  • How expensive is food shopping in Malaysia? Or wonder what foreign people buy at supermarkets here in Malaysia? Well we're going to take you around with us as we do a big weekly shop at our local Tesco's in Kuala Lumpur.
    We tell you exactly how much everything costs (it's crazy cheap!) and the amazing food you can get here. We even total everything up at the end and give you a final price for how much it costs us to do a weekly shop!

    Almost all things are really cheap and value-for-money buys compared to Singapore where I live. Here we pay almost 3 times as much. That's why I love to shop in Malaysia. I target their greens most because they are super fresh, straight from the farms. And I love the Malaysian people as they are sincerely nice and friendly. They have better customer service than here in Singapore.

    If u guys ever come to Melaka (one of the state in Malaysia), take note that there is a "no plastic" policy for groceries (excluding cooked food/beverages and clothings) in major supermarket like Tesco, Giant and Aeon. They do provide plastic bags in smaller stores like 7-eleven and "mini" market. Any bags provided in Melaka must be either paper bags or biodegradable plastic bags (though some shops tend to ignore that). #fun fact.

    Nice video mates! Totally different from the usual food hunting vids. This is proper mint!
    I'm a Malaysian by the way and these are my personal favorites (actually many Malaysians vouch on them too):
    1. Best bread: Gardenia. You can find them everywhere except in Sabah and Sarawak. If you fancy "dessert" breads, get the Butterscotch ones. Drop dead delish!
    2. Curry powder mix: Baba's or Alagappas and make sure they're the extra hot/spicy ones. You won't be disappointed, except when you're back in the UK and you can't find any of them ha!
    3. Chili sauce: Lingham's. Legends drink them for breakfast.
    4. Coconut milk: M&S. You got that one spot on! There must be a drip of Malaysian blood in you guys somewhere.
    5. Baked beans: Ayam brand. The same brand as your cans of tuna. Most Malaysians love their baked beans thick and goopy like the Americans but personally, I prefer Heinz's because English baked beans are runnier and soupier, and I don't know why that is supposed to be a good thing but it works really well for me.
    6. Fresh Milk: Goodday. Proper creamy goodness. Dutchlady isn't that bad either. If you want a more "grassy" taste, then Farm Fresh is the way to go.
    If you want more "exotic" stuffs you can go and find them at Jaya Grocer or LuLu Hypermarket. If you're on a sugar binge, head straight to LuLu. Their Arab pastries are the best!
    Cheerio!

      Gardenia is actually exists in Sabah. But only the sliced bread variation not the Delicia lines (85 cents). In Sarawak, no Gardenia at all as the state government tries to keep local bakeries and businesses to survive.

    Definitely a little bit more expensive than here in Vietnam, but it looks like the grocery selection is a bit better there. Closer to Thailand type of selection, which is great! Looking forward to seeing Malaysia. :D

    • @AlwaysaFriday
      @AlwaysaFriday  Před 6 lety

      The selection is incredible, the best in Asia for western food at reasonable prices. Thanks for watching and hopefully it helped!

    Malaysian here. Coconut stuffs are like our dairy. Santan (coconut milk) = our cooking cream for rice, desserts and a whole lot more. That's why they're abundant in Malaysian markets. :) Glad you enjoy them!
    Oh, and the tea brand BOH is pronounced a bit like 'bow' or 'boe', but with less stress on the w or e. :)

    U could get free-range eggs. Look for 'sandy' eggs. That's what usually they're called here. They're usually at any Tesco or marts.

    @mutanic82 Před 6 lety +1

    My monthly shopping at Tesco average within range of 250-300, sometimes it could reach up to 500 depending on item purchased. That's definitely monthly stock.
    My suggestion to you, try buying your veggies or fish meat chicken etc at Pasar Malam or Uptown(night market) which is quite common in Malaysia. There's a lot of food to be tasted as well.

    @MrJrchef Před 6 lety +1

    Yes, we do have pork products in supermarkets
    2digits price in your receipt should be your butter as would cost to RM10-11 depending on which brand
    tesco is the local's one stop to cheap products, mainly locals.

If you like chilli, Thai sukiyaki chilli sauce best for any compliments like steamboat, burger, dipping any kind of vegetables & meat, bbq meat etc... Don't forget to buy salty plum powder goes well with guava and green apples.

    Nice video guys. Fyi, Malaysia still not big on fancy lingo or terms where you are used to.

Almost the same price which you got, but its smaller in size

    i must agree on ur say about the pricing of milk in Malaysia. i lived in Liverpool during my younger days and when i got back to Malaysia in 1997 i cant find milk with the exact taste i was used to in the UK(that time) . Nowadays there are already milk with the taste im used to but can only find whenever i go to Peninsular. Here in East Malaysia,i still cant find milk with the same taste and price is much higher. Anyway, my friends from abroad like KAYA spread or coconut egg jam. u guys should try them!

    • @ZaraMX3869
      @ZaraMX3869 Před 6 lety +1

    @choims1855 Před 6 lety +1

    As a Malaysian who earns income in RM, price is vital in daily consumption of goods & products. There isn't a particular hypermarket or supermarket offering the cheapest price of goods. Luckily I am staying in an area surrounding by Mydin, Giant, TF Value Mart, Tesco & Econsave (all within 1km. NSK unfortunately is 12km further away). Therefore I am able to be a rationale consumer comparing prices, especially with the help of hp app such as Smartshoppers. Btw if u obtain a Tesco card, u will earn points when u spend in Tesco. The points will be subsequently converted into cash voucher plus additional discount voucher for goods u commonly purchase.

    • @AlwaysaFriday

    Oh mate, I just got back home to Malaysia after living in London for 3 years and I can honestly say, it is indeed much cheaper here compared to U.K. But I do miss the cheaper alcoholic drinks back there since I usually go to Wetherspoon almost every day for drinks as it was just around the corner from my place hahaha. But 24 hours eateries here? Omg I so miss a lot them whilst I was in London. No more frozen pizza for midnight snack lol
