We found nasi lemak heaven... 🇲🇾

[@FoodandFootprints]

Village Park has our favorite fried chicken of all-time anywhere in the world! Our blood was probably 40% Village Park nasi lemak ayam goreng during MCO 😂😂

[@tomiemyspace5054]

Wow! All-time...

[@JetLagWarriors]

hahaha come backkkkkkkkkkk

[@askarsepoi]

see, even tourists already get used power of hand in Malaysia..🤣

[@penjejakarus5033]

You should try nasi lemak taman tenaga cheras..behind petronas..famous with locals..

[@mansplash1238]

I don't know where the place is located. I lived in Ampang (8 km from KLCC),,,,But almost 8 years I haven't go to KL downtown except Low Yat Plaza in Bukit Bintang looking for computer stuff etc.....

[@FoodandFootprints]

Awesome you guys got to finally try Village Park! Thanks for the shout-out, guys 😁

[@megzulaikhalaiabdullah6250]

Hai...Greg and Jumi....when are you coming back to Malaysia 🤗

[@cikman4950]

Congratulations Steve for using Malaysian "hand power" to stop the traffic 😁😁😁

[@kylek2623]

Belacan is Fermented Prawn paste.. my favourite in my every meal..

[@lindaregislee5125]

Yesssss! About time too. Hope you both have a wonderful experience in Sabah.

[@chaw294]

Oh gosh, genuine nasi lemak vs fake nasi lemak icecream ..very interesting, amazing and a good experience. I guess many Malaysians haven't come across nasi lemak ice cream...l'm one of them 😂🤣😂🤣 A big shout-out to Creme de la Creme...will definately try it when l visit my daughter in KL. A big thanks to Steve lvana for sharing and showing me/us this interesting "dessert"...😍

[@AlexSDU]

Eating nasi lemak without sambal is like eating pasta without it's sauce. 🤣🤣🤣 Also, belacan don't use anchovy. It's a shrimp paste. And those fried chickens, Ken would love them.

[@fitri6188]

The best nasi lemak in kl is located at warung wanjo, the line up sometime almost on the street just to get n taste it

[@dianegreig4627]

Food looks amazing!! Ice cream store is very creative!! Keep safe, healthy and happy.

[@FoodandFootprints]

Question for Steve - ayam goreng from Village Park or Maliki Nasi Kukus?

[@Xeras10]

For sure Nasi Kukus Ayam Berempah 😁🙌

[@JetLagWarriors]

Mmmmmmmm I would still say Maliki but Village park was amazing too!!!!

[@mohdradziaziziabdaziz3915]

maliki is the best..but sadly its already totally closed at subang..dunno if they're move to new place or not running the bussiness anymore😢..

[@queenb5289]

u make me miss Malaysia 🥲🥲🥲 currently in USA

[@pitwandesu2459]

as a Malaysian who has same tongue as Steve, I understand really well how anchovies taste for us..I'm the only one in my family who can detect anchovies in sambal even though other people say they couldn't taste the anchovies..i usually eat nasi lemak with kuah masak kicap (ayam/daging)

[@flyingfox3766]

True some people have more sensitive sense. For me durian sometimes smell like the sewage/drain/dirty toilet 😅… but the taste is ok

[@Yasin_Affandi]

Look forward to watching it later.

[@Yasin_Affandi]

Good to see u guys explore good food outside city centre. There r lots of good food in d Klang Valley not just in KL. U found some of them. Lovely.

[@FoodandFootprints]

Ordering extra ayam goreng on the side is a must here!

[@yusasmayusoff8046]

Steve, the sambal in nasi lemak is different from the sambal belacan that you eat raw with cucumber as salad. It is called sambal tumis and not sambal belacan. And yes Ivana, you are right about the lemongrass as one major ingredients in the ayam goreng rempah. Lots of shallots and lemongrass.

[@tolikfox007]

Ya'll 2 are so cute man lol. As a Malaysian watching from the US, i am so jealous coz we dont have anythign like that here! Nasi lemak ice cream!!!! Wut!!!!

[@hvfxzvh]

My take frm this video is i am hungry now and that ayam berempah fuhhh 😳👏👏

[@leekengseong]

Sambal is the soul of nasi lemak, Steve how can you skip that

[@AlexSDU]

True. It's like pasta sauce. You can't have pasta without it's sauce. Same goes for nasi lemak.

[@blackknightshark7732]

Nasi lemak ice cream looks so unique, fantastic ..so creative and of course at another level. Never imagine nasi lemak will be that futuristic..lol 😅 So lucky you guys gave it a try at least once in your life time.

[@kennytancg]

Steve - correction, belacan is made of tiny shrimp (krill like). Its actually shrimp paste. Most sambals or Malay cooking tend to have a bit of belacan.

[@nellyzartystory5542]

You are right!!

[@sabn1124]

masyaAllah..i love this couple husband and wife !!

[@karenteng3183]

'Belacan' is make from tiny shrimps!...dried under hot sun..for numerous days.Huiya!, you guys can make orders using bm...Great jobs..keep on speaking!..in no time u sounds like locals.much love.

[@azlantahir7368]

For me the best nasi lemak would be the santan (coconut milk) must be from an old, almost dried coconut as the taste is much more concentrated. Also I prefer the sambal to be sambal bawang (onion samball) which my aunt, my late grandmother and late mother used to make it. Hardly I can find it in KL or Selangor except only certain shops in Negeri Sembilan...So far, the tastiest sambal bawang I have ever had is, in one of the shop in Lenggeng Negeri Sembilan and 2 shops in my hometown Rembau Negeri Sembilan...Just simple plain nasi lemak made from santan of dried coconut, sambal bawang, peanuts, anchovies, cucumber and egg

[@samleelee47]

Selamat datang ke Sabah ❤️✌️😎✌️🇲🇾

[@HalinaMY]

Owh yeahhhhh!!!! Village park is the best!!

One-day will try Nasi Lemak Ice Cream

[@zainalnasir369]

It’s awesome and i never 👂🏻 about it Tq guy........

[@leealex24]

Yes, I agree with you. Nasi Lemak is a favorite among all races.

[@jaizx6]

[@MrMamad83]

baru makan sodap.

[@zultana2078]

Nasi Lemak saleha even better than this village park. Village park is just over rated bcoz half of its share owned by a famous malay artist , Neelofa.

[@maverickfhl]

It been a year never visit Nasi Lemak Park Village, aw simply miss it. Thank for sharing 💗

[@asyrafyap110]

Sedap 😋😋😋

[@megzulaikhalaiabdullah6250]

My favourite Nasi lemak village park at Damansara Utama Pjaya.....👍👍😋😋

[@sharazia.r.5219]

last time i was there...i had nasi lemak daging rendang steve 😁

[@norfaeizasamani9604]

Belacan is shrimp paste.. anchovies is budu if not mistaken..Ivana ..that why it say spoonful 🤪🤪..we don't use fork 😬 as much as spoon as our dishes are always come with gravy aka kuah...with fork we can't get any kuah 😅

[@Cpfcharlie2929]

Nasi Lemak is all over in Malaysia , many foods& tidbits with nasi lemak taste......burger, pizza, popcorn, chips, drinks

[@suriatysamsury5252]

FYI SAMBAL BELACAN n SAMBAL NASI LEMAK is two different things 1. For SAMBAL NASI LEMAK dried chillies+onions+belacan +etc hv to cook well 2. SAMBAL BELACAN Cili Padi +belacan+sugar +salt +lime juice n.just eat fresh with out cook

[@Vavayalaaaaa]

This is definitely at Village Park

2:09 can! Can! Can! Omg your a full fledge Malaysian now man! 👍👍😂😂

[@zaigozeng]

You can try WANJO in Kampung Baru

[@MrClarity8]

My favourite still is nasi lemak Tanglin ❤

[@redflamelcd]

If you’re talking about nasi lemak biasa meaning without any accompaniments, it’s the sambal that differentiates one from another. Without sambal, it’s not the same. What I would recommend is to keep eating the sambal even though you may not enjoy it. Our brains can learn to tolerate and even enjoy flavours after much repetition. Think of any food you disliked as a child but then love as an adult. No BS, it’s all in your head just remember that. Keep at it

[@Xeras10]

You guys should try onde2 ice cream by Nestle...but im not sure they still have it or just for limited time... For me its quite good 😁

[@hamidah7727]

Should try 'Nasi lemak 7E Beratur.'...at maluri but U have to que start 4 am ... because 6 am finish already.. 😅

[@eat.live.travel]

Wow that nasi lemak ice cream looks amazing! So creative!

[@fab8490]

Yes we do have al that. Nasi lemak cheesecake, nasi lemak burgers, etc.

[@sharamli1]

Ice. Cream engineering…i like tht…..

[@mainarabiyan1865]

Sedaplah bro👍👍

[@fazaha.k.7865]

Its not sambal belacan steve. Its sambal tumis. And not all sambal tumis has belacan in it. Depends on the cook. Also belacan is not made from anchovies. Its from very small tiny shrimp. Sambal belacan is red chillies pounded with belacan with a bit of salt and sugar. Sometimes onions is added. Sometime slices of mango is added. Depends on the cook 😃😃😃. Ok hope steve will say the correct name of the sambal after this ya.

[@AouPannnie]

I’m with Steve on belacan. I’m a Malay Malaysian but I don’t fancy belacan either :/ Also, I used to tell ppl this too so it’s understandable how everyone says nasi lemak = fatty rice, but I believe that it is actually creamy rice. Because in Malay lemak can means fatty or creamy. Since nasi lemak uses santan, the lemak is referring to the creaminess of the santan 😬 If you hear ppl referring to a soup/kuah as berlemak it usually signifies the kuah to be creamy (usually due to santan, milk or cheese).

[@bubucici9919]

You shoukd try nasi lemak kedah. Yellow rice

[@JetLagWarriors]

will do when we go back to Kedah

[@annehannapink1691]

I think the yellow nasi lemak can be found in KL under the name of nasi lemak Royale.. one restaurant is in ampang and another is in jalan gombak.. correct me please if i got it wrong... 😁

[@blackknightshark7732]

The original sambal for nasi lemak must contain a lil bit belacan as the ingredient to give a good taste.

[@mohdazuwan2498]

Nope...u wrong..old school nasik lemak dont use any belacan..

[@Ruriko.Y]

@@mohdazuwan2498 exactly. old school sambal is very simple. no garlic & belacan.

[@matmotor7572]

Try also nasi lemak Ujang at Greenwood food court, Kuala Lumpur.... not far from Batu Caves

[@jonmath4182]

Belacan is shrimp based not anchovies, but they are those tiny shrimps the size of finger nails. In semenanjung those tiny pink/red shrimps are called udang geragau, in sarawak I believe they're called bubok. However, traditional nasi lemak sambal does not use belacan. Sambal belacan is for ulam (traditional malay salad) and grilled fish. Some sambal nasi lemak use anchovies, like you can actually see whole anchovies in it.

[@user-np3qw1ze3b]

Popular for local food especially the Nasi Lemak. This place is popular for local and foreigner as well. Weekend is pack with people.

[@newmazz]

Sambal Tumis guys. Nasi lemak sambal is Sambal Tumis. Btw femented anchovies is budu (buduk), a special dip sauce from Kelantan, Terengganu & Southern Thailand. I had something similar in Laos. Fermented shrimp paste is Belacan. There’s one more special dip… the Cincalok, made from Udang Geragau (dried krill).

[@faisalamir1928]

You can always enjoy nasi lemak with some other gravy, like rendang or kari gravy. It's definitely better than just plain rice and fried chicken. Give it a go Steve!

[@aliabu8676]

For first timer, better try nasi lemak with chicken sambal, beef sambal or egg sambal. Once you familiar, then can try other seafood sambal which contain belacan.

[@tclilamn1161]

Jetlag and wife : If you want to taste tasty nasi lemak, come down Penang and I will serve you home made Nasi Lemak for free...I live on the mainland of Penang, Seberang Perai. We cook nasi lemak the traditional way!

[@audreyDsouza]

nasi lemak village park is one of my favorite foods.Omg🤤..seeing you eating makes me hungry but I'm far away from malaysia😔

[@iskandartaib]

Oh good god. That's just down the road from where I live. I eat around there every day (though not at Village Park). From what I've been told, Village Park is owned by Chinese Muslims. On the other side of the block is a really good genuine Japanese ramen shop (Seirock-ya, which is halal) and a Thai Muslim Tom Yum restaurant (Vicchuda). I used to eat Nasi Lemak for breakfast (it was convenient to buy it by the side of the road when I had to teach 8am classes), but it's got a REALLY HIGH glycemic index and I found my blood sugar would shoot up right after breakfast. If I eat it at all it's later in the day. Nasi lemak pizza - hmmm.... I'll check Domino's menu (there's one at the bottom of the square).

belacan is a hardened block of shrimp paste, made from tiny shrimp mixed with salt and fermented.

[@JetLagWarriors]

Where is the best nasi lemak you have ever had?🤔🇲🇾

[@SongHwaRin]

Too many... Very Hard to give the answer

[@Xeras10]

To be honest the best nasi lemak i had was at my uni study in Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) sell by the alumni of the Uni...he go to door by door at the hostel...oh how much i miss it 10 years passed really fast 😭😭😭

[@thekaj70]

Wanjo

[@zaharizak]

I don't know.. That's a tough question. Just when you think A is good, B seems to be better and then C seems to be the best. Then when you go back to A.. somehow it can make you forget B & C. How can it not be? The whole country is into nasi lemak.

[@khami011]

If any chance you'll be coming to Kuantan, you need to try Nasi Lemak Zaman

[@flyingfox3766]

Steve have you tried nasi lemak wanjo in kampung baru? It has a milder sambal with a sweetish taste and I dont think it has any fishy/seafood taste (ie no depth lol)… still decent nasi lemak though

[@madieinduk196]

welcome to sabah guys,,

I think ivana should just say theres no belacan on everything. Becoz steve has a mindset of not liking seafood smell n taste. He will not know 🤣🤣

Wow nasi lemak aiscream

[@khairulidris4590]

Honestly.. Any forms of nasi lemak is truly a Malaysian Dish/Gourmet.

[@followthedirtycoachbysmac5458]

Belacan is actually shrimp or krill paste. Fermentation is part of the process hence thr strong enhanced flavor. Sambal for nasi lemak may ot may not have this ingredient. Personally my family has prawn allergies, so we use anchovies instead of belacan to get that umami flavor.

[@BeyfighterFaris]

Stay humble, stay hungry. Love u guys

[@bungaialoevera]

I loveeee anchovies. Anchovies is a must for my nasi lemak

[@chekenolchannel9692]

No, belacan is not anchovies, nope. Belacan is permented small shrimp call 'udang geragau' in Malay.

[@qurratuain5992]

Belacan is fermented shrimp paste . en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrimp_paste?wprov=sfla1

[@skeyz]

Belacan is not "fermented" small shrimps as many ppl hv claimed. Fermented shrimps are called "cincaluk". Belancan is made of small shrimps (krills) which are laid out under the sun for days to dry, until reaching 5% moisture. In between, they will be pounded into dough like texture. Salt is added to give the belacan its salty flavour. This process is repeated a few times until you get the texture that you want and very crucial to get good quality (smell & taste) belacan. Fermentation is another food process. It is an anaerobic process in which microorganisms like yeast and bacteria break down food components. This does not apply to belacan. I know because my mum used to make her own belacan.

[@qurratuain5992]

@@skeyz True. I stand corrected.

[@littlenewthings2662]

What an amazing experience of savory vs dessert nasi lemak! And speaking of nasi Lemak burger, there was once a limited edition at Burger Labs. I have tried it before pre-covid (around 2018) and it was a HUGE hit and it is very nice, though the coconut side was a lot lesser but definitely the chicken and sambal was spot on. I think Ken (Abroad) did a take on burger roti canai before.

[@amrimohd6654]

I believe both McD and Burger King have their version of limited edition of Nasi Lemak burgers as well. The McD one was so spicy and I missed out on Burger King.

Oh another thing, nasi lemak translated is not fatty rice. Lemak here refers to the creamy taste from the coconut milk, so it's creamy rice instead
