- Foreigners try Malaysian Food in Kota Bharu, Kelantan, Malaysia! Including ayam percik (bbq chicken with gravy), laksam (fish based soup noodles - similar to laksa), nasi kerabu (blue rice with fresh ulam or vegetables), and sup daging (beef soup)!
We started at Siti Khadijah Market to try laksam for breakfast. Unfortunately Steve wasn't too into the fish base, so he explored and found some sup daging. We really love trying new Malaysian foods and making a Malaysian food vlog!
We were planning to g to Yati Ayam Percik restaurant to continue our Malaysian Food tour in Kelantan. But we met with the Tourism Board of Malaysia, and one of their guide (Semutar Guide) brought us to Singgora Guesthouse! This kampung style guesthouse is extremely picturesque! Check out our drone shots in Kelantan. We tried ayam percik, smoky kampung beef, ikan celup tepung, pickled garlic, nasi kerabu, budu and a lot more! Very delicious, and homecooked Malaysian food! Definitely a must-eat.
The owner even hooked up Steve with a semutar! A tourist feeling more like a local everyday!

JetLagWarriors is a Canadian couple - Steve and Ivana. After travelling here and there for a few years, mostly during Canadian winter, we fully caught the travel bug and decided to travel INDEFINITELY! Subscribe to keep up with our journey. We will be budget travelling- hostels and air BnB's and street food and the whole bit. Thanks!
You'd be surprise to know that a lot of Malaysians didn't have the experiences you've had especially me. You're promoting our country back to us locals. Good show
You all prolly dont give a shit but does anybody know of a tool to get back into an instagram account..?
I somehow forgot the login password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me.
@Sylas Saint instablaster =)
@Callan Ezequiel i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm trying it out atm.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Callan Ezequiel It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thanks so much, you saved my account :D
@Sylas Saint You are welcome =)
its funny everybody speaking malay with ivana.. maybe because she does look like local chinese.
Haha yes. Ivana is actually Chinese Indonesia so she understand a bit.
JetLag Warriors Can you make a video how do you guys met each other and background?I'm pretty shock knowing Ivana a chinese Indonesia and she might pretty fair in bahasa as the Indonesian and Malaysia vocabulary almost the same.
@@syafiqsahap2012 dah jawab dalam Q&A diorang. Check dalam channel diorang
Hi Steve /Ivana. The blue flower made to color rice in nasi Kerabu has a name. It was mentioned in Gordon Ramsey's (the international chef) many trips to Malaysia. If you not seen it, better see it for yourself. The name of the flower is mentioned in the middle of the video. If you have not seen it, see for yourself. Kinda funny really. czcams.com/video/1UjzXJcxr8k/video.html
@@JetLagWarriors owh. She is chinese indonesia. I thought chinese malaysia. 😆😆
Thanks Steve and Ivana..
You guys might one of the best contributors to help tourism industry during and after this pandemic..
Creating hype for tourist to travel In Malaysia...
Thank you! Yes, the tourism industry in Malaysia (and everywhere) is suffering due to covid. We sure hope our videos will help promote Malaysia, both domestic and maybe later, international tourists.
Well done@@JetLagWarriors Hope to see you soon in Taman Negara
Some kuih to try while you in Kelantan
1. Lompat tikam
2. Cek mek
3. Akok
4. Jala mas
5. Tahi itik
6. Tepung bungkus
7. Pulut pagi kelantan
8. Tepung boko ubi kayu
9. Kuih apam bakar Kelantan
10. Kuih topi
11. Kuih pulut sekaya kelantan
12. Buah gomok

I suggest you guys to find it at the Pasar Siti Khadijah at the kuih section its like one stop centre lots of option kuih there. Goodluck 😁😁👍👍
thanks! Note taken
@@JetLagWarriors you're welcome, kuih pulut sekaya is one of my favorite. Hope you guys can find it 😋😋😋
And the name of those kuehs when translated to english can be quite hilarious for example lompat tikam ..lompat = jump, tikam = stab.
Kuih topi was my favorite and I always eating the middle part and left the outer part hahaha from my childhood I eat it and I still can find it when I'm back to my village and it was a sweet memory when my late grandma bought it when im going there bcs she knew that was my fav and now I miss it so much
I bet Steve and Ivana will always had a great memories and stories to tell about Malaysia in the future.
You're awesome guys. I enjoy travelling around the world with you guys just via CZcams. 😊
Thank you so much. Keep travelling with us!😊
They are not visiting Malaysia, they basically 'live' in Malaysia.
2020 great to explore Malaysia 👍
”
both Kelantan & Terengganu have their own unique dialect, they do understand formal Malay.
in fact, people from both state can understand each other regardless of the dialect.
i think it's 70-80% understandable.
and yeah, their foods are practically a little bit sweeter than in Terengganu.
ah, "there you have it guys"
Yeah, each state in Malaysia has its own dialect which is very cool! There you have it
@Bouya i'm just being considerate though i know it.
we need to stay friendly, spread the positive vibe.
Both Steve and Ivana are blessed and lucky to get the extra special Malaysian Hospitality. From the warmth invitation from Abg Ajeeb, durian fiesta @ the dusun, free printed t-shirt and to the invitation by the Tourism, not many bloggers have that memorable opportunities. That shows how much we love you and you are most welcome here. Please enjoy your stay and stay safe. Love you ❤️
We feel the love!! Thank you so much Malaysia, and the people of Malaysia. Thank YOU for following our journey! We feel very lucky indeed.
Yesss laksam is so good! Love the thick rolled up rice noodles and all the ulam with it too
ivana loves it!!
Kelantan is very famous for its batik clothes, decorative and colourful flying kite, silverwares, bronze wares, gold wares, wood carvings, iron works, etc. Totally a magnificent place of you want to see Malay heritage.
Truly a Malaysian experience in Kelantan!
@@JetLagWarriors go watch traditional performances such as Mak yong, dikir barat, menora, wayang kulit (shadow puppets) in Kelantan. You cannot see these performances anywhere else in Malaysia because they are originally and only in Kelantan.
Love ayam percik too - the sauce is incredible!
so amazing!! Still need to go to Yati
Budu is good for the brain..
@@faridamohdali7178 you're right. I was told not to see the process of making budu!
What you said is true.
For laksam, u can add a little bit of sambal. It will make it taste better and lowering or even eliminate the fishy taste
Ahhh we miss nasi kerabu!
oh it is ivana’s fave rice dish!!
All vlogs in Malaysia turns in to a food blog
What i love about you steve, when you react to something that you never eat before. It all on your face.
hehehe so sorry. Sometimes I feel bad for my face expressions when I try something I don’t like😂
No worry. That made you special.
@@dapobujang494 True.
Steve is honest.
@@JetLagWarriors I really don't mind your face. Just be honest
The sound of adzhan, cricket, frog at the background..... just soooooooooo serene, loving it and missing it so much 😭😭
very peaceful indeed
Its OK Steve, better to be honest rather than just faking it to appeal to your viewerbase. We Malaysian dont like when people badmouth us or our culture/food/etc and I think you know that already (slander is a big no-no here in Malaysia) but being honest has its merit and as long as you're not being rude, we'll get along just fine.
Thanks! I’m sure the food is good. Ivana loves it! I just don’t like fishy taste/smell.
Steve looks great with semutar!
and what a beautiful place, my first time knowing that place exist eventhough I visited Kelantan every year.
thanks!
Make sure you visit Singgora next time you come to Kelantan!
In Malaysia, if the laksa broth is not thick, then no Malaysian will buy it. Laksa broth in Malaysia comes in few variances, according to the places it is served. Laksa broth in the north doesn't have curry paste in it and it is more like soup. Laksa broth in Johor is creamy and added with curry paste. Laksa broth on the east coast states is creamy and doesn't have curry powder. That's why the colour is white or murky. Laksa in Sarawak has a very distinct feature and 🍤 taste. Laksa and laksam are actually noodles made from rice flour.
We want to try all types of laksa from all states!
@@JetLagWarriors i think there got a sarawak dish place in KL, you can try laksa sarawak there. see if i can find the name, i think i came across one before
i think it was Charlie's Cafe in Taman Desa. but you can also ask around and in the video so people can comment their recommendation. KL people will surely know more about it, finding good places to eat is kind of a big thing for malaysians. hell, anything food is a big deal for us.
Don’t forget about laksa from Southern Thailand. They also have their own version of laksa
If you wonder why ayam kampung (village/rural chicken) has tougher meat, it is because rural chicken roaming around at free will. Unlike poultry chicken they are more like institutionalised chicken. Living and growing all their life in specialized compound, sometimes never see the outside world. So poultry chicken is not moving around so much. Just eat, sleep and keep growing indoor. Rural chickens are more adventurous, facing and fighting back predators ( so true, I was lucky to saw one event years back. A cock fending off a snake to protect the flock. And winning!) And they are smarter. So their muscles are firm and solid. That is why rural chicken has tougher meat. More healthy to eat.
As for frog fruit, different state or ethnic has different name for it. As for Selangor based, primarily Javanese ethnic origins, my folks call them Nam-Nam fruit. Loved by the kids at my village.
whoah! Sounds like the Ultraman of chicken!
Nice butterfly pea flower drink time lapse!
thanks! It was like a science experiment
Add with slice lemon more better....love it
15:53 We calls it Buah Nam-nam. Maybe in the East Coast it's called Buah Katak Puru, hence frog fruit. Scientific name is Cynometra cauliflora. I love the sour taste when it's fully ripe and a bit soft. It's not easily found like durian or rambutan and some say it has medicinal value...
Whoah we feel so lucky now to have had the chance to try it!
@@JetLagWarriors hahahha some of my friend don't know what that fruit either hahhaa you so lucky can found that hahahha and I'm enjoyed watching your video in my hometown...thank a lot and make sure to eat alot food there cuz it's only have at kelantan hahaha taste our food in other country will taste different from our kelantan
@@JetLagWarriors Because of that rare fruit, I plant it for myself and for the next generation 😁
Dont skip ads guys.. lets support Steve & Ivana 🌸
🙏you are the best!
if you want to recreate the recipe,
1. blend sardine in brine (2 tins)
2. cut shallots (1 cup)
3. coconut milk
4. tamarind
blend all..
blended fish gives very strong fish taste.
buah katak puru (frog fruit) is buah nam-nam. english version is Cynometra_cauliflora
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cynometra_cauliflora
Steve's taste buds still in training.......hehehe!!
Roaming around local markets & food centre is always the best way to fill the local vibes...... Stay safe & happy travels...
Yes, we loved the market!! It was kinda overwhelming with the hectic environment but it was also exciting!
D food at d Singgora Guesthouse looks absolutely amazing. D nasi kerabu, ayam percik n daging salai, wow, delicious.
Kampung boy Steve..👍🏻👍🏻
😂😂yeah!👍
Proud of u guys especially Ivana..she really can embrace the local dishes.
😂😂😂It’s the Asian blood in her. She got Asian tongue.
There you have it Ivana...!!
2:32 "The problem is...
The whole world knows your weakness Steve...
Lol
Wait! I will surprise you one day...
The kampong view from the drone is really nice!
Your earlier vdeo showing Kelantan river is the same river that flows by my kampong here . Back in the olden days this river was the main mode of transport from sea into the inland and as far in to Gua Musang. My husband said 40years ago the water wasn't brown like this. During his childhood days the river was clear and clean!
It was in a very nice kampung area!
Brought tears to my eyes and big smiles. Tears are happy tears. I am so happy for you both to be sharing your travels with us. Keep healthy, safe and happy.👍
thank you! 😭😁🙌👍
Another wonderful video. Thanks u guys.
thank you!
I can taste the freshness of every dish... Imma visit kota bharu soonest possible to try its food that Kelantanese are so proud of
whoah! You will love the food here. Delicious and cheap!
Kelantanese ladies n their gold jeweleries, classic scenario...
Why is that?
@@JetLagWarriors They are known for collecting jewelries. You should bring Ivana to one of the jewelry shop in Kota Bharu and observe the scenes :D
Kelantan women traders mostly buy gold as an asset and storage item and also as a decorative item this is their traditional practice for generations
@@JetLagWarriors because kelantanese women are smart enough to save golds instead of printed money which have no value.sometimes they might looked poor and kampung, but dont be surprised if they are richer than the one who owned bungalow in KL.
@uban besi you are right. They might look poor but the jeweleries they are wearing could be enough to buy a car.
I enjoy seeing both of you trying out all the different food and enjoying it.
Delicious makanan klantan, jln2 cari makan
Laksam one of my favourite food when i go to kelantan🤤🤤❤️
I like your honest review!
thank you so much
Suka tengok pasar ni. Bersih je
Love Laksam..so nice
Been waiting this video. Hahahaha : )
thank you! Hope you enjoy it.
nice vlog again! i love the beef soup so much and also nasi kerabu with smoked beef. btw pity ken didnt follow you today.
thank you! We will make a video with him again soon😊
if you still at kelantan I recommend come to kak mah satay 3 near tanah merah, they has very type of satay, chicken, beef, rabbit, deer, duct , also wangyu satay. please try
she right, it the most best satay in malaysia. *crying
Great stuff... Good job both of you..
thanks!
terbaik boss......sedap tuh,steady.......
Wow I can’t believe you’ve met Semutar Guide, been watching his Kelate videos too
Nice semutar👍
Amazing drone shots r now a trademark in your videos' intro.
haha thanks. Glad you like it
@@JetLagWarriors Like it ... no, love it ... yes.
Wow! What a flavour-full day!! 5 stars 👍👍😁
thank you!😁
Food all the way. You're going to miss Malaysia after this, especially the eating and drinking
for sure we will miss Malaysia!
I've marathon watching your video from the beginnig you arrived here in Malaysia all the videos with Pharrel, the lockdown and yeah I've watched all the videos after MCO. With that I can say that Malaysia is becoming your 2nd home now, you've met so many people and you have lots of Malaysian friends & families here! I'm enjoying your kelantan video....need to check out Ken's next!
You are the best!!!!
Yes, Malaysia feels like home for us. We are very comfortable here. We are lucky to be here during this covid time.
Wow, it's really a nice kampong house, plus the food, well presented.
And yes, there is frog fruit( more like a toad) in my kampong. Very interesting fruit where it grows on the trunk of the tree. I haven't seen it until I came to Kelantan years ago. Same for laksam too. I guessed it right that you wouldn't be able to take the laksam! . Even to me it's fishy but I am ok with it. Ivana takes it well.
Glad to see you guys enjoying the kampong area.
The headgear looks great on you Steve! Suits you so well.
Haha yes, the laksam was too fishy for Steve!
And the toad fruit is interesting! Do you like it?
@@JetLagWarriors try pahang laksam nextime.why you skip pahang steve...
@@JetLagWarriors i don't fancy it but it's ok to just eat it.
I had toad fruit (nam nam) when I was small in my village in selangor. I like it. Miss those days.. and I love laksam+sambal belacan. Love love love it
After watching this episode, I was like "where's the next one!!" 20mins plus are definitely not enuff for me watching u guys. Jetlag Warriors is like a more likeable version of Thomas & Sheena from Chasing A Plate, and very close to our heart.
People ♥️ both of u bcoz the way u appreciate everything. Not to mention dat both of u are very sweet & adorable too😊 Your vlogs isnt just about food. You show true passion & love in doing them. I believe you will get to 100k subs in no time.
Wow! Thank you so much for the compliments. Wow, reading this makes us very happy. And to be compared with Chasing A Plate, who we look up to and also our source of inspiration. Thank you!❤️
You had great fun n experience. Steve you look awesome with the singora
haha thank you. The headgear is called semutar.
Singgora is the the traditional clay roof of old Kelantan houses. I read because they are used to be made in Songkla (sounds like singgora) or the masters are from there
@@JetLagWarriors once upon a time ago there is always small axe inside the semutar use as secret weapon... if there is any fight the semutar man will hit the enemy head with this small axe caused minor injury.. They always wear it while attend bull, sheep, & cock fight arena etc to gamble.. Kelantan is rich with their past living heritage... Have a nice day
What a great observation, Ivana! Yes, laksam and laksa are not the same. While some laksa may have coconut in their gravies, but laksam doesn't include spices and curries.
Bestnyer...
thank you
Welcome to kelantan,my hometown.laksam and laksa difrent..all good and the best food
So many interesting things to see, do and eat!
abundance country to visit!
Thanks guyss..inspired
OMG nasi kerabu super yummy...so craving..
You may have missed out on Yati Ayam Percik, but the guesthouse experience looked incredible!
yeah! incredible food in the guesthouse. So fresh and all organic! We will have to make it to Yati as well!
Those r yummy meals....👍👌❤️❤️
Love exploring Malaysian food👍YUM!
hi, I just subscribed to your channel. Btw I am from Kelantan
hello! Welcome to the channel. Thanks so much!
@@JetLagWarriors You guys should visit Pasir Mas and have breakfast or lunch there !
@@fikrikim6648
Agreed!! I live in Pasir Mas.. The foods is heaven❤
Good job brother. Love from South Malaysia. Johor.
Woowww.. Amazing food 😍
Malaysia is food heaven!
I luv laksam and nasi dagang.
30 years I lived in Malaysia. Never heard of Laksam. Thanks for enlightening.
Whoah! You got to try it! Similar to laksa. Have you heard or tried laksa?
@@JetLagWarriors I've had all sorts of laksa; Penang, Johor, Sarawak, Asam, Curry but I honestly cannot say I have tried laksam.
@@navin70 Kelantanese food my bro... Never mind if you never heard about. Hard to find in other states for sure 😁
@@Xeras10 we had laksam in Kedah yea
Oooh sooo good . 👍👍👍
Nice looking in semutar, Steve.
Ivana, youre a champ in food. ..can detect a little chicken stock in the laksam sauce.... score!
Thank you and thank you!😊
You guys so cute and sporting..enjoy
kelantan delights need to be eaten all together.. you cant judge the food just by the gravy only.
lucky guys.. i never been there..nice place..with traditional house and delicious food..of couse both of you enjoyful..
do come when you get the chance to visit Kelantan!😊
👍👍👍😀😀😀😀 excellent food bossque
I like budu with ulam jering
Saiful wearing a semutar and makey ikey... as usual, looking forward your new chapter everyday.
Addicted to Jetlag Warriors I think. Hahahaha.
haha thank you so much!!!👍😁
Hi steve n ivana..the moment i saw u guys in kelantan, i have no choice but to subscribe to your channel..hahaha...hope u will have great time in my hometown kelate...!!!
wow, thank you so much!!!😊
Buah Katok Puru sedapp.😋
well, the place you ate laksam earlier in the video, I went there quite frequently back in high school days. they have literally the best laksam on that floor!
Nice of you guys going back to Pasar Siti Khadijah top floor to try the local dishes sold there as I suggested. 👍😋
Ivana observation is correct. Laksam broth is thicker and creamier cause there is Santan (coconut milk) in it. That’s the main ingredient that makes it different from Laksa broth. It’s ok if you are not into it, Steve. I am not into it also but I like Laksa.
Nice eating outing. 👍👍😋😋🤤🤤😃
But laksa also has coconut milk in it, right?
No. Both have fish but only Laksam broth have coconut milk in it. As the old lady said the top broth pot have Santan (this is the broth she put in your Laksam plate) and the young lady said Laksa Penang , Laksa Lemak (to differentiate between the two broths) which means Laksa Penang broth is used for the normal Laksa and Laksa Lemak broth (Lemak=fat/creamy) is used for Laksam.
There is also a third type of Laksa which is called Laksa Lemak which basically used the normal Laksa noodle but with the Laksam broth. So Laksa Lemak broth is used for both Laksa Lemak dish and Laksam dish.
The best experienced... Proud of you guys...
we love Malaysia!!
That's was an Ohsem daily's travelog Steve and Ivana you'll had done a great job. Make us being craved all the way. By the way where's farell likewise he is out of radar ether way glad to see all of you altogether with abg ajeeb & ken for the next trip
Good job bro!😁
thanks!!
Ayam kampung = free range chicken that eats whatever food it finds and always full mature adult chickens (4-6 months). That's why the meat is a lot tougher than modern husbandry chickens (45 to 60 days)
Healthy free range chicken👍
Nice.. You guys already tried Nasi Kerabu Kelantan, and buah Katak Puru (Cynometra cauliflora) is one of my fav.
wohoo!🙌🙌 Can’t believe there are many more food we haven’t tried yet!!
@@JetLagWarriors yeah.. Still alot of food and place
Nice view at the start
Try some laksa next
kampung vibes!
we have tried laksa in KL. Maybe we will try again here
for all the drinks throughout whole malaysia, u guys can actually order less sugar... just say "kurang manis" and they will reduce the sugar load..
Steve, another method of our way eating sour mango is by dipping it in sugar + soy sauce mixture. that could be the trick for you to eat since you are not into rojak sauce. Just take sugar, put soy sauce just enough to make the sugar granule turn black, then mixed it. Then take the mango and scrub the mixture onto the mango and eat.
thanks!
If you have the time, try visit pantai cahaya bulan and try the udang celup tepung and sotong celup tepung and coconut shake. It's pretty good ngl. And with the beach wind breezing through, nice experience.
Sounds nice! We will try
Salivating n then laughing at steve!
😂😂
Love u guys
thank you😁
I know this is non related but ivana drop that skincare routine sis! Hahahhaha even with the harsh weather and oily oillllyyyyy food she still look gojes sis!
😂thank you...no skin care routine. Just wash with face soap before bed! - Ivana
JetLag Warriors and the brand of the face soap is....?? haha 😂 u just came back from perhentian but u didnot hav sunburnt. do u use sunscreen?
The Handicrapped Stain haha 😅
That nasi kerabu place is 🔥🔥🔥
it was so beautiful!!
Laksa and laksam both have fish base sauce on them so will be amazed if Steve actually love it.
Singgora is a really exclusive guest stay for you to enjoy kampung scenery and atmosphere. It’s actually quite hard to have Ayam Kampung in the city as this type of chicken is grown without additional food to increase the meat volume.
My favourite combination of nasi kerabu is having it with grill beef, pickled garlic, solok lada, fish cracker, and fried fish in batter.
Don’t forget to have breakfast at pok mat pulau pisang and have their honey teh tarik.
whoah have you stayed at Singgora before? Amazing place!
I love laksam..
"Fish belaka semua ni"... The auntie said. Hahahaha. Do you understand that Ivana?
No, what does it mean???
@@JetLagWarriors it means everything is fish here
all dishes base ingredient is fish..👍
fish actually our main meals before chickens, most of the Malay community was fishing so much of our menu based on fish since the ancient times there was no fridge so hard to keep the food so various methods are used to store food in a long time To avoid fish from spoiling and wasting.
Deda Yusof 😂😂😂
Even as a local, We really enjoy your food+travel videos. Feel free to explore Malaysia, Truly Asia. We wish that we cross paths with Steve & Ivana soon. :)
Thanks so much😊
Nice foods in kelantan 👍👍👍
Hi Steve & Ivana, Wow.....The Singgora Guesthouse Meals
Really Make Me Jealous. Got Room For One More.....Me?
Love Steve Red Semutar.....U ROCK Bro 😎
All The Best & Have Fun In Kelantan U 2.
From Dublin With ❤
Thank you! Visit Kelantan when you get the chance to come to Malaysia!
I know jetlag warrior are very exciting eating Kelantan ayam percik..... Ivana I very slaute to u because very time you taste the new dishes..... Your mind never reject on your tongue.....
Next for you guys is colek-colek (all kinds of deep fry battered-seafood) serve with chilli sauce..
colek colek party next!
Laksa and Laksam for Kelantanese version is similar, just the noodle is different in shape. Laksa is more similar to noodle while laksam is like you roll it big and cut it vertically. Both use the same 'soup' or you call it kuah, it is 'santan' or coconut based kuah.
While the orange colour laksa that ivana speak of is maybe Penang's version of laksa. The kuah is different than kelatan's kuah
yes, we had laksa with red base soup
