Now that we are in Malaysia, it's time to try some Malaysian food, and first on the list ins Apam Balik. Apam Balik is thin pancake filled with chocolate, sweet corn and condensed milk. We thought this was going to be easy to find but it proved alot harder than we thought. We also wanted to try Char Koey Teo as this in not only a popular dish to try in Johor Bahru, but a popular dish to try in all of Malaysia.

The Indonesian language was from the same diaspora as the Malay language. They are from the same Proto-Malay root language. However sometime later the Indonesian language came into its own during the Dutch occupation while the Malay language stayed the same. Therefore the language, food and culture is almost identical.
Indonesian language is full of English words. Although malay do have words borrowed from Portuguese and chinese but mostly intact original
The origin of both languages and the languages of Sulu and Brunei, is the Malay language.
martabak its from malaysia food original or roty canai....google sir food ...👍😁
Char koay teow meaning "char" (stir fry), koay teow (type of noodle) has 2 versions :
- Chinese version , (Non halal), usually with lard oil and pork sausages with shrimp, and bean sprouts dry and spicy. Traditionaly served on banana leaf.
- Malay version (Halal) usually has more gravy and cooked with seafood
Apam balik (Pancake) has 2 types :
- Thick
- Thin
Traditionally served with peanuts, butter and sweet corn inside. You can customize it. Famous in Petaling Street Kuala Lumpur
- Some places in Night markets you can find variations of it. Usually sold in small stalls in the afternoon or evening that sells 'kuih' and drinks.
Enjoy your travels, hope this helps. Welcome to Malaysia, have a pleasant stay :)
It’s the other way around. Singapore was part of the Johor- Riau empire before it was leased to the British. Later Singapore and Johor joined Msia before both Msia and Singapore mutually agreed for Singapore to cede from Msia.
Apam balik is actually a Hokkien desert originated from Fujian China which later spread to Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia. It's called "Ban Chang Kuih" in Hokkien and is a sweet peanut pancake (you can find it in Penang too). I've never tried one with corn and milk before, and neither pisang goreng with chocolate, guess Indonesian has different variations. In fact both the apam balik and char kuay teow you were looking for are Hokkien foods.
Yes originally from Fujian China
Mertabak in Malaysia is different from Indonesia because in Malaysia is mixed with chicken or beef. In Malaysia it is call Apam Balik not mertabak. Keladi mean Yam. Malaysian food is totally different from Indonesian.
They like to claim its theirs
Remember, most of the workers in Malaysian restaurants are foreigners who hardly speak English. Their knowledge of local names of food is also limited.
You should try the chinese style char kueh toew when you get to Penang. Its totally different.
In Malaysia and in every state there's a foods market called "Pasar Malam" which translate to Night market. Do a research which place they're opened because everyday the night market changes places.
There's also another version of Apam balik and it's called Apam balik mini, its crunchier than the original one. And you guys has to try Malaysian traditional kueh ( Malaysian sweets) also can be found in night market and various places.
You will find apam balik at street food places or morning and night markets anywhere in Malaysia.
That koay teow (wet) Malay style... what u eat at penang (dry) original chinese style😊
Chinese version is called Char Kuey Teow...'Char' is a caramelized sugar effect from soy sauce... 😊
@@herryherry8659 Actually "Char" means stir fried, "Kuey Teow" is the rice noodle. They're Hokkian words 😂
@@herryherry8659 char means fry in hokkien
That is "Char kuey teow basah" the malay version the Chinese version is the dry one. ❤
That doesn't look like authentic CKT to me!! Is that the southern/Singapore version?
@@squidster3128 that's a Malay rendition of a "char kuey tiao"
Char Kurt Teow is a Chinese dish. It suppose to be fried flat noodles. What you got is a Malay style of fried noodles.
😅char kway teow is a original Chinese dish whislt the Malay dish are spicier. There are a variant of CKT in Kuala Lumpur, Malacca and Penang. The Chinese Penang one are the best. If you are non Muslim you could want try the big prawn pork lard, variant, it's super super good.
You should try also authentic Chinese version CHAR KUEY TEOW and APAM BALIK, give you different surprises!
Murtabak and Apam Balik are two completely different food genre , one is savoury while another is is dessert
murtabak is indian too
The char kwey tiau you got is the wet version...the popular one's are the dry version mainly sold at Chinese stalls/vendors
apam balik and martabak are different here. many singaporeans cross to johor bahru every day just for lunch.
Just for lunch... that is crazy😮
@@thebuddymoon based on price, portion, and of course, taste of food.
And that is why the border crossing is the busiest in the world. Soon they will rent condo in jb.
Yeah.. Finally you got it.. She was so kind at the end of the video. Keep rocking guys ❤🎉
OMG buddymooners! You two are just so good looking! Thanks for another exciting adventure!
Bro I am from India, currently working in Malaysia I want to meet you. i am your big fan i want to meet you
"apam balik" is not a main dish for the local, hence it is not widely available. it is a dessert
yup. it's a snack/street food
Malaysia is another good destination for tourism because of Food and beaverages availability in entire country are similar.i liked your video
Keladi in english is called Yam or Taro, it is root vegetables..There is various kind of Yam like Purple Yam & Africa Yam(Yellow & White Yam)... In evening in Malaysia usually from 2pm until 6pm, after 6pm we called night... 😊
I love watching your vlogs because you both are generally happy and always say Thank you!
Thank you for this wonderful video.
The Purple drink you guys got was in fact a small sweet potato that is common in Asia.
It is especially found in Filipino food. They make Pie and desserts out of them.
Mc Donald Philippines, actually sells a Pie made from them.
They are very good just baked and eaten with a sprinkle of salt!
those colourful drinks are mostly just flavoured syrup and colouring and with lots of sugar added. I would avoid them to be honest.
When you’re referring to char kuey teow, only the Chinese version comes to mind. More chances to try them out in KL and Penang!
What they ate was kway tiaw teng not char kway tiaw. What a joke
We did try this in penang😁😁 see our challenge video that we released a few days ago😁
They do not know malay cook kway tiaw differently. Also popiah , malays prefer to fry. Chinese popiah is wet and fresh as and when ordered only. The skin is thin, so no way it can be prepared in advance like a bun or cake shop
@@keangwooichoo6138 The joke is why call it char kway tiaw when it is, what you said, kway tiaw teng? Let’s not mince words here but that would be extra confusing for foreigners wouldn’t it? I do hope common sense would prevail in Malaysia and not everything “Malaysia boleh, Malaysia boleh”. I’m very concern that it would become Malaysia tak boleh.
@@funnydiecast664 perhaps that malay guy fry the flat noodles, and then pour soup to make 'yin yong' or 'wan than hor fun' style. I work in a hotel, they like char kway tiaw wet by pouring water into it. So it will be very soft soggy.
Thanks! Great series!
Thanks Harry😁😁 appreciate your support and glad and you enjoying the videos😁
Buddymoon, you guys doing a really good job, I really enjoy your vlogs. God bless you both.
Thank you so much😁😁
Usually apam balik are sold at pasar malam (night market)…
Indian people are always helpfull ❤
Indian malaysian and indian Singaporean its generally super friendly, love diversity in this country
@@AlfariziZakaria u are right✔
I like Indian food
The Indonesian lady looks more helpful 😃
@bhimsensaru4796 my biggest question to immigration and police, why are myanmarese and indonesians allowed to sell or open shop in johor baru. They are not allowed. It is health risk as they never do injections in their country.
Been following you guys since the terrifying bee attack. Welcome to Malaysia.
That was shocking to me to see.
Oh goodness🤣🤣 the bees.... terrible experiance... but thats for us in Malaysia😁
This is the first time I see such watery Char koay teow, learn something new today!
Apam balik resembles something we have in Hong Kong maybe 50 years ago, need to try it next Malay visit.
because that is a malay version of a fried noodles in sauce. Not really a char kuey tiow
20:30 that's aloo chop in India, it's the same dish
U must eat Mee Bandung, Kacang Pool, Mee Rebus, Nasi Ambeng, Murtabak when u at Johor
Both of you guys are loving couple, entertaining to watch, teasing or compete each other who makes the right choice n smiling all the way which makes me smiles watching your antics..for your info..most malaysian speaks fluent english at least n those who barely speaks english are not Malaysian..they are employed to work as an employee to Malaysian Employer..Greetings from Borneo Sabah East Malaysia My home state..cheers
Of course Indonesian and Malaysia gonna sound the same. Indonesian language originated from Malay language which official language of Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei.
And Murtabak and Apam Balik are different things. We are not claiming these foods ours hence we know the origin of the dish
Apam Balik is actually a chinese dessert that originally sold by Chinese hawker but gradually changed to Malay hawker. The name is translated to Flip Pancake which refer to the technique
Murtabak is actually a middle east/Indian cuisine and it is the original name. Malaysian didnt change anything about the dish. Indonesian however confuse the dish with Apam Balik. They are known to get the name of imported dish wrong. lol
Char Kuey Tew is Chinese dish that usually dry like Mi Goreng. But the Malay version is different because it is wet with a lot of gravy.
Have a nice time guys
Hello friends, I'm happy when you got your popular Malaysian dish. I wish you to have many nice Malaysian foods
Johor Bharu was never part of Singapore lol
Singapore was part of Johor
Exactly. Singapore or temasek was part of johor sultanate. I am a bit disappointed with food and history wrongly represented in this vlog.
You guys should have googled for night markets or "pasar malam" in Malaysia. There are tons of night markets everyday. When you first pronounced apam balik it was slightly off hence the first person didn't understand😂The char kway tiao is actually a chinese hokkien name i.e. it is actually a chinese dish. So you were actually trying a completely different dish.
Enjoy mate 😊
In Malaysia we call it Apam Balik but in Indonesian they call Murtabak Manis. Same food but diffrence name. You can got easier Apam Balik in every pasar malam ( night market ).
Hai guys i've watch your video about the southern most point of continental asia in sentosa..well if you guys are still in johor bahru you guys can visit the real southern most point of continental asia in Tanjung Piai not that far from Johor Bahru
Wonderful ❤
Apam balik have 2 style.. u try the fluffy one.. the other one crunchy😊😅
Welcome to my home base.....Hope you enjoy what JB has to offer.... ..Haha!! Cheers mate!!
Apam balik … not apam balak hehe… Indonesia has martabak manis which is similar to apam balik in Msia
U guys travelled all the way frm SA.. endend up in JB and had to try apam balik made by Indonesians.. 😄😄😄
What u guys tried is by workers at stalls... Authentic... U need to find a "pakcik or makcik" usually who operates by roadside or certain night markets... Happy hunting guys.. btw malaysian apam balik has got 2 versions ones which is thin n crispy.(original malaysian).. and the other which is thick ...
We try tried both😜 you will see this in out future videos😁😁
you can try desert ABC and cendol
Oh! You guys are from S. Africa, no wonder have a different accent when you speak English. Interesting! A long way from Home to Asia. Enjoy the traveling! 🤭🤗
try nasi lemak.. roti canai and ramly burger..
Get d chat koay teow in Penang. With a duck egg.
Welcome to Johor Bahru,im from Johor Bahru..
U should go Larkin or Pandan city uptown Jb den u can find apam balek.
welcome to johor malaysia.
Fun how you previewed the locations in daylight then back in (Somewhat) more glamorous nighttime . . . Wow, 281k so Fast ! 😺😺😺
Amazing right😜 clearly everything becomes alive at night🤣
The drink was made from Purple yam aka Ube. Scientific name Dioscorea alata
Another wonderful vlog mam love to see your vlog from Pakistan 🙂. May Allah SWT bless you and your family from Pakistan 🙂.
The path is suddenly ending, there's no zebra crossing, it's a highway... Yep welcome to Malaysia 😂
come too kota tinggi i can treat your the best meal in my town...please come
that lady at the end was so nice!
I can recommend you a few shop called name vigna bamboo briyani it near tampoi indah you will find alot restaurant n shop near here
Somehow consumer price in JB is about the same or a bit higher than KL, compared to other cities in Malaysia.
Purple sweet potato! Very common in Pacific & Asia
Great. Now i am hungry. 😩😩
Is that Ghee? The lady asked... 😂
In the char koey tiow is not spring onions but flat garlic chives. Western chives have a hollow inside
It is normally written as Char koay teow. But I spell it thus to help Westerners pronounce
Mertabak in Msia is pan bread with chicken or beef inside
Night market, you can get in the EVENING. That boy was correct.
Both Bahasa Indonesia and Bahasa Malaysia are basically the same language. Bahasa Indonesia has Dutch and Malay has many different languages mixed in. About 220 million people can speak bahasa natively, that is higher than both Japanese and Korean combined. :)
Ahahaha so cute char kuey tiaw 😂😂😂
The women seller is very kind, she offer free pisang goreng
Please come legoland malaysia in johor bahru
Love from INDIA 🇮🇳🇮🇳
U most welcome
I always missed their night market because when night falls, i need to rush to take the public transport back to Singapore
what is the last bus available to singapore?
Come to sabah, malaysia brother
Gosh…. you got a different version of char kway teow. You should buy the Chinese one which is delicious
We tried char kway teow in our amazing race video released a week ago😁 completely different😁
Please come on IND one's again 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
You guys.... lovely couple....have you completed 1000days ?
We have not... only half way😁
All the best👍
Cha Kway Tiao means Fried Flat white Noodles. It is a hokkien Chinese word
Immediately south.
@@tantangpenn5496 Southern China ?
@@SuccessforLifester
The one with the one and only language that changes pronunciation to suit the melody of the entire sentence.
@@tantangpenn5496 Teochew sounded nicer though in terms of melody. Also a lot of similar words between teochew and hokkien
@@SuccessforLifester
As linked to the Cursed Mosque in Songkhla, it's a taboo to link to other than the 3 municipalities north, unless you are the boss of Nippon Paint.
Just compare the pronunciation of Fry between being solitarily and to be followed by kewitiao.
Hi you already try nasi lemak
It is simply kwetiaw in Indonesia 🇮🇩
Want to find apam balik (Malay) , nasi lemak and Char Kue Tiau
Why you didn't have nasi goreng? 🎉❤
keladi yam is ube
Are you from south Africa?
just let say, pisang goreng, nasi goreng, mee goreng etc. is southeast asia foods...
hahahha..the drink is Yam = Keladi in bahasa
Yam is keladi in malay😊
malaysia has the new seocnd tallest building in the world u guys should see it
Malaysia and Indonesia is like British amd American.. or like Pakistan and India.. you can find Pani Puri in India and you also can find it in Pakistan… we are from the roots.. its not like we are stranger to one another
Lol. Amazing comparison
@@keangwooichoo6138 I thought this is common knowledge
Singapore's old name was temasek. Johor sultanate owns singapore, Not singapore owns johor!
Do the amazing race already stopped?? I thought it gonna be a whole Malaysia episode..
This is back dated video
We eat fried banana without chocolates. Indonesians eat it differently.
Justin Timberlake ...in Malaysia 😮😮
Bro I am from India, currently working in Malaysia Johor bharu senai I want to meet you. i am your big fan i want to meet you
Don’t ask for murtabak over here in Malaysia. It’s a different kind of food altogether 😂 from apam balik
I do ask for apam balik🤣🤣 just using Murtabak incase they understand that too😜
Murtabak Manis in Indonesia is equivalent to apam balik in Malaysia
But murtabak alone is absolutely different..apam balik is easily available at the pasar malam@ night market
@@thebuddymoon meanwhile char kuey teow is originally a Malaysian Chinese food which means fried flat noodles which you guys had in Penang during the race 🤣
@@thebuddymoonMurtabak in Malaysia is a savoury dish..is a grilled(hot plate) stretched flat bread with mixture of eggs, beef/chicken chunk, onions, spices filling..Murtabak Malaysia is like Roti Canai/Peratha/Prata with filling inside, usually dip with curry/dhall(type of lentils) gravy or with onion pickles...Murtabak Singapore also is a savoury dish, totally different from what you have eaten before... 😊
In Malay language "C" have vocal sound like "CH" like in CHannel, CHart, CHange spelling so its called CHAR KUE TIAW, TI = SOUND LIKE TEA+AUw.
APAM BALIK TO BE SOUND THE BALIK WORD BALIK = BAR + LEG»»» LITERALLY
❤❤
