Thank you for this wonderful video. Good to see that you tried the Malaysian traditional Chinese dessert. There are close similarities between the traditional Malay, Chinese and Nyonya desserts. I like them all. You should also try the savoury dessert or kueh or snack like karipap, popiah and vada.
Yeah I should try savoury ones. Yeah I'm not sure if it was Malay or Chinese, but looking them up I found out that there are a lot of similarities so Malay sweet as its in Malaysia😁🥰🇲🇾
@@Gymson No worries. That's what explorations are all about, learning, discovering and enjoying new life adventures. You are doing just fine, great actually. I'm not that familiar with the Chinese and Indian savoury kueh, I only know the steamed bun with savoury filling or popiah and vada. But for Malay kueh, I know more like karipap, pulut panggang, kueh cara berlauk, pulut urap, cucur badak, cucur udang, keropok leko, sata, otak otak, and many more, yummy. 😀
Glad that you are well. Pudu area is more of local Chinese food. You can explore the food here. That's another place in Pudu which is name Restaurant Ruby Dessert serving dessert paste such as black sesame paste, almond paste, peanut paste but not the kueh. If you don't mind the hawker stalls you can also try out food at Wai Sek Kai street, Pudu.
The tiny red orangy angku kueh is shaped like a turtle. Symbolic of longevity, turtle live long n steady.😂😂😂Chinese ate it during festive season and especially when they got a first month baby's biryhday🎉🎉🎉 congrats for newly coming to malaysia with ang ku kueh 🎉🎉🎉
The last dessert you ate called Ang-Ku Kueh. Traditional nyonya (Chinese pranakan) dessert. Actually it has veriety of many fillings. Couldn't be wrong with the taste. As a malay, it is one of my favourite chinese dessert in Malaysia.
@@Gymson all dessert you ate were local malaysian cuisine, particularly chinese malaysian style. Perhaps you can explore more type of traditional desserts from malay and Indian as well.
I just realised that bubur you ate doesn't have the colourful chewy ball things. That's the important ingredient actually. Any Malaysians please correct me if I'm wrong, because bubur chacha supposed to have the colourful jelly noodles/chewy balls in it, or maybe that's just the optional.
Those are not malay desserts, those are actually malaysian chinese (more specifically ethnic peranakan/nyonya) desserts. Hint - look at the chinese characters on the wall and signboard/menu. We call those type of dessert = kueh. I love those nyonya kueh and used to eat them at least once a week when i was younger. Glad that you enjoyed them too.
Yeah, it was at Pudu. A lot of Chinese restaurants there, but I think also Malay influence in their food? It was yummy surely, but maybe a bit less next time😆
@@Gymson Yes some of those kueh use similar asian ingredients with malay kueh. Those items you had are distinctly traditional malaysian chinese desserts with some malay influence but you can't call them malay desserts. Its part of ethic peranakan chinese culture to use local (malaysian) ingredients in their chinese food. If you would like to taste real malay kueh or food do let me know and I can treat you at some super nice authentic malay food/ restaurants.
@@Gymson yea but i want take pictures with you to hope you enjoyed here in Malaysia you really forget to diet here because Malaysia have lot delicious food you will not skip to eat 😂😂😂😂😂
Well at least the green coloured kueh is malay..its kuih buah melaka..some may called it onde2..but kueh always been a shared culture among malaysian various ethnic group.
Awesome! It was good to try and experience those flavours. Yeah I feel like a lot of shared culture here and everybody putting maybe their own twist on it :)
Have you visited east peninsula states, like Terengganu and Kelantan? If not, please come over. I’m sure you will enjoy our traditional Malay foods and desserts. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us❤
Sweet day for kevin in pudu 😊 reminded me a recent movie, wonka, but this is in pudu😂😂 recently taiwanese actor just got the best actor in one of the movie directed by malaysian regarding a story in pudu. The name of the movie is abang adik😊
@@derickpehpeh541 Yes Soya bean drink I tasted on my video in Chinatown. Tofu pudding not yet. Nice Pudu can be good to get some older looking footage, as it seems to be a bit older region.
@@Gymson u sure kevin? chinese girls chinese girls chinese girls for the episodes, cant find it... yea, pudu is the memories for many of the older generation chinese, the place of their childhood, families, schools. Some places should b maintained n kept like wat it was , coz those r sweat memories😄
Mr.Gymson...if u want to eat all foods here in malaysia...u can use Spoon n folk...no problem...its ok..as long u were feel comfortable n easy to eat...malaysian here r very2 use d words Up to u sir...as long u happy wht r u doing😅
Yeah I see that too, people don't judge. Up to you whatever is your preference. But I like to mix it up, sometimes eat with hand too😁 Thank you for your lovely comment🥰
HAIYAAA THIS IS CHINESE DESSERT LA 😅 you have miss the most yummy Eggs pudding just next beside the shop there please go eat that is super sweet and yummy desert all in pudu
These are chinese kueh but to be frank Chinese kueh and Malay Kueh are almost similar and some are the same they are rarely overly sweet , we just don't like them at the level of sweetness of cakes or even Kunafeh or baklavas . To westerners they just look the same probably lol. IF you still want to try more sweeter version of Kueh try Kelantanese kueh they are often made extra sweet. or Chinese bakeries where there's fusion of western and traditional Chinese baked goods.
@@Gymson personally i like them not too sweet less in calories i was skinny when i used to eat them now that i live n the west everything is too sweet and i am getter fatter every year lol 🤣
@@mr3111 I think its not the sweets make us fat, its the fat :D. Fat 9kcal per gram, sugar 4kcal. I see Asians very skinny(in a good way) , but they smash rice without worries. :D But they eat less fat and protein than Western people, protein and fat is good food to fatten up the cows aswell :D
@@Gymson Thats assuming fats are readily absorbed but they may not but sugars always breaks down and gets easily absorbed. Also it doesn't matter if you have 10g of sugar its still more calories than 1g of fat if sugar intake is high. People on keto diet eat meat but not much carbs can lose weight but those meat steaks is high in fat.
@@mr3111 I think Keto is a crash diet. :D It's gonna end with massive BINGE eating spree and you gain all your weight you lost in months, back in just one week :D. But life is a journey and we are all free to try out whatever works for us :)
@@Gymson Those desserts that you have tried are traditional sweets and were very popular among the Straits Born Chinese in the early days.I personally like 10:07 the green pastry made of screwpine leaves and the filling is palm sugar coated with shredded coconut.
@Gymson yes when air is dry, dust can fly into our noses which is also dry. It can get deep into our system. When nose is moist, it stops the dirty air easily. I used to get bronchitis previously. Now I only use AC when required.
Ooh Those of this desert is calling chinese cakes & the shop chinese boy he did'nt know how explains to u in American English & u know bro on priviously agos mine family was runing these kinds of chinese tradisional cakes desert bro
Thanks for the warm welcome! I don't know how long I will plan to go to Thailand in end of January, but probably will come back after 1 month :). Im from Europe. :)
Nyonya.. Those chinese came to this place and mixed with locals before the locals were converted to Islam and thus they were not forced to convert.. And thus retained their identity a bit even though languange and food already mixed..

Why were you sick? Hope everything is fine
Sleep with A/C on too cold and felt rough in throat..🥹

@@Gymson bronchitis can lead to pneumonia

@@Gymson increase temperature to 22 or 23 C
Good my friend 👍, 🙏#radenpendy from Indonesia
I understand already😅
The last one, coconut and palm sugar, not brown sugar
Palm sugar, yeah now as you say it. I see that for sure😊

Nice! 🥰
Hello Gymson how are you?Welcome to Malaysia,wish you enjoy your stay here.Btw how long will you be staying here?Are you from The USA?
Thanks for the warm welcome! I don't know how long I will plan to go to Thailand in end of January, but probably will come back after 1 month :). Im from Europe. :)
Vegetarian kuih
Yeah! :D I think hard to find non-vegetarian cake
This is chinese malaysian desert ..
When I did my research there were a lot of similarities. According to google atleast..
Nyonya.. Those chinese came to this place and mixed with locals before the locals were converted to Islam and thus they were not forced to convert.. And thus retained their identity a bit even though languange and food already mixed..
You need to drink water
Haha yeah, I wanted some drink, but they didn't have anything I wanted. Water sounded too boring that time :D
You did a great job trying new things in KL.
