@@LukeMartin Do you know how old that beautiful king lobster would have been? Given it's size I'd say it would have been getting on for 100 years, don't get me wrong, I eat all kinds of seafood, including lobster, but I'd never eat something that was older than my parents.
Btw those “worms” are actually the larvae of a beetle that live inside the trunk of the sago palm tree… known as butod in sabah or ulat mulong in sarawak… i prefer sago in my desserts and stay away from the worms 😅
So happy you are visiting Sabah, my hometown. If you have time, please do go to Kundasang, Mount Kinabalu, and also eat at the Sabah Tea restaurant at Nalapak.
Awesome video! It’s been hard to find many good videos about the Bornean part of Malaysia. I’ll be there next April and this video made me even more excited for my trip!
Luke, these spiny lobsters certainly looked yummy! Panulirusfemoristriga longipes is a common species in Malaysia. Local fishermen consider them in general as red lobster (local term ‘udang karang merah’). Local fishermen usually categorize lobsters according to their color. For example, P ornatus is commonly called blue lobster while P versicolor is known as green lobster. Therefore, it is possible that P emoristriga has been mistaken for P longipes due to their very similar physical appearance, such as coloration and the white spot on their abdomen. However, further study is required to determine whether the species was often being mistaken or that it is rare in Malaysia. Further information about marine biodiversity is strongly linked to the resolve to protect the natural riches of the globe, particularly marine life. Considering that spiny lobsters are target fish industry species, it is crucial for its sustainable fisheries management to acquire biological knowledge.
Local KK-lite here and came here to say, well done lad for trying the Butod! Not many people would. Enjoy the rest of your time in Sabah! Oh, the leaves you couldn’t identify were curry leaves. It leaves a very fragrant taste and is a must when cooking butter sauce on seafood, which is what you had.
I just found your channel and have been binge watching. Really like your formal polite style. One of these days, pls share some tips for us on how to develop “strong” stomach. I will get sick a lot (typhoid, food poisoning, etc..) if I am as adventurous as you. Wish I had your immune system!
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video n for showing your food explorations in d city of Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. D lobster was humongous, n colorful too. Succulent.
It's about USD100 at d market in KK for d 1.8kg lobster, I wonder how much it would cost at a fine dining michelin star restaurant or at a 5 star hotel restaurant around d world.
Thanks for bringing back memories of my visit to Kota Kinabalu! It was a weird trip. I went with my Chinese Malaysian friend and spent the whole trip doing family things with a bunch of overbearing aunts who treated us both like we were 12 ( I was nearly 30 with a full time office job and a mortgage). There were all these complex Chinese family dynamics happening that I couldn't quite grasp and I never quite knew what was going on because of the language barrier. Oh, we're at a Mandarin language church service? Dinner at a cousin's house? A stranger's wedding reception? OK! I barely got to see any sights but it felt like a pretty intimidating, possibly unsafe place to travel without a local, so it may have been for the best, and we did have some incredible meals!
The fried pandan cake looks delicious, really like a cowboy hat！ That lobster is so big, what is the price of that one？ That clam should have been overcooked to make it so hard！ It seems that Malaysia is really a seafood paradise, thank you for sharing！👍🤩🙌
The coconut clam’s meat inherently has a very tough texture. In Vietnam we cut them into very thin slices and either stir fry them or make them into a salad. Very nice video.
Hi Luke... I love your videos... I've seen them all... as I can't afford to travel my self... I'm doing so with you... keep up the good work... always looking forward to your new vids... greetings from Sweden... 😁👍
Hi Luke! You are sooooo brave. I tried eel one time when i was young. We were on a boat cruise and we used to eat at their buffet restaurant everytime we were on their cruise. I felt so brave! I just had to test the eel.... But i didn't like it.... But i was brave....! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 Thanks for another great video! Best wishes from me.
Thank you for coming to Sabah Malaysia and welcome to Sabah. Actually, there are many other very beautiful,interesting and more culture areas in Sabah😍 such as, 1) Taman Negara Kinabalu 2) Kota Kinabalu Wetland Centre 3) Monsopiad Cultural Village 4) Rainforest Discovery Centre 5) Pulau Mabul 6) Kolam Air Panas Poring ( Poring Hot Spring) And more...... if you have any other more time we all welcome you come to sabah again❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ can't wait to see your vlog come to sabah again🤭 #nicevlog #ilikeyouvideo #sabahmalaysia ❤❤❤
Try wan wan for breakfast , try their asam pedas & clear fish soup with konlo mee . Also can try pisang cheese , you can get it at anjung selera or jamal salim sembulan . For fruit try buah tarap , its only available in sabah .
Luke, for best taste of fresh seafood, the best taste of it is either eat it raw or steam it, use the less sauce to destroy the nature of the seafood. That would be the best taste. nothing fancy.....If you dont mind of going out the sea, you should also try deep sea fishing here in KK. Your catch can be made as fresh raw sashimi steaight away. The taste is upmost, nothing can compete even with the seafood you get from the market.
Wow the lobster looks awesome, it's cheap for the full meal , you can't get the same price here in Australia or new Zealand. Probably almost double here.
The sago worm in Sarawak Borneo known as 'Ulat Mulong'. Maybe you should the fried version of it. Taste authenthic. 😋 Thanks for sharing your borneo food experience with us Luke.
Sir, if you at Sabah.. you must go Kundasang to because many places you can visit like, war memorial park Kundasang, desa farm Kundasang, claimb maragang hill, sky bike, hot Spring Ranau
Please go to Kedai Kopi Wan Wan in bundusan KK I believe. Its my family favourite spot to eat when we are in Kota kinabalu. The soup there is so scrumptious and not forget to mention their fried boneless fish. Pls give it a try
hello luke , best way to eat coconut clam should be eaten with kerabu green manggo same like fish @ prawn hinava😆..sabahan bajau tribe never eat that with stir fry sambal..stir fry sambal with coconut clam is a bad idea i think 😆..and it should be slice thin..
Bro , u ought to eat the KamHeong fried lobster or other seafood with rice to complete the asian food taste 😆 . Eating dish alone will be kinda heavy taste on it especially salty /buttery /oily. Gotta mix it with rice , Malaysian like to mix
2kg fresh King Lobster, a football sized coconut clam, seaweed salad and a couple hand-fulls of scallops for $100 AND they cooked everything for you anyway you like ! That price is insane. You will never get that much with $100 in the U.S. I'm sure you had a great time in Malaysia.
Great video! Not sure if we’ll ever get to Borneo but it’s great to see what is there. We’re not picky eaters but the Sago worm would definitely be a challenge.

Awesome content, Luke. You're right back in your sweet spot of authentic food in this video - you do that subject area so, so well. Loving your work!
Thank you so much Hamish!

That lobster RM25/100grams is much more cheaper than in Peninsular Malaysia. Sabah is a real seafood heaven.

, it is safe to travel around the west coast of SABAH, you can be a solo or group traveler, we SABAHAN won't harm you at all
@@Kcchin1969 My friend was giving me the impression it wasn't safe to walk around by yourself. But maybe she was just being paranoid.
@@lauriepenner350 maybe you went during the lahad datu invasion/ abu sayyaf kidnapping period (2010-2015)
The fried pandan cake looks delicious, really like a cowboy hat！
That lobster is so big, what is the price of that one？
That clam should have been overcooked to make it so hard！
It seems that Malaysia is really a seafood paradise, thank you for sharing！👍🤩🙌
About $100 usd for the lobster and all that seafood!
@@LukeMartin What I want to ask is if I only eat that shrimp is it also $100? The price of only eating that lobster? Anyway, thanks a lot!
@@giannishen i had the shrimp/prawn (the one he showed as big as his palm), it was about USD15 for 2 pieces. That was in 2021 (todak waterfront)
@@chrobb99 Wow~ thanks for letting me know！Very cheap！

Luke, what would you consider as Comfort Food?
Taiwanese food
@@LukeMartin That's pretty broad but good enough. Not a bad choice either.
@@LukeMartin For me it's Thai.
3:20 Not Luke soundin like RCMP 😂
Welcome to sabah luke..
I'm trying to look up that coconut clam and I can't find it anywhere, does it go by another name?
I tried too, and it seems to be "Indian volute" or "bailer shell". The Latin name is Melo melo.
لا تحرمنا من⚡ مقاطعك الحلوة❤️💯
Bro just live in South East Asia man, your best stuff seems to come from there
$100 is a lot in Malaysia. Bacchanal Buffet is only 60 USD. But good to see you back in Asia.
You should try cooks sago worms it taste different from the raw one
Oh you’re in malaysia? Hope you get to go to sarawak as well… welcome back

That enormous blue lobster was GORGEOUS; it should not have been eaten.
Great video! Not sure if we’ll ever get to Borneo but it’s great to see what is there. We’re not picky eaters but the Sago worm would definitely be a challenge.
It’s one to remember!
