NASI LEMAK: Malaysia's Famous Street Food 🇲🇾 Famous Nasi Lemak vs Street Stall Nasi Lemak

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA - This will be my first time trying Nasi Lemak in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia. Nasi Lemak is an incredibly famous and traditional Malaysian food. Malaysian street food doesn't get better than this. I eat Nasi Lemak to compare how good Nasi Lemak really is. First I eat at Nasi Lemak Wanjo in the Kampung Baru district of Kuala Lumpur. This place is one of the best restaurants in Kuala Lumpur for Nasi Lemak but is it really home to the best Nasi Lemak in Kuala Lumpur? I also try another incredibly famous Malaysian food called Beef Rendang. After that I walk around the corner and find a smaller family restaurant offering Nasi Lemak on the street side. Nasi Lemak Kak Chuk might be my favourite of the two, but you will need to watch the video to find out. Watch a foreigner review Nasi Lemak.

[@a_min60]

foreigners always make the same mistake of asking for too many add-on, then complaining of so big portion?

[@shashah5438]

Wanjo is for the tourists, kak Chuk's the real deal where the locals go to!

[@hungrytoexplore]

you know it! I preferred kak chuk

[@AndrewTang-rx1py]

Almost every KZbinr heads to Wanjo for their first try of nasi lemak. As a local, Wanjo is so overrated for me. There's way better nasi lemak elsewhere.

[@hungrytoexplore]

agreed, I filmed there because I wanted to compare, but the second one was the winner.

[@zulkefleahmad1648]

Wanjo's is good, not overrated but amongst the top and famous.

[@nimay13]

Wanjo overrated? Nah, for me Village Park IS overrated.

[@hellomartywoods]

Locals tend to forget foreigners usually not used to spicy nasi lemak, Wanjo’s offers the sweeter and less spicy version for them to experience nasi lemak. I don’t like spicy sambal. I agree Village Park is overrated, and I agree there’s better nasi lemak too. But Wanjo is not bad actually and most locals actually just didn’t like the sweet sambal. Their dishes actually pretty decent.

[@burgerkill6705]

I never tried village park or wanjo nasi lemak.. I always get nasi lemak from small street stall.. Even that already satisfy me very much, I wonder how wonderful the taste would be at wanjo or village park..

[@radzlanahmad]

Wanjo is overrated BUT it’s a fairly good benchmark for first timers to try Nasik lemak. But once u start living in Malaysia and you try various nasi lemak stalls everywhere in the country you’d understand why we can eat nasi lemak everyday. There is so much variety in styles of cooking rice, styles of dishes served with it and of course there are sambal that mean business, no sweetness and more kick

[@hungrytoexplore]

you are right... that was exactly my aim. To benchmark it against one deemed famous before trying the one I found which looked interesting. For me, the second nasi lemak restaurant was much better

[@ereenhadi]

Homecooked nasi lemak is always the best. Nasi lemak used to be so simple with only an egg, cucumber, fried anchovies, fried ground nut and sambal, and only eaten for breakfast. Time has changed that now it is eaten at anytime of the day with loads of side dishes. For the rice, it is fragrant with pandan leaves and fenugreek seeds and cooked with a little oil to make sure it is cooked nicely and not lumpy. Some put lemongrass too. And sometimes the rice is steamed. Anyway, I hope you will find one that’s packed nicely in banana leave. It’s really good.

[@hungrytoexplore]

I might need to make it myself haha. The second restaurant was really nice

[@moyyewhon6724]

Do not make your hand lower or above your mouth then simpl put that food into your mouth. Remember that "ONLY YOUR HAND THAT MOVING FORWARD OR BACKWARD!!! Not your head nor your mouth.

Wanjo is the best for tourist. The food is really good and not spicy but not the best, it is above average. Always bring your visiting friends to Wanjo, there are a few reasons, firstly it is in a shop not by the street. The cleaning team in Wanjo is top notch and impressive. The shop setting looks clean and organised. For beginners the huge variety and taste is "awesome"(tourist taste bud), as I said good for tourist. This will be my first stop for my foreign visiting friends. Tourist will be impressed.

You’re not wrong about the sweet sambal.. I myself can’t handle sweet flavours in savoury dishes especially when it comes to sambal.. for your information most of the restaurants that serves Nasi Lemak dishes their sambal is not authentic anymore because they try to make it less spicy and can be accepted by foreigners taste buds.. and it’s actually quite disappointing for me.. I’m growin up in Serdang area when I was little which is my breakfast is only nasi lemak from the various stall.. it kinda brought some flashback into my mind which back then the sambal isn’t as sweet as it is now.. I might say sometimes not sweet at all it’s truly spicy but I love the taste.. and one more thing stall Nasi Lemak in my opinion is better than in a restaurant especially wanjo.. for me Wanjo Nasi Lemak is not that good compare to Authentic Nasi Lemak.. the sambal should be spicy and rich.. not sweet and watery.. I hope in your journey here.. you’ll find the best Nasi Lemak here and hopefully you got a chance to try the authentic Nasi Lemak here.. have a beautiful day my friend

As a Malaysian, I find most of the dishes served here are too sweet. Especially the sambal. I don’t cook with any sugar. It’s a challenge to find a good sambal that’s not sweet. It’s a recent thing and I can’t understand why. Maybe people’s tastebuds have adapted to the sweetness. I find upscale restaurants serve dishes that are not as sweet. Anyway, have a great time eating in Malaysia. 😄 We have a saying here. Jalan- jalan cari makan. Going out looking for food. (Rough transition)

@hungrytoexplore it was a scammer, I report the gp already. The gp name Nookcha Production E126

[@widadomar1252]

I have screenshot the gp name, unfortunately I did not screenshot the part where they use ur video, I blocked the gp. It was via whatapp btw. So be careful.
