[@Danielle410able]

the history of nasi katok. Nasi : Rice Katok : Knocking in the old days, people use to sell nasi lemak as a hawker going places to places and also in kampong air we used to have a hawker on boat where we call them as "Padian"... they would sell some daily necessities like some malay kueh, vegetables and also other foods. yet when time goes by... these hawkers started to sell their food from their house like a house shops. why these Nasi lemak is being called as "Nasi Katok"? this is because when they sell their Nasi Katok at their own house, people who want to buy turns to knock on the sellers door. so that is how it got its name.

[@DodoExplorers]

That's such an interesting story, thank you for sharing!

Hello, kabayan. May mga tanong po sana ako in regards to living in Brunei as a Filipino but not as an OFW. Pwede po ba kayong makausap outside this thread? Greatly appreciate your response in advance. Maraming salamat po.

[@englishenglish444]

I love your videos. Thank you for making this content about the country in English. 😊 Have a great day ahead. And I loooove "nasi katok". I know all average Bruneians do. It's sort of a signature dish.

[@hermanduh7037]

Nasikatok is consider as 2nd place for best and signature brunei dish after ambuyat... Both U shud find and taste different sambal... Belacan cheese, nanas, tahai, pedas hijau and many more...

[@tracynimpact1704]

Thank you for visiting Brunei.... I suggest you to contact these places, 1. Eco Ponies Garden 2. Sumbiling Eco Village 3. Kunyit 7 Lodge 4. Mark Putera Delima 5. Poni Divers 6. Teraja Longhouse They will show you real Bruneian food, cultures, fun and adventures !

[@daffodilkinder8593]

I miss Brunei!!! I want to go back there!!!!

[@ariefzulfadhly]

[@DeaNNaHJr]

Just to tell you Dodo explorers, "Bubuk" is a small shrimps that can be dried up in the sun and it turns to called "Bubuk Kering" after the finished process ; its one of the side dishes when eating ambuyat. We also preseved this seafood as "budu"/"cincaluk" or fermented shrimp good eating with hot plate of plain rice & some kampong salads such as cucumber, simsai, daun jagus & so on. Its also can make as a sauce for the ambuyat dipper mixed with another ingredients. Thumbs Up. This "bubuk" also can be a snack called "Cucur Bubuk" (Bubuk fritters) or "Tumpi Bubuk" (Bubuk pancakes)” with delicious homemade sauce.🤤😋😊

Bubuk is the small shrimp u ate in Gadong night market called cucur bubuk

[@elwwmatrix]

Finally someone brought you to The Empire Hotel. So luxurious but very old style from 30 years ago.

[@excelsior31107]

Don't you realize that every time foreigners come to Brunei to make a video, they will be taken to the same place that has not changed at all and is not very interesting. From my observation, the interesting video about Brunei is none other than the typical Bruneian food which is the nasi katok. Boring! But every time a commercial documentary from a foreign country wants to make a report for a real story that reflects the brand identity of a product or about the economy and political views in this country it is rejected and not allowed to enter by the Bruneian authorities. Isn't that scary?

[@BAimanMansor]

Thank you Michael and Gg for visiting Brunei. Glad that you like the Nasi Katok, should try other dishes cooked with Brunei own traditional cooking style. As i heard from a friend of mine from Australia they liked and missed that original Bruneian cooking style. Hope one day when you're back in Brunei you could request it. Anyway I like your content it was magnificent I hope it would attract other tourists to come and visit Brunei. All the best to both of you and may god bless all your journeys. Thank you very much and cheers.

[@DodoExplorers]

Thank you so much dear, so happy you watch our exploration through Brunei- and yes, nasi katok is the easiest, most delicious dish we tried in Brunei!

[@DeaNNaHJr]

Mostly Bruneian Peoples are friendlier. Maybe they misinterpreted your words "hang out". Actually Bruneian like to hang out at the malls, cinemas, cafes or indoor/outdoor restaurant. For Bruneian to hang out at thier places u shall tell them earlier because they'll cook delicious food/light snacks but still get your stomach full instead of emptied. As Bruneian we welcome our guests with full hand. That is why I do not understand when Michael said Bruneian people are nice & friendly but when you asked them to hangout at their place/house than you said that we like to be in our private surrounding/environment. For Bruneian custom if you're consider as our guests than you want to hang out at our place at the sameday, we'll have to reject it at the first place but we'll asked them to come to our place the next day/during weekend because we'll prepare homemade food & plan an activities with our guests. We served our guests as a king for a day. I also have brought some guests touring in water village because I'm living there almost from birth to nowadays. I brought Japanese couples, Italian photographer, Hongkong females tourist, ex Ceo of total Final Elf (French Wife) & her Burmese/Myanmar friend to my house. I brought them to see the Bruneian Malay wedding, travelling the Brunei river & mangrove forest to show them the crocs, probiscs monkeys & phytons as well as showing the sultan palace from the Brunei river view. Its a long tume experienced. I did it in the late 90's - early 20's. On behalf of our Bruneian peoples, we apologised to the Dodo Explorers regarding the matters that you feel uneased towards some peoples you've meet.

[@DeaNNaHJr]

Sometimes when the tourists wanted to experience the life of a person living at the water village for 3days/a week, you can stay at the kunyit 7 lodge.

[@Danielle410able]

there is plenty places you can try nasi katok... for nasi katok is up to every individual taste buds... yet the dude you've met at the nasi katok joint is a tour guide and his name is michael. cool dude... next time would love to host you guys for a day.

@@DodoExplorers wow u replied to my comment love from brunei 🇧🇳 btw

[@excelsior31107]

Actually, it is difficult to get Bruneians who can really explain the real situation in Brunei in a true and sincere way because most of them (not all) do not have communication skills to say especially to outsiders. As a Bruneian myself, i am saddened to see the situation in my own country like in Bandar as if it were still in the 80s, not like in other countries i have visited which are far more developed. Also, there are only few not so interesting places to visit in Brunei especially for foreigners other than spending more time on food in well known restaurants for the process of bloating the stomach. For believers who believe the existence of 72 virgins in heaven for the good deeds, they can do their religious practice in beautiful mosques in Brunei and make their daily prayers in a language they do not understand. Even though they know that the Islamic religion is the country's first priority that needs to be respected.

[@Realhumanitey]

I donno how the belief in 72 virgins is connected to Brunei sutuation.??why u even mention it, if not to tarnish their rel8gion [if u r not moslem i.e.].i believe its more to other management system instead of theb72 virgins....look at other Islamic countries, Malaysia, Duvai etc......helloooooo

[@annlord928]

There's lots for a short stay in Brunei. Royal Regalia, Kg Ayer, river cruise to see proboscis monkeys, 2 museums in Kota Batu, Arts and Crafts centre, Temburong National Park, night safari on the river to see crocodiles! Also shopping and the beach! I lived in Brunei for 24 years. Love ❤️ it!

[@Realhumanitey]

After all...nothing wrong with old style cities....building modernisations do not guarantee peacefulness...look at some third wirld countries, their suicide rates is minimal compared to Japan, S korea, USA where crimes are unbelievable!!!😆

[@excelsior31107]

@@Realhumanitey Actually i don't really care about the old buildings, what i care about is liberty in this country and i believe that normal people generally also wanted the same thing. We have to accept the fact that this life is not a fairy tale. Liberty is everything and if Brunei doesn't have that and is always given unreasonable praise like Brunei is perfect that's what makes it problematic. Something has to go through difficulties before it becomes perfect am i right? It should be mentioned that the Law in this country can be nuanced and complicated. Although in practice the police here usually get a warrant from the magistrate, but the police also have broad powers to arrest without a warrant. So are the laws in this country that allow government intrusion into the privacy of individuals, families or homes, although this rarely happens. Here, people who make honest criticisms are guilty and can be jailed without a trial. Is that what is called security? I am not surprised if my online communication has also been monitored. For those who have been in possession, intrusion is not illegal. By the way, there is no universal definition where this speech is hate speech under International Human Rights Law, especially as it relates to freedom of opinion and expression. And there is no such thing as miraculous salvation as people here are told to believe. That is just a tool to exercise individual political power. We are told that this country is a free country, but if you take a closer look it is not true at all and the report from Freedom house also agrees. Brunei's independence is only due to being freed from colonization by Great Britain. And how can that be called colonialism if the previous Sultan himself wanted the British as his advisers at that time? But Bruneians today have never been given a clear understanding of what independence actually means. And what do you think it means? As i always wonder what are the deaf dumb blind people will say about this.

[@oneness87]

@@excelsior31107 well..that's your own opinion&perspective...just a question, are you currently staying in Brunei..or are you one of those Bruneians who has migrated to another country for a long while ago? Appreciate your honesty mate..from your fellow Bruneian as well😉

BND300 is actually cheap for the luxury you get compared to a 4-5 star hotel in KL

[@svdwaffle]

Every room and area has different prices. The cheapest room is Superior (B$300 per night) and the most expensive one is the Villa, I believe it reaches B$1k for one night. I usually go to Deluxe with Executive Lounge room which costs B$395 per night.
