    This is part two of a series in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia! A melting pot for many cultures, this means there is nothing but unique and extraordinary takes on dishes as you see the culture and cooking flavors come together. .
    I start my day off at the Chow Kit market to take a look at the biggest wet market in Kuala Lumpur. I then track all over the city looking for as much food as I could eat in one day! From local street snacks to a feast for dinner this video has it all!
    I hope you all enjoy the video, feel free to comment, like, and subscribe if you like the content and want to see more!
    Also let me know what you would like to see and where you would like to see my future travels take me!
    Wishing you the best,

      about the sauses in roti canai u mentioned, yes the locals usually eat with mixing all the 3 sauses together. Sambal (red), dal (yellow), curry (brownish). it is the way to go.
      since you are sweet tooth, try and order "Roti Boom Kaya"... (Roti Boom = puffier version of roti canai. Kaya = sweet creamy coconut spread made from coconut milk) usually they dont have it in the menu but u can order it in most of local indian/mamak restaurant. (cuz people dont usually order it like this, mixing it with Kaya, Kaya usually ordered with a bread toast) i guanreenteed you would love it. you can eat it as it is without dipping it in any sauses.
      your welcome

    We just arrived back from Kuala Lumpur (KL) yesterday, and have to say that KL is an amazing city, with even more amazing people and food. We are seasoned travellers, and would rate Malaysia right at the top of our list of countries to visit. We flew from KL to Penang for £23 (return) each, which is $29, and loved the city of Georgetown. Love to Malaysia.

    KANDAR means put something on your shoulder and bring it along. For your information, the history of Nasi Kandar, along time ago, the nasi kandar seller sell their food by walk with all the small pots and food are inside the big basket and he will "kandar" from place to place.

    Dude, how did you discovered Kin Kin??? This is like not a tourist secret. It is where we go during our work hours. My wife and I usually orders three bowls and share 1.5 bowl each. But for the chilli we can't do a whole spoonful like you. It is wayyyyy too spicy even for me. Well done on your investigative work.

    • @Macoi24
      @Macoi24  6 лет назад +4

      Vincent Chin haha I definitely felt that chili later on! Man I tried to do as much as I could as I really wanted to eat like a local and at the best places! I could have done better but for being my first time and only having 2 days I feel like I did well!

You'll find a lot of fusion food here in Perak. Anddd would love seeing you search for good food around Sabah and Sarawak. Aside from the food, the beaches are heavenly!

    I don't know if anyone has mentioned this.. But Kandar in Nasi Kandar is actually referring to the way it was carried to the working people in the olden days. So they have it in like boxes, usually two, and is balanced on the shoulders with a long stick and the boxes suspended on both ends of the stick.. That method of carrying stuff is called Kandar. So Nasi Kandar is referring to the nasi (and any other curries or dishes) that is being carried on a Kandar..
    Btw canai in roti canai is pronounced as cha-nai.

    12:33 It’s actually called ubi getuk (mashed and fried tapioca with coconut), also the roti canai is pronounced Cha-nai, cha as in ch in chair. You’re practically Malaysian as we do mix our roti canai sauces together too! My ultimate favourite combination is the red sambal with the middle lentil curry (called dhal).
    Looking forward to more of your videos!

    Just a note about nasi kandar. Nasi means cooked rice (uncooked rice is beras). Kandar however refers to how this dish was sold way back about 70-80 years ago. Kandar actually is a long bamboo stick held over the shoulder, with two pots hanging from either end. One had rice in it, and the other had some curry, beef, fried fish and some okra. That was it back then. It was the poor man's lunch, which in the 1940s and 50s cost just about 30 sen for a basic meal. The nasi kandar you see today is an evolution from a poor man's lunch to a gourmet meal. You will not find a kandar these days. However the name has stayed on.

    12.33 : "Getok" - made of steamed and mashed tapioca/casava, grated coconut and sugar.
    Frankly, the portion of the wanton, pan noodles and ABC is too small with the price you had to pay. I don't think it is enough for me alone! Nevertheless, enjoyed your video and the food you featured here. Enjoy your food, where ever you are.

    nasi kandar (local called them) is actually originated in States of Penang. Back then in the late 18's, Penang was one of the busiest dock for Traders around the world and the ship would stop at Penang for trading from middle east to asian region. Because the dock was so busy, so many locals and immigrant from the middle east work there and there will be individuals will come and carry rice (nasi) and dishes (mostly curry and variety of herbs and spicy based dish) in their shoulder (kandar or mengandar -verb word) who will sell and maybe feed for the dock workers. So the tradition of mixing the rice and all the dishes is still the same of what happen back then but the different is the rice is never been carry out with shoulder anymore nowadays. You can try to google image word " kandar " and you will get the idea.

    yeah bro, finally u have tried the Indian various of roti...usually i mix all the 3 sauces as u did, lol...n yet again, y tried my another top favourite food which is dried wantan noodle, (the dried one which is not available at hongkong). i prefer wantan at hongkong, but i prefer the dried noodle at malaysia. pls also try malaysia most famous dessert, cendol, which is similiar with ABC...hope to c ur next video in Penang(pls try fried kuey tiaw and assam laksa, and many more) in the future, have fun here~

    • @Macoi24
      @Macoi24  6 лет назад +1

      hinz tan I looked for cendol so much! But I found the ABC first! I hate that I didn’t get to try it out! Yes, can’t wait until I go to Penang! You can usually get a dried version at any Wonton restaurant in HK! Have you tried the dry version?

    • @hinztan3533

Our state Sabah well known for the great escape to nature adventure & local shopping tourists hot spot & Sabah also well known for the cheapest fresh seafoods in Malaysia!! With 32 ethnic in Sabah you can try local native foods & others exotic food that you can't find at other states in Malaysia & some food mite bizarre to others if you have gut to try it🤣 ,I highly recommend you first stop visit at Kota Kinabalu the capital city of Sabah 😊 🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾

    stumbled upon this randomly n glad i did. watching people enjoying food are always... so satisfying. whoa... roti milo? i lived in KL my whole life but never heard of that.. or maybe i just never noticed it, afterall mamak restaurants/stalls would have countless types/inventions of rotis, you sure love your sweets xD n the ubi ketuk potato ball thing is actually made of tapioca, not exactly sweet potato. and what you said bout egg, well everyone who can appreciate egg's value/yumminess gets a nod from me. haa. good for you getting kuah campur(mixed curry) on that nasi kandar, i've seen many videos of foreigners eating nasi kandar here n just getting like one curry n some side dishes n that's really not the way to go, this is the way, hahah. reminds me of a nasi kandar i got in Penang, it's at Nasi Kandar Nasib inside Tesco mall at Tanjung Bungah, nobody would recommend this bcuz it's not one of those mainstream popular place, but the taste, portion, price just had me completely mindblown. also, impressed me when you decided to mix the roti dips... that's really the way to go, if you ask me, i'd recommend mixing the red sauce(sambal) with the yellow(lentil). they'd really complete each other. haha, i truly enjoyed this video, keep it up! 👍

    subscribed! the only two other food vloggers I follow are Mark Wiens and TheFoodRanger when they had less than a thousand subscribers and now they have more than a million subs each. I have a good feeling about you too! Keep the quality content coming :-)
