@@BingoandBinew I wonder if you guys have tried nasi kandar, one of the most popular food in Penang, it's white rice with your choice of curry dishes. 😀
so nice of them to preserve their old buildings gives it that character and ambiance we don't get from steel concrete and glass modern buildings... Jon's Jawa Mee is interesting with is it bean curd and perhaps some sort of glutten/ crispy topping or tempeh? Linda, that curry mee is delicious with those small clams are very flavorful... yah! Coke and chips ! fave midnight snack! ...
@@allancristophe6810 Yes! The old buildings are so beautiful, and the fresh coat of paint really makes them pop! 😍 Everything we ate was so interesting with unique flavours! 😋 Chips and Coke are such a snack staple! 😊
That Mee Jawa ( Java mee) is a traditional Malay noodle dish however its a Chinese vendor so its a Chinese style mee Jawa . Mee Jawa is also Mee Rebus (very traditional Malay) but Javanese style. Therefore its Chinese style Javanese style Mee rebus. The base is supposed to be beef broth and sweet potato. The other one is Mee Kari which is a simpler and cheaper version of Laksa lemak (Peranakan cuisine). Mee Kari use chicken stock instead of prawn stock for Laksa lemak and the other ingredients is mostly the same. There are other Malay noodle dish Mee Aceh ( province of Indonesia) and Mee Bandung (another Indonesian province) different from Mee rebus. Then there's Malay style char kway teow (soupy version of char kway teow which is traditionaly dry stir fry).
@@BingoandBinew ooh thats a tough one i like them all it just depends on my mood i guess. Since Malaysia is multicultural do try the same dish done by different races i think you will get a different experience and different variation taste and flavor. For example many Chinese Malaysian use lard for char kway teow but the Malays don't use lard.
Next time you come can go other food court like red garden food court, good all food court, Pisa food court, fisherman wharf food court Various type of foods that so tempting 😊
@Bingo and Binew, u may like to try out foods sold at the Cecil Street Market food court. Go at around 11am. You'll be fascinated. Good day to both of you.
About your drink... I can totally understand your confusion & frustration! Let me walk you through the "history" of it. Used to be our kopi or teh were mixed with condensed milk AND sugar thus making them super sweet. Over the years when Malaysians were getting more health conscious, partly due to high cases of diabetes, we started to ask for "kurang manis" (meaning less sweet), so the vendors these days reduce the sweetness of your drinks by cutting the sugar & condensed milk but add some evaporated milk to maintain the consistency. That's why at some stalls, they will ask you your preferred "sweetness", just tell them you want "normal" & they will know what to do...😄
I agree, all of the places I ordered ais kopi in Malaysia it came with milk + sugar (or condensed milk deliciousness!). Once I ordered from a more expensive espresso place and and it came without milk or sugar 🤦♀️lol I feel like the bungkus drinks you got were not fancy, typical malay kopi/teh so should have condensed milk! 🤔
@@Jesswords Hi Jess! Is it your favourite kind of chips? Or is there something else you like better? 👀 And we’re so happy to hear you’re enjoying our market hauls! We find grocery shopping so interesting everywhere we go! 😊
@BingoandBinew ketchup is one of my top five. Any type of spicy chips is my absolute favorite kind. Thank you both for continuing to work so hard creating fun and positive content for us to enjoy and learn.

For most iced drinks, I'll make sure the first sip doesn't have the straw at the bottom, most drinks are meant to be just nice when half of the ice is melted, so it will taste strong when freshly made. Putting the straw near the top for the first sip is cos ice floats and the melted ice stays near the top, helping to dilute the strong taste. Conversely, leaving the drink out until all the ice melts makes it too diluted and taste like colored water
From wikipedia… Origin Just like many Asian noodle recipes, it is thought that this noodle was influenced by Chinese noodle soup.[2] The spice however, is more suited to Javanese taste, which is more spicy and slightly sweet. The name suggests that this dish originated from Java, Indonesia, or created by Javanese people. In Indonesia, mie jawa thought was originated from Central Java area, and often associated with the royal city of Yogyakarta.[1] Mie jawa vendors are commonly found in Javanese cities and towns, with major concentration in Yogyakarta, Klaten, Wonosobo, Semarang and Solo. The dish also can be found sold by street vendors using cart, either mobile/travelling or stationed in busy street, in other Indonesian major cities including Jakarta, Bandung and Surabaya. In Malaysia, it is believed that the dish was brought by the Javanese Malaysian community during the early 19th-century in Malaysia.[3][4] The recipe of mee Jawa in Malaysia is also differ by the addition of sweet potato-base sauce into the dish. mee Jawa mobile hawkers sold it by carrying two baskets with long wooden sticks on their shoulder and cycling by bicycle from one place to another. Not to mention Malaysia has tropical weather which sometimes has drastic heatwaves from time to time. Despite that, this dish was still sold anyhow.[5]
all noodles could be traced back to China but really Malay noodle dishes has a distinct flavor profile different from Chinese noodles. Just like say mee goreng mamak. Indian-muslim style fried noodles distinct from typical lo mein or even malay noodle dishes. Do give it a try.
I realized that you noticed the worker pull chairs at food court loud noise. That is some behaviour that is so annoyed about foreign worker doing in Malaysia, not all but mostly.

In KL and other parts of Malaysia its commonly known as ABC instead ..only northern states called it ice-kacang
