Now best nasi lemak score is always in the morning..if you are in the bustling KL city, the stall be somewhere between highrise building, under some canopy or big umbrella. Of course no seating area cos its a pack n eat later. Most shop eatery operates till wee hours. Best eatery sometimes in a housing area. Welcome again...hope you enjoy much we had to offer..😍

[@JackTorr]

Thanks for the tip, Noor Azlina! It's good to know that the best nasi lemak can be found in the morning at stalls located in busy areas of KL. And it's good to know that some of the best places to try it can be found in residential areas. I'll keep that in mind when I'm looking for a tasty nasi lemak!

You're not the only one bro. I remember a youtube video a few years back about an Englishman who was in the middle of a holiday in Spain (or was it Portugal?) who suddenly had a craving for nasi lemak and decided to buy a plane ticket to Malaysia just for nasi lemak. There are actually several good Malaysian restaurants in Sydney with decent nasi lemak. Don't know about other places in Australia.

8:23 it's a fried dried anchovies, Nasi Lemak have it all the flavour,the sweetness and spiciness from the sambal,the fragrance of coconut milk and pandan leaf,the crunchiness of peanut and the saltiness of dried anchovies,mix it together while it's hot,if it's too hot and spicy the coolness and freshness of cucumber slice and softness of boiled egg will help you around that, a warm teh tarik(pulled milk tea) will quench your thirst and warm your bodies from the cold in the morning, it was a heaven on earth eating nasi lemak while enjoying the Malaysia scenery 😁😁

[@JackTorr]

Thanks for the lowdown, Fork Mee Noodle. It sounds like Nasi Lemak is one tasty dish, with all the different flavours and textures going on. I can see how the dried anchovies, sambal, coconut milk and pandan leaf, peanuts, cucumber, and egg all come together to make one hell of a meal. And you're right, a hot cuppa teh tarik would be the perfect drink to wash it all down with. Can't wait to give it a go!

If someone make a complaint about their cleanliness, the authorities will take action.

Yes, it's true that many vloggers and travelers make a point to try the famous Ramly Burger and Nasi Lemak while they're in Kuala Lumpur. These dishes have become iconic street food in Malaysia and are definitely worth trying for anyone visiting the city. Welcome back to the comments! I remember your comments from last time I was in malaysia!

[@slebetman]

Generally street vendors don't pay rent but they do need to get a license. That's basically their "rent" to the city council. Obviously once you go outside of cities and towns a lot of the vendors by the highway/roads don't even have licenses. However you do find places where people have converted empty land or unused parking lot into street food/food truck "park". In those places the vendors pay rent to the organizer. Additionally you sometimes find an entire street turn into a temporary/pop-up market (often called "pasar malam" or "pasar tani" etc. - "pasar" being the Malay word for bazaar). In such cases the vendors also pay rent to the organizer who are often the city council.

If you're looking for nasi lemak sold in banana leaf triangle packaging, you have to find it early morning. Between 7am-9am. After that it is hard to find nasi lemak. You have to order from restaurants like the Nasi Lemak Wanjo shop. Try the nasi lemak original and compare the taste. But it is also quite hard to find if you're not locals. Maybe ask around

Thank you for the tip, AudreyB. I'll make sure to look for nasi lemak sold in banana leaf triangle packaging early in the morning, between 7am and 9am.

[@xsaiful91]

Nasi lemak are Malaysia national dish. But you can find something similar in Indonesia called nasi uduk. The rice kinda the same but the side dishes might be slightly different. The similarities between the two countries are abundant since many of Malay & Indonesian shares similar ancestor. Not everyone though but you get the idea

[@hanawolfgang]

Only your ancestors are from Indonesia, many malaysians have no connection with Indonesia. In the state of Kelantan, most of the people there are of siamese and pakistani descent.

Thank you for the information, Saiful Amin. I wasn't aware that Nasi Uduk, which is similar to Nasi Lemak, can also be found in Indonesia. It's interesting to know that many of the Malay and Indonesian dishes share similarities due to the shared ancestor between the two countries. It makes sense that there would be some overlap in the cuisine. I'll definitely keep an eye out for Nasi Uduk on my travels in Indonesia and compare the differences in the side dishes.

8:56 wow..man... it is a dangerous question. It is like answering if pavlova is from kiwi or oz. 😂😂 JK. Indonesia and Malaysia Both have same root of ancestors, so having similar delicacies is not a strange things. Maybe some different ingredients like you says in the video. About the truck food/stall, may be different city different way to operate, as here in Labuan,any type of business must have permission/licence from Local Authorities, for truck i think the truck must fit with Puspakom specifications and need to be registered as commercial vehicle (sort of) and have scheduled inspection. When the hawker or seller want to set up the try,they must make sure the place is not dangerous or being obstacle to road users.
