Sometimes, I wish there were a "food bus" that would transport SG travelers to Malaysia so they could spend the entire day eating and returning in the evening. I'll probably take that bus every weekend. 🤣
Both Singapore and Malaysia are unique nations with their own cultures, histories, and strengths. It's important to respect and appreciate the differences between them, rather than trying to rank them or compare them in an hierarchical manner. While there may be certain areas where one country may have more advanced infrastructure, higher levels of development, or better food, it's important to recognize that these are few aspects of what makes one country great. Ultimately, both Singapore and Malaysia have much to offer and are equally deserving of respect and appreciation.
next to Kin Kin Pan Mee, there's a malay restaurant at the corner which sells a lot of malay mixed rice dishes. the fried chicken with crab sauce is the bomb
This is your to eat list in KL: Malay food - ikan patin tempoyak, pari Asam pedas, nasi kerabu, nasi Ayam kunyit, mee jawa, Ramly burger; Chinese food - Yong tau foo (Jalan Ipoh), Hokkien mee (Chinatown), claypot chicken (Chinatown), hainanese chicken, Hakka mee with Char siew (toast and roast PJ); Indian food - banana leaf rice (Kanna PJ), Mozzarella cheese naan, sup ekor mamak; desserts - durian cendol, sirap bandung, Sangkaya coconut ice-cream. Also, you need to try Family Mart in Malaysia, it's another level of innovation. A must try: Satay oden, tomyam oden, garlic mayo onigiri, mala chicken onigiri, and the weird sotofu ice cream flavours they served.
The little sea snails in the Chow Kit Market can be found in Singapore, cook in sambal. Usually found in those BBQ sambal Stingray stalls. Just say 'Chut Chut', the stall helper will know what your are ordering.
The tour around kl (market etc) is just for the tourist. Average Malaysian these days shops at their supermaket (aeon, giant, tesco, mydin, jaya grocer etc). Majority of Malaysian don't stay in central kl (more expats or foreign workers) Ps: the prawn paste you have to mix it well with the asam laksa soup. Similar to the sambal given to nyonya laksa. Make sure to mix it well
Ha ha.. when I see Ojisan uses his fingers to eat roti prata, I immediately thought of Ichang whom he recently did a collab with. It was super duper entertaining ✨️
Welcome to KL Ghib san. She's not perfect but hopefully you enjoyed your trip here looking forward to your next adventure in a different state in Malaysia!
The prawn paste or hae koh in Hokkien is supposed to be mixed with the Asam Laksa soup to make it more flavourful. Hahaha it's not for you to dip food in it! It would taste overpowering if you do that.
Anyone that says S’pore food is better than M’sian or vice versa is going around with blinkers. The absolute best part of living in this part of the world is the amazing ease of access to the endless variety of eye-catching, aroma rich, mouth-watering and delicious foods. From the most basic and simple Roti, Nasi Lemak, or noodle dishes to the more grander and elaborate preparations, each have a place in satisfying our appetite. Videos like this take us on a whirlwind tour to places that we individually will not have the time or opportunity(I now live in Canada)to personally visit. Thanks to Ghib and the many other RUclipsrs for sharing their experiences with us👍👍😄
I like siput sedut in Bangkok but never tried it in Malaysia. This video is making me drool!!! Chow Kit was said to be the most bustling place in the 1960s. Glad to see it so active now.
Finally you have landed in KL. Haven't been there since Covid..miss the food! I would think taking a coach is faster ever since their airport has shifted...hmm. I'll always choose teh tarik at mama shops as they are best at it and not known for coffee. Indians don't really take coffee. Cham just means yuan yang, they are the same is just that the coffee and tea in Malaysia is stronger/more fragrant generally. Bergerdil is a very common and popular food item in all Malay food stalls hahaha, guess you have always missed it. Assam laksa is from Penang. You gotta try it one day in Penang. This one looks a bit dliluted, not enough fish and ingredients. The har gou (prawn paste - speciality in Penang) should be poured into the soup. You should try the normal laksa with coconut in order to compare with Singapore's. Try the KL pork noodles (dry version) called Sam Gan Chong. They have unique pork balls which are rectangle in shape and also their special pork sausage. Generally Malaysia food taste more robust, punchy, stronger everything.
Should try the East Coast Malay food next time 1. Nasi Kerabu 2. Nasi Dagang 3. Nasi Kukus Ayam Berempah 4. Laksam 5. Nasi Berlauk (gulai dishes) And bunch of traditional kuih...
So glad you found The Chow Kit Kitchen, I had a staycation there once and ended up having all my meals there for 3 days because everything was mindblowing! Even for a Malaysian! Satay👍👍👍 Ikan asam pedas🙌 Their cocktails were amazing too~ Their toiletries were a special colab Local Msian product Jeanie Botanicals which I purchased from the hotel regularly ever since my stay there 2 years ago!
@@GhibOjisan when u mentioned the crab sauce was sweeter , I immediately didn't have any appetite for it. Don't get why in many ppl like to mixed savory food with sugar
When i flew into KL i checked into Wanjo first before our Hotel...My msian relatives like the mee siam with Gravy from Toast Box....they say JB mostly only have dry version
The snake fruit you ate is called "Salak", a fruit native to Indonesia. Also, the word "Perkedel", the potato patty, is also from Indonesia. The name & food derived from "Frikadel", a Dutch meat patty. Should come to Indonesia one day and try the rendang (the color is black, not brown) 😁
Some of the place i didnt really sure if its really popular among locals and would not suggest chow kit as a food places to go, but glad you enjoy the experience. But for wanjo it is a really popular one for nasi lemak.
OMG! Living in Petaling Jaya (PJ), I haven't been to Chow Kit for years...now there are legit reasons for me to do so i.e the chilli crab (although Taman Megah in PJ is famed for its fatty crab and closer to my house), the roti canai goyang, the nasi lemak, etc. Domo arigato for this mouth-watering video!
I'm half Malaysian and Singaporean..foods are quite the same as Singapore was in Malaysia before independence 1963 so the people, cultures and foods are quite similar but Malaysia is a bit better 👍🇲🇾✌️
I mean it's not like Malaysians have got anything else to do like develop their country and progress besides cooking all day,eating and lepak..... Of course they would preserve the arts better and to a higher degree.
Culture is probably chiller,u can do alot of shyt in msia where u can't in anal retentive sg,and god knows how cheap msia is.....a magnum ice cream bar automatically increases 300% in price just by crossing the border 5km away.....ojib should have gone to msia in the first place.
You do not fail to amaze and entertain! You really `must not miss out of the Nyonya cuisine and lifestyle predominant in Melaka - and the history! Looking forward to your Nyonya Video!
Malaysia have many types of laksa and it taste different..nyonya curry laksa,laksa utara,penang asam laksa,laksa siam,laksa johor(using spaghetti)laksa sarawak(aromatic broth),laksa kelantan n terengganu(got coconut milk),laksa mee pangkor
Ah both countries is great and unique. No need to compare, as the culture and foods looks great to visit and have fun. Thank You for your beautiful video🌷❤️
I love Kin Kin too! Should go earlier so you can have more ingredients in the soup (they do have yong tau foo but sells out fast so all that's left is fish/meatballs) I prefer Village Park Nasi lemak as the sambal is less sweet! iChang and Zermatt went to Village Park before!
Welcome to KL Ghib Oji San , glad you & Yr wife enjoyed staycation at fame Chow Kit hotel & exploring surrounding areas. Please do visit Penang Pearl of the Orient 🥰🤩
Ghib, you ate penang assam laksa but you yet to taste the real thing! You supposed to stir in the dark source, which is the fermented prawn paste, into the assam laksa which will bring it to a different dimension!!!
Informative content as always ! As in your previous video with Ichang, Singapore and Malaysia food intertwined that we cannot ravel. Indeed I find Malaysia nostalgia and authentic after many years you can still find the same stall unlike we at Singapore that along the way the stall change hands or location frequently it lost its charm and sometimes the taste. Both country have it’s strength and weakness.
I like D'Laksa's Assam Laksa. It's a chain store in Malaysia, and good thing is you can find it in Singapore too. I haven't tried the one in Singapore, probably will try it one day.
here's my recommendations based on my personal preferences: 1) Nasi lemak & Nasi kukus : village park PJ, wanjo, Nasi Kukus Bro 2) Bah Kut Teh: heng kee bak kut teh PJ, Restoran Ah Hei Bak Kut Teh, Teluk Pulai Bak Kut Teh 3) Banana Leaf: Nirwana Maju Bangsar, Bala's Banana Leaf 4) Bar with good ambience: Helipad, Marini, The Deceased 5) Seafood: Restaurant Siu Siu, Robson Heights Seafood 6) Charsiew: Restoran Char Siew Yoong, Restoran Wong Mei Kee 7) Nyonya: Limapulo, Big Baba 8) Nasi Ambeng: Congkak , Warung nasi ambeng 9) Yong tau foo: Yong Tau Foo Kg Pandan, Foong Foong Yong Tau Fu 10) Fish Head Noodle: Soon Soon Pan Mee & Fish Head
We hv the same type of food, just slightly taste different. Eg klang's famous pork stew bah kut teh taste different from Singapore or johor bah kut teh. Klang is the origin of bah kut teh.
In Malaysia you can have different kind of Laksa.. Laksa Penang.. Laksa kedah with coconut sambal..laksa Sarawak... Laksa Johor... Laksam.. And laksa nyonya also..
I almost never heard Singaporean comparing their food with Malaysia, but almost certain to hear Malaysian's claiming all Singaporean food originating from Malaysia and Malaysian food tasting far better than Singapore. Imho, such behaviour is quite childish and petty, people need to grow up on a National level. 人比人，氣死人。
Yes overall most people prefers Msian food especially for those who likes heavier taste is becos of the complexity of the cooking. Therefore the taste is more robust compared to SG. For those who likes simple, light and healthier taste will prefer SG food.
i didnt know the top ten hawkers centres in sg sell healthy food. i didnt know the taste is light, simple and healthier? i didnt know simon road hokkien mee is tasteless compared to malaysias version LOL. I didnt know Hill street bah chor mee which is the only hawker with one star michelin and malaysia has none so far sells tasteless food.
Singapore has prata with egg outside too. You just need to order roti plaster. And they sell assam laksa in Singapore too. Ghib’s been going to the wrong places and/or ordering the wrong stuff 😂
In my opinion the *Escalation* of flavor intensity scale (a.k.a MSG) in Nusantara neighborhood is Singapore > Malaysia > Indonesia ≈ Thailand [Singapore being the mildest while Indonesia being the heaviest taste]
Agreed. Singaporean version of food is 'friendlier' but may lack some punch if you're used to Indonesian food. Indonesian food, on the other hand, is really heavy, but if you can get the hang of it, it definitely one of the best cuisines ever.
Personally, for me, Indonesian food is either too salty or way too spicy. Thai food has a better balance of flavours which complements its very spicy levels. Singaporean food is nice, but yes, more mild in taste. Malaysian foods I feel are the most balanced in everything, making all its flavours so much more enjoyable.
In my honest opinion, I think what was said about "if we really explore", we can find good food in every country. The differences about SG vs MY is the level of regulation on ingredients and health consciousness of each country. Definitely need to travel off beaten path to really enjoy the local culture and taste.
im amazed Ghib has been living in SG for so long and dont know about begidil. even the wife sounds annoyed lol. abang Ghib, time to try various SG malay food instead.
Malaysia boleh! I spent a mere 10 years in Singapore and now 4 years in Malaysia in KL. Hands down, KL wins for me. And the best Nasi Lemak here? Village Park restaurant. 😊
Actually the food in Malaysia and Singapore are exactly the same, but the food in Malaysia has taste, flavor, and robustness that Singaporean food never have. It’s a no contest, just a world apart. @ghib ojisan, you should visit Ipoh, the food there is much much better than the food in KL, especially for Chinese food.
Before S'pore joined Malaysia,there were already many migrants living in S'pore. Since all our ancestors ,especially Chinese ,came from the same country, it is only natural that the food we eat is very similar because most of them originated in the country where they came from. And also because both our countries are very close, we influence each other in many aspects ,especially food. I am sure before S'pore joined the M'sia federation (for only 2 years), there must be dishes that were already created in S'pore (since it was a busy port) before they became popular in M'sia and vice versa. I am glad that many tourists enjoy S'pore food very much.
For health purposes for singaporeans...less salt,sugar,coconut milk and oil...You know More in everything in food has the effect in our health.Prevention is better than cure. Fact is Malaysia has the most obesity people in Southeast Asia..Does singaporean wants to be Number 1 on that? Of coz No!
There are differences and there are similarities but no exactly the same😅even McDonald's and KFC are different. Everybody says KFC in Malaysia is way better..I gotta try that one day
During it's heydays, Chow Kit used to be a sleazy place full of prostitutes, addicts n snatch thieves. Looks like it has evolved & the hotel looks cozy. Used to stay in KL n the food was awesome n still is.
Sometimes, I wish there were a "food bus" that would transport SG travelers to Malaysia so they could spend the entire day eating and returning in the evening. I'll probably take that bus every weekend. 🤣
Even if there is, good luck bearing the traffic jam at the causeway.
At malaysia we have a day trip to sg..but not really on food based
need HSR to from sg to KL
check your local CC & RC. there will always be a food bus, usually to bring singaporeans to parts of Malaysia, for food etc
Sogo is now fully Malaysian owned but it was opened by Sogo Japan but they pulled out a long time ago.

Yes the brown prawn paste is to mix into the asam laksa

The Meals At Chow Kit Hotel Looks Amazing
The sushi looks so good, price is reasonable too😍
For the best Nasi Lemak, pls go to Village Park for a unique fried chicken you have ever taste! No Kidding, ask iChang!
Now I know the sushi CMI. Thanks for the confirmation Ghib!
I hate to go to atas places to eat because the plate is really big but the food portion is small.

How authentic nasi lemak with pork rendang Malaysian favourite 🤣
I didn’t catch that guide’s name. Is he a Malay? I was wondering this entire time.
Its amazing to see how you're taste bud have changed. Spicy food is no longer your problem.
The prawn paste should be mixed with the laksa gravy ,not for dipping because of its strong flavour. Prawn paste is called 'Heh Ko' in Hokkien
Welcome to KL Ghib Oji San , glad you & Yr wife enjoyed staycation at fame Chow Kit hotel & exploring surrounding areas. Please do visit Penang Pearl of the Orient 🥰🤩
You can try more at Sarawak. The rarest but most loved by locals.
Kampua noodles. Chicken pansuh.

Ohh whoops 😅 thanks for the info!!

Do you happen to have the names of the places which you ate? Appreciate if they could be at the description box. thank you

I like D'Laksa's Assam Laksa. It's a chain store in Malaysia, and good thing is you can find it in Singapore too. I haven't tried the one in Singapore, probably will try it one day.
It is good in Sg too. Only cheaper across the border.

1) Nasi lemak & Nasi kukus : village park PJ, wanjo, Nasi Kukus Bro
2) Bah Kut Teh: heng kee bak kut teh PJ, Restoran Ah Hei Bak Kut Teh, Teluk Pulai Bak Kut Teh
3) Banana Leaf: Nirwana Maju Bangsar, Bala's Banana Leaf
4) Bar with good ambience: Helipad, Marini, The Deceased
5) Seafood: Restaurant Siu Siu, Robson Heights Seafood
6) Charsiew: Restoran Char Siew Yoong, Restoran Wong Mei Kee
7) Nyonya: Limapulo, Big Baba
8) Nasi Ambeng: Congkak , Warung nasi ambeng
9) Yong tau foo: Yong Tau Foo Kg Pandan, Foong Foong Yong Tau Fu
10) Fish Head Noodle: Soon Soon Pan Mee & Fish Head
Thanks for this!
My favourite food is Nasi Lemak but now I am now on a low carb diet because I need to lose weight so.... CRY. 😭😭😭😭
Please try Ikan Patin Tempoyak (Catfish cooked in durian paste).
*fermented durian paste.
We hv the same type of food, just slightly taste different. Eg klang's famous pork stew bah kut teh taste different from Singapore or johor bah kut teh. Klang is the origin of bah kut teh.
JB has SOGO as well at MidValley Southkey , Singapore used to have SOGO
In Malaysia you can have different kind of Laksa..

Went there and was so disappointed by the nasi lemak. Prefer tanglin more.
🇲🇾KLのホテルも食事も凄く良さげやね～👍️
theres a good nasi lemak in chinatown that served it with fried pork
Haha... u should mix the prawn paste into the laksa... taste more umami
I hve been to wanjo.
As a local. This is a watered down nasi lemak.
I think chow kit was a red light district once
In my opinion the *Escalation* of flavor intensity scale (a.k.a MSG) in Nusantara neighborhood is
Singapore > Malaysia > Indonesia ≈ Thailand

Actually the food in Malaysia and Singapore are exactly the same, but the food in Malaysia has taste, flavor, and robustness that Singaporean food never have. It’s a no contest, just a world apart.
@ghib ojisan, you should visit Ipoh, the food there is much much better than the food in KL, especially for Chinese food.
Haha, but many Malaysians like to say that 80% of the chefs in S'pore are Malaysians! Anyway, one man's meat is another man's poison.
I wont go as far as "exactly" the same.
Before S'pore joined Malaysia,there were already many migrants living in S'pore. Since all our ancestors ,especially Chinese ,came from the same country, it is only natural that the food we eat is very similar because most of them originated in the country where they came from. And also because both our countries are very close, we influence each other in many aspects ,especially food. I am sure before S'pore joined the M'sia federation (for only 2 years), there must be dishes that were already created in S'pore (since it was a busy port) before they became popular in M'sia and vice versa. I am glad that many tourists enjoy S'pore food very much.
For health purposes for singaporeans...less salt,sugar,coconut milk and oil...You know More in everything in food has the effect in our health.Prevention is better than cure. Fact is Malaysia has the most obesity people in Southeast Asia..Does singaporean wants to be Number 1 on that? Of coz No!
There are differences and there are similarities but no exactly the same😅even McDonald's and KFC are different. Everybody says KFC in Malaysia is way better..I gotta try that one day
U try RAMLY BURGER bro so nice
During it's heydays, Chow Kit used to be a sleazy place full of prostitutes, addicts n snatch thieves. Looks like it has evolved & the hotel looks cozy.
Used to stay in KL n the food was awesome n still is.
Is this hotel previously an hospital? 🤭
