Malaysian Street Food - $100 KING LOBSTER + Eating Sago Worms in Kota Kinabalu, Borneo!!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ส.ค. 2024
- Welcome to MALAYSIA in 2022!! This time I'm on BORNEO in East Malaysia's Sabah state capital : Kota Kinabalu! We're kicking things off at the Donggongon Weekly Market home to Kadazan traditional cuisine such as "butod" or sago worms. Not for the faint of heart, these grubs can be enjoyed cooked or raw like me.
After our morning at the market a proper lunch was in order. Sabah's iconic Ngiu Chap or beef noodle was on the menu for today at Penampang Ngiu Chap.
To visit Kota Kinabalu without sampling the seafood would be a sin. This city may very well be home to the CHEAPEST seafood I've ever seen. How about 2kg fresh King Lobster, a football sized coconut clam, seaweed salad and a couple hand-fulls of scallops for $100. Have it cooked anyway you like, its guaranteed to taste good. Unless of course your coconut clam also turns into a rubber tire when cooked.

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 😅

Hi Luke! You really have some guts to eat all of this food that you’ve probably never had before! You amaze me! Always lovely to see your videos!
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.
thank you so much for continuing to grow your channel. love, love the content
That lobster RM25/100grams is much more cheaper than in Peninsular Malaysia. Sabah is a real seafood heaven.
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.
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!
@@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.
Another fine episode to watch on a beautiful Sunday morning. Thank you, Luke 👍🏽🇻🇮👍🏽
Glad you enjoyed it
Hi Luke, thank you for coming to Sabah and promote our local food.
Welcome back to Malaysia mate 🇲🇾
Thank you 🙏
Welcome to Philippines!luke
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... 😁👍
I can’t wait to go back home this upcoming Christmas and enjoy all the seafood! So yummmy and glad you enjoyed it all
Finally! You are here! Welcome to Donggongon, Penampang Kota Kinabalu😁😁 My hometown. Yasser.
The fish dinner at the last part of the video looked amazing! That lobster was huge!
Hello Luke, you have a great channel.. Thank you for visiting Sabah and i hope u have a good time here.. Keep up the good work ! 🙏🎉
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!
Can't wait for you to enjoy what our country have to offer to you. Hope you have a good time when you come to Malaysia especially Borneo 😊
@@afiqahazmi9888 thank you so much!! ❤️
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!
Great video Luke. KK is one of my favourite travel destination. Have you hiked up Mount Kinabalu? Amazing experience! Keep these videos coming. X
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.
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.
Wow!! Very amazing. I am Sabahan but I never tried butot. Kudos to you!!!
Wow amazing food Luke, the fruits are amazing I’ve never seen most of those fruits before and the seafood looks so awesome. Love the market
Thanks Angie 😊

Im so proud as a sabahan.. Im subscribing right now
Amazing Street Foods 😋😋😋 Thanks You
Welcome back luke !!!
New subscriber! Good stuff Luke, we will be in KL in less than a week
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！
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.
Welcome to Malaysia luke👍🇲🇾

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.
Welcome back to Malaysia, Luke.
Thanks for visiting Sabah,Kota Kinabalu..come back again next time..👍
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!
, 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)
Excellent vlog...specially smoking part😂❤🙏
Amazing street food market !
Wish this video was available before we visited KK. It's a wonderful place, the ppl so nice, food so so good. Great memories
Welcome to the Land Below the Wind. Enjoy your trip here and maximize your adventure in Sabah.

Mad props for trying everything!
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.
Nice job!
Cool you tried it! There is only one way in finding out if you like stuff or not 😄!
@@LukeMartin Thank you!!😃🍤🍤🦐🦐🦐🦑🦑🦑🦑Have a great week!
@@Enoxix. Thank you!! Ye, i agree. I wish you a great week!! 😃😃🍁🍁🍁🦐🦐✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼Peace!
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.
Love you mate
you are the best..
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 .
Superb 🤩👍
I like your stile for food😋😍😘
great episode Luke! looking forward to the rest of the Sabah adventures
Thanks brother 🙏🇲🇾
waawww lobster nya besar banget , dan semua menunya kelihatan enak
Great food. I love that raw fish. We called it "kinilaw" here in the Philippines. Be safe Luke. Cheers.
Yes very similar to kinilaw but no coconut
here we call it "hinava"
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.
Nice
Oh you’re in malaysia? Hope you get to go to sarawak as well… welcome back
my best bro luke & my best sis thank you for your huge respect against cpec friendship countries lot of love from your best bro viki 💙

Welcome to Sabah
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
Welcome to Sabah Luke..
My mouth is watering ….so big lobster
Welcome to Malaysia
I hope you enjoyed this Malaysian earth
I'm from Malaysia 🇲🇾🇲🇾
看完好想大口吃龍蝦喔🤤
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
Welcome to sabah luke..
Just so you know, I put you up with the best! Mark Weins, Mikey Chen, Sonny from Best Food Review Show!
Mntabb👍
I admired your courage bro. Lol.
$100 is a lot in Malaysia. Bacchanal Buffet is only 60 USD. But good to see you back in Asia.
The coconut clam you had is a baby. Usually it is at least 2kg above. Slice ultra thin, texture is crunchy totally not abalone like.
Syurga makanan laut..
Welcome to Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia. Amazing sea foods
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
hello sir✌️
Come to kota belud sabah. Eat seafood at rikaraya seafood restaurant
Welcome to Sabah Kota Kinabalu 🍺🍺🍺
Have you done vlog in semporna Sabah. Maybe not much for the food but the scenery
welcome to Sabah.
That enormous blue lobster was GORGEOUS; it should not have been eaten.
Brave to wear a white shirt while eating a noodle soup 👏👏👏
welcome LUKE..
omg u r in kk.....enjoy ur stay here luke...
Thanks! 😃
You are so brave to have eaten that fat worm. I have to do it to. Its one of my bucket list
👍❤️😍
I can't complain much when the lobster are huge and maybe just caught..but I might opted for the spiny lobster and mid size red snapper a some shrimp..
