Your video level is like national discovery, which is awesome
Assalamualaikum brother 👋🏼
Wow! Thank you! We love the feedback 😃
Please subscribe to stay tuned for more videos. We’d love to hear your recommendations too! ✨🇲🇾
Correction. The China town name is Jalan Petaling which is literally translated to Petaling Street. Jalan = Street in Malay. Meanwhile Petaling Jaya is a suburb next to Kuala Lumpur about 15-16km away. :) Jalan Alor (Alor Street) originally where most Malaysian Chinese eateries are but now also dominated with Thai cuisines and other South East Asians. For authentic traditional Malay cuisines, Kampung Bahru is the place which is a stone away from KLCC which you can get there by crossing the highway taking pedestrian Saloma Bridge (Pintasan Saloma).
Ohh thanks for this! How embarrassing 😳. Apologies if we caused any offence. We definitely have to go and check out Kampung Bahru, any recommendations there for us to visit?
Kampung baru nasi lemak wanjo
Thats correct. Jalan means street, jalanraya is road but often mentioned as jalan as well.
Petaling street was the route leading to Petaling district, which is now a city known as Petaling Jaya or P.J.
Same goes to many other roads in KL. Jalan Ipoh is leading to Ipoh up north.
Its like the road from London going to Brighton would be named as Brighton road.
@OurJourneyToSuccess pls don't apologise, it's okay.. human not perfect.. love your narrative so pro.

Was there in 94 for honeymoon ,so much has changed ,you have awoken our desire to return to this beautiful amazing country, May Allah reward you for your ambassadorial efforts. Love from South Africa
Alhamdulillah! Wow 94 yes we can imagine a lot has changed. But the Petronas towers still look as incredible as ever! Thank you so much for your kind words. Astyn is actually also from South Africa, Durban! 🇲🇾🇿🇦
Thank you so much, i admired the way you address closest to Net Geo really professional👍
Beautiful video ... Ma'shaa'Allah ... 🤩
My favaourite place for brisk walk ..never bored me ...super cool.and nice scenery
It’s really beautiful! So blessed to have such incredible nature, right in the heart of the city! 😃 one of the very many reasons why we absolutely LOVE KL! 🇲🇾
Had to pause the video and check that I wasn’t watching David Attenborough’s our planet! 😂 Also those wagyu steak skewers look so good!! I’m heading straight there when I’m next in KL! 😋
They were so good! A bit fatty, but apparently that's where all the flavour is!
☺ I'm absolutely captivated by this video! The perfect blend of travel, delicious cuisine, and a David Attenborough-esque narration creates an incredibly engaging experience. I find myself yearning for more content like this. It's a delightful combination that truly resonates with me. Please, keep them coming!
Wow, thank you!
Sweating? Good.. now you could skip the gym for several weeks. But yes, always remember to keep hydrating.
Its nice to have summer every day and for the entire year right?
Its single piece clothings all the time, never to worry about winter jackets.
Absolutely, the warm weather here in Malaysia does bring a different pace to our routine. Alhamdulillah, we're adjusting to the perpetual summer, and you're right about the convenience of not needing winter jackets! 😄 It's a different kind of fitness journey with the everyday warmth.

We'd love to hear your recommendations - do you have any favourite spots or hidden gems in Malaysia that you think we should visit next? Your suggestions are always welcome! 😊🌟
Salam, just be careful next time for food, check the halal logo first before eating. Usually Malay & Indian Muslim food (mamak) is ok, but Chinese and Indian food needs to see the halal label issued by JAKIM (Malaysian Authority Board)
I hope the satay they eaten was Halal because the wrapper was in chinese, normally it’s not Halal.
Another thing, not all foods sold in Jalan Alor, Jalan Petaling, Kuala Lumpur and Malaysia are “Halal”. You need to be careful in your foodies adventure.
Thank you for the recommendation!
As seasoned travellers, we always make sure to check for the halal certification!
We’d love to hear your recommendations on places to go/eat! 🇲🇾😃
Thank you for the recommendation! We always make sure to double check for the certification! 😃 we’d love to know if there is anywhere you’d recommend for us to try out 🇲🇾
@@OurJourneyToSuccessyeh mate becareful with Chinese street food they might selling pork as their ingredients. If all Chinese their clients just be cautious. U need to ask the seller first. Halal?
Wow! It looks amazing! Can't wait to plan a trip there. Thanks for sharing your discoveries and experiences.
Our pleasure!

Absolutely!! We are just waiting for the baby to get a little bigger and then we’ll be exploring all of the beautiful cities Malaysia has to offer!
We’re so undecided about where to go first though!
Let us know what you’d love to see! 😃
Next try go to Tapak Urban Street Dining Jalan Ampang Kuala Lumpur 😊
Dekat jalan alor banyak makanan chinese tidak halal... kalau you nak cari makanan halal chinese you kena tanya halal or not 🙏 saya berharap next time you hati hati bila beli makanan di kedai chinese 🙏
Thank you so much for the recommendation and the important reminder! We'll definitely check out Tapak Urban Street Dining in Jalan Ampang on our next outing. 😊 Also, we appreciate your advice on checking for halal options when visiting Chinese food stores.

@@OurJourneyToSuccess Alhamdulillah.. glad to hear that, aamiin
Many vendors are not local Malaysians. Yes, be careful especially when walking in streets that motorcycles pass by close to you. There are rising cases of snatch theft. We like Sunway Pyramid, and Sunway Medical centre is pretty good. The juicy vlog has a very good video on the place called "Staying in Las Vegas of Malaysia".
In Malaysia, 11 am - 4 pm is time to be inside. Unless you are fully acclimated to the weather.
😅 We love being outdoors! Having lived in Dubai for MANY years, the heat doesn’t bother us too much!

Did you check the stalls there if it’s halal or not before you eat or not? Because some of the stalls there are not halal..
Assalamualikum! Yes, we did. As seasoned travellers, we have learned to always double check! 😅

10:29 Petaling Jaya, commonly called "PJ" by a local is a city in Petaling District in the state of Selangor. meanwhile Petaling Street or in Malay language, Jalan Petaling also known as China Town is a street in Kuala Lumpur. I just want to let you know that Petaling Jaya and Petaling Street are two different places :)

From 9 am your sun burning like laser beam!!!
Haha we have noticed this! Not many people out in the daytime 😃 we love the sun!
Thank you for the recommendation! We also love seafood and will definitely try some local seafood out! We’re hoping to do a video on this too of all of out favourite places to eat 😃🇲🇾

It was in this Malay world that "India" or East Indian "Orang Utan" meant people of the jungle, not ferocious wild animals. Americans or white people in the cowboy era called themselves owning guns would travel or worst the wild west. It's interesting when they become tourists seeking natural beauty, happiness, hygiene etc. kind people, greenery and good weather.
Thank you for watching brother 🙏🏼🇲🇾
So many great foods in Malaysia. Take your time to taste it all and while you try the foods, pls mindful with your body weight change :p

Salam Alaikum, I am a new follower! I Canadian, having a full time gov career who's fed up and seriously considering to move to KL. I want to start my new journey from there. I want to do just like you, videos, inspirational, and sharing my experience. May I ask you what business are you in? Are you doing this full time? Is someone helping you with video editing? I am too technical, do you recommend that I learn this skill or you think it's best to hire help if it's affordable.
Hi , assalamualaikum u should try sate @night market there
Waalaikumsalam 🇲🇾 Terima Kasih! We love a night market! Where is this located?
Hi, guys. be more cautious and prudent when you eat at Jalan Alor. Most of the stalls there are operated by non-muslim thus are non-halal food. The wagyu(?) you ate did you ascertain first it's halal? They must have halal certificate by JAKIM if they want to sell it to Muslim. If you ask the vendor is their foofd is halal take it with a grain of salt.
Thank you for the advice! We always make sure to check for the halal certification beforehand 😊 Do you know of any more halal friendly food markets we can check out?
Is it your home or your second home? It' s an important question as many people found out during Covid shut down.
How is possible to live there? We are a muslim family with 3 kids. May Allah bless you for informations.
Salaam u alaikum,
Can you please make a video on the visa/immigration process?

As a Malaysian Muslim...I find it very hard to find halal foods in Jalan Alor...even if they say it is halal, it is still questionable...most of them are not even Malaysians..if you ask them whether it is halal or not they will just simply "yes it is"...please avoid this place at all cost...if you are looking for real halal street foods, please go to Kpg Baru or any malay pasar malam (night market)...there lots of them in KL trust me...Taman Tun Dr Ismail will have the biggest Ramadhan Bazaar...
Thank you for your advice 😊 we are very careful and many people have already warned us. We are so excited to try to Ramadan Bazaar!
Thank you for watching, please subscribe and of course let us know if you have any recommendations for us 🤲🏼😊
exactly, I had the same thought too....Jalan Alor are mostly foods places for tourist and most of the vendor are not even Malaysian....please be cautious my Muslim friend....ask locals around k....
May Allah guide yr journey to be always at the right path, hallallan toiyibban.aamiin...
Good 🎉, 🙏🇮🇩 im TH-camr Indonesia #radenpendy . To you 🙏

You might enjoy a visit to the Islamic Arts Museum.
Thank you for the suggestion! Visiting the Islamic Arts Museum sounds like a wonderful idea. We're always eager to explore and learn more about the rich Islamic culture and heritage in Malaysia. We'll definitely consider including it in our future adventures. If you have any other recommendations or specific places you'd like us to feature in our videos, please feel free to let us know. 😊🕌📷🇲🇾
check the food sold by non muslim.
The bun and meat in the skewer might be a mix of pork.
Thank you for the advice and recommendation! We always make sure to check for Halal certification first before eating from street vendors 🙏🏼
Just to be safe next time go to Muslim stalls. Many dont even go to Hailam resataurant for not being sure of the food being halal or the kitchen utensils are being used to cook non halal food, We are what we eat.
Chk halal pls..
We are always very careful to make sure there is a halal certification 😊🤲🏼
try to avoid eating in Jalan Alor.. most of the food there is not for Muslims.
Thank you for the recommendation! We did make sure to check for the halal certification when we went!
We’d love to hear your recommendations on any places to go eat and things to do/see 🇲🇾
Kampung baru is better next to saloma bridge 💯% halal
I think that Wagyu beef !!! Is Not HALAL FOOD,EVEN ITS FROM NON MUSLIM BUSINESSES THE WORKER IS NOT MUSLIM,THE BEEF IMPORTED FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY MAYBE JAPAN AND WITHOUT ISLAMIC OBSERVATION!!! IF YOU LOVE YOUR CREATOR ,LOVE YOUR SELF AND LOVE YOUR RELIGION YOU NEED TO BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU EAT!!!
Thank you for the recommendation. We always ensure to check for the halal certification beforehand and that particular vendor of course was certified 😊🙏🏼
Jalan alor food any not halal for muslim. At kampung baru kl, any halal food and restoran for muslim
I agree. Non muslims would not bother serving halal food unless when the target market is huge like Nandos or The Chicken Rice Shop
Ohhh thanks for this, we did ask them all if it was Halal before having anything. But yes we need to check out more Halal food markets! Terih Makasih!
@@OurJourneyToSuccess hi again. Many of non Muslims in Malaysia have poor understanding of halal. To them as long as it's chicken or beef and no pork means halal. Even though not slaughtered the Islamic method.
And they don't bother much either with the ingredients like what type of oil or sauce (with lard or without). 😁
We Muslims have play our part.
@@fauzanriez9472 exactly....most of the vendor also not even malaysian....they work for the non muslim bosses as their labour are cheaper....bosses dont even border to get all the supplies fr halal supplier since actually the market there are mostly for tourist that usually non muslim....we malaysian muslim usually dont buy street food fr non muslim unless they display the halal logo on the stalls or at the packaging...
Malaysian is a multi racial country that allow selling non halal foods at certain area and jln Alor are one of them....
please be cautious my dear muslim friend...take care..
95% food at Jalan Alor is not halal, you both have to be careful... and both of you definitely had eaten non halal beef kind of satay. always asked muslim b4 eating or going places. always looking for Islamic authorized halal logo from JAKIM at the eating place(s). be careful the non muslim sellers or hawkers don't care either you are muslim or not and always misleading as long as their have some sales.
Terima Kasih for your advice! We always make sure to check for the halal certification!
