    Hi guys 👋🏼 just wanted to say, we did do our research regarding the food and cuisines so we apologise if we got it wrong, some people are agreeing it’s a mixture of different cuisines others are telling us it’s completely wrong so we are sorry if we offended you. In regards to comparing some food to the Philippines, we are based there and most of our audience are from there, we simply wanted them to know what it’s similar to and encourage them to come try it 😊 we don’t think Malaysian dishes are similar to the Philippines at all just some of the street snacks are similar 😊🙏🏼 thank you for the support

      I don't think it is an offence when we mentioned the similarity or differences about anything between different countries ..we all different anyway ... imagine everything is the same....how boring life would be ....haiyaa....

    • @hplagt6880
      @hplagt6880 Před rokem +17

      No we are not offended...its ok to give your Filipino audiences your review so that at least they know roughly how the food taste. Actually the ingredients we use throughout Southeast Asia are the same but added ingredients maybe different and different style of cooking..so thats why some food taste almost similar. I think some people commented because they just want to clarify and educate so that you don't get misinformed..thats all. Sometimes google search may not be entirely correct concerning local food...the best is to ask the locals..so interaction with the locals is important..you will learn a lot. No worries,most Malaysians speak English.

    You should not compare it with Filipino food, because I have been there and the food is totally different and unique to Malaysia. Most of the ingredients are totally different too. Each country has their own unique food. So the ones you tried were uniquely Malaysian. Cheers from 🇵🇭

    • @ZoeCzar
      @ZoeCzar  Před rokem +20

      Sorry if you thought we were comparing, we were simply saying what we thought it tasted similar too (especially the soy bean drink) so our Filipino audience would know what it tasted like, most of the food we tasted was street food but again is very different as Philippines is mostly meat street food and this isn’t! I’d agree that the main dishes such as roti nasi lemak etc is nothing like Filipino food sorry for confusion 😊

    Another kind of ikan bilis commonly called anchovies in Malaysia is white baits. THE SHRIMP PASTE IS ACTUALLY SAMBAL, CILI COOKED WITH ONION AND SHRIMP PASTE, and tamarind juice no tomatoes in it. If you taste lemongrass in the rice, maybe the cook do put lemongrass in it, but nasi lemak usually is rice, coconut milk and pandan leaves.

    the black drink you had is Monk fruit herbal tea. The sweetness comes from monkfruit, the balls displayed underneath the ice box at the stall. Monkfruit is also now a popular sugar alternative in health stores (kind of like stevia). And the fruit they threw in is Longan.

    If you can't really take hot spicy food, then if the dish comes with *sambal,* ask them to serve the *sambal* separately in a small plate or small bowl whatever, so when you eat, you can try mixing just a little bit of the *sambal* with the rice or whatever main dish at first. Usually they'll oblige.
    Now if the dish is cooked together with the *sambal,* as in mixed together inside instead of the *sambal* being a side accompaniment, for example the traditional dish *nasi goreng kampung (village fried rice),* then you can ask for the dish to be prepared *kurang pedas* for you *(pedas = chilli/spicy hot, kurang = less)*
    _Note: you can ask if a dish is _*_pedas_*_ or medium pedas etc_

    1:00 They put sugar on it to make it sweet but that's not the main reason, it is to avoid the chestnut from bursting / explode accidentally by thermal shock.. that's why the chinese doing it that way. It's very unique too

    if you dad lived here in Kl in the 60s++ or early 70s, then the sweet bread probably = roti bengali or roti manis. Its a bun type. Just google up these names and get your dad to check the pictures. Nowadays the taste of these roti is no longer the same like those time. Maybe because of type of oven that they used during those days. Anyway, you can still get these roti (bread) in certain bakeries.

Mata kucing is longan (lanzonges). can try roti canai, chicken murtabak, tosai, vadai, soup noodles (Chinese), Hokkien Mee, Nasi Kandar (but ask the price of seafood and lamb before you pick the food), egg tart, coconut tart, Chinese pork belly noodles, bak hwa (pork), Peking duck rice if u find any.
