Thanks so much for your HONEST opinions on food and drink....we all know not everything can be perfect, it would defy all odds.....Great video tho, thanks again, Sheena & Thomas...!
😄😄😄😄 gosh that cendol is disappointing 😆 we will always say if something doesn’t measure up but we’re usually so pedantic about what we eat that we don’t come across too many fails 😄 thanks for watching and commenting Dale 😍 Cheers, Sheena
Love to see the technique they used to make the asam laksa, it make the laksa more concentrated with the sauce, and i love how they do it... it look amazing... cant wait for more...
Hi Bukhari Shamsudin! Isn't is the best watching them do that! Makes me so hungry watching them making the bowls 😋 I was starving while editing the slow-mo shots 😂😀 Thanks so much for watching and we're so glad you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Thomas 😀
I just wanna watch all your Penang videos from this point on and I've been waiting!! Gosh, Penang looks sooo good (food looks good)! Whenever I go to Penang, i will always be willing to eat Nasi Kandar, and all of the Nasi Kandar restaurants are FILLED with people and usually we have to line up a long line. But at the end, it was absolutely worth it. I just love how people love the food. There is a lot of street foods in Penang, and are always busy. Just want to go to Penang so badly!! Love your videos soo much! And I hope both of you can learn the recipe for Malay foods yourself so you'll never run out of Malaysian food ever again. :-)
Thanks so much Omar Abdul Aziz! We have a couple more to come mate but we hope to head back soon so we can explore some more! There are so many nasi kandar restaurants in Penang aren't there- soooooo good! It really is a food paradise! So glad you are loving our content mate. We are so happy to be in Malaysia and filming these videos. And yes we totally need to get some cooking under our belts!! Thanks for watching and for commenting mate. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
You love your food I can see so was Thomas I love all the food you both eat I,m Singaporean now we live in Spain is hard to get food like you both eat I,v to cook myself. I married an English man for 59 years we still together he love all the food. I cook one thing he hate is eggs Thank you both for your very hard work good video. Enjoy while you can .
Penang food always the best..Good recommendation Thomas & Sheena
Hi Beng Kiat! Thank you very much for watching and we're so glad you enjoyed this video! Thanks very much for watching! Cheers, Thomas 😀
Penang is magic. Thank you again
It's got such a charming feel about it doesn't it Inner Bliss Healing?! Hope you enjoyed this video mate, thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
That first snack looks amazingly delicious!
It’s unreal! One we think about often and have returned for a couple of times 🤤 thanks for watching and commenting 5cats 2kids 😄 Cheers, Sheena
Im getting more and more hungry binge watching your videos! Im so glad that you put in really honest reviews and yes,i agree with your thoughts on the cendol. They taste different as compared to before :(
Hope you had a snack on hand mate! Thanks for watching our videos Sabrina Rafiz! 😍😍😍😍 Ahhh yes that cendol- such a disappointment! I remember being so blown away by it when we had it that first time a few years ago. Such a shame! Thanks so much for taking the time to comment and hope you enjoy the videos we have planned for our channel! Cheers, Sheena
I was kinda waiting u guys uploading this Penang video..because Penang is my personal food paradise as well!!! Nice video as always!! :)
🙌 it totally is right Sapian Basri?! Next we want to spend more time on the mainland! Thanks for watching and for commenting, so glad you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
Chasing a Plate - Food and Travel Channel yeah im from Perak & found Penang has the best varieties of food despite the size of the state
We can't wait to visit Perak too! Bring it on! Cheers, Sheena
I must said they may have decided which street food to present for their courses. To some viewers like me, it's easy to think that Thomas is thirsty for ice cold sweet drink/dessert and Sheena is more hungry for savory appetizer & noodles. The Char Kuay Teow really look good & delicious and so are the chendol. They are my favorites.
We are big fans of both those dishes too! Our favourites! Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena
I stir fried my own noodles. So good and simple delicious dish.
Delicious! Thanks for watching. Cheers, Sheena
As a Malaysian, it is really heartwarming for you guys to give an honest opinion on foods here especially the cendol, will be keeping up with your food adventures :D
Thanks for watching Actros Tan! We are always honest about the food we eat although Malaysia's cuisine is so fantastic that there really hasn't been much cause for complaint!! Hope you enjoy the content we have coming up and thanks for taking the time to say hi! Cheers, Sheena 😀
I see a chasing a plate update, i like first before i forget due to drooling!
You're the best Afdal H.!! Thanks so much for watching and for commenting mate. Hope this video made you drool 😂😍😝 Cheers, Sheena
Mouth watering SERIOUSLY!
😝😝😝😝😝 I'm so hungry thinking about it! Cheers, Sheena
great honest review sometime !
Thanks Nazmirul Asraf! Gotta tell it like it is right?! Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
i watched many food review such as mark weins,luke martin,sonny,trevor james sometimes i wonder is it food they eat really good . i think u should consider give rating 1 to 10.
Thanks for the feedback mate. I guess it's hard because often we're eating things for the first time and we have nothing to compare it to. I guess we give our opinion through what we say. And when we're not keen on something (like the cendol) we'll just explain why. We just finished filming some videos with Luke so keep an eye out for those coming up on our channels soon 😀 Cheers, Sheena
Yummy as always, guys😋😋😋
Thanks so much Along Pol! Oh man all the food in this video was AMAZING!! Thanks for watching and for commenting. So glad you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
This is awesome !!! Just watching your reaction makes my mouth water Sheena! Next try some CHEE Cheong Fun in Ipoh and Penang. They are both very different ..
Hahahahah I get so excited when there's amazing food around Liam Loke 😆 Ahhh we have only had chee cheong fun in Penang: ruclips.net/video/rXY6m5XmOQU/видео.html What are the Ipoh ones like?! We've only had Teluk Intan's famous chee cheong fun- that was SO GOOD: ruclips.net/video/sj9C5EBuINc/видео.html Thanks for watching this one mate, so glad you enjoyed it. Hope you like our other Malaysia content! Cheers, Sheena

Word. Thanks for watching and for commenting Suarez Barcelona. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
Dear Sheena and Thomas, sometimes Penang's best kept secret are located at the outskirts. If you guys are interested to test out some of the most authentic Teow Chew cooking in Penang, I can bring u guys to visit a couple of places in across the mainland in seberang prai.
Hi Victor Chan! Thanks so much for the generous offer mate. We are now back in KL but are really keen to return to Penang soon and explore the mainland! We'd love to sample some authentic Teow Chew cooking sometime soon! Perhaps we can get in touch prior to our next trip? Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀

Love the way you say "loh bah" 😂
😝😝😝😝😝😝😝 Hope you enjoyed this video Paige P- we miss food hunting in Penang! We'd love to spend more time on the mainland next time and explore the food scene there. Oh my gosh that loh bah- I literally dream about that chilli sauce that goes with it 😍 Hope you enjoy the rest of our Malaysia series. Thanks for watching! Cheers, Sheena

my tag line: "im starving, lets sleep".

Asam laksa is my favourite and end with cendol omg so tasty.
The perfect combo shela kroes!! YUM!! Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
Hold on...
Not a perfect combo yet...
Will only be perfect after TWO bowls of Laksa...and the best cendol to accompany it with the best added ingredients to be added into it.
tomie myspace haha my stomach very small,if i eat two bowls i can't breath hahaha..btw i watched you vlog make me want to go to Penang.
😂😂😂😂 I like your style tomie myspace! Cheers, Sheena
Yay #number1
Hi Kira Killer! Thanks for jumping onto the video and checking it out. We had such an awesome time eating in Penang. Drool! Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😄
Hi Sheena and Thomas,There is a new laksa called Laotian Laksa.It is not from Laos but a Penangite who created this dish winning dish.The restaurant is called No Eyed Deer Resturant.Please check online and it is closed on Tuesday.
Hi Larry Shaw! That sounds really interesting! Thanks very much for letting us know about it. We hope you enjoyed this video and thanks for taking the time to comment! Cheers, Thomas 😀
One of my must-do char koay teow when visiting Penang is at this corner shop on the intersection of Lebuh carnarvon and Lebuh melayu. They are known for their duck egg ckt. I think it's called tiger ckt or something close to that. Another one is Super Hokkien Mee (prawn broth noodles, not the kl black hokkien noodles). It is really damn good but the cook's not the most courteous person you'll meet and word has it that he usually only serves local penangnites and would tell you it's sold out otherwise. We usually have a local friend who orders it for us in hokkien and it takes at least half an hour for the dish to arrive but definitely calories well spent!
OMG Daryl Tan, this is the best- thanks so much for those tips! We may have to make friends with a local so we can get ourselves a plate of those Super Hokkien Mee- they sound incredible. Hope you enjoyed this one mate, thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
Yes, Siam Road char kueh teow is the best char kueh teow in Penang. I eat it since i was small, before he became famous. That was 40 over years ago.
Isn't it amazing! Incredible that you've been going there for so long. Must be hard waiting so long now! It was back in February that we had it and I can still taste it 😋😋😋 Hopefully we get to put the camera away and head back there soon to enjoy another plate of it 😀 Thanks so much for watching and commenting! Cheers, Thomas 😀
it's nice to see your honest view about the cendol. there's alot of touristy spots in penang though so the standard may not be up to par. on the other hand the laksa is reaaaalllyyyyy mouthwatering!
Mouthwatering alright Syafique Sharif. The flavours are so well balanced. The cendol was such a disappointment 🙄 Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Thomas 😀
If you are eating cendol and wanting the thick coconut cream taste with a sharp caremal gula melaka flavour and the natural pandan aroma then you’re not just become ‘local’ ... you‘re an ‘old-school local’... 👍🏻😂
That is how chendol is supposed to taste. Some are starting to use fake coconut cream made from palm oil and their chendol is thick and creamy.
😂😂😂😂 call us old school locals then! Thanks for watching and commenting Mohd Mawardi Mohd Razha. Cheers, Sheena
Thanks for watching and commenting mike ooi. We had an amazing cendol in Melaka ruclips.net/video/Moorsf7Xz5M/видео.html and the Aunty hand pressed the coconuts before serving each morning. It was SO flavoursome. Not thick as such but just rich in flavour. Cheers, Sheena
So lucky I grew up in Penang hahaha
You are Olivia xxLuna!! The food scene is so awesome there! We really enjoy it every time we visit. Thanks for watching and commenting on this one and we hope you enjoy our other Penang videos! Cheers, Sheena
that 13K sub look beutifull 😂. congrat
😍😂😍 thanks so much amatuer video! Bring on 20k! 🙏 Hope you enjoyed this one mate! Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
Great.While you still in Penang, you need to try Char Keow Teow Arif Kg Pelet(Malay version) and Cendol Maklom. But you need to crossed the bridged because it not in the island.
Hi AKM 91, thanks so much for these recommendations! We are back in KL now but may be heading back to mainland Penang later in the month! These will be on our hit list. Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
Come to kuching Sarawak Malaysia try many good food and the best
Hi King X! We're super excited to get to Sarawak. It sounds amazing! We don't have plans in place yet but we hope to visit early next year. Thanks so much for watching and commenting! Cheers, Thomas 😀😀
You two are so much trouble for me to watch. I need to eat everything in this video but Im so far away. Pure torture. 😆-Ash
😆😆😆😆 you two need to get over here! Thanks for watching and for commenting Ash. Cheers, Sheena 😀😘
You should try the coconut jelly yumm.
Sounds amazing! Where would we find that? Thanks for watching! Cheers, Thomas 😀
Oh you mean at Joez? Mmmmm! Will do the next time we're there! Thanks for the tip Annie Ong! Cheers, Thomas
My goodness, Sheena, I haven’t seen your videos for a few days, I was scared of not seeing you again. Hope you’re both doing well.
Hi Louise, thanks for checking in! We are okay thanks. Sorry for the sporadic posting- a combination of not being able to access ingredients whilst in lockdown, Thomas being unwell and it costing us more to post than we’re currently making 😝 We’ll be back posting next week though! Stay tuned. Hope you are well 😘 Cheers, Sheena
try the malay char koey tiau as well while in penang
Hi mohd mahzam Abdullah! Thanks so much for watching! Sadly we didn't get a chance to try it this time. We have had it in KL though and loved it! Here's the video if you're keen ruclips.net/video/gNKAWfaSUBg/видео.html Thanks so much! - Thomas 😀😀
Hi Thomas and Sheena, i recommend you to try cendol at Wahab Cendol restaurant at Sri Rampai, Wangsa Maju, Setapak, KL. i've tried cendol at several places but cendol Pak Wahab is still my favored.
Awesome suggestion Gum Dam! We are always on the look out for great cendol so this is perfect! Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
Penang nasi kandar and their special rojak , you can stay at the YMCA if its still there
Hi Mohd Jalani Hj Said! Love those dishes in Penang. We've not had them from near the YMCA though. Will need to look out for it next time we visit! Cheers, Thomas 😀
those fritters look amazing. it's been so long since i've been to Penang. it's always a food trip when you go to Penang, whether you like it or not ;D
Too right chubipower. It's all about the food!! The prawn fritters are really something special! We love them. Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
Prawn fritter (Cucur udang) is indeed an amazing food. Only when pairing with the sweet + sour + spicy sauce.
It is "amazingness" in simplicity
Totally agree tomie myspace. I could eat a few right now! Cheers, Sheena
Siam Road Char Koay Teow worth the wait, eh? I don't mind long waits when restos use pagers or texts while we're off doing something but standing on line for 2 hours may be a deal breaker. Well, perhaps for sushi. :) Stood on line for an hour for BBQ in Austin, Texas once and I recall waiting an hour in the cold for breakfast in Portland, Oregon. Ha. They offered complimentary hot chocolate and coffee for the trouble. Terrific recommendations as usual, guys!
Yea, it's a long time... there is a kopitiam where you can wait and order drinks but it's not that big- they must get so packed nowadays! I remember we once waited for a table in Melbourne for 3 hours only to have them tell us after the 3 hours that they couldn't seat us as there were already 150 on the list and they wouldn't be able to cope 😳😬 In the meantime we'd been bar hopping so were slightly (read: very) inebriated when we finally sat down to a meal at 11pm!! I'd totally line up for epic sushi too!! Thanks for watching mate, this was a fun day of eating! Cheers, Sheena
3 hours just to be turned away?! Yikes! I just read a fun article about the queues for *_Chin Chin_* and *_Lune Patisserie_* in Melbourne. Just crazy.
It was Chin Chin Tosh!! 😂😂😂😂😂 Cheers, Sheena
Try Street Grill (Burger Bakar Penang) while you're there if you dont mind to wait up to 2 hours for a burger.
Is this the one with the massive amount of cheese theoddfellas? Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
Aiyaa, this aunty very funny looo...hahahaha
Hi Suren R, thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed my expressions! The food in Penang is awesome and we love food hunting there. Hope you enjoy our other Malaysia content. Cheers, Sheena
Asam laksa is different from laksa Kedah we call it the chinese laksa. just like different types of mee curry you should try and the various types of mee rebus or toast noodles
Love all the different versions! So many to try! What are toast noodles? Thanks for watching! Cheers, Thomas 😀
Come to Pahang...😀
Definitely Syed Haiqal!! 😀😍 We are planning to visit very soon! There are so many towns we need to stop at to eat!! Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
I commented so much today...maybe I'm hallucinating...maybe I'm drooling 🤤 ... maybe sugar craze...or just oily/milky/savoury/coconutty/fishy craze...I can't really tell which one...
Food craze!! There is just too much good food! 😋😋😋😋 Thanks for watching! Cheers, Thomas 😀
Almost 13k subscribers..make it 20k subscribers untill your last days in Malaysia :-)
💪🙏🙌 bring it on mate!! And then when we come back in January it'll be the road to 50k! Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
You must be really in love ❤ with Malaysia to make you wanting to come back again...so soon...
We ADORE Malaysia tomie myspace 😍 Cheers, Sheena
Cendol nowadays is far differ than we get in the past...during my childhood, my mother make the cendol by herself, using rice flour, glutinous rice flour and liquid from pandan leaf for colouring..combine with fresh coconut milk from coconut tree at the back of my house and gula melaka+little bit of salt, with couple of ice cube (not shredded one)...miss those moment...nowadays people always cooked the coconut milk to make it last longer, dilute them to cut cost (coconut milk is expensive commodities this days), add condensed milk and they even try to change to santan from palm oil tree...even cendol with kidney bean and sweet corn is not even authentic, that is just for ABC...Try to travel and stay in homestay around northern state villages, your host might be able to help you guys to have the real deal and might learn to make them by your own...Enjoy your travel here...;)
They sound like the most amazing memories Sham Hisan! Love hearing stories like that! We were lucky enough to spend some time in Kelantan and we made pulut durian with fresh durian, freshly made coconut milk etc. It was incredible! You can check that out here if you're keen - ruclips.net/video/cAUoJnfC9sk/видео.html also in Melaka we had a cendol from Aunty Koh and she makes the coconut milk fresh every morning. So good! ruclips.net/video/Moorsf7Xz5M/видео.html Thanks very much for watching and for taking the time to comment! Cheers, Thomas 😀
WOw..pulut durian also another memorial dish...glad that you have try them...aunty always the best source of authentic dish....haha...Most welcome Thomas, of course I will check that out....:)
Thanks Sham Hisan! You're so right, Auntys know best 😀 Cheers, Thomas
Have you guys tried "nasi 7 benua" in penang? Which literally representing the 7 continents of the world. You can taste 7 different flavor of rice in one plate 😋
We haven't Fatin Najihah Omar but that sounds SO interesting!! I just looked it up and it looks and sounds mouth watering. Hopefully we can get back to Penang soon to try it. Thanks for letting us know about it and hope you enjoyed this video mate. Cheers, Sheena
once I tried cendol that have very light coconut milk(santan), guessed what, they use santan alternative from palm. taste almost similar but no coconut aroma and mild not too creamy. coz palm milk cheaper than coconut milk nowdays. :(
No way ITS RIZQY?! That's terrible 😭 We were very disappointed in the drop in quality with this cendol. I remember it being so spectacular the first time we had it. Thanks for watching and for commenting mate. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena
and they promote palm(sawit) milk healthier than coconut milk. but what I see nowdays, more westerners start using coconut oil especially vegan. but I wonder if others can smell the aroma of coconut milk differ from palm milk? thanks to my 'bad' habit of sniffing food before I ate it :D
I'm totally a sniffer ITS RIZQY! It adds so much to the experience! I really want to smell the difference now. We haven't knowingly had palm milk... Westerners are OBSESSED with coconut oil in all its forms. There has been a real trend of using coconut products over the last 3 years or so! Thomas was a buyer for a supermarket in Australia and he would order so many coconut oil and coconut products. It would fly off the shelves! Cheers, Sheena
I would suggest you to try the penang food from varieties of stall based on ethnicity. Go to try Malay, Indian and Chinese and you would find astounding taste of all. For example, the nasi lemak made by Malay and Chinese would be different. And also chicken curry made by Indian and Malay would totally different. And from there you will know Malaysia as the melting pot of all kind of food.
I love how each ethnicity has their own version of the same dish laksanamanira. It really makes for such interesting eating and learning about the food culture here. Great suggestion and definitely something we will be doing much more of! Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
Man, so many choices.....if you have to pick only 1, where would you go?
Hi Tony! For Sheena it would be the asam laksa and for me the first place we went for the prawn fritters and the pork roll 😋 Thanks for watching! - Thomas 😀
OK, Tan Jetty it is!!
Sheenaaa are you having a flu? Your voice sounds like mine last week 😬 but I am feeling better now so I hope you do too! The coconut shake looks better than the one in Klebang which is expected lol Btw, I love your honest review so don't hesitate to tell it as it is.
Hi ParkSiQa! Yep a bit of a cold. SOOO annoying! It's starting to clear up now though which is great! 😀 Glad to hear you're feeling better now also! Yep this shake is better than the Klebang one! 😋😋 Thanks for watching! Cheers mate, Sheena 😋

Hi Michael! Thanks for watching this one! That Assam laksa is such a winner 😄 we always love visiting for a bowl when we’re in town 😋😋😋 Cheers, Sheena

I heard the aunty had an attitude!
Oh is this the red hat aunty?! We heard that too! yensiong chong what are your thoughts? Cheers, Sheena
for me a good char kuey teow must have a blood cockle, shrimp, egg, chives, runny but thick dark gravy, a wide flat noodle, nice smoky flavor. what about your preference of char kuey teow???
Nice ma 43!! I prefer a drier CKT with shrimp, egg, chives and lap cheong. I don't mind if it doesn't have blood cockles but if they're on offer I'm happy 😀 And smoky flavour is a MUST! Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
has to be duck egg lol
low mario never tried with duck egg before. gonna hunt for this later. sg dua ckt is overrated. hardly to find a good one nowadays
So creamy!! Thanks for watching low mario. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena
ma 43 is this the one with the crispy fried duck egg on the top? Good to know you reckon it's overrated!! Cheers, Sheena

I wonder, is there any diff between chinese n malay style asam laksa? Or even any of those food? Since i cant eat it coz its non halal.
I have never tried the Malay version Arm cylo. Has anyone on here had both and can answer this? I find the Chinese CKT very different to the Malay version although when done well both have that beautiful smoky flavour that's so important. Thanks for watching and for commenting on this one Arm cylo. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
Chasing a Plate - Food and Travel Channel if u looking for malay asam laksa try one at balik pulau, penang. asam laksa pucuk janggus is a good one tho
Thanks ma 43!! Cheers, Sheena
Sheena did you caught a cold?
I did moon light 😫 It's SO annoying!! My voice sounds less squeaky though with a cold 😂 Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
tapioca balls??
Yep! Like the balls in bubble tea 😋 Thanks for watching! Cheers, Thomas 😀

IMHO, melaka cendol is still the best.
I have to agree with you on this one low mario!! It's SO GOOD. Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
yes totally agree! The Penang road cendol is totally overrated! the Cendol in Aunty Koh melaka is still the best!
🙌🙌🙌 agree 100% Pang Li Yeo! The coconut milk is worlds apart right?! Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
I'm totally agree too. I went there with my friends and all of us don't like it.
😩😭 such a disappointment right Colby Chaos? Cheers, Sheena
Is that David rocco?
Who’s David Rocco? Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoyed the video! Cheers, Sheena
Anyone know what is the purpose of filling the bowl with soup and pouring it out multiple times? I've always wondered. Is it just to reheat the noodles?
well laksa soup is made of fish meat.. so they try to fill up more fish meat to the soup.. so the soup become thicker
I was just thinking this today mcdive and had to study what Uncle was doing with the ladle. I agree with Darimy Demy! Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
Thanks for confirming this Darimy Demy! So helpful 😀 Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
I prefer Malaccan cendol hehe
It's pretty hard to beat isn't it Brandon?! I think I might have to agree with you there!! 😋 Thanks for watching and for commenting. Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Sheena 😀
You guys were right about the cendol.. went there before and it was a total disappointment. U know y.. bcoz I had aunty koh's cendol at Malacca before this and nothing can beat her cendol.
Isn't Aunty Koh's cendol amazing!! We've been there twice now and love it!! SOOOO tasty 😋😋 Thanks very much for watching this one! Cheers, Thomas 😀
Chasing a Plate - Food and Travel Channel u were lucky to have the opportunity to eat twice :) I went there the second time and she was out of coconuts :(. By the way, I watched your second visit to aunty koh's cendol as well. It was with Luke Martin if I am nit mistaken of his name
Oh man! The first time we visited we got the last bowl and the couple behind us had to share half a bowl! Hope you can return and eat it again one day soon. 😄 Yes we went with Luke and his partner- we just had to take them- too good to miss we reckon!! Have an awesome night Travis Shuit. Cheers, Sheena
Chasing a Plate - Food and Travel Channel thx sheena. U have a great food adventure with Thomas too. Like you guys always say "eat like a traveller not tourist".. so inspiring :)
Thanks so much mate!! 😄
Look like Sheena not very well your voice different. Hope you get well soon.
Terima kasih Shah Riman Mohammad! I have a rotten cold 😷 Thanks for your well wishes! I hope it goes away soon too. Thanks for watching this one mate, hope you enjoyed it! Cheers, Sheena
Sheena. Another remedy you could try for sore throat...tamarind juice...better you prepare it yourself if you can...just buy wet tamarind in a pack...pour a glass of hot water...add some sugar because the tamarind juice should be sour enough (use enough tamarind for a glass of water)...or you can find bottled ones...but I strongly recommend you to avoid cold drinks and iced drinks until you get better
Great tip tomie myspace! Thanks for that! I have been making sure I have gulping down lots of hot soothing drinks! Cheers, Sheena
To be honest, northern is the best food in the world.
We had some amazing food up north Didi Mohd! Perlis, Kedah, Kelantan- they all had such amazing food cultures. We hope you enjoy our other Malaysia videos- thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena
Penang is famous for millions of food choices but being Malaysian I can't say it's food paradise, mostly over rated. Paradise for tourist maybe....anyway I still enjoy the food in Penang.
Hi Zac Zain! We think the whole of Malaysia is food paradise 😋😀😂 Everywhere we go we find something different and so much incredible food! We can't wait to explore more and really get to know this country 😀 Thanks so much for watching and commenting! Cheers, Thomas 😀
it's still the best bro, Klang Valley people will travel to penang n ipoh mostly for the food. My friends do that always take the morning ETS and come back at night the same day for nasi kandar...
+Chasing a Plate - Food and Travel Channel yes Sheena a food paradise indeed especially penang, Kelantan n melaka n of course KL where local n international food aplenty.
+Ftin Ftin we would also drive up to melaka just for dinner / seafood at Umbai. come back right after.. :))
Oh we love it here so much Ftin Ftin!!! 😍 Cheers, Sheena
