That is not true. Rendang origin was from Malaka Malaysia. One of the sheikh from Melaka during Malaka Sultanate introduced it to the Minangkabau tribe in Sumatra
The other reason why traditional Malay houses are on stilts is that originally you might have wild animals living in the forest around you so you want to make sure that your house is not easily accessible by animals by making them on higher ground. The elevated position of the house would also help with air flow as the breeze can travel through the house with little obstructions.
True. Animals and flood.
My grandma did say that they build houses on stilts as it would be easier to move the house esp during rainly seasons… she was from melaka..
Ivana you read my mind. I wondered why the sink in middle of restaurant. 😊 14 more sleeps and we board the plane to KL. Can't wait!! ❤️
18:19 absolutely correct Saiful, main reason is flooding and rain. But the other reason is some of the old traditional houses can be moved by lifting it up. All villagers come to help move it ❤
good to see Ivana looking happier and chirpy than the last time both of you were in kl. Sweet couple
try Kak Chuk nasi lemak next 👍🏾

Nasi Lemak Kak Chuk 🍛by Tim Tense
Where is kak chuk's?
Mana lokasi?
Steve is correct, house on stilts because of wetness/water stream formation during raining season.
Grasshopper wont harm you, enjoy your day in Kg Baru
We can eat it if we want..
Traditional houses on stilt due to:
- flooding
- wild animal like wild boar, tigers, crocodile
- and airflow for natural cooling / ventilation (air flow from bottom, through & on top. ❤
My advice, hold your judgement until you try nasi lemak kak chuk, and nasi lemak Tanglin.
Edit: at least they're the most famous in KL(also village park, but you guys have tried that before). You haven't tried the most famous in each state and hundreds of other varieties. Every nasi lemak place you encounter have their own recipes, basically it's trial and error until you find your favourite ones. It's not easy to become the national dish of Malaysia when you have the malay, chinese, indian (chinese and indian food here are quite different from the respective mainland because they're basically Malaysian style) also you have quite a varieties of food from the sabah and sarawak. I'm an ethnic indian in malaysia but if you ask me I'm always Malaysian first, indian next lol. I felt so awkard when i visited the land of my forefathers which is Tamilnadu.
No....wanjo is not really best.
Tanglin and Valley park is likely better.
village park only the fried chicken nice... Nasi Lemak quality is mediocre.
@@AKJY then Nasi lemak Kak Chuk it is
About the houses on stilts, yes, the original purpose was to avoid flood. You'll notice in some states, the stilts are shorter (less flood prone areas), and others are up to 7-8 feet tall (bad floods). The other reason is to avoid wild animals that roams at night, including snakes, wildboars and so on.
During the day, the areas beneath house is used for activities because of the shade. Traditionally Malays are farmers and gatherers, and they do this in the early morning. In the afternoon, they chill underneath the house. Nowadays, these areas are also used as a garage.
So all your assumptions are correct!
Houses built on stilt on the olden day for many reaons. 1.For ventilation 2. Flooding 3. Storage 4. For keeping pets like cows and elephant, yes, elephant in old days, Tanah Melayu once known for exporting elephant by thousands.
Canadian couple spent 5 years exploring Malaysia. You guys really something
You are mistaken, they spent 1 year in Malaysia, during Covid time..
There's a new Nasi Lemak shop in KL called Nasi Lemak Burung Hantu, apparently it is very tasty too and long Q during peak hours. Must get there early to get the main dishes before they run out.
Some enchovies are very hard and not cleaned properly. Some vendors fry it well and cleaned it well, those are the golden brown ones. I like crispy and not hard as rock. Village park is good yes
Yeah, you both are right ..good food at a good place ! It's indeed wonderful to see Steve can handle that sambal bilis and ikan bilis. A big applause to you, Steve. Guess they used good quality ikan bilis. Good review, guys.
u guys are undoubtly Malaysian sweetheart bloggers, Ivana being from Indonesia, our Malaysian sister makes it even more sweet. You are always welcome to ur part time home!
Spot on Ivana, sambal from Wanjo and chicken from Village Park ... you know where to get good food in Kuala Lumpur!
Yes Steve, the Petronas Twin Towers in KLCC are indeed a marvellous architecture.
Thank you for this video. Wonderful. Nasi lemak is definitely a must when you are in Malaysia.
There's another favorite place for locals and foreigners to eat nasi lemak in Kampung Baru, it's Nasi Lemak Kak Chuk.
#MoreToDiscover love that tagline! ❤👍
The best part of the chicken is the thigh (peha). Succulent, juicy & soft! The one that Ivana had was the dried part. The fried chicken at Village Park is actually the thigh! Ask for ‘peha’ guys!
Bilis is anchovies,take the sambal sotong,squid sambal...awesome....
you can't get enough of the place
I knew the chicken would be dry the minute I saw it. Looks cold too. Ayam rempah is good when hot and freshly fried.
Welcome back!
After this try Nasi lemak Village Park...its the best in PJ Petaling Jaya.. Should bring your parents here when they come visit...
They already did
For me the village park is still the best too.
A spoonful of NICE nasi lemak should have:
- nasi lemak
- a bit of sambal
- a piece of ikan bilis
- a fried peanut
- a bit of rendang gravy
- a bit of egg (both yellow & white)
MARVELLOUS!!!❤
A fried peanut, a piece of ikan bilis. Surely u don't mean only ONE peanut n ONE piece of ikan bilis, ha ha!!!
I agree that their chicken is dry. Their begedil is amazing though! You can try them next time!
0:21 - have you tried that Samudera Patin place yet? The dish on the signboard looks like Ikan Patin Masak Lemak Cili Padi, which you'd normally find in Pahang (the famous place is by the river, near the Temerloh bus terminal).
belacan made of mix tiny shrimp. usually sambal nasi lemak has anchovies blend with the dried chillies, onion & garlic
Welcome back bro..☺️👍...
Next go to Nasi Lemak Kak Chuk stall also situated at Kampong Bharu....
Ehhh.. U have been back for 2 weeks already. Time to binge watching. 🎉❤
Ivana:bilis is....😁😁..oh shoot steve doesn't like anchovies😁😁
I tried the nasi lemak at Wanjo last month, I like it too. For my next trip to KL, I want to try the nasi lemak from the warung at Kg. Baru.
You all hv to try nasi lemak jalan Alor in the morning only, at Jalan Bukit Bintang.
I want to go ns lemak wanjo now watching this video.
Ivanna is always cool and sweet looking..
Bilis = ikan bilis = anchovies.
Usually refer to dried anchovies.
All malay cooking and dishes usually use dried anchovies.
Hahaha. I just went there 2 days ago for dinner.. good nasi lemak 👍. Opposite there’s a restaurant kak som serves kelantanese cuisine. Recommend to try too
oh you,re back
You guys should bring Steve's mom here. Hope she'll love it.
For the fry chicken you just need to marinate with a lot of lemon grass, .. tumeric Dan Cummins...with salt.... for at least 2 hour, then fry it
Wanjo is not too spicy. That is why tourists can eat it.
Never been sambal belacan served with Nasi Lemak 😁..just sambal nasi emak itself will do..
I wonder why Wanjo never have peanuts and kangkong (water spinach).. those make it more authentic Malay nasi lemak..
It's either called sambal tumis. sambal ikan bills or just sambal
Hello hello u two! Remember I mentioned once 'jackfruit rendang' at one of ur vids? Jommm let's set a date 🥰
Taste is subjective but I find a lot of versions of nasi lemak available has different attributes. I personally enjoy the diversity in nasi lemak styles in Malaysia. Wanjo is great it’s tasty, the restaurant is efficient and variety of side dishes, for those who prefer less spicy (in fact sweet) sambal, Wanjo is great. Village park nasi lemak takes a pranakan twist to their nasi lemak game, with great fried chicken and sweet styled sambal. Nasi lemak burung hantu is the latest great nasi lemak spot, I’d recommend it to you for the spicy sambal (great kick in it), basmati fragrant coconut rice and great side dishes.
I like Rasa Selatan Nasi Lemak in Kampong Baru.. simple and authentic..even their lontong is delicious..
Sambal belacan is the raw sambal
Sambal for nasi lemak.. usually we call sambal tumis. Which we cooked
And there are many type of rendang in Malaysia. They are diferent taste among the countries.
This couple has traveled every place in malaysia more than us citizens. 🤭
You're right Ivanna, I do prefer nasi lemak ayam berempah at Village Park.
i also agree sambal at village park can be improved
anchovy....yeahhhh....the best would be blue eye anchovy from lumut/pulau pangkor...the blue eye...its rm10/100gram
but it is delicious.... premiummm
They say Wanjo is made for tourist because it's less spicy. I say no, it's made for people like my wife and me who aren't too fond of food being overly spicy
Yup, my family & I love Wanjo as well! The sambal is not too spicy, and a bit sweet. I don't like it if the sambal is too spicy, it would overpower the taste of the rice. But to each their own
@@scizorstar agree. The first time i tried wanjo, the sambal was not spicy at all and it's more to the sweeter side which made me think that i like local nasi lemak in my place more but that's just my opinion
Ya karena masakan malasya diidentikkan dengan rasa yang biasa tidak Kuat aroma itulah kenapa ada copy makanan dari negara lain.
Bandingkan Makanan asal muasalnya yg dimana masakan itu diidentifikasi masakan kuat rempah dan bumbunya tentulah yang memasak dari Sukunya.
Sbb itu Rendang Nasi Lemak kalau di Indonesia pedas karena memang identik masakan Indonesia asli pada umumnya. 😊
Identitas haruslah berakar dari mana asal makanan itu sehingga itulah aslinya 😊
@@suhanjayalian5044haih ada je si Irinesia ni 😂
@@suhanjayalian5044yih kenapa ada nasi lemak dekat indon pulak?? Jangan cuba nak tiru makanan kami ya !! Copy itu tiru kamu tak tahu bahasa kebangsaan ke?? Kesian!!
Am i dreaming ? U guy are back horaayyy
Should try their fry patato! Very nice!
Infront wanjo nasi lemak you can try lontong alfiyah just inside stable steak ..only morning they sell..8 am until 11...lontong ,pegedil,rendang daging,..also try kuih lopez with gula melaka sugar...very nice... Alfiyah lontong just beside kak som...
I think you guys have probably explored Malaysia more than me😅
Wanjo is feveret place for tourist. Very expensive. I prefer nasi lemak Alor at Bukit Bintang
Mantap 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
when i go KL i always craving for their nasi lemak
Always ❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for remembering Minutes 6:50, that Warung in a kampong, Kelantan!😊
My fav warung in Malaysia... when I mentioned warungs in this video, I wanted to put those clips :)
Congratulations Steve for the achievement of eating the ikan bilis and enjoying it. Hip Hip Horaaaayyyyy..... 3 cheers for Steve.... hahahahhaha
Welcome back..or welcome home
Have you try nasi lemak in Negeri Sembilan?
For any food using coconut, you should try it at Negeri Sembilan. Try at Rembau, Kuala Pilah or Jelebu
Waw it's so delicious 😋 nasi lemak Wanjo kg Baru KL. Have great day Steve Ivana ♡ let's explore ahead ⚘️⚘️
You had me at grasshopper😲😲😲😲😲😲
sambal bilis means anchovy sambal, ikan bilis is anchovy in Malay
The best rendang is in Padang actually because of the ingredients and how they cooking...
Go to Restoran Anis Puteri, Pantai Dalam KL...probably one of the best Kelantan Restaurant in KL, try their specialty Daging Gulai Kawah....
ikan bilis has a lot of grade and type .... in sabah there a lot of of type you can buy .... the ikan bilis they use seem in top grade and quite big and they cook it properly so it stay crispy
Yeah when Ivana was cutting the chicken, i can tell it's dry. Usually, vendors like these don't make good fried chicken breast, that's why it's always better to opt for dark meat like drumstick or thigh.
Go to Mutuara Damansara for authentic sarawakian cuisine at Salted restaurant. Its affordable of course. Run by a cousin of mine,Sofya. Try it out..
Miss 2 of you,
I would totally agree with Ivana. Ayam goreng at village park is way better ❤ U know ur nas lemak!
Bilis is.....hahahaaa Ivana..!!
🤭🤭🤭🤫🤫🤫😍
Hai jet....plezz come to hero market alam megah at syeksyen 27 Shah alam...
WanJo people, WanJo
Went there last year but only chicken wing, egg and spicy archovies left. The chicken wing is tasty. There is AC room but have to pay RM 1.00.
Volta pro Brasil algum dia 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Wanjo is actually just decent popular Nasi lemak
ikan bilis = anchovies. Bilis is the name of the fish.
Yeah Sambal bilis is anchovies sambal
Try looking into our art scenes too.
I totally agree with Eva! wanjo's sambal is better and fried chicken will be village park!
What a beautiful grasshopper
Was Kampong Baharu, now is Kampung Bahru. That's that.
You should try village park nasi lemak in uptown PJ run by Chinese.
Come on steve.. If Ken already can handle seafood, its time for you to eat anchovies 😅
COYG
I already eat Wanjo Nasik lemak. But in my place have more tasty authentic nasi lemak ever...
After you guys went to N9 and hit those spicy food, these sambal is nothing to steve.
Klu hg nk tgk rmh tradisional hg patut p kuala nerang
0:46 imagine this grasshopper going inside your shirt how you feel 🤣
That belalang kunyit (Grasshopper) you can eat it 😅… very delicious… 😋
The traditional architecture of houses on stilts ...built to improve
Ventilation : need ro have movements of air across the house, top, inside and underneath to cool off from the hot weather .
Yes...prevention from flood water , back then also from wild animals.
Yes true Ivana, 'bawah rumah' or the space beneath the house function as Storage, Garage and rest area
For male guests, they can sit there without going into the house where the ladies are.
It is actually more prctical to hve our houses on stilts in this climate and landscape
But modernism and technology have changed everything.
Now, everyone suffers tremendously when theres flood because all houses are on ground.
👍👍👍
hiiii :)
