your drinks before drinking. Drinks served in Malaysia are not mixed, you have to do it yourself otherwise sugar will all be at the bottom
Haha the fun part is it being unmixed. Drop the straw to the bottom and you get a hit of super strong sweet warm choclately goodness, then as you lift the straw higher you can modulate the strength towards an refreshing hit of ice at the top. Try sliding the straw while you suck. Also after it seems like the drink is over, go back ot it a few minutes later after the ice has melted a bit and you get a bonus refreshing icey milky goodness to cleanse your month.
Not just any iced Milo … go for the Milo Dinosaur or Milo Tunggang
@@jamiecampbell1271 wow you have mastered the art of drinking Malaysian drinks, I bow to you 😁
1:40 "Teh" pronounce is origin from Hokkien province dialect, and most china tea was export and plant in Hokkien before it start plant globally.
Yet another super interesting and yummy food tour, and so nice to see a little bit of the city as well.>The hokkien mee looked awesome; and he desserts are so different from what you're used to! Great filming! The guy spooning up the chendol is epic 💦💦
Thank you so much!! The food was absolutely amazing - we would have the hokkien mee again in a heartbeat! ❤️❤️
I am very happy to see most of your videos, some of it I watched twice....cant wait to see your perhentian trip...hopefully you have a wonderful day...
Oh wow thank you so much!!! 🤗
TQ for an excellent video n it shows a true malaysian life. I love how you pronounced all the local words correctly. 👍👍👍
Oh that’s so great to know! Thank you so much 😍🤗
If you plan to stay longer in Malaysia, I recommend you visit Terengganu too😁🤙...you can try nasi dagang,keropok lekor(fish crackers),satar,and celup tepung. "Celup tepung" is a fried food that is dipped into flour to get a crunchy texture, it comes in 3 types of food options namely fish, squid, and shrimp.
Thank you so much for the recommendation! 🤗🤗
Also i suggest if you want visit johor you must try goreng pisang=banana fried with sambal kicap only have in johor with sambal kicap, another state don't have this😋its very delicious or you can eat pisang goreng cheese= banana fried cheese,in johor best food is asam pedas(is very spicy compare to another state in Malaysia .
Food is delicious 😋 love your videos ❤️❤️
Thank you so much!! 🤗🤗
hi, since you guys at the north, i would recommend you visit ipoh and cameron highland
@23:07 it is Grass Jelly, locals calls in cincau in the South and Lengkong in the North. Your 'Sarsi' could be gula Melaka or palm sugar.
Thanks for sharing this absolutely wonderful video n your food explorations in Penang, all under USD2 each dish. All d food u guys had r lovely, d prawn noodle, cendol, asam laksa, nasi kandar, ice kacang. Value for money.
D cendol u guys had is d original cendol version, without durian n ice cream.
D asam laksa is synonym to its name. Asam is a Malay word for sour.
I'm not sure what veg u guys referred to in d asam laksa. D asam laksa is normally garnished with veg n herbs ie shredded lettuce, cucumber, onion, red chillies, mint, ginger torch n pineapple.
D veg with d nasi kandar, could be bitter gourd, didn't have a close look to d veg.
D two green drinks, one is asam, u guys know it already means sour, n other one u said ambarella, a sourish fruit, it's called kedondong in Malay.
Chandol from the indian people. Ice kacang chinese. In a malay stall ABC :- Ais Batu Campur. And if you see ABC soup. An ABC soup recipe is Asian and very common in Malaysian and Chinese cuisines. ABC soup stands for vitamins A, B & C from carrots, potatoes and tomatoes.
Oh interesting!! Thanks for letting us know 🤗🤗
We arrived today! Jan 13/23. Going to follow your food route tomorrow!
Amazing! Hope you really enjoy it, the first one is my fave!
Hopefully you will visit Kuching East Malaysia Sarawak n enjoy d food too . Sarawak is famous for it's Laksa Sarawak, kolok Mee n many more.....🤗👍🍜
In Penang you should try to order Pat Poh Ping or Pat Poh Nai Ping (with Milk). It is something only in Penang. Its basically think herbal syrup made into a beverage. PING is basically Ice.
Ohhhhh interesting!! 🤗😍
Please pay a visit to pasar lebuh cecil if possible, local market with plenty of food to try.
The green drink is made from ambarella known in sri lanka (june plum) In the caribbean it is known as golden apple. In Malaysia it is also called Buah Kedondong
Northern Malay dialect calls kedondong as ambra. Never knew the word actually came from ambarella.
Oh interesting! 😍🤗 it was so tasty!!
great video! ais kacang( ka- chang) needs to be eaten quickly here bcos of the heat 😄 we need to continuously mix- scoop- eat- repeat before the ice melts and overflows. you could try mixing it by scooping fr outside & folding it in.. but gently.. agree with you- dont prefer sarsi/ root beer syrup in my ABC
Heheh definitely is a quick one to eat before it overflows 😂 it’s so hot so it melts fast!! It was tasty but would probably prefer it with it the syrup next time!
@@2Passports1Dream totally agree wiith you! im sure u guys will find an original palm sugar syrup ABC soon.. enjoy yr stay & God bless!
Everything looks so yummy 🙏🙏
Hah it was!!
Rojak Pasambor popular in Penang
Hi hi, FYI< the prawn noodle (vermicilli) best eaten hot (+ a special sambal sauce, if available there) to avoid being soggy when left idle just for few minutes
Ooooh I see! 😍 It was soooo yummy
The ambar juice or kedondongjuice (what is Kedondong? (Well you can google it out. ilove kedondong juicewith asamboi at kedai ikan bakar at kepalaBatas nearby
I love the cendol. Once we got there just as it was opening, and we got first dibs. soo niceeee.
Oh cool!! It’s so tasty 😍
The ice kacang dessert used Sarsi syrup (similar taste to root beer) as the base
Ohhhhh I see!! That makes sense 🤗🤗
The original cendol is this one...quite runny....the one in Malacca is the upgraded one I guess.....,..in Penang ,they called it ice kacang for cendol
Oh interesting!! Both were tasty but so different from eachother!
Not far from that cendol stall you're having there's an uncle selling roasted chestnuts. down the alley from the roasted chestnuts there's a couple more stalls & restaurant selling nasi padang, roti bakar (toasted bread), cucur udang (prawn fritters of some sort), and fried fruit fritters such as banana, sweet potato etc
We saw so many roasted chestnuts!! We normally have them at Christmas time hehe 😅 Thank you for all the recommendations!
@@2Passports1Dream hehehe 😅😅anyhow do enjoy Penang. There's a whole loads type of food there. Another one of my favorite is called Rojak Buah, and I frequent a stall at a place called Gurney Drive and the stall name is G.P Soon. There's also other stalls there that sells varieties of local delicacies be it by malay chinese or indian 😍
Great video guys!!! Hello from Australia Perth
Thank you❤️
Hello!! Thanks for watching 😍🤗
Nasi Kandar... the way to go about it, go through the counter u see all the different dishes, the server usually will ask "nasi biasa ka nasi bryani" means white rice or bryani rice... then proceed for the type of kuah "sauce" u want... most general, u can just say, "kuah campur" means mix sauces... then u can proceed for the proteins and vege or condiment u want... as for kuah or sauce, my fav, is madu(honey-a sweet based sauce), kurma and curry...
Oh I see, thanks for letting us know! It sounds like we really need to try it again!
@@2Passports1Dream go for ayam goreng rempah (spice fried chicken) always the best if u saw they just pick it up from the pan... and all the best in experiencing one of Malaysian favorite dish...especially in penang....
For nasi kandar, Hameediyah or Deen Maju is a good place to start but long queues, especially on the weekend
Oh thank you for the suggestion!
[kan.dar] | کندر
Definisi : kayu yg diletakkan di bahu utk menggalas atau memikul barang (yg tergantung di kedua-dua hujung kayu), galas; mengandar membawa barang dgn kandar, memikul, menggalas: maka diambilnya kayu oleh Seri Rama dikandarnya dua ekor kijang. (Kamus Dewan Edisi Keempat)
Oh interesting! Thank you 🤗🤗
For nasi kandar you can ask for kuah campur (mixed gravy) to full enjoy it.
Oh I see! Thank you!
Great video! Please try Deen Maju nasi kandar at Jalan Gurdwara☺
Hehe there’s so much food to try everywhere 😍
Nice content... I'm just subscribed your channel.. 😊
Thank you so much 😍🤗
Go check out the Nyonya/Baba museum....
As for me..this cendol version looks perfect, compared to the one in KL and Melaka. Cendol should be watery or soupy not creamy.
Heheh interesting! We almost preferred the creamier one 😍😅
right? cendol is after all a type of drink.
Hokkien mee looks so good! Also Dylan’s chew count had me on the floor 😂😂😂🐍 Great good shots 😍
Hahahaha thank you so much 🤗😍
That’s not hokkien me at all. Thats prawn mee.
I love to retire in Penang! Love the prices and food!
Everything looked very interesting. But, the one thing that caught my eye particularly was the assam laksa because it's the only dish of the ones you showcased that I've had. And, it was fairly recent as I ate it for a video that I filmed. And, I couldn't help but compare. Mine was completely different. The broth was only slightly sour; and, it featured tuna. It didn't have pineapple in it but slivers of cucumber. It was fishy; and, that was the dominant flavor. Plus, the noodles were not thick but very thin. Thin rice noodles.
Was it a Penang dish? Apparently they can vary soooo much depending on the area that they are made in! This one is known for being rather sour, for example!
@@2Passports1Dream The assam laksa that I got was from a restaurant here in the U.S. And, it identified the laksa as being Penang style. I think the difference is simply due to the fact that Malaysian food overseas is bound to be different than that from the source (i.e., Penang itself). Anyway, thanks for the video. Safe travels and keep up the good work.
Thin rice noodles... 'Sounds' like Sarawak Laksa
Please visit food museum & the Gravityz
Hi, guys. Never been to Penang since 2018. Will plan vacation in future after October. Enjoy your time there. Who knows, you might meet western tourist vloggers who were already in Malaysia, maybe even from your own country.
Hehehe yeah probably! 🤗
Glad you guys give all those famous Penang famous hawker foods a try, the prawn noodle looks good and inside asam laksa is shallot, mint leaf, cucumber, pineapple, kampung fish meat and you shall mix in the black prawn sauce it will make the soup little sweeter but not like sugar sweet it’s more like seafood sweet. Yeah different places serve cendol slightly different but i personally still prefer Melaka cendol as their gula Melaka are more fragrant. ABC are another local favourite cooling desert as Malaysia weather are hot so we love to eat those ice dessert haha 😂 enjoy your stay in Penang and there are plenty more famous foods to try. Tambun biscuit are pretty good too as we usually buy few boxes for family and friends back in KL or other states after a holiday in Penang
Hehe it was absolutely amazing - after a long hot day the ABC was so good! 😍 We love trying all the new foods! 😍🤗
Hi guys, will you continue to focus on the food market? There are so many in this place already.. I’d love to know more about the places than just time food
We usually like to take a food centered approach to most places that we visit, along other things!! 🤗🤗
Penang laksa should try at air itam near kek lok si temple.
Great video :)
Thank you so much 🤗😍
Wow PENANG ❤️❤️, looks beautiful and of course the food 😋. 😊👏👏
So good
Nice video. Next time go to Kayu Nasi kandar in Bukit Jambul. Get the fried chicken. Ask them to dipped it in kuah madu. Put veggie which is fried cabbage. Then ask them KUAH CAMPUR. they will mixed all the curry together. This is my favourite way to eat nasi kandar in Kayu Nasi kandar. It's really tasty and I will not miss this dish whenever Im in Penang. Try it if you have the opportunity later. Hope u guys have a nice time in Malaysia and please come back.
Oh sounds great! Thank you! We hope to come back some time 😍
You should try the authentic nasi kandar where the rice is supposed to be bathed in lots of different curry sauces and your choice of side dishes.
Yea it's a shame because we really wanted to try the real thing!
Terimakasih
Luv ur videos
Thank you so much 😍🤗
the green drink is sour plum.... the super green drink is a type of lime.
WAH... damn soooooo Envious of you two.. tasting alll those dishes, drinks and sweets... made me Cry.... awesome video, safe travels...
Hehe thank you so much! Everything was soooo tasty! 😍
When you have a bowl of curry with or without meat, you do not pour the whole curry on top of the rice. You scoop on the rice as you eat. Same for the meat.
The asam mentioned with the drink, Asam is malay language to the dried sour plum added to the blended lime juice. Sometimes asam are also added into umbra.
However, Asam in asam laksa is referring to tamarind. The sour taste of the soup is mainly due to tamarind and unripe pineapple.
Oh I see!! It was so delicious 😍
I don't think people use tamarind in asam laksa, probably just for an added sour taste. the asam in asam laksa refers instead it's asam gelugur or arcinia atroviridis (i asked uncle wiki). it's the main ingredient in making laksa. but idk how people in penang make their laksa, because kedah & perlis laksa use mainly asam gelugur.
u can try spoon some soup then put some noodle on top of the spoon. eat the noodle with the soup on the spoon... see u like it o not.
Finally you tried Ice Kacang (ABC)! Actually this is the Penang version of it, that actually has "atap chi" (Atap palm fruit) that is usually pickled with sugar that gives a twist other States of Malaysia don't have.
In the 80s the primary school kids even learned the song of Ice-Kacang. 😂 that is how famous it is as a local ice-shaved dessert.
I think the one you had is rootbeer with rose syrup. In Perak they usually use gula Melaka + rose syrup as the mix. The look alike but taste slightly different.
If you see green ones they are usually cendol. Sometimes comes in bright pink.
Ice-Kacang is meant to have it "sloppy" to the point you can even drink the dessert up, just like Ramly burger the famous "sloppy joe".
And yes, Asam Laksa (of different types from different states), one of the main ingredient is pineapple.
By the way, many Malaysians (probably because of Asam Laksa) actually do not mind the "Hawaian pizza" that is pizza with pineapple on it haha.
Oh thanks for the suggestions! Haha good to know it’s meant to be sloppy… it definitely became it 😂😅 just like the ramly burger haha!
Hello
Usually when we eat nasi kandar you mixed 5 to 7 gravy together with the rice. Not on individual plate. Once you get all the curries on the rice than choose your protein and vegtable. Remember Nasi Kandar the gravy/ curries are mixed atleast 5 types of them . You eat it the wrong way. Pelita is overated. You can go to Hamideeyah or Deen Nasi Kandar. Most famous is Line Clear Nasi Kandar but too pricey. Should also try roti canai Jalan transfer for breakfast
Wow no way!! Hehe sounds awesome 😍😍
Great videos 👍 I usually don’t chewing my food and one day I went into emergency operating room to remove fish bone stuck in my throat.Enjoy Penang
Salute 🙏
Oh wow that sounds really dangerous! I’m always trying to tell Dylan to chew more 😅😅
ambala sour plum drink.
There are a lot of good Nasi Kandar in Penang Island, The nasi kandar should be mixed all into your rice plate.
The sour plum drink was fantastic!! 😍😍😍
And for butter chicken and tandori please try kapitan
We’ve been there for food! Tasty 😍
Both of you pronounciation is marvellous.. good job guys
Oh thank you so much! 🤗🤗
I think not stir enough ..its usually sweet unless u love extra sweet person you should request for sweeter desert they can add little more gula Melacca
Haha good to know 🤗🤗
You guys should come to Borneo Island, another part of Malaysia. We have tonnes of nice food and fruits here which can't be found in Peninsula Malaysia. As well more beautiful places to be visited.
We will one day 🙌
Try the Cendols siblings - ABC n Len Chee Kang.
Oooh but we tried ABC in this video!! 😍
Hi, very nicely filmed video, would like to ask what camera are you using to video? as it looks really stabilized and would you recommend it?
Hello! We use Sony a7c then use the software that comes with it to stabilise all the footage - it’s great!
@@2Passports1Dream thanks for the info, once again great job 👍🏻
It looks like some very interesting food there. I don’t see how the both of youse stay so nice and thin looking and eating so much food 😀👍
Haha we don’t eat crazy amounts every day 😅 Thank you so much 🤗
I really like you food cost videos. I know it's probably a bit more now but it's interesting nonetheless 🤗💞
Thank you!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
The Cendol you eat in Melaka is not the original. There are others in Melaka that are as simple as this chedol in Penang. This one is the common one which you can get in Melaka or anywhere in Malaysia.
The first thing u did right with the Hokkien Mee or they call it Prawn noodle is to finish the soup at the very end. The correct way to eat the noodle is to scoop the soup and noodle in soup spoon and eat it together. Same goes with Laksa, prawn noodle, curry noodle etc. The broth is the soul of every noodle in Penang food that's why the hawker seller don't serve u extra soup(if u notice). Not many Malaysian know this except Penangite. For Nasi kandar, u can try to tell them 'kuah dulu' means mix all the curry sauce in the rice before u choose any dishes(if u like your rice full of curry flavour then u should give it a try). Wish u guys have a nice trip in Malaysia.
Oh great!! Thank you so much 😍🤗
Nasi kandar place you must try: Hameediyah or Deen Maju. The best protein to go with it is Ayam Bawang (onion chicken) and Daging Hitam (black beef). Must ask for kuah campur, thats what makes it a real nasi kandar. Enjoy!
Thank you for the recommendation! 🤗🤗
The middle part in the ais kacang could be root beer syrup.
Makes sense!! 🤗 Tasted just like it!
At nasi kandar restaurant, there are 4,5,or more gravy....each of them has different taste.,,some sweeter ,some Spicer,some savoury....the idea is to have all of those gravy poured into you rice all together,....so the way to order is just say. ...,'kuah campur'.....looks like you only have one type of gravy.....
Oh interesting! Thank you so much 🤗
Malaysians food are authentic and traditionally asians. You can tell by its rich flavors and spices that scream hundreds if not thousand of years of traditions. But never underestimate Malaysians fusion foods, which are combined mixes of malays, indian and chinese influences that are not even available outside Malaysia or Singapore. Examples, roti canai and variants, bak kut teh, teh tarik, cendol, laksa, kaya toast, char kuey teow etc are unique to Malaysia.
So many amazing foods 😍🤗 we really enjoy it!
Nasi Kandar taste best with Kua Campur (Mix Gravy). Teh Tarik are better from Muslim vendors where they really "Tarik" (Pull) the Tea and that's why you get bubble's when it's being served to you.
Oh I see! Thanks for letting us know 😍🤗
that nasi kandar looks so sad lol. as someone pointed out, queue up at the food counter
- choose your rice - white/biryani
- choose whatever u want to eat - proteins, vege, etc
- MIX ALL THE GRAVY :D just tell them "kuah/kari campur" (pronounced 'coo-ah/curry chumpur') and get yourself a nice delicious plate of nasi kandar
- don't forget the pappadoms
Woops. We got it wrong again 😂
We could watch you both all the time and never get tired of it haha 🤗. All of the food (and drinks) looked great but that fish paste noodle soup (can't spell the name and not butcher it) looks sooooo good 😍. Keep sharing withe the world you two 🤗❤
Thank you so much guys ❤️😍 would be even nicer if it was shared with you two (althoigh let’s be honest dessert isn’t for sharing - everyone needs their own! 😂) ❤️
