Sheena good at pronouncing 'Perak' as pear-rack means silver. if pronounce it as "perl-arc" the meaning will be different, I'm not sure meaning in english, awkward perhaps. congratulations to u guys reach 20k sub. keep on posting more vid.
Chasing a Plate - Food and Travel Channel Hi guys, i am a veteran in your channel, but i m still wondering what other things (job) do you do beside this awesome channel? I know that u said that this is your main job currently, but do you do anything else beside this? Hope i don't offend anyone.
It's a great dish right James Chong?! That duck was so tender! We really didn't get to spend much time in Bidor- can't wait to go back soon. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment. Cheers, Sheena
This is actually a very good quality video. I mean, it's almost 24 minutes, and it is filled with contents. Like you guys didn't even spend too much time talking about unnecessary stuff. Such effort is incredible, you guys sure deserve more subscribers. It's always good to see another video from you guys. Keep it up! and also stay healthy & happy!
Thanks so much for the kind words Kyle Tan! So glad you are enjoying our videos. We try not to waft on too much 😝 We're stoked to finally see 20k! Bring on 100k and beyond woo hoo! Hope you like the content we have coming up on the channel mate. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment. Cheers, Sheena
Definitely among your best episodes so far. Bravo. I was getting insanely jealous watching Thomas wolfing everything down with utter glee. And the durians , so soon after breakfast. BTW, congrats on reaching 20K. You really deserve 100k.
So glad you enjoyed this one TheAndrewFernandez! 😄 It was a great food hunting day- so many delicious and interesting foods to eat! Thanks for your continued support- bring on 100k 💪 Hope you enjoyed this one mate! Cheers, Sheena
Thanks for dropping by my hometown in Bidor! There's more foodies in the neighbouring shops but Pun Chun is definitely the most popular to visitors and tourists.
I wish we'd had longer in Bidor C.Y Wong! Looking forward to returning and exploring more! What are your favourite spots to eat? Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Cheers, Sheena 😄
Pun Chun due to it's legacy and long standing status as a touristy spot for visitors are less frequented by town folks. Town folks usually go to other spots where the food is slightly cheaper. I am a wantan mee fan, so I will usually go to Mee Wah, the food court that is located opposite of KFC for my dose of wantan mee. You can find awesome kon loh mee there as well - both are equally popular. Our town is famous for it's roast pork (siew yok) too, you can find them fresh in the market, and they usually sold out fast, so you need to grab them early in the morning like 7am. There's a curry mee and a claypot rice joint , just across the road where the government clinic is. Just right beside Pun Chun you can find stuffed curry chicken in the bread, that's pretty famous. Near Caltex, there's a 'tung fan' (glass noodles) in a restaurant called Sin Thean Thean. Southward Bidor in Taman Bidor Jaya on the outskirts, there's a restaurant that serves wild boar curry with wantan mee. Don't forget the guava stalls where you can find seedless guavas (jambu batu) and jambu air (Java apple). Dip them in plum powder, yums..they are out of this world!
Wow amazing C.Y Wong! Great recommendations- thank you! Love the sound of it all especially the claypot rice and the wild boar curry. Oh and the siew yok! TASTY! We'll have to get back to Bidor very soon to eat more! Thanks for taking the time to write mate. Cheers, Sheena
Hi jenniealexxa, I wish we'd had longer to explore Teluk Intan! It looked like a great place to food hunt! We loved the chee cheong fun- sooooo tasty! Thanks for watching and commenting on this one. Cheers, Sheena
It's so awesome how there are so any different versions Shamsury Mohd Salleh! The rendang tok was so different to any other rendang we've eaten! Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
Hi Thomas and Sheena. Congrats on hitting 20K subscribers!! May this number increase !!! Cos your channel is one of the best food channel on the net. All the best!!!
Thanks so much for the kind words and for your support ALES L! 😄 Hope you enjoy the content we have coming up on the channel mate! Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
Perak famous for its pekasam, i.e fermented fish..best fermented fishes are river fishes like loma (Perak's famous riverine fish), lampam sungai (river carp)..but stillwater fishes like tilapia is good as well..fish fermented in pounded rice..please go to Raban Lake, a beautiful lake in north Perak, you can find some restaurants there (Malay) including ikan bakar, fish freshly caught from Raban Lake..nearest town to Lake is Lenggong and to get to Lenggong you need to take Kuala Kangsar Exit from the highway..scenic place, you can take boat cruise on the lake..if you lucky the boatman will take you to visit his relatives yonder in the remote part of the lake coastline, you can visit these kampung people home, they'll invite you to stay for dinner or lunch..I was there (Kampung Beng) and invited for coffee, the old lady asked us to stay for dinner but we had to turn down for lack of time..
Wow sounds like such a memorable experience Esperalzi Esperal! We love pekasam SO much but you know what? I don't think we ate it when in Perak. Crazy?! We had lots in Perlis.... Hmm we must return and take your advice and head to Raban Lake. We've heard it's a beautiful spot! Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
Hats off to both of you.You did a good job doing a research.As a Perakian myself also didn't know much about the places you two went and found a nice food available there.
Hi Roti Tampal, (great username by the way) 😄 We had the best time in Perak- we loved visiting all the smaller towns and finding the local specialities. Gosh there is some amazing food to discover. Can't wait to return for more food hunting soon. Hope you enjoy our other Malaysia videos mate. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
Hi Sam Rayner! Thanks for watching mate and sorry to make you homesick 😝 oh gosh that breakfast was awesome- comfort food to the max! Hope you enjoy the rest of our Malaysia series mate. Cheers, Sheena
OMG u manage to come to Jeram. My grandma house is there. Yes its really rare, lui cha/thunder tea rice. Possibly you ould try the yong taufu/stuffed fried tofu if any. Its really different, pork n salted fish stuffing. You should really try cham (kopi+tea) when u are in ipoh, Jeram, Kampar. Kampar market food stalls hv very kaw n thick coffee/tea during breakfast.
Jeram was amazing Cheng Yi Choong! All the locals were so friendly! The lui cha was so tasty- I'm so glad we got to eat it finally! Can't wait to return to that area of Perak and to explore more. Yong taufu and cham sound a treat! Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
I haven't watch the video yet but I know it will be one word....AWESOME....So I'll watch it later when my tummy is not growling like the biggest storm of the century anymore 😎....So much of the videos on your road trips in Perak anyway....Perak must a little food heaven that needed to be discovered by locals and foreigners alike....😇
Thanks so much for watching koowaa! Omg I feel like eating everything in this video! Hope you enjoy what we have coming up on the channel mate. Cheers, Sheena
Thanks so much Vax Seow! We're super stoked and are glad the channel is growing! This was the first time we'd eaten this type of chee cheong fun as well- it was super tasty! A lot drier than other versions but very delicious! Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄 P.S We love Malacca, can't wait to return soon!
Totally Kits Kicks!! We found some awesome local Chinese dishes and small businesses in Perak. And a lot of the small villages in Perak truly embodied the spirit of one Malaysia- all cultures working alongside one another supporting each other's businesses. It was a real eye opener. Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
Thomas: Look at it! It's incredible! It looks like one of those dog from "One Hundred and One Dalmatians", I'm not even sure what they are called, but.... Sheena: Dalmatian! Got me rofl-ing, hahaha
You really enjoy your time in Perak. Glad you enjoy all the food there. I agree with Thomas durian kampung flavor are just right, not to sweet not to bitter and just enough fruity flavor to enjoy it. Cheers mate.
😄😝😄😝 that's me a pro durian eater hahaha. I really love it- driving around Perak and seeing all the durian stalls was heaven! Thanks for watching this video and hope you enjoyed it! Cheers, Thomas
Those rice noodle rolls were mouthwatering 🤤 I wouldn’t mind a plate of those or a plate of roast duck 🤣 thanks for watching and commenting Rebecca- hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena
We were obsessed with the kampung durian Awang Dagang! My mouth is watering just thinking about them! Thanks for watching this video and hope you enjoyed it. Cheers, Sheena
Hi Sharon Wong! Thanks so much for the support! LOVE durian sooooo much and it's so good in Malaysia! 😋😋 This road trip was amazing with all the durian being sold on the side of the road. Wanted to stop every 5 minutes 😂 Thanks for watching! Cheers, Thomas 😀😀

I am from Ipoh and now live in New York. I am so ashamed that I have never visited those places and it is definitely going to be on my to do list when visit home hopefully next year. Thank you so much for doing what you do. It is truly amazing seeing you guys appreciate our culture and food. I am so home sick and I miss those awesome food.😘😘 love and kisses.
Hi Annes Yoong! We love Malaysia and it's amazing food culture and people. We loved our time in Ipoh and can't wait to get back there. Hope you can eat vicariously through our videos until you can get back and eat everything yourself! Thanks for watching and heaps more Malaysian food content to come mate. Big love to NY! Cheers, Sheena 😄
*_Lui Cha_* - I know the key to this dish is the soup but I eat something similar a few times a month - brown rice topped with black beans, corn, steamed spinach, peanuts, carrots, pickled peppers, anchovy paste, etc. Healthy rice bowls called *_Buddha Bowls_* are pretty much all or mostly veg and are _(supposedly)_ super popular in the states. I don't know many people who regularly eat them but a million people sure love to Instagram their latest beautiful creation. 😂 I love all rice bowls, healthy or not. Another fun day, guys. 👍
That sounds great Tosh! I’m a fan of rice bowls too although I gotta say I’m probably more of a fan of the ones that err towards the unhealthier side 😂 I loved trying this one though as we’ve heard so much about it- the soup was fantastic- such a distinctive flavour. So glad you enjoyed this one mate, thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
For me Rendang Tok is the most delicious and the most difficult to cook. It can take 8 hours to make it dry ( my mom version ). Thats why i only can have it during Hari Raya celebration... because my mom is "Too Lazy" with the process of making that dish... No wonder it was knowing The most expensive Rendang in the human kind LOL . I am very sure if you go to kampung side during Hari Raya time you can get a very good version of Rendang Tok cooking by Makcik Or Grandma (Opah) . and... congrats Sheena and Thomas for 20K Subscribe..... Road to million... :)
Woo hoo road to a million! Bring it on! Thanks for your support Marwan Masir! I can totally understand why rendang tok is usually only served during Hari Raya- it seems like such a time consuming dish to cook. It's so delicious- I hope we're in Malaysia around that time! Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
Hi Marsha Tebbetts, thanks so much! So glad you enjoyed this video- this was such a great food hunting day- so much epic food! Thanks for watching and commenting- hope you like what we have coming up on the channel. Cheers, Sheena 😄
Welcome to small little town Teluk Intan. Sheena, you are right, the crispy thing in chee cheong fan is dried shrimp and turnip is stuffed inside. Both of you makes me miss my hometown chee cheong fan so much
Thanks for the confirmation Tan Tyng Tyng 😄 we just loved the Cheong fun- it was so different to other types were used to eating! Delicious! Thanks for watching and commenting on this one! Hope you enjoyed it 😄 Cheers, Sheena

Hey been following you for a few months now. I'm going Malaysia on Tuesday for 5 days and I'm excited about trying loads of different food. Are you guys still in Malaysia? Just want to say love you both and it was so weird seeing you in Korea with clothes on.

It was so tasty Hon Au! I wish we'd had longer in Teluk Intan as we were literally in and out. Must head back soon to explore more of the food scene! Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena
Thanks so much Brenda Benoît Dudley! It was so tasty- very fresh and it felt SO healthy! Hope you enjoyed this video 😄 It was a fun one to film! Thanks for watching and commenting Brenda Benoît Dudley. Cheers, Sheena
If I'm not mistaken, the rendang tok was cooked until the gravy dried out so that the dish can be kept long. Because in the old days like hundred years ago there was no fridge to keep the dish and the native are usually sailor. So they cooked it until the moisture in the food dried out. The rendang tok in that form can last until few months.
Thanks so much for that interesting information Muhd Azwan! I wonder if the flavour grows more intense the longer it's kept? Thanks for watching and commenting on this one mate. Hope you enjoyed it! Cheers, Sheena
Oh wow, I had forgotten how tasty the Teluk Intan Chee Cheong Fun is! All the food looks absolutely tasty, except for the durians! 😉🙃🙃🙃🤤🤤🤤😋😋😋👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Congratulations on reaching 20K subs Sheena and Thomas, woo hoo! 🎉🎉🎉🎊🎊🎊

Hi Steve Turner! So glad you're enjoying seeing this content. We love spending a long time in a place and visiting as many areas as possible. This was one heck of a great food hunting day! Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment! Cheers, Thomas 😀
Your Kuala Kangsar video made me homesick and now this made me miss my uni life in Kampar A LOTS !!! There's a stall in the pasar selling super tall Dragonfruits or Coffee or Milo Smoothies , nothing special but it's fun to drink lol. And u guys left Kampar without trying the Kampar's signature Claypot Chicken Rice , Curry Chicken Bun , and the Chicken Biscuits ( OMG I just realized it's all Chicken related lol ) Take a tour around the Kampar New Town and the university area, they have some sick lake and sunset views there. Then heads to Tualang to get some really nice freshwater prawns and seafoods ! I need to go back there !
Hi Reaz zL! Kampar was such a cool town- we really enjoyed visiting! We tried to visit the stall with the smoothies but they were shut which is why we had to film the sticky rice instead! We didn't get a chance to try the curry chicken bun or biscuits but we did eat the Claypot Chicken Rice- we just had it on a non-filming day though- it was taaaaasty! Perak is such an awesome state to road-trip around- we can't wait to do it again soon! Thanks for all those tips and suggestions! Fully making a note for next time woo hoo. Hope you enjoyed this video mate, thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena
It was such an interesting dish miss cool and it felt SO healthy. It was really fresh and flavoursome 😍 Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
I hope you guys can show us behind the scenes episode...how your search the accommodation, about transportation, research place of interest, filming etc.
Hi Solehin Ismail, that might make for a boring video- we tend to just spend hours in front of our computer 😂😝 Great suggestion though- we will keep it in mind! Hope you enjoyed this one mate, thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
😂 we were so full Dianne Visti! The sacrifices we make for this UA-cam channel 😜😂 Hope you enjoyed this one, thanks for watching and commenting mate. Cheers, Sheena
The Chee Cheong Fun at Liew Kee from Teluk Intan was nostalgic and the boom! That's best food in Teluk Intan where nearby my hometown Sungai Besar. I have not been home for 6 years, but soon we will be back soon! Thank you for this great videos that reminded me of home! Next time, you should considered going to Kuala Selangor, Sekinchan, Sungai Besar for seafood, and many more delicious food in Teluk Intan next time!
Hi 茹Sharon, omg it is SO good right?! We're so glad that you enjoyed this video and that it brought back great memories of home for you.

Thanks for that info leo pang!! It was such a tasty dish- I'm so glad we got to try it. Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
Nice video as always 👍. The 1st mix vege dish is a bit like Nasi Ambeng (originated from Indonesia mostly found in Selangor). The green soup looks like pandan water. Does it used any pandan in it ? The tender duck meat make me want to eat duck again. Haven’t had any for years. Duck meat usually are quite tough which is why I don’t usually eat it. Thomas: What’s that dog name type from 100 Dalmatians. Sheena: Dalmatian ! . (Funny 😅). Cheers 😃.
I was so happy to be able to try the lui cha Saiful rizan! Nope the green soup has no pandan- just herbs and vegetables. It was tasty. We have yet to try Nasi Ambeng so will have to look for some when we're back in KL in a couple of weeks. This duck was so tender it was unbelievable- cooked to perfection! Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄 P.S You can tell Thomas really loves dogs 😂😜
😄😄😄😄😄 pretty neat right amin johari?! We really enjoyed our meal there! Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄

Whoaaa! Been to 2 of the spots last week! The durian stall (because i recognised the table) and the bamboo rice restaurant. The leaves they're using is not banana leaves. It is "Daun Lirik" or kalatia leaves 😊
Awesome Nenny Ezanee! Hope you enjoyed your experience as much as we did! Isn't that bamboo rice restaurant MASSIVE? And so much choice! Thanks so much for the info on the leaves!! Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
Chasing a Plate - Food and Travel Channel thanks to you guys also for introducing places with good food in Malaysia. I went to the smoked duck restaurant in Kajang (itik salai masthar) the one with the spicy coconut gravy and it was awesome! After watching your video about it i said to myself " oh my god! Need to try it!" Plus it is about only an hour from my house
Awesome Nenny Ezanee!! We love Itik Salai Masthar SO MUCH! Can't wait to get back there for another meal soon. So glad you enjoyed it too mate 😄 Cheers, Sheena

I hv nvr tried chee cheong fan with radish I shud head down to perak to try it if I ever get the time. Btw huai shan is a species of chinese yam also know as cinnamon vine. The flesh is white which is different to the common purple colour yam.
This was so delicious Tifa! The first time we've eaten this version too. Thanks for the info on the huai shan! Very good for us to know! Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
You guys finally found rendang tok! Hands down my favourite malay meat dish. I would just eat it by itself no rice no nothing. Use the meat as a vehicle to transport all of that spice goodness into my mouth. Man id sell a kidney to have one right now. Btw i would love try that chee cheong fun, it looks halal. I always thought the goodness of chee cheong fun lies in the sauce so it kinda pique my interest to see how plain chee cheong fun would taste like.
Hi Diraf Lursan! We’re so glad we did! It was amazing!! I couldn’t get over how dry it looked but how moist it tasted. Delicious. The chee Cheong fun was amazing too- very unique as it really didn’t need any sauce- perhaps as it was just so fresh. Definitely worth a try! Thanks for watching and commenting on this one mate- hope you enjoyed it! Cheers, Sheena
Oh wow Jck Man! We really want to return to Teluk Intan- we were literally in and out and didn't get enough time to explore at all 😩 Looking forward to getting back there. Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
Omg...epic food video this round. Btw..the pcs of some sort look like ginger is called "wai san" in chinese which translate as a type of root that is traditionally good for the body. The chee cheong fun is one of my fav...good job guys...cheera
Thanks so much for that info True Believer!! So glad you enjoyed this food video mate- it sure was tasty!! Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena 😄
Whenever I go to Malaysia, I've never in my life seen a duck in Malaysia before and yet, there are a lot of duck dishes. And I still wonder if Thomas and Sheena are still in Malaysia.
Hi mate, we're in South Korea at the moment but are back in Malaysia in a couple of weeks time 😄 We'll be filming in Johor to start with! Hope you enjoyed this one! Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Cheers, Sheena 😄
Sheena - I knew that you guys are in South Korea! So, you are not leaving Malaysia forever? I've been to South Korea before, and yes, it is such an AMAZING country to taste great food! Well, I couldn't even everything in South Korea because not many things are halal. I just really like what you guys are doing. Everytime I see food when I am stuffed from this channel, my stomach just got empty. And thanks for replying!
Hi MauiRose, just found out it's Chinese Yam. Probably very similar in texture to burdock though right? Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena
Hi mohd fairus!! So glad you enjoyed this one! The durian was soooooo good! Love sitting on the side of the road having a durian! 😋 Thanks so much for watching! Cheers, Thomas 😀
Chasing a Plate - Food and Travel Channel yess... thomas..!! i enjoy it.. errmm.. you and sheena are still in south korea..??? what time now in korea.. thomas.?? When you guys go back to my country MALAYSIA.. ?? and shoot video in state of JOHOR ??
Yep still in South Korea. It's only 1 hour different in the time - it's 6.40pm here now. We head back to Singapore this weekend and then Johor after that 😀😀😀👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Hi Blanc Despair, one more video on Tuesday- a Pahang food tour and then we move onto our South Korea series for a while 😄 Hope you enjoy them mate! Thanks for watching and commenting on this one. Cheers, Sheena

If you get a chance to 5cats 2kids you totally should! It’s so unique 😍 it doesn’t smell at all “bad” to us- it’s definitely distinctive but it’s quite fragrant 😄 thanks for watching and commenting on this one- hope you enjoyed it! Cheers, Sheena
Chasing a Plate - Food and Travel Channel It's called nyekak and isu one of them have a sweet taste but not as smelly as durian and the other one is more orange in colour but have this earthy smell and the texture is harder and less sweet,i can't really differentiate the two because they are almosy identical asside from one of them has a more sharper thorn than the other and also,i think Isu is only native to Sarawak,im not sure but you can do some research Edit:I havent seen any foreigners making any video eating them,so you guys might be one of the first
We'll definitely have to look into them! I remember someone telling us about the orange fruit which is only found in Borneo actually! We'll have to hunt them down when we're next back there! Thanks for that Brusselssprout Wuh! Cheers, Sheena
Hi joon kit Choy! I think it's a dish that people like to eat in various ways, that's what the owner of the stall told us anyway. It was great getting to taste the soup on it's own to really taste the flavour and then dipping the rice inside the soup later gave it a whole other texture. Such a delicious dish! Thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena
We didn’t have any problems! As Kiwis we were able to use our NZ licenses but you’ll have to check your own national driver’s licence against Malaysian law 😄 otherwise an international drivers licence would be fine. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Sheena

Chasing a Plate - Food and Travel Channel Hi guys, i am a veteran in your channel, but i m still wondering what other things (job) do you do beside this awesome channel? I know that u said that this is your main job currently, but do you do anything else beside this? Hope i don't offend anyone.

It's so rich in flavour right 599ferrari?! We loved it! Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Hope you enjoyed this video. Cheers, Sheena 😄
Thanks for dropping by my hometown in Bidor! There's more foodies in the neighbouring shops but Pun Chun is definitely the most popular to visitors and tourists.
I wish we'd had longer in Bidor C.Y Wong! Looking forward to returning and exploring more! What are your favourite spots to eat? Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Cheers, Sheena 😄
Pun Chun due to it's legacy and long standing status as a touristy spot for visitors are less frequented by town folks. Town folks usually go to other spots where the food is slightly cheaper. I am a wantan mee fan, so I will usually go to Mee Wah, the food court that is located opposite of KFC for my dose of wantan mee. You can find awesome kon loh mee there as well - both are equally popular. Our town is famous for it's roast pork (siew yok) too, you can find them fresh in the market, and they usually sold out fast, so you need to grab them early in the morning like 7am. There's a curry mee and a claypot rice joint , just across the road where the government clinic is. Just right beside Pun Chun you can find stuffed curry chicken in the bread, that's pretty famous. Near Caltex, there's a 'tung fan' (glass noodles) in a restaurant called Sin Thean Thean. Southward Bidor in Taman Bidor Jaya on the outskirts, there's a restaurant that serves wild boar curry with wantan mee. Don't forget the guava stalls where you can find seedless guavas (jambu batu) and jambu air (Java apple). Dip them in plum powder, yums..they are out of this world!
Wow amazing C.Y Wong! Great recommendations- thank you! Love the sound of it all especially the claypot rice and the wild boar curry. Oh and the siew yok! TASTY! We'll have to get back to Bidor very soon to eat more! Thanks for taking the time to write mate. Cheers, Sheena
Durian crepes would be great. Malaysian Food is so yummy. Keep chasing those plates!

Thanks for visiting Teluk Intan and trying our chee cheong fun!
Hi jenniealexxa, I wish we'd had longer to explore Teluk Intan! It looked like a great place to food hunt! We loved the chee cheong fun- sooooo tasty! Thanks for watching and commenting on this one. Cheers, Sheena
Wooooo...rendang tok. Soooo yumm. It's look dry because it cook for a long time. Each state have it own rendang version. You should try it.
It's so awesome how there are so any different versions Shamsury Mohd Salleh! The rendang tok was so different to any other rendang we've eaten! Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄

Perak famous for its pekasam, i.e fermented fish..best fermented fishes are river fishes like loma (Perak's famous riverine fish), lampam sungai (river carp)..but stillwater fishes like tilapia is good as well..fish fermented in pounded rice..please go to Raban Lake, a beautiful lake in north Perak, you can find some restaurants there (Malay) including ikan bakar, fish freshly caught from Raban Lake..nearest town to Lake is Lenggong and to get to Lenggong you need to take Kuala Kangsar Exit from the highway..scenic place, you can take boat cruise on the lake..if you lucky the boatman will take you to visit his relatives yonder in the remote part of the lake coastline, you can visit these kampung people home, they'll invite you to stay for dinner or lunch..I was there (Kampung Beng) and invited for coffee, the old lady asked us to stay for dinner but we had to turn down for lack of time..
Wow sounds like such a memorable experience Esperalzi Esperal! We love pekasam SO much but you know what? I don't think we ate it when in Perak. Crazy?! We had lots in Perlis.... Hmm we must return and take your advice and head to Raban Lake. We've heard it's a beautiful spot! Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
Hats off to both of you.You did a good job doing a research.As a Perakian myself also didn't know much about the places you two went and found a nice food available there.
Hi Roti Tampal, (great username by the way) 😄 We had the best time in Perak- we loved visiting all the smaller towns and finding the local specialities. Gosh there is some amazing food to discover. Can't wait to return for more food hunting soon. Hope you enjoy our other Malaysia videos mate. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
Omg...rendang tok is my favourite.
Isn't it amazing Irene Yeong! Such a tasty dish! Thanks for watching this one and we hope you enjoyed it! Cheers, Thomas 😀
Hey Sheena, the glutinous rice with char siu in Kampar was my favourite breakfast , I am missing home watching you and Thomas❤️❤️
Hi Sam Rayner! Thanks for watching mate and sorry to make you homesick 😝 oh gosh that breakfast was awesome- comfort food to the max! Hope you enjoy the rest of our Malaysia series mate. Cheers, Sheena
OMG u manage to come to Jeram. My grandma house is there. Yes its really rare, lui cha/thunder tea rice. Possibly you ould try the yong taufu/stuffed fried tofu if any. Its really different, pork n salted fish stuffing. You should really try cham (kopi+tea) when u are in ipoh, Jeram, Kampar. Kampar market food stalls hv very kaw n thick coffee/tea during breakfast.
Jeram was amazing Cheng Yi Choong! All the locals were so friendly! The lui cha was so tasty- I'm so glad we got to eat it finally! Can't wait to return to that area of Perak and to explore more. Yong taufu and cham sound a treat! Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
I haven't watch the video yet but I know it will be one word....AWESOME....So I'll watch it later when my tummy is not growling like the biggest storm of the century anymore 😎....So much of the videos on your road trips in Perak anyway....Perak must a little food heaven that needed to be discovered by locals and foreigners alike....😇

A lot drier than other versions but very delicious! Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄 P.S We love Malacca, can't wait to return soon!
Awesome local Chinese food there! Malaysia is truly Asia!
Totally Kits Kicks!! We found some awesome local Chinese dishes and small businesses in Perak. And a lot of the small villages in Perak truly embodied the spirit of one Malaysia- all cultures working alongside one another supporting each other's businesses. It was a real eye opener. Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
Thomas: Look at it! It's incredible! It looks like one of those dog from "One Hundred and One Dalmatians", I'm not even sure what they are called, but....

I am from Ipoh and now live in New York. I am so ashamed that I have never visited those places and it is definitely going to be on my to do list when visit home hopefully next year. Thank you so much for doing what you do. It is truly amazing seeing you guys appreciate our culture and food. I am so home sick and I miss those awesome food.😘😘 love and kisses.

Hope you can eat vicariously through our videos until you can get back and eat everything yourself! Thanks for watching and heaps more Malaysian food content to come mate. Big love to NY! Cheers, Sheena 😄
*_Lui Cha_* - I know the key to this dish is the soup but I eat something similar a few times a month - brown rice topped with black beans, corn, steamed spinach, peanuts, carrots, pickled peppers, anchovy paste, etc. Healthy rice bowls called *_Buddha Bowls_* are pretty much all or mostly veg and are _(supposedly)_ super popular in the states. I don't know many people who regularly eat them but a million people sure love to Instagram their latest beautiful creation. 😂 I love all rice bowls, healthy or not. Another fun day, guys. 👍
That sounds great Tosh! I’m a fan of rice bowls too although I gotta say I’m probably more of a fan of the ones that err towards the unhealthier side 😂 I loved trying this one though as we’ve heard so much about it- the soup was fantastic- such a distinctive flavour. So glad you enjoyed this one mate, thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
For me Rendang Tok is the most delicious and the most difficult to cook. It can take 8 hours to make it dry ( my mom version ). Thats why i only can have it during Hari Raya celebration... because my mom is "Too Lazy" with the process of making that dish... No wonder it was knowing The most expensive Rendang in the human kind LOL . I am very sure if you go to kampung side during Hari Raya time you can get a very good version of Rendang Tok cooking by Makcik Or Grandma (Opah) . and... congrats Sheena and Thomas for 20K Subscribe..... Road to million... :)
Woo hoo road to a million! Bring it on! Thanks for your support Marwan Masir! I can totally understand why rendang tok is usually only served during Hari Raya- it seems like such a time consuming dish to cook. It's so delicious- I hope we're in Malaysia around that time! Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
I love love love y'all description of food I'll swear I can taste it!! Thank you

That was truly epic especially the first dish with the green soup. Looked delicious and also a proper cleanser for the body.
Thanks so much Brenda Benoît Dudley! It was so tasty- very fresh and it felt SO healthy! Hope you enjoyed this video 😄 It was a fun one to film! Thanks for watching and commenting Brenda Benoît Dudley. Cheers, Sheena
If I'm not mistaken, the rendang tok was cooked until the gravy dried out so that the dish can be kept long. Because in the old days like hundred years ago there was no fridge to keep the dish and the native are usually sailor. So they cooked it until the moisture in the food dried out. The rendang tok in that form can last until few months.
Thanks so much for that interesting information Muhd Azwan! I wonder if the flavour grows more intense the longer it's kept? Thanks for watching and commenting on this one mate. Hope you enjoyed it! Cheers, Sheena
Good job for da info..
Muhd Azwan thanks bro

Your Kuala Kangsar video made me homesick and now this made me miss my uni life in Kampar A LOTS !!!
There's a stall in the pasar selling super tall Dragonfruits or Coffee or Milo Smoothies , nothing special but it's fun to drink lol. And u guys left Kampar without trying the Kampar's signature Claypot Chicken Rice , Curry Chicken Bun , and the Chicken Biscuits ( OMG I just realized it's all Chicken related lol ) Take a tour around the Kampar New Town and the university area, they have some sick lake and sunset views there. Then heads to Tualang to get some really nice freshwater prawns and seafoods ! I need to go back there !
Hi Reaz zL! Kampar was such a cool town- we really enjoyed visiting! We tried to visit the stall with the smoothies but they were shut which is why we had to film the sticky rice instead! We didn't get a chance to try the curry chicken bun or biscuits but we did eat the Claypot Chicken Rice- we just had it on a non-filming day though- it was taaaaasty! Perak is such an awesome state to road-trip around- we can't wait to do it again soon! Thanks for all those tips and suggestions! Fully making a note for next time woo hoo. Hope you enjoyed this video mate, thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena

Lui cha the green veggie is not spring onion,but leek (Garlic)
Thanks for that info leo pang!! It was such a tasty dish- I'm so glad we got to try it. Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
Nice video as always 👍.
The 1st mix vege dish is a bit like Nasi Ambeng (originated from Indonesia mostly found in Selangor). The green soup looks like pandan water. Does it used any pandan in it ?
The tender duck meat make me want to eat duck again. Haven’t had any for years. Duck meat usually are quite tough which is why I don’t usually eat it.
Thomas: What’s that dog name type from 100 Dalmatians. Sheena: Dalmatian ! . (Funny 😅).
Cheers 😃.
u mean lui cha(mix vege rice + vege green soup pounded tea)...it's a traditonal Hakka's began in Hans Dynasty
I was so happy to be able to try the lui cha Saiful rizan! Nope the green soup has no pandan- just herbs and vegetables. It was tasty. We have yet to try Nasi Ambeng so will have to look for some when we're back in KL in a couple of weeks. This duck was so tender it was unbelievable- cooked to perfection! Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄 P.S You can tell Thomas really loves dogs 😂😜
I was so glad we finally found lui cha lcb8888! Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Cheers, Sheena 😄

I hv nvr tried chee cheong fan with radish I shud head down to perak to try it if I ever get the time. Btw huai shan is a species of chinese yam also know as cinnamon vine. The flesh is white which is different to the common purple colour yam.
This was so delicious Tifa! The first time we've eaten this version too. Thanks for the info on the huai shan! Very good for us to know! Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄
You guys finally found rendang tok! Hands down my favourite malay meat dish. I would just eat it by itself no rice no nothing. Use the meat as a vehicle to transport all of that spice goodness into my mouth. Man id sell a kidney to have one right now.
Btw i would love try that chee cheong fun, it looks halal. I always thought the goodness of chee cheong fun lies in the sauce so it kinda pique my interest to see how plain chee cheong fun would taste like.
Hi Diraf Lursan! We’re so glad we did! It was amazing!! I couldn’t get over how dry it looked but how moist it tasted. Delicious. The chee Cheong fun was amazing too- very unique as it really didn’t need any sauce- perhaps as it was just so fresh. Definitely worth a try! Thanks for watching and commenting on this one mate- hope you enjoyed it! Cheers, Sheena
I love durians. King of the Fruits.
Us too Albert Chia! One of our favourite fruits. Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena 😄

Omg...epic food video this round. Btw..the pcs of some sort look like ginger is called "wai san" in chinese which translate as a type of root that is traditionally good for the body. The chee cheong fun is one of my fav...good job guys...cheera

Whenever I go to Malaysia, I've never in my life seen a duck in Malaysia before and yet, there are a lot of duck dishes.
And I still wonder if Thomas and Sheena are still in Malaysia.
Omar Abdul Aziz Sir most of the duck farms are in Perak, that's why you can't find it somewhere else.
yeah since Perak have many lakes from old tin mines, they use it for duck farm nowdays.
Hi mate, we're in South Korea at the moment but are back in Malaysia in a couple of weeks time 😄 We'll be filming in Johor to start with! Hope you enjoyed this one! Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Cheers, Sheena 😄
Sheena - I knew that you guys are in South Korea! So, you are not leaving Malaysia forever? I've been to South Korea before, and yes, it is such an AMAZING country to taste great food! Well, I couldn't even everything in South Korea because not many things are halal. I just really like what you guys are doing. Everytime I see food when I am stuffed from this channel, my stomach just got empty. And thanks for replying!
+ITS RIZQY Oh that is why! I have been to Perak a lot of times, and I just remembered I did see quite a few ducks, but it was years ago.
That root in the stew was probably "Burdock" root
Hi MauiRose, just found out it's Chinese Yam. Probably very similar in texture to burdock though right? Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena

I’m so intrigued by durian. I want to try it so badly, but, I’m so aroma challenged I’m afraid.
If you get a chance to 5cats 2kids you totally should! It’s so unique 😍 it doesn’t smell at all “bad” to us- it’s definitely distinctive but it’s quite fragrant 😄 thanks for watching and commenting on this one- hope you enjoyed it! Cheers, Sheena
Try All Indian food there.. North and South food again in this video.. and an UPDate plz
There will be lots of India food content coming up soon mate! Big plans in the works! Cheers, Sheena
other than just eating durian,you do know thet ther is 2 more fruit very similar to durian.They are smaller but sharper and less smellier
What are they Brusselssprout Wuh? Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena
Chasing a Plate - Food and Travel Channel It's called nyekak and isu one of them have a sweet taste but not as smelly as durian and the other one is more orange in colour but have this earthy smell and the texture is harder and less sweet,i can't really differentiate the two because they are almosy identical asside from one of them has a more sharper thorn than the other and also,i think Isu is only native to Sarawak,im not sure but you can do some research
Edit:I havent seen any foreigners making any video eating them,so you guys might be one of the first
We'll definitely have to look into them! I remember someone telling us about the orange fruit which is only found in Borneo actually! We'll have to hunt them down when we're next back there! Thanks for that Brusselssprout Wuh! Cheers, Sheena
for Noi Cha , the correct way of eating is dipping the rice and stuff inside the soup and not eat it seperately.
Hi joon kit Choy! I think it's a dish that people like to eat in various ways, that's what the owner of the stall told us anyway. It was great getting to taste the soup on it's own to really taste the flavour and then dipping the rice inside the soup later gave it a whole other texture. Such a delicious dish! Thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena
Chasing a Plate - Food and Travel Channel haha okay, cheers
Yum yum Darlings...
So delicious Pradeep Rajkumar!! We loved this food hunting day! Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Cheers, Sheena 😄
Wai san or huai shan (淮山) = Chinese yam
Thanks so much for this Kaz Wonders! 😄 So helpful! Hope you enjoyed this video- thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
Is it easy to drive around in Malaysia? Do you need special license?
We didn’t have any problems! As Kiwis we were able to use our NZ licenses but you’ll have to check your own national driver’s licence against Malaysian law 😄 otherwise an international drivers licence would be fine. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Sheena
Huai Shan = Rhizoma Dioscorea (scientific name), Nagaimo or Wild Chinese Yam
Thanks so much for this simply J! Most helpful! Hope you enjoyed this one, it was such a cool food hunting day! Thanks for watching and commenting on this one. Cheers, Sheena
