Oh you went to Kampung Baru 🌟 You went to right place to find Malay(Melayu) foods like Nasi Lemak, Kampung Baru is the hotspot for Malay in KL. It will become more alive during evening n night tho.

[@Travel_Topz]

I'm travelling to Malaysia at the end of next month and this has made me super excited...Nasi Lemak I'm coming for you!

[@nyvlac32]

Let me know if you need a local guide around for amazing food! No charges, just a passion to bring people around. :)

I tried Nasi Lemak Wanjo last month and it was not the way I’d imagined after watching many tourists went there because the sambal was too liquidised (cair) and the lauk ( accompanying dishes) just so so. Almost devoid the taste of the actual nasi lemak. Since Wanjo has somehow managed to be famous…I urge the owner to relook into their nasi lemak…the rice itself no taste of Santan, the sambal should thicker, well balanced of sour, spicy, sweet and salt. The day I went there was no fried peanuts. From this video…there are still no peanuts. Peanuts a must for a traditional Nasi Lemak! Come on guys…you are our Nasi Lemak ambassador to tourists…please do justice to the dish.

[@margaretekalaiabdullah8745]

The best Nasi lemak is at Village Park at Uptown Damansara. The place is always pack. The rice is much better than Wanjo strong taste of coconut milk n the sambal is not too sweet.

[@slebetman]

It depends on what you compare it to. As a KL born native I kind of like Wanjo if that's the type of nasi lemak I'm looking for. Wanjo is comparible to Nasi Lemak Antarabangsa which is around the same place. It's the type of nasi lemak that you go for the lauk (side dishes) instead of the nasi. Growing up in the 80s the two big ones are nasi lemak Tanglin at Bukit Aman and Nasi Lemak Antarabangsa at Kampung Baru. Wanjo mainly compete with Nasi Lemak Antarabangsa. Not the old-school, plain and simple nasi lemak bungkus. So they don't focus on the rice and sambal but the lauk.

[@KuzaChannel]

@@slebetman It sells Nasi Lemak and absolutely that they are selling…not the lauk per ser so it is only fair if they make an effort to effing cook a proper Nasi Lemak that at least has a rich flavour of Pandan and Coconut milk. Devoid of at least these two main ingredients then they have got to take down the "offering" of Nasi Lemak. Instead replace them with Nasi Campur.

Texas Fried Chicken in America is called Church's Texas Chicken; not sure if that rings a bell, but when they came to Malaysia they removed Church from the name given that it is a Muslim country. Also the Merdeka skyscraper is the second tallest building in the world after the Burj Khalifa hence why it looks so massive haha. Without the Spire i.e. to the roof only, it ranks fourth.

Texas Chicken is called Church's in the US. They rebranded it here by removing "Church's" from "Church's Texas Chicken" probably to avoid any controversy and to have a wider appeal.

[@AdnanNan-ef1so]

❤ malaysia

[@siewmoihong1304]

Texas chicken is actually Church's Chicken in USA. But the literal meaning of church might a bit sensitive to the muslim customer (60% population). Hence they renaming to Texas Chicken in Malaysia.

[@LanzFranchess]

the main part of Nasi Lemah is the rice, then its sambal... traditionally served in a banana leaf with rice, sambal, boiled egg, anchovies, cucumber and peanuts. it's just that modern times have been improvised by adding various types of side dishes such as chicken, meat, fried fish / rendang / masak merah etc... various types of vegetables, more.

"Don't go to wanjo, don't go to wanjo, don't go to wanjo" ... F*ck, you went to wanjo. Wanjo is very very overrated, they used to be the shit but after all those exposure, well you know... Just around the corner from Wanjo, is a humble stall called Nasi Lemak Kak Chuk, now kak chuk as the owner is called, she serves delicious, excellent nasi lemak! Next time you're here in Malaysia, i hope you get the privilege to dine at Kak Chuk's humble stall. The little gems to be found around KL.

[@nikkol3077]

The best nasi lemak is in damansara. Called Village park. Once u had this nasi lemak others will be amateurs to u

[@Mudskipper9876]

Looks like you had a good day.

[@decTac]

Nice video 👍 Teh halia or ginger tea is a good choice.. You should try Nasi Kerabu and Nasi Kandar.. those are Malaysian favourite and signature dishes,. Try chendol and laksa and roti chanai too..

Hi Zane，謝謝你的Vlog分享旅遊經驗，無意間發現你的影片覺得非常喜歡，如果條件允許的話，想推薦你更新錄影和收音設備，因為目前使用的攝影器材算是滿清晰的，可是一旦鏡頭移動會有模糊及延遲的問題(大部分是發生在夜晚/昏暗場景下拍攝)，造成觀看者的暈眩，再者目前的收音，對比你的說話聲，環境音有時候會有點蓋過去，如果能配戴小麥克風(夾在衣服上)，相信影片的質感能大大提升。無論如何，謝謝你的分享，請持續的創作更多內容，會繼續支持你的❤

If you're still in Malaysia, you gotta try the Village Park Nasi Lemak in PJ. Prime Ministers go eat there. Probably a 30 min Grab ride from KL

Nasi Lemak, sedap! yup, nasi lemak sambal (sauce) is very spicy. I haven't been to Kpg Baru, KL. I have been to Petaling Street Market, looks interesting but the main alley walk is too small for big crowd. Cool area for happy hours in Bukit Bintang, KL

[@mo_yams]

The fried mashed potato is in essence a croquet = minced meat x potatoes. It's called a Bergedil in Malaysia or Perkedel in Indonesia.

[@abdmanafali2975]

U should try a basic Nasi Lemak first... a basic Nasi Lemak in its original form usually consist of fried anchovies, fried peanuts, boiled chicken egg, slices of cucumber, rice cooked in coconut milk and the sambal (gravy).... other than these basic components - is Nasi Lemak with extras....

Fried mashed potato: Bergedel, yummy!

[@izaddinsyahyusof7734]

I love my nasi lemak as any Malaysians would, but personally my heart dies a little everytime I see tourists/traveller's vlogging about their search for the best nasi lemak.. And all of them ends up at this overrated place. Unpopular (and personal) opinion but the essence of nasi lemak is just totally missing at this place (the rice and the sambal are truly bland).. what it is, though, is a place for a glorified nasi campur with all the many side dishes, I will give them that. I said what I said, and I sincerely hope you will find a much much better nasi lemak during your visit here - just a simple but tasty nasi lemak. This, unfortunately, was not it.

[@Mark_Dearlove]

any suggestions? I am heading over to Malaysia soon!

[@izaddinsyahyusof7734]

⁠personally I would go for Nasi Lemak Village Park, Nasi Lemak Burung Hantu, Nasi Lemak Tanglin, Nasi lemak Antarabangsa or even from any small roadside stalls like the ones suggested by other viewers here (like Nasi Lemak Kak Chuk). Their primary focus would be the rice itself and the sambal, as it should be - instead of the side dishes IMO. If you would like to explore the array of side dishes, you're better off looking for a nasi campur (mixed rice) which can be found almost everywhere during lunch hour.

[@stuartfit]

In Malaysia, you'll need to mix your drinks thoroughly in order to optimize taste and flavors. The ginger tea you drank should have been mixed as the bottom part is actually condensed milk and not ginger, the ginger you tasted was actually "liquid-fied" and mixed with the tea.

[@nickloong]

You look so at home it gives an impression you're based here in Kuala Lumpur. 😅😂😂

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Yes there are other gourmet nasi lemak places example village park

[@twkl2024]

You stayed at Robertson Suites right?......Judging from your video's footages, it must have required you to do a lot of walkings!.......from your accomodation to Petaling Street to Jalan Alor to pubs street.....haha....... [I live nearby, at the back of Swiss Garden Hotel...]

[@charliewee4360]

Tried eating the nasi lemak mixed the sambal till the rice is red

[@kyleanuar9090]

Hot Wheels are made here, shop at my place selling for two dollars each and I don't question where they get them from

[@augustinechau]

It's Churchs Texas Chicken..We drop the Churchs and just go with Texas Chicken

[@iantravels2406]

You should visit the church near your air bnb and holy rosary church near little india - both are very beautiful for Kl standards.

[@ShiroiKarasu634]

it started to rain in Germany too right at the same time i heard in on your video. i was confused if it is the video or outside my Window😂 edit : and now you talked about germany haha inception

[@AhmadZakiVision]

As usual the reaction from foreign tourists... 😅 Try eating Nasi Lemak Pandan ( green color rice ) if you haven't tried it yet 😁

[@charliewee4360]

The mashed fried potato is bergedil

[@tinglestingles]

Gravy Baby for English breakfast too.

[@amirulelmi7155]

Even im malaysian its hard to find to taste the autenthic nasi lemak if i came to the restaurant. Even a famous restaurant. Because many of them using a instant coconut milk, not using original coconut milk when cook the rice.

[@wanderfulstops8488]

[@KayH6]

U wont find authentic nasi lemak in kl sorry..home cooked nasi lemak will be d sambal cooked together wt anchovies..sellers will separate d sambal and fry d anchovies so tht they can keep d sambal fresh longer...best nasi lemak for me is village park in pj if not random places outside of kl where they still make home style anchovies sambal

[@najibyusoffchannel1417]

This is definitely a matter of choice...My late grandmother from my dad's side always fry the anchovies separately while my late grandmother from my mom's side always mix the anchovies with sambal😅😅😅😅

[@flahmadzaki2172]

Village park nasi lemak cooked by Myanmar nationals sucks big time.

[@KayH6]

@@flahmadzaki2172 wanjo is indon so whts d difference??

[@KayH6]

@@najibyusoffchannel1417 thts why i explained at length for sellers almost evryone will separate it not bcoz of choice but only reason to preserve the sambal as long as possible..if u dont know most sellers will cook d sambal once every 3 or 2 days..not daily...if they mix anchovies they wont be able to keep d sambal that long as anchovies will produce fishy liquid eventually making it spoilt

[@fauzanriez9472]

The only authentic nasi lemak is the one wrapped in banana leaf while its hot. The aroma is simply different.

[@Daniel-fi9nb]

go to village park in PJ if you want nasi lemak with fried chicken made hot & fresh

[@norzilahaziz6695]

I like nasi dagang more. you should try..believe me..hahaha

[@najibyusoffchannel1417]

Hi Zane...love ur video so much...been watching them for a while👍👍 love that you enjoy our Nasi Lemak ❤❤. FYI a lot of Malaysians love it when it rains as rain provides refuge from the unbearable Tropical heat..Wanjo is a good introductory Nasi Lemak option for people who wanna try it for the first time..However, you should also try Nasi Lemak from the road side sellers that offer more scrumptious dishes to be paired with the coconut rice..YUM...anyway...if you see comments from our Indonesian brothers just disregard them and enjoy Malaysia your own way ok!...Indonesia is a beautiful country ..but sometimes when their netizens comment on videos showcasing Malaysia, they can be irritating and infuriating too😂😂😂

[@rashadahahmad9179]

You dont wolf down chicken by itself bcos we Malaysians break the chicken wth our fork, get a pinch of sambal, a small piece of fried eggs put them all combined on yr spoon then only eat it..!!!…. I saw wth amazement foreigners trying Malay food like.. taking a spoonfull of sambal n straight into the mouth whereas it should be mixed wth rice be4 gulping it…!!! Some I saw taking the salted fish n eating it as if its an entre … man..!! The salted fish is meant as its name.. to make the rice n condiments salty n tastety.. am sure of blood pressure spike for anyone eating salted fish by itself!!!😁😁😂

[@indianfood4281]

one of the most dissapointing Nasi Lemak ever! Just went there last week
