The Kuala Lumpur they DON'T show you 🇲🇾 Locals SURPRISED US!

Today we thought we were heading out for an ordinary day out in Kuala Lumpur but it turned into one of our best days yet! Interacting with the locals really surprised us - they instantly welcomed us, laughed and ate with us which made us fall in love with Malaysia even more! This is a side we have never seen or what they don't show you! We were surprised and genuinely grateful for the people we met along the way!

In Malaysia and other South East Asian countries, it is always a good technique to scoop your watery & juicy food using a spoon instead of a fork.

Welcome to Malaysia. Have a wonderful holidays here. Malaysia is truly Asia!

[@sultrys2291]

Tips in Malaysia (food wise): 1. Gravy is very important in any gravy-laden dish (roti, rice, noodles etc). Thus using the spoon (vs fork) is more appropriate, so you can scoop the gravy/soup as well. Thus, when we judge any soupy dishes (ie laksa, curry mee, lontong etc), we judge the soup/gravy/curry more importantly than the noodles (which we just buy from any sundry shop). This is totally different from far-east (China, Japan, Korea) or Italian pasta, where they judge the noodle (al dente etc) more importantly than the sauce . So, if someone say something is good, but we see the soup/curry/gravy are still a lot in the bowl, we would think that they are just being polite. 2. In Malaysia, we call Chilli and Tomato Ketchup as Chilli or Tomato sos (sauce). The Soy Sauce, we call it "Kicap" (pronounced similar to ketchup : pr: kee-chup). So, if you ask for Ketchup (you actually want tomato/chilli), they will give you "kicap" (soy sauce).

There's also a international competition for teh tarik, how long the tea can be pulled,how magnificent the person can dance with the tea while being pulled,and how much bubble they got will affect their marks to determine the winner, but it the covid outbreak stop the competition so many people are waiting when it will come back😅

@@ShevandDev you should try bird nest roti canai(roti canai sarang burung), it's roti canai but cooked with a big hole in the middle and they put some beef/chicken curry and egg in the middle if not mistaken,it was one of the popular one, but not all roti canai stall offer them,so need to ask locals or do some research for that

there are 3 reasons why the pulled tea, #1 is to mix the black tea with milk easily without stir, #2 to cool down the tea because they use only hot boiled water, #3 to create bubble/foam 😁

[@amirulazharomar7483]

1. Malaysians, when they go overseas, will start to complain: i. The food is not fresh. ii. The food is expensive. iii. People don't smile. iv. And they walk too fast. 2. And unlike the Japanese, the Koreans or the Germans, we Malaysians live to eat. 3. Any food becomes malaysianized, when it becomes affordable. E.g. the indian briani, the thai tom yam and even the japanese sushi now prepared by street vendors. 4. It is food paradise here because of variety and the cheap price. But the expensive, fancy food is available in the more upmarket restaurants. But we malaysians will find a way to make those food affordable.

[@Cik_Siput.Luar_Biasa]

Malaysian English always have 'lah' is appended to the end of the word and is not a separate word by itself. In Malay, 'lah' is used to change a verb into a command or to soften its tone, particularly when usage of the verb may seem impolite. For example, "to drink" is "minum", but "Here, drink!" is "minumlah".

What u ate has a name …. Roti Canai Banjir Telur Goyang ….. banjir means flood ( the roti was flooded with curry / gravy) …. Telur is egg … Goyang means wobbly or shaky …. Wobbly eggs due to the half boiled eggs which are wobbly in nature …… next time if you want roti canai flooded with curry …. Ask for Roti Canai Banjir

[@odearcega1180]

Hi Shev and Dev. Nice to see you again.

[@ShevandDev]

Hi Ode! Nice to see you too 😍

[@joseinternazionale]

The basic when comes to Roti Canai or Pratha (in Indian) is to start or hv it plain without any egg topping or sardine, milo, milk or banana stuffed inside it. Once u started to know and understand the plain ripe taste of the plain Roti Canai only then u up the antique or level of the tasting arts by mixing or stuffing it with other items like the boiled eggs u had in the video. Majority locals will go for only the plain Roti. As for the curry, dhal (lentils) and Sambal (chili paste); they are like a compulsory set of course that comes together with any Roti usually in separate small bowl or plate unless u asked them to be put onto the Roti itself which i may say, one that u had which was mixed all together is probably bcoz it is much easier to serve and much lesser to work with. The next time if u want to u can always ask for the curry separately. Juz fyi Roti Canai has become the daily staple and round the clock item not juz bfast for Malaysians although it is quite hard to find it at certain hours of the day especially during lunch time. Fyi Roti Canai from what i gathered is one of the all time favourite meal for non Malaysians especially the Westerners.

[@MrGman2804]

That guy making the tea has it spot on. If I did that, I would miss and tip it all on the floor! Also, I have no idea how you two are always eating but remain slim. I have to be sooo careful. There is no way I could eat a huge Roti curry etc and not expand on the spot. It's not fair.... 😂 All the best. Adrian.

Fascinating Malaysia is a diverse community in South East Asia.

[@radzak1441]

The drink that you drink is called teh Tarik, the reason of why it was pulled are to make it less hot,and by pulling it, it increase the tea aroma and make it more richness in taste,the dishes you eat is roti canai, I think the gravy is combination of dhal gravy and curry gravy, you can also order roti telur which is instead of half boil egg they serve you ,the egg itself is cooked together with the roti canai,which will make it more fluffier.
