ABOUT FOOD AND FOOTPRINTS:
We are Greg and Jumi, met in New York City. Hailing from opposite ends of the globe. Greg is a native New Yorker who was born and raised in Queens NYC and Jumi grew up in the beautiful islands of the Visayas region of the Philippines.
There is food, there is soul, there is record breaking buildings, it is affordable, although I want it to be as clean as singapore but it is fine, no cables hanging everywhere. Pollution is controlled by forest and trees, organised transportation.
Like the way you summed it up. Lots of positives 👍👍
Singapore is a fine city ....litter n you will be fined. Malaysia has such rules too but the authority doesn't do their job as it should have.
@Keang Wooi Choo So true! Couldn't have said it better.
@@Az-ks9iitheres always pro and cons..but tiny city state of sg seems too sterile for me atleast.
@@mir7684 I agree!
You all really sold KL well to me! I want to go now.
You’ll love it!
Agree! There's no capital in South East Asia like KL! Love its diversity, mix of cultures and the best fro each nearby country! China, India, Middle East...
"We just love how walkable KL is, to burn up all the food and to have more food", best quote in the vlog.. hahaha
Haha thank you, KC! Part of how we try to balance all the makan
I'm making KL Malaysia a must see bucket list place! 🙂 yes a lot of greenery goes a long way! I just love how the city looks, the color, the vibes, the architecture, and of course the food! 👍
Please do..
We can’t recommend it enough! You would love it
U guys started d video with food from d Malaysian Indian food culture, then d Chinese food culture n finish it with d Malay food culture. Brilliant content, excellent vlog.
Kampung Baru existed even before d independence. It's d British idea to make that area a Malay privileged area, reserved for d sole Malay ownership. D present price of land has become so expensive that d local government find it difficult to create a feasible masterplan for new development to take place. It still maintains d charm from d past, but surrounded by urban landscape of modern tall buildings n skyscrapers. There is a shop that sells nasi kerabu n nasi dagang in that area among many other Malay food.
Thanks to Jumi for her outstanding video editing skills.
Thank you so much, Yasin! Exactly how we wanted to highlight the diversity. We need to go try more food in Kg Baru too
@@FoodandFootprints Yes, u guys did a great job showcasing d diversity of Malaysia. Foreign tourists will see d diversed multi racial with their food, art, culture, tradition, religion. And yes, there r plenty more of food to taste in Kampung Baru. 😀
Part of why we made this video. Hopefully tourists, visitors and others who may not know much about KL can get a glimpse of the diversity
Guys, your vlogs are always entertaining and never disappointing. Appreciate your kind reviews on Kuala Lumpur. Thank you 😄
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoy them. We love KL
Thanks for your kind words about my city🙏 glad you enjoyed yourselves 😊

Enjoy KL, Malaysia and don't forget to go to SABAH and Sarawak in East Malaysia where you will enjoy Bali, Phuket, Chiang Mai and Hanoi put into one and more! Truly Asia to say the very least! Indulge guys!
Shout out to a fellow New Yorker!! KL is really an incredible city and agree on being a food capital. Especially when you include the whole Klang Valley. We would love to make it to Borneo sometime!
Wow, am feeling so proud and really appreciate your kind and lovely words about our capital, Kuala Lumpur. Thanks Greg Jumi. I notice there's a change in your video. Besides, showing food, you guys include scenery, landscapes and interesting places. Great content and thanks again for showing and sharing such fun videos. Kudos to you both 💪👍👏
Hi Chaw! Yes we changed up the style of our vlogs. Not solely food focused anymore and more flexible 😁 Thank you so much for all the kind words and support - we really appreciate it!

Always glad to see both of you, back here in our beloved Malaysia❤❤❤

You might have greater adventures and surprise to enjoy. Welcome to Sabah and Sarawak the truly Malaysia.
We would love to visit Sabah and Sarawak someday!
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video n for showing your explorations in KL, one of d best capitals, not only in Southeast Asia, but also one of d best cities in d whole wide world.
Thank you for watching, Yasin!
@@FoodandFootprints Actually, for d matter of facts, all thanks to u guys n your video. 😀
as Malaysian i never been there (around kl), hope got free someday to travel in my own country😂,walking is a great idea tho, tq for the vid,and welcome to Malaysia, enjoy your stay.
It's definitely one of a kind!!! I love it as well!!!😃
Greg, Solo is from America too n he has made lots of wonderful vlogs in KL.
@@Yasin_Affandi oh that's cool, Thanks for sharing 😃
@@TravelingSoloLogs No problem at all. Glad that u like Malaysia n d street food in this country, just like Greg n Jumi do. 😀
For sure!
@@FoodandFootprints Just a little sharing, Michelle Yeoh won d Oscar for best actress, she is from Ipoh, Malaysia. 😀
You both are so sweet, giving such lovely compliments of. Malaysia. Thank you so much. Malaysia loves you both too💕❤️
Thank you so much! We love Malaysia 😁😁
A very rare visit by foreign tourists is traveling to crab island (pulau ketam). Crab Island is located in the Klang Strait sea, which is near the port of Klang at the western end of the large metropolitan area of KL (Klang Valley). crab island promises interesting tours such as seafood, fishing villages, fishing, selling fresh fish, riding bicycles to visit residents' homes or around the island and affordable accommodation. how to get there? just happy take the KTM commuter train from KL Sentral, destination to Port Klang (pelabuhan klang). journey in 1 hour 15 minutes. from klang port jetty you can take a ferry to crab island. enjoy your visit !!
I appreciate your kind words about Malaysia. Malaysians seem to be generally amiable people, much like their counterparts in other Southeast Asian countries. As you can see, Malaysia is home to a multicultural society where different ethnicities get along well. due to its location in the heart of Southeast Asia, between China and India, the two major Asian nations. Malaysia acts as a centre for immigrants from other regions of the world and various Asian ethnic groups who want to settle here. Because Malaysia has a substantial Muslim population, it can recruit a sizable Middle Eastern community.
Yet, Malaysians tend to be relatively reticent people in general. Unless they really need our assistance, we usually let visitors travel around our nation on their own. We would be pleased to assist them if such were the case. We are more worried about not being perceived as invading their privacy or causing them unneeded anguish. Yet, we are happy to welcome both visitors and expats and invite them to get to know us as sociable individuals who can become wonderful friends with them.
Due to the fact that English is taught as a second language in our school system, it is a widely spoken language in Malaysia. While Bahasa Melayu is our official language, it is also commonly spoken here. Many foreigners can still communicate with us in at least basic English, which would explain why they don't try to learn any of our local tongues. Only those who genuinely want to fit in with the community will go above and above to at least become proficient in Bahasa.
In terms of food, Malaysia is a convenient location for obtaining both international cuisine and all Asian cuisines, including those from Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam. You can eat Indian food without going to India, Chinese food without going to China, and Arab food without going to the Middle East, for example, outside of Malay cuisine. They brought and kept their culinary traditions, customs, and celebrations, which gave Malaysia a broad variety of mouth-watering meals.
Even though you could discover that some tourist attractions are relatively pricey, the majority of them are free. Malaysia is often quite economical, reasonably priced, and worth your money. You can pick locations that fit your budget, from cheap accommodations frequented by beg-packer travellers and street food to upscale eateries and five-stars hotels.
According to the 2019 International Living Annual Global Retirement Index, Malaysia has the top healthcare in the world. Medical treatment has a very excellent track record of success and is comparable in price. It is among the main causes for which countless foreigners decide to travel to Malaysia for medical treatment.
While Kuala Lumpur isn't as vast and crowded as cities like Bangkok, Manila, Jakarta, and Ho Chi Minh City, it is also less difficult to go from one location to another. If you prefer quiet surroundings to the bustle and noise of big cities, come and stay in Kuala Lumpur or Malaysia. Because Malaysia is a country that is actually part of Asia, travelling there is like travelling around the entire continent, which is an additional benefit of doing so. Please consider Malaysia your second home in Asia any time you have the chance to visit again. Malaysia is truly Asia.
Your knowledge about Kuala Lumpur is very impressive❤❤❤❤ better than me 😂😂😂😂😊
Sounds cliche, but Malaysia is truly Asia and has something for everyone. Enjoy your stay!
We love the slogan “Malaysia Truly Asia.” Hope whoever came up with it was rewarded because it is perfect
Its a tagline of one of the Visit Malaysia campaign in the 80s or 90s. A song title *Malaysia Truly Asia* promoting Malaysia as tourists destination.
Totally agree with you guys! You guys have good taste.
Thank you so much! Appreciate that
I love that popiah and curry Mee kopitiam! I love that both of you visited Taiping. It is one of my favourite childhood towns. ❤️ ❤
We loved Taiping! Can see why it is one of your favorite childhood towns. So peaceful, the nice old shophouses, cheap and tasty food and of course the stunning lake gardens!
Thanks Greg and Jumi for always reminding how blessed we are with diversity, and of course.......our foods. Thank you again. We love you 🤗😘
Thank you so much!! We love sharing the beauty of Malaysia
KL d capital of Malaysia, indeed has lots of green pockets, green lungs, green areas n gardens like KLCC park, d Eco canopy walk, KL botanical garden, Lake Titiwangsa garden, Tugu garden n many more gardens in d Klang Valley n in Putrajaya.
So many nice parks! Titiwangsa is really nice too - peaceful and nice view of the skyline.
@@FoodandFootprints Yes, Lake Titiwangsa garden is also beautiful. It's just few minutes walk from my previous apt in KL. Too bad, with a 2nd depression, I got to let it go. Still eyeing for d blessings in disguise though. 😀
D Malaysian Indian thali looked really good, must have been delicious. Then a delicious looking Chinese beef noodles. Ending with a traditional Malay dish, nasi lemak.
All three were delicious!
@@FoodandFootprints Wonderful. 😀
Jumi, love your pink matching outfit. The hat makes it! The green is really pretty. I like how you guys go back forth explaining what is happening. A walkable city is key. You covered so much in 1 day. Congrats on getting so close to 25K subs. Thanks for taking us around. I’ll have to agree with Greg but I understood what Jumi was trying to say.
Thank you!! We are big walkers wherever we go so we appreciate places we can walk around a lot
We love to walk around KL my wife and I start with a walk around Perdana then off to Mederka Square via Bickfeilds and China Town around the corner to Changkat for a beer. You could of walked through Bikit Nanas and came out near the MRT turn left and also reach the old area. That's the best thing about KL so many ways to walk or get around.
Awesome! So true about all the different routes you can walk around the city. We stayed for a while in 2020 and walked around a ton
@FoodandFootprints I am lucky enough to work here it's a great place to live. We do a walk most weekends in Bukit Kiara trails it's a jungle walk just out near the Istana. There is a secret entrance on the side of the highway and once inside it's amazing.
Yes KL is a very conducive city for living a good life.
Couldn’t agree more!
Hopefully govt really apreciate kampung baru and focus to keep it as national treasure... we have a lot places to develope just like miri and bintulu.. its time to focus new development in sabah and sarawak....
Hope so too!
Good to hear that u enjoyed your walk from Little India on Jalan Brickfields to Chinatown at Petaling Street, to Kasturi Walk next to Central Market, to d colonial walk area, then to KLCC.
I've heard from some tourists n also experience it myself in KL that there r quite a few pedestrian walk in KL that r not properly paved, maintained, n sometimes, it's a dead end. U guys r awesome, u guys had no complaints, whatsoever n with lots of vibrant charming smiles.
Oh yes we did! We could’ve even walked more but the weather was about to rain. Sometimes there can be issues with the walkways but nothing too serious. It is still very walkable for us and we love walking wherever we go as long as we can. Thank you!!
@@FoodandFootprints U guys did an amazing walk around KL. It's hot, but u guys made it like I was walking in Madrid durimg spring, hehehe. 😀
Nice to live in Kampung Baru in the middle of Kuala Lumpur city. Easy to get local food , for sure.
Absolutely! We need to try more spots in Kg Baru
I have been to that park n walked around it
Yes it’s a quiet n relaxing park in the centre of a very busy city n the twin towers are spectacular both day n night n the water show too is amazing but there are more places to see n visit other than KL in Malaysia hope U2 get to see them much ❤❤❤❤ to you both ❤❤
Thank you so much! We spent a year in Malaysia from 2020-2021 and saw a lot of peninsular. We went to a few more new to us places this trip but a lot of time in KL/PJ to be with friends. Feels like home to us!
Welcome back to both of you. For a moment, I was confused because you guys look younger than before.
Thank you so much 4 such compliment.We are still learning and trying our best tho .Welcome to our country.
Thank you very much! We love Malaysia
The way you eat with your hand tells me that you are not a stranger. We have lots of updates for you. Welcome back..
Yes, d Petronas Twin Towers is indeed d most iconic landmark in KL, Malaysia, also in Southeast Asia, n in d world too.
Hehehe, I've told u guys before, n I'm going to tell u guys again, I feel so proud when I see vloggers like KLCC. I previously worked in d KLCC project, from d site office in 1993 (that site now is d KLCC convention n exhibition centre n Trader's Hotel) to migration to Tower 2 of d Petronas Twin Towers in 1997. It was a once in a lifetime working experience.
D KLCC park n KLCC area was once a turf club, a horse race course. D KLCC park itself was a design by a famous Brazilian artist, d late Roberto Burle Marx. D architectect of d Petronas Twin Towers, I guess u guys already know, was an Argentinian American, d late Cesar Pelli. D shimmering, day n night curtain wall of steel n glass claddings were all imported from a factory in America. There were many American n European professionals as architects, strucutal engineers, project n risk management consultants in d making of d KLCC project. Due to d project management knowledge n technology transfer, Malaysia was able to built a new well developed city, Putrajaya, on its own credibility.
Appreciate your hardwork and the KLCC team for our iconic towers. Go back and forth the world, there isn't any twin tower that can beat ours. Thank you
@@priscillang1097 Yes, d Petronas Twin Towers, in my humble opinion, r d most beautiful twin buildings in d world. KL n d Malaysian can be proud of this milestone achievement. 😀
@Yasin Affandi it never fails to amaze me. Pride of the country. A breathtaking and spectacular structure that can never be duplicated. Heartful thanks to Tun Mahathir for this masterpiece🙏💖
Fascinating content! Love this new edit of your vlog but most of all makes me happy to see you both healthy and able to enjoy Malaysia. You are both so kind. Thank you. Sending love😘😘😘
Really appreciate that - thank you!! 🙏
Kuala Lumpur is symbolising a tolerant and accommodative culture of the natives in Malay peninsular. You can't see this in Hong Kong, Seoul, new Delhi or even in Singapore!
We love this about KL!
Wow amazing mlysia thanks shearing video
Thank you very much!
Awesome video! So happy to see how much you both like KL!
We appreciate that - thank you!
Nice video ❤😊
We appreciate that - thank you!
This video is somehow so soothing. Great edit guys!
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it
Nostalgic. That petronas petrol kiosk in Brickfields waswhere I grew up in half a century ago when it was still squatters houses
So cool. We love the vibe around there with the older open air restaurants
No doubt
Thank you
Greg & Jumi ... No place like it maybe bcoz it is d melting pot in Southeast Asia ... It is already naturally a diverse city with its Malaysian multi - racialism and multi - culturalism plus with many other foreigners be they expatriates or foreign students and foreign workers, refugees from d middle east etc ... Bcoz it is so diverse due to internal & external factors as i have mentioned earlier, it is Truly Asia and truly diverse .... Diverse in culture and diverse in food obviously ... Thus this is why it makes KL so unique plus it is a clean and modern city with good infrastructures, unique and beautiful architectures and at d same time still has those lovely greenery and lush in it .... Again another great video of KL from u guys ... Thank u guys .... Very beautiful and informative content indeed especially to those who have never been to KL or those who have that not much knowledge of KL ... Thanks guys for another great video, this time covering KL ... Great city indeed ....
Absolutely! KL has SO much going for it and you nailed the many positives. Appreciate the thoughtful comment and support 🙏
wow nice explore. Enjoy!! --MinuteTour
Thank you!
You should visit Kota Raya shopping centre
Its a Filipino enclave
and bangladeahis as well, if they move to backstreets of sogo, off jalan isfahan they will see little Karachi there haha
We have! Went a bunch when we were here back in 2020. Nice to get some Filipino snacks and food there!

Terima Kasih
Sama sama!
Good day guys. Hope you all happy all the time.
Thank you so much! Malaysia makes us happy
At China town , you should go to kotaraya mall. It a little Pinoy over there. 90% vendor from the Philippines.
Oh yes we have been several times in 2020!
DBKL sud really consider establishing that area as little Manila in addition to little India and China town
Wow, that used to be my regular lunch spot
Oh which one??
@@FoodandFootprints the vegetarian stall. There are several vegeterian restaurants around the corner. If you walk towards the end of the street, you'll see Gandhi's which is also highly recommended.
Thanks for the recommendation! We love the vibe of the open air stalls on that street
Go to bukit bintang n changkat KL..
We have - love going for shawarma there!
KL central park, yeah, you can say it. 😁
For sure! We love KLCC Park
Glad to see you back here looking healthy though Jumi has lost some weight I think🤭
Thank you! She did
Among those who had visited Kg Baru are the late Queen Elizabeth 2 and Muhammad Ali
Now that is cool to learn!
Hi bro icc pudu food court is cheap n good open morning only.
Thank you! We went there back in 2020 a few times. Love the Hainan Tea from Ah Weng Koh
Kuala Lumpur is a melting pot of Asian cultures.. various foods from Western and Eastern, Northern and Southern you can find in KL.. it's indeed a unique city in the world 👍🇲🇾😋
Couldn’t agree more!
Absolutely 😊
KL Is the best place in the world, no other place is better than KL.
True dat.
Love KL!!
Hi bro people said in southeast Asia not in the world, can you read English or not?
i would like to call it "URBAN JUNGLE".. in the middle of concrete city.
I like that! I (Greg) always think of concrete jungle being tons of buildings with little trees 🤣
@@FoodandFootprints yeah... now you know what i mean... and feel great to relax after hard day doing.
Love kL
Yes so do we!
👍👍👍
Thank you! 🙏
Remember nasi kukus? 😅
Of course we do! Will have to get a plate soon
Howdy guys, kumasta? beware of aswang in the park haha have a nice day. cheers
Kuala lumpur Big durian not Big apple.lol
Haha thank you! Big Durian is perfect 🤣🤣🤣
I know KL is great but besides the twin towers and a few other places to look at I was not that impressed. Penang and Singapore are a must for foodies. The MRT in Singapore especially is great for food because of the MRT. Penang on the east side and Georgetown and especially Gurney Drive have a better array of food. The buses in Penang are quite modern and very reasonably priced, although we used the Taxi service most of the time. If you can find a Taxi Driver who is reasonably priced, stick with him and he will take you to the best eating spots in Penang. You can even shout him some food and the price becomes more reasonable. Love the place.
Oh really ? Ever been to Singapore ?
Erm everyone entitled to their own personal experiences etc.. sg is for me too sterile and feels like living inside a surveillance box it seems.btw every city got their own pro and cons. Just enjoy our short life
@@mir7684 yea, the usual BS spouted by envious Malaysians
We have. Nice, but KL is much more our speed
Why is Singapore not?!
We prefer KL - affordability, great vibe and more
@@FoodandFootprints Thanks for the reply. Enjoy Malaysia!
*Owhhh NOOO ...*
*U cant say that ... or else those in the "South" would have sleepless nights and wud be rather UPSET ya know*
