Welcome to our beautiful Malaysia guys ❤😊🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾

Hi.. Drinking milk before eating durian can eliminate belching and bad breath. This is because the sulfur content in durian will be bound by the fat and protein of milk or coconut milk which will help reduce the smell of durian. You can also drink an original flavour of yourgart after eating durian cake because it can neutralize gas in the intestines..

Hi. My Canadian friend, during our exhibition in Langkawi,I fell in love with nasi lemak. He ate breakfast lunch and dinner for a full 4 days.

[@penukulbesi4006]

Your video is quite interesting because you explore one area in detail without mixing it with other areas.

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

We couldn't find a lot of videos that covered Merdeka Square in more detail, so we decided to make one ourselves. 😁 Thanks for noticing it mainly stayed in one place!

That potato we call 'begedil', many Malay(Melayu) dish use coconut milk as ingredients. If you plan to visit Malaysia again recommend you come on 31st August "Hari Merdeka" or 16th September"Hari Malaysia", join the celebrations 🇲🇾

Howdy from Texas ! Stinky tofu from Taiwan battles Malaysia durian fruit sound like a good fight to me 😂😂

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

We're in trouble if we go somewhere that sells stinky tofu AND durian at the same time! 😂 😂

[@norzilahaziz6695]

Durian strong smell will win the battle..haha..

[@norzilahaziz6695]

Welcome to mlysia..you tried durian? Haha..local peoples love durian..hopefully you vope wth the strong pungent smell..

[@cse343]

I was amazed. There was Korean letter!

[@user-kp2sz1ez9z]

I think chicken rice is the perfect meal for you guys as a beginner Have a good day

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Subtle but tasty

[@Yasin_Affandi]

Thank you for this wonderful video. Welcome to KL, Malaysia. Subscribed. Really glad that you liked the nasi lemak.

[@Yasin_Affandi]

Really glad to see you guys visited the religious places near the Merdeka square. When you were in front of the mosque, I can hear takbir Raya, it could be the day for Eidul Fitri or Eidul Adha.

[@Yasin_Affandi]

Just a little info, Eidul Fitri or Hari Raya Aidilfitri or Puasa marks the end of fasting month in Ramadan welcoming first day of Syawal, that was around last April this year, and Eidul Adha or Hari Raya Aidiladha or Haji, marks the end of pilgrimage in Mecca, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, that was around July this year. The Islamic calendar is shorter than the calendar we use, so the dates for both Eids come around 15 days earlier each year.

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

Thank you! And thank you for the additional information. 😊

[@Yasin_Affandi]

@@TalesFromOurPocket You are welcome. 😀

[@kamrulz659]

Red sause consists of chillies n shrimp paste.the function of cucumber is to reduce the spicy of sambal or red sauce.people eats nasi lemak with the mixing of sambal n coconut ruce together not seperately rendang is so marvelous bcos its cooked with variety of tropical herbs n spices😂

[@Glee73]

lovely video. really enjoy the way you share your experiences. the editing and music is also great! hope you've enjoyed your stay in KL, my hometown.

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

Thank you very much! 😊♥️

[@vivaliliy1562]

Welcome to Malaysia, go try the chinese herbs dish called “Bak Kut Teh”, local indian bread roti canai & malay dish called satay. Other cities worth going are Ipoh, Penang, Malacca.

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

Thank you! Those cities look beautiful. 😍

[@askarsepoi]

we still use that sultan abdul samad building as federal court during 2004/2005. at least I'm also went there many times for handle few court cases. Later all the court moved to new building located opposite of federal mosque.

The oldest Anglican Church in SEA is in Penang, north of Msia. The oldest Catholic & Protestan Churches in SEA is in Melaka.

To know Malaysia is to love Malaysia Selamat datang.... welcome to Malaysia

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Most malay food is spicy guys

[@nikhassan7713]

As a beginner for Nasi Lemak and other Malay /Malaysian spicy food, next time choose Ayam Goren (fried chicken) and chicken rendang also has a tame spicy. Another Malay traditional dish is Nasi Kerabu, which is a healthy version of meal with mixed of veggies and blue rice coloured by purple/blue pea flowers. Malaysian Indian food and Malaysian Chinese cuisines also different than Indian or Chinese foods in USA or their motherlands as they incorporated with local taste. Try also Peranakan (Baba and Nyonya) cuisines which is fusion of Chinese and Malay due to their heritages founded in Straits Settlement (Melaka, Penang and Singapore).. and if you go to Malaysian Borneo there are more other cuisines. Malaysia is food heaven so much varieties..

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

Thank you for the great recommendations!! So excited to try eating other foods in Malaysia!

[@jylaw9495]

We love durian cake! 😜

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

😁😁😁

[@charlesjc893]

Welcome to Malaysia TFOP. you are in FOOD HEAVEN, so don't shy away from trying our varieties of cuisine. If you love nature then do visit Cameron Highlands & Kundasang Highlands & Mt Kinabalu in Sabah. Awesome videos by the way. 😊

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

Thanks for the tips!! 😊 😊

[@richardsoane6192]

Enjoyable as always

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

Thank you! 🙏😊

KL/Malaysia comes alive at night when it's cooler. Don't be surprised to see kids running around still or babies in strollers at midnight with their parents 😁 Lots of learning curves when one travels, right? Durian is like blue cheese,,,yowzaaa....Stay safe, guys. Looking forward to your next adventure.

[@emman2702]

Its not like blue cheese at all.durian is delicious

[@Andy-zr3mp]

Welcome to Malaysia guys 😎

The red sauce on the ayam masak merah is actually made from tomatoes, onions some chilli and spices. Enjoy Nasi Lemak.😄

Thanks, Naomi!! 😊

Feel the Malaysia heat n malaysian vibes. I am sure you are in for a treat.

I love durian! Ah i can't wait to have durian ice cream soon ❤❤❤❤❤ Although I'm not Malaysian, it's probably my Asian palate so it makes me giddy just thinking about tasting it again soon hahaha

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

Hahaha, we're still working on our durian palate!! 😁😂

[@queva3062]

It is not " like coconut rice " IT IS coconut rice !!😂😂😂😂😂.

The oldest Anglican church in South East Asia is the one in Penang, which was built in 1816.

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

We will visit it! I guess we can't believe everything we read online. 😂 😂

[@keangwooichoo6138]

No. The oldest anglican church is in penang island.

[@wolger]

Ya it should be St. George Anglican Church in Penang.

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

Thanks for the correction! What we read must have been wrong. 😊

[@paklang1412]

Mat Saleh always says 'bau durian tak sedap tapi rasa sedap.

[@hanistarbright]

You should try durian icecream. Better that cake.

Don't try to touch the Asian fruit king, if your tongue hasn't been changed..

This is really Hougang 🇸🇬

[@zaharizak]

Merdeka Square is your favorite site in KL eh? Yes.. you can say that on day one as long as you have "so far" at the end. Otherwise you would be jumping the gun.

[@secrets.295]

Don't worry not every local loves Durian. I can't stand it too 😅. Just the smell of it can make me feel like I'm going to vomit. When I was a child my dad used to buy a lot of Durians that he would end up not finishing. He would open some of it and then realize he could not finish it and store it in the fridge. The entire fridge will smell like Durian and even if I want to eat something like a corn flake or cheese from the fridge, it will feel & smell like Durian. 😂. Btw you guys have a lovely personality. I really enjoyed watching it.

[@theresatan7749]

No point in trying durian when you have already made up your mind that you wont like it.

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

We might surprise you! Foods in their natural state often taste different from a cooked version. We have open minds. 😊

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Careful, even kampung baru may not be authentic for long in terms of food as foreigners are coming in eg indonesians, arabs, south asians..

[@sempoi7399]

Nasi lemak is still authentic Malay

[@mohdsyazni7997]

hello. please use spoon to eat rice. much better than fork

[@nashanordin]

I can finish that durian cake.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

I can take the whole 1kg cake

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

Bill gave it his best effort, we promise! It was such a beautiful cake. 😍

[@wolger]

Gym socks haha

[@mir7684]

Well durian is way better than blue cheese atleast lol😅

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

100% agreed on that!

boo

[@baharm65]

haa..haaa…durian is not just for you guys

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

We're willing to give the actual, natural fruit a try - it will probably go better for us. Sometimes baking things changes the flavor too much!

[@baharm65]

@@TalesFromOurPocket it is tottaly okey if you dont like durian. Even some malaysian local could not tolerate durian. Anyway, pls have fun and good time while in malaysia.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Come on, stinky tofu is worst. Durian is aromatic. And it is a fruit. Tofu is man-made

[@petertan1653]

Pls try the fruit itself. Not durian cake. U might like it😑
