Better late than never. Sorry for the delay everybody, been on a bus with no WIFI for 19 hours. Also, in my video I think I wrote "Putu Mayang".

Don't be apologetic about the mis-spelling... The spirit of Malaysian food is to mix up different ingredients from various cultural influences... And despite the common names of the food that you are familiar with, each community and each locale may give the dishes a different name... For example, laksa means different dish depending on where you are... So, it's perfectly ok to mess up the names a little...
@@dennisyap2143 Hey, I really appreciate that! I just don't think anybody spells it "mayang" so I wanted to clarify for people who may want to research it more and learn more. That way they wouldn't be confused! Really appreciate your comment!
In English we called them string hoppers... the usual way is to eat with brown sugar and shredded coconut.. but it also can be eaten with curried lentils (dhall) or even any variety of curries (eg: chicken curry, fish curry).. it’s delish!
I could have sent this in a private message but I want your fans to know, I suffer from extreme anxiety and today has been a bad one but watching your videos (even though I’ve watched them 10 times over) has really cheered me up! You make great content and your personality is so endearing.Thank you. 🙏🏼
This is the realist message ever! I cannot tell you how happy that makes me to hear that I, could bring a smile to your face. If you ever need anything feel free to message me via email, IG, or whatever you would like! Wishing you the best:)
What stand out for me in your channel is not only the colourful food adventures but also hints of your nice characters scattered here and there like what you said about filming in public places earlier, which make your video yours with some unique characters. Keep it up man, kudos!
The biryani and mee sotong looks fantabuluos for me...😍😍😍 Love being Msian cos you can eat all great Chinese food, Malay food , Indian food by not traveling far. Oh, not to forget all the indonesian and others vendors in Malaysia too. Yummy!!!!!
@@Macoi24 What's the name of the place where you ate the Biryani , Max ? I am from Penang , but left almost four decades ago to work in K L . Maybe , the place wasn't there yet .
U eat using ur hand just like a local.. Its a good thing, many foreigners don't do that, so it's hard for them to fully enjoy local delicacies as many of them were made to be enjoy and eaten using a hand.
I'm beginning to think Max is actually an Asian Dude in disguise. Never seen any foreigner feels so comfortable with that much variety of Asian cuisines let alone an Arkansan. 🎭🎭
One of the best food channel I found. My gosh, ever since morning I found your first video, I am still watching now at 7pm. Can’t skip can’t stop lol 😂 with normal playback speed some more. Forwarded your video to number of my friends. U are amazing (Most importantly keep them for our next food trip hehe)
Omg that had to be briyani heaven... Never seen so many add-on choices. The putu mayam looked incredible... Would have had 6 packets to go since there was no cendol lol
Miami 2KL Hahaha! How nice that you recognized me 😀😀😀. I love watching travel and food videos on YT, even the places I’ve already been 😂😂😂. You always learn something new ❤️. All the best!
On behalf of fellow people in this timezone, I am glad that Max posted this during or after our lunch time, and NOT after our dinner and before our bed time.
Max, I love the way you rhyme BRIYANI, BRIYANI, BRIYANI. Wow how privileged Asians are to savour the best of best, when it comes to FOOD. Here in the west, the Indian restaurants can get away for serving crappy BRIYANI. Most of the restaurants are run by Pakistanis or Bangladeshis. They stir fry briyanis to the order with plain boiled rice with sauce, chicken and plenty of red carcinogenic dye. To the horror of horrors they charge 115 Malaysian ringgit or 25 euros for garbage briyanis and can get away with murder. Max, thanks for a mouthwatering food spree.
Yeah true, this is because we are blessed to have multiple races. Malay, Indian, Portuguese, Chinese, Brits and few others who came all around the world. We shared and united our flavours Australia is becoming like Malaysia too. I love their food and how the mix the flavors up...... Beautiful
Watching the first I missed when you where in Penang. Good idea to wear black food splatters don’t show🤭🤔🤭. Tunnel vision on those awesome place. Whoa aromatic noodle dish with blood cake. Young coconut for refreshing drink and the coconut meat to follow. Nice place to enjoy eating.hmmm. That ice cold drink very good. Let eat. Great blog Max.....thank you. Two more blog to watch.🤗🤗🤗. Fantabulous Penang
Love your channel! I managed to make it to the mee sotong stall at the esplanade and I was not disappointed....should have order two plates though.....but that bamboo Bryani looks amazing!
Nice video...looking at your reactiom to those dishes make me want to try it..even though im at penang but some that places i never been before...are u still in penang??
Max, you eat like a local! The chee cheon fun that you had at Genting cafe is another version prepared with peanut sauce. The authentic Penang version is prepared with prawn paste. Recommend that you try chee cheong fun at the Jelutong morning market stall for your next Penang visit, the sauce mixture is superb. I have tried several versions of Ipoh chee cheong fun, none can compare with Penang version. Most Penangites will insist the version with prawn paste is the best!
Fully agree with you the CCF is delicious. It is near my place & I go there frequently. You should make another trip to Penang and try out other delicacies that you missed during your recent visit, such as nasi kandar, murtabah, oyster omelette, popiah, rojak, fried koay kak, coconut shake, Penang peranakan food (which is different from the Melaka version), ccf with prawn paste ........😛😛😛
You are just absolutely amazing, being able to finish a plate of that mee sotong. (Especially after that big briyani serving) I couldn't even finish half the plate. Its soooo hot! You're more Malaysian now I think. 😂
Hi Max - welcome to Penang! did you manage to try Joez Coconut Jelly while you were in the Timesquare georgetown vicinity? It's unique to Penang due to their secret technique to make the jelly without any gelatin or agar agar!

Ayyyy, glad you liked! Yeah, just hard to take up so much room when I am sure people just want to enjoy their afternoon!
One of the greatest compliments you can give to a country is when you love their food! Thank you, Max for loving Penang food. From a Penang girl.
haha absolutely in love with it...I will be back forsure!
The biryani and mee sotong looks fantabuluos for me...😍😍😍
Love being Msian cos you can eat all great Chinese food, Malay food , Indian food by not traveling far. Oh, not to forget all the indonesian and others vendors in Malaysia too. Yummy!!!!!
haha not far? you mean on the same street😂😂😂
We Malaysian love love mamak food! Especially nasi ganja in Ipoh
haha got that one coming up in a future video!
@@Macoi24 great, thx for the update.
Awesome drone transition while you were talking. The food in this episode looks amazing!
thanks bro!
Thanks for making penang food look and sound fantabulous!!! Lol
Penang food is one of the kind.
Max, love your videos... Keep it up mate, I bet one day your channel would be prominent amongst others! Peace out...
we can only hope and keep working at it!
I'm always excited to your new videos everyday...keep it up!

I watched this video on my big screen tv and wow felt like I was with you my mouth watering yummy food. Thanks for sharing with us loved it.
Awesome!that is the feeling I am going for!
That bamboo biryani looks legit mouth watering! Gosh I wonder if I can get that here in NYC? I’m definitely looking into it! Thanks for sharing!
Hmmm, idk! Hit up, Food and Footprints, they know the NYC food scene so well.
Max McFarlin Got it I will thank you :)
Mee Sotong looks excellent - SAWCED up!
Oh wow that young coconut drink would be so refreshing, I love biryani it’s fabulous and wow yours looked amazing 😍🔥🙌🏼
it really really was!
why everything looks so good and delicious...
That banana leaf biryani spot looks amazing! So many great dishes to choose from
yeah and I had bad FOMO
@@Macoi24 What's the name of the place where you ate the Biryani , Max ? I am from Penang , but left almost four decades ago to work in K L . Maybe , the place wasn't there yet .
U eat using ur hand just like a local.. Its a good thing, many foreigners don't do that, so it's hard for them to fully enjoy local delicacies as many of them were made to be enjoy and eaten using a hand.
have to use the hands to fully enjoy. it is a must
Tourists is more accurate than foreigners
only 1% local using hand.... so what like local
The lemonade looks good & refreshing
very refreshing drink
You’re so kind and very considerate of others feelings. 👏 👍 (referring to not filming at that place that serves oysters). Love your personality!
Hey, I am glad you understand! Just don't want to make others feel uncomfortable. We all are there to have a good meal and good time.
I really love your video and see hiw you really enjoy the food. Keep rocking
Aduii kenapa la aku pergi tengok video makanan nie pagi2 buta..lapar pulak😭😭😭
🤣
@@kala5766 😁
Wow, Max, what a yummy street foods tour in Penang , mouth watering dishes. You are just amazing guy!
I'm beginning to think Max is actually an Asian Dude in disguise. Never seen any foreigner feels so comfortable with that much variety of Asian cuisines let alone an Arkansan. 🎭🎭
I was definitely born in the wrong part of the world.
The most fantabulous hawker street and eating spot in malaysia. The hidden gem .
Its penang.
welcome back to malaysia.enjoy the food.
One of the best food channel I found. My gosh, ever since morning I found your first video, I am still watching now at 7pm. Can’t skip can’t stop lol 😂 with normal playback speed some more.
Forwarded your video to number of my friends. U are amazing (Most importantly keep them for our next food trip hehe)
dangggg. tht looks marvelous. u make my mouth watering. keep it coming sir. 👍👍👍
Sooo delicious....nasi briyani...want to go try this
this one is oohhhh so good!
The way you eat the briyani it makes me smile idk why haha keep it up!
Omg that had to be briyani heaven... Never seen so many add-on choices. The putu mayam looked incredible... Would have had 6 packets to go since there was no cendol lol
hahah man I put that putu mayang down so fast...They just disappeared haha
Everything you eat just made me mouth watering.. I miss my home town food so much
Beautiful foods very nice healthy foods very spices foods in Malaysian fresh foods spices foods very good thanks
Oh Lord, that bamboo briyani is fantabolous, Max! Gonna get it during my next trip to Penang. Not having the oyster omelette again this time round?
hahahaha I got it off camera:)
So much fun watching you eat 😉
The Penang Curry Mee where you had your chee cheong fun is quite good too...
My favourite is kuantan road market curry mee.
it is? Dang, I should have tried!
@@cy97 Same family, if I'm not mistaken.
That briyani, wow. Salivating here
Hey Max you're one of my favorite food vloggers on TH-cam. Videos and the food just keeps getting better each time!
I think that is because it is Penang! That city is crazy! Really appreciating the love and support though!
Ha..ha..you go bro Hameed pata Mee sotong like i suggest..ha..ha..amazing!
Love that they included some coconut meat in the pouch
Like your consideration and cultural sensitivity for fellow diners at 4:58..good etiquette which I must say I am impressed !
🙏🙏🙏
Putu Mayam...the nice vermicili india style
The bamboo biryani is something I need to search out next time I'm there. Never heard of it until now!
Yeah! There is a really famous bamboo briyani restaurant from Klang. They even have a branch in JB, but like I said, this one is family owned!
Hi Max!! Wow! Everything looks so good! I can’t believe I missed all these places in Penang 😭😭😭😭😭
reasons to go back:)
Max McFarlin You bet! Penang was a great surprise in Malaysia and we’ll most likely be back 😉
Renata Pereira great to see u here!!!! Amazing how the foodies and travel vloggers connect! wish Gordon n u well and safe travels!
Miami 2KL Hahaha! How nice that you recognized me 😀😀😀. I love watching travel and food videos on YT, even the places I’ve already been 😂😂😂. You always learn something new ❤️. All the best!
Pantai jerjak.. I always buy coconut water from that Pakcik's stall
that exact one?
@@Macoi24 Yup! ☺️ But I never try that bamboo briyani.
man, it really hit the spot!
@@Macoi24 haha yeah I live near that place
Nurul Nadhrah very nice!
Man that Briyani looks like a killer. Also the Curry mee looks like nothing we get over here in KL. Penang is the ultimate food haven. Unbeatable!
penang, is cray cray forsure.
Fantabulous!!!!! 😏
How right you are Max!
On behalf of fellow people in this timezone, I am glad that Max posted this during or after our lunch time, and NOT after our dinner and before our bed time.
haha I like to mix it up
I’m having my dinner at a restaurant but looking at you eat I’m going there on this Saturday!! Food food food !!! 😂🤣🤣🤣
Love your videos!!! Get a buddy along on your future trips for some extra opinions and suggestions.
Maxi The way you eat with your hands, its pleasure to watch.
my favorite!
I almost watched your episode Max...! Love u ❤️❤️❤️

mannn, I wish I could take credit for the Briyani song, but . I heard a hawker doing it in Singapore and it has stuck with me ever since!
@@Macoi24
Fair play max.
Malaysia is one of the country that got a lot of good food... plus clean.
Yeah true, this is because we are blessed to have multiple races. Malay, Indian, Portuguese, Chinese, Brits and few others who came all around the world. We shared and united our flavours
Australia is becoming like Malaysia too. I love their food and how the mix the flavors up...... Beautiful
Briyani rice...so delicious...you update the video always when i am at work....😂😂😂😂
haha that is evil of me
@@Macoi24 nope...i am okay with that's...i like your vlogs so much

Max is a fan of curry
Max, love your video, all the food is delicious, uniq. I love Chinnese food, India food 👌👍❤. I can't wait for looking dinner now, 😀 12.20 am here.
Biryani Bamboo looks like something worth trying
After watching a bunch your vids..this bamboo beriani makes me push subs button..keep it on mate
Ayy, glad it did the job! haha Welcome!
Wow its impressive that you can enjoy that mee sotong... its flavours are so strong even for me a malaysian!
I love strong flavors so it was perfect for me
Totally love how you explain the food you eat. The texture, taste, fragrance all. Very food scientist lah you 😂
haha, that is really nice of you to say! I will take the food scientist title haha:)
That's a lot of food in a very short period of time. Not even dark and you 5 dishes lol. Great vlog as always max
So cool bro. you immersed in the culture and ate with your hands..Salute!!!!

Max! Did you know how huge that plate of biryani was on our screen!? It can feed like two pax! You shared with anyone?

Hi max.. Y're killing me.. With the way u eat n explain.😋😋😋😋😀😀😀😀😀😀😀I'm a penangties...yet i haven't been to the bamboo beriani 😭😭😭😭

sorry I have already left. but I am sure I will be back
I miss Malaysian food, you make me droolllll.....In USA, I can only be vegan+seafood eater....food so bland here.....Can't wait to be back. home
The first dish you ate rice crepe / roll I love eating those. When I was a kid I like to unroll them so it can catch all the sauce lol
I like it, increasing the amount of sauce you get.
Max, you eat like a local!
The chee cheon fun that you had at Genting cafe is another version prepared with peanut sauce. The authentic Penang version is prepared with prawn paste. Recommend that you try chee cheong fun at the Jelutong morning market stall for your next Penang visit, the sauce mixture is superb.
I have tried several versions of Ipoh chee cheong fun, none can compare with Penang version. Most Penangites will insist the version with prawn paste is the best!
I also had the uncle doing the CCF on Kimberely street in the morning. Thoughts?
Fully agree with you the CCF is delicious. It is near my place & I go there frequently.
