Supermarkets like Village Grocers are high end supermarkets. You should go to hupermarkets like NSK which is way cheaper. Its fasting months, you should visit the ramadan bazaars scattered in and around KL. The biggest one is in Putrajaya with 160 stalls. They are open after 3pm.
poor malasian 😂😂😂
As in any countries there are tiers for supermarkets based on the products and customers. In Malaysia;
Tier 1 - high end to cater mostly for expats and high end customers; eg. Village Grocer, Jaya Grocer, Mercato, Food Merchants
Tier 2 - Mid end to cater to middle class customers; eg. AEON, Lotus (TESCO), Giant's, Mydin
Tier 3 - Low end to low income earners; eg NSK, Econsave, Hero Supermarket, TF Value-Mart
For veggies, fruits, fresh meat of course the cheapest place are the wet market or local stores :)
Welcome to Malaysia everyone! Thought of giving some tips to all foreign travellers here:
1. Malaysia is a very welcoming nation - don’t hesitate to come! English is widely spoken in the country esp in big cities and Malaysian are very friendly people. You will notice people will adore you as a tourist and don’t be shocked if they even try to take pictures with you as if you’re a celebrity! Be prepared - dress to kill (joking! Pls only wear light clothes here, its humid)
2. There is only one season in Malaysia which is summer so you are more than welcome to come anytime of the year. Just be mindful that certain parts of the country experience monsoon especially along East Coast and during this period of time - travel to island, sea related activities cant be done during monsoon due to safety. But there is always islands in other parts of Malaysia, so you can still come!
3. Be mindful if you are visiting Malaysia during school holiday or festive season (Eid, Chinese New Year, Deepavali) as it will be jam packed in hotels, roads and shopping malls. Booked early all your flights, transit, hotel etc. Price can be triple double during festive season. Not to forget the amount of cars on the road! Malaysian takes their holiday season very seriously so be prepared.
4. Kuala Lumpur is only a part of Malaysia. Dont spend all your time here - the hidden gem truly lies in the countryside. Island, sea side, small cities will give you a new cultural experience. You’ll be surprised to see we Malaysian living harmoniously regardless of our race, faith and religion. Food is a big part of us so be prepared for an exhilarating gastronomical experience. Try local food and be mindful too on the level of spiciness here - it can get really spicy or we say “pedas!”
5. If budget is not an issue, hotels in Malaysia are relatively affordable. For a price of a bed in a typical 8 dorm hostel in central London - you will get a good king size room in a 4 star hotel in Malaysia. Plus buffet breakfast (you’ll be surprised how Malaysian do their buffet here). If you wanna splurge, 150 to 200 euros per night will give you a luxurious one night stay in a 5 star hotel in Kuala Lumpur. Big hotel chains are here and try to find good deals esp those with packages (often found in hotel’s app). If you’re lucky you will get breakfast, dinner and spa in a package for a deal. Boutique hotel is also a good options if you like to try something different and luxurious. Theres plenty of options in big city.
6. Like other major city in the world - beware and be mindful of your belongings. Malaysia is a safe country generally but use your common sense and be street smart. Always be vigilant and keep your valuables safe.
7. Lastly, (most) Malaysians are very friendly. Just ask for help if you need anything. Most Malaysian will be more than happy to help. A lot of us are very skilful in taking good pictures for social media - use them! Just ask if you’re unsure. English is not widely written on signage/ boards etc in certain parts of the country so it can be confusing at times. Your Grab driver can answer all your questions too - just ask!
Hope all of you enjoy your stay here! Everyone are more than welcome to enjoy Malaysian Hospitality 🇲🇾
Selamat Datang.
Welcome to Malaysia. Do enjoy your stay
Beautiful city
Hi David and Sarah, Happy 30th Birthday to David. Good to see you both traveling again and creating videos.
That is amazing that you have that nice little apartment for only $45.00 a night. It looks very clean and nice with nice lighting. You also have access to the gym and pool as well.
That Food Store sounded like it was in a mall so it makes sense that it was expensive. Try going to some independent shops and they will probably be cheaper.
Enjoy your time in Kuala Lumpur. Looking forward to the future videos of your time there.
Welcome to KL, Malaysia. Hope that you guys have had a good time and a pleasant stay.
It is expensive because jaya grocer and village grocer have many imported stuff for expats. Locals purchase from other supermarkets like Aeon, lotus', giant, nsk and wet markets.
dis gusting poor malasian
@@Natalie_Chu-SG wtf is wrong with u
@@kopxpert excuse me…wtf is wrong with you too???
@Natalie_Chu-SG if u are an anti-Malaysian Singaporean, u shouldn't be here to begin with, This is common sense. But I suppose spreading negativity beats out common human sense in your brain
@@kopxpert well, I just stated facts…malasian are generally po or
Have a nice day
It’s simple:
Local products at local supermarkets are affordable at local level prices. Western products at the premium supermarkets like BIG, Village Grocer and Jaya Grocer are at high prices, as most are imported from Auatralia / New Zealand, Japan, South Korea and Europe.
Back in Europe I paid about € 2 for an Italian good quality ricotta, here that same tub will cost me Rm 65, which is a whopping € 13.
And be careful in comparing eating outdoor in food courts and streetfood stalls, it’s notmade with good quality ingredients, the meat is often offal and the oil being used is old. Every now and then ok, but not on a daily basis. Welcome to KL btw.
Also in Malls there are food court which are fun...❤ do go... its a thing...
Hello , nice to meet both of you here. welcome to Msia. Hope you will enjoy here. TQ.✌
Welcome to Malaysia

Hope you two lovebirds have truly enjoyed a pleasant and memorable experience throughout your stay in KL/malaysia. _Terima kasih_ Thanks for visiting! ✌️
Welcome to Kuala Lumpur Malaysia David&Sarah.. have a pleasant stay..
Lovely first impressions guys - well done.
It appears that your location is rather far from Petronas Towers, and the building in front of it is TRX, the new financial center in Malaysia, which has a luxury mall there, and from there you can walk to Bukit Bintang, the most popular site in KL.
This is the advantage staying at Airbnb in Malaysia you can use the facilities free...
Yooo this is amazing!
Nice apartment guys.. Looks great. Did you book it through Airbnb or another short term rental site?
The hotel at the beginning looked stunning!
Thanks for the lovely video. Which hotel did you stay in?
Happy Birthday Oldman......3 decades old
That market is for upscale urban, not your lidl, asda.. or such
Omg. $45 aud ! Wow. That's incredible
nice family🥰🥰
Enjoy the Malay+ Chinese + Indian foods= Malaysia truly Asia crusines while you are in Malaysia! 😋😋😋
Fun fact : Mariah Carey stayed at that exact room you’re staying at the Grand Hyatt
welcome to the country that has the second tallest tower in the world after burj khalifah
Thats wrong way to travel and enjoy malaysia. Wrong path. The right path would be to stay in a cheaper place, shop in a cheaper supermarket, go where the crowds are, eat what they eat, visit the villages, beaches, islands, mountains and the jungles.
no need to visit malasia at all…its dis gusting country 🤮🤮🤮 boring
Who are you to judge others?
Enjoy!!!
