Village park nasi lemak...hav u try it sir? or maybe u can find aunty's homecook nasi lemak,u will be amazed the different in each component...they cook from their heart with so much love and passion...its the best for me....
Mr Steve, the way you dug in the chicken into the sambal it shows that you are a different level of Mat Salleh. Majority of the european cant handle sambal which I think they miss something which they dont realise. I like your video and the way you describe the food. Done Subscribe.
One of the most under rated food are the Peranakan food which have a very distinct and unique hybridization of ancient Chinese culture with the local cultures of the Nusantara region. Very few travelers are reviewing it and I think you should try it.
I think that food looks great. For chicken breast, it's moist looking. For the price you paid, it was well worth it. The corn cooked that way also looks good. Everything is a feast for the senses. Cheers, Steve and Michelle! ✌️
@@wanryu6719 hi, our main curries are like little bit spicy but not like indian spicy. and if you wanna see furniture watch srilankan village girl channel , ape amma like some food channels.
Does anyone here know why Wanjo does not provide peanuts? Peanuts are part of the standard ingredients. I watched a couple of TH-cam videos on this place. All of them show no peanuts available. Cases of peanuts allergy before?
Sorry, I disagree that peanuts are part of standard ingredient for nasi lemak. It only become a standard ingredient now because many just follow. Peanuts and anchovies were not served on nasi lemak in Penang years ago, and I love my nasi lemak that way, without anything crunchy such as peanuts and anchovies. Now when I order nasi lemak I have to specially request them not to add any peanuts and anchovies on the plate.
Sadly you kind of stand alone Judy, every reference I can find says it is served with both? And to be honest, you are hard pressed to find it sold without either. So while you may say it's not traditional, you stand a better chance of removing pasta from the Italian diet than Peanuts and Anchovies from Malaysias National Dish.. It might be safer to say, you don't like it perhaps.. Unless you have some concrete reference to say it's not part of the dish but even then, what will that change? In many ways, your own suggestion that you have to always request them "not to add" it probably sinks your own statement.. ? I appreciate your thoughts though.. Any one else want to (politely) chime in?
For me nasi lemak that are sold at small stalls beside the street always taste better because they are home cooked😊 but they are usually sold in the morning time around 7 - 10/11 am. Quite hard to find them in the afternoon or evening.
Yes I have had a few but they have been very disappointing so far. The rice has been plain with no coconut, in my opinion this is not really Nasi Lemak but rather rice and sambal.. I've kind of given up finding a good one..
@@Steve-Owens yup true not all are good , have to try n error sometimes. Btw u can try nasi lemak Tanglin , it is good 😊 and if u saw small packets of nasi lemak wrapped in banana leave they are usually delicious because the aroma of the banana leave will make the nasi more flavourful and fragrant
@@muhammadabdulwahab4900 oh okay maybe the quality already downgraded through time depends on the chef or many factors. but i love the nasi lemak at my hometown near my house, the seller is an old aunty but i cannot suggest it to @steve owens because it js far from KL😅
@@Steve-Owens don't give up, sometimes you'll find a gem from food stall.. You'll be surprised some simple cheap nasi lemak wrapped in banana leaves can taste so good
Ah man, these videos are so bad for my waistline 😁 Go steady with those sweet teas, there are an unbelievable amount of calories in condensed milk. Another great video, glad you guys are having a great time there 😊👍❤️
@@Steve-Owens As a Malaccan, I can't rely find a decent Nasi Lemak in KL tbh. Most, if not all of the sambal are too sweet. My go to ones in Malacca are : 1) Restaurant Ming Huat 2) Nasi Lemak Ujong Pasir. You should plan a trip to Malacca.
If you like Malay food, I recomend "Sambal Hijau" in Sungai Penchala, near TTDI. They have more than 6 different sambal itself and almost all kind of Malay puddings like sago with gula melaka etc. But a bit pricy.
It’s good to see you enjoying your Nasi Lemak. Yes, peanuts would have topped it perfectly, but the coconut in the rice made you happy (I get happy with cucumbers :))
I like to try every stall that sell nasi lemak becouse everytime i eat nasi lemak from the diffrent stall or restaurant it will diffrent and for sure peanut a must be..next time u can try paru masak sambal or lung sambal in your nasi lemak..my favourite
Hi Steve so happy that you love Nasi Lemak, you can get some good delicious ones in Petaling Jaya Damansara Items, called Village Park Restaurant at No 5, Jalan SS21/37. they are always full house, they also have variety of dishes to eat with Nasi Lemak
This was DO GOOD I'm watching it twice.. hey Dan! Michele, our beautiful Lady Traveler extraordinaire!🥰🥰😘 Steve, you did amazing to restrain at the market, I was already done with the huntleypalmers and dairyfree Creamcheese supper, and you all got me back in the cupboard☺️😂 Glorious Gorgeous and Heaven sent!!💋💋💋
FYI , if you intend to do nasi lemak again . Then you must do a nasi padang with salted egg & etc. Salted egg gives the nasi padang another level of heaven. You may not look back at fried or whole egg again.
IF YOU WANT TRY RICE MORE FAT OF COCONUT ,I SUGGEST YOU TO TRY NASI DAGANG ..THE RICE WE STEAM TOGETHER WITH SPICE AND OTHER INGREDIENTS..THAT MAKE RICE SO SO GOOD AND DELICIOUS...
Sir you are enjoying the amazing Malaysian food and I was enjoying your interaction with the locals and workers. Today I have learned how to do a v logging really appreciate your work.
YES! Wanjo nasi lemak a place you shouldn't miss. Another place super famous is Village Park nasi lemak with PEANUTS...love their fried chicken called ayam berempah. You definitely will love this next place. Hope you can give your thoughts and comparison between these 2 places.
A few people have recommended that place, thanks.. I think Ayam Goreng is traditional for Nasi Lemak Yes? It certainly is the way I first learned this dish and my favourite :o)
@@Steve-Owens Fried chicken is the Chinese/Singapore Malay style Nasi Lemak. For side, the Malay style usually either Chicken Rendang Or Lung Sambal Or Squid Sambal Village park is Chinese style, without the chicken, the rice is passable
Many ways to enjoy nasi lemak. My personal preference is fragrance coconut rice with a side of crunchy fried chicken, spicy sambal that brings a slight sweetness(just VERY little), ikan bilis(anchovies), a soft-boiled egg, and the best part of the dish is another bowl of fish and chicken curry mixed together to bring everything together.
My favorite Nasi Lemak are those sells on the road side (with a long queue) wrapped in banana leaf but never buy banana leaf Nasi lemak in the afternoon because it goes off pretty fast.
Masha'Allah (God has willed). Steve, watching your videos and how much you were enjoying the Malaysian food, I can't wait to go back home. Perhaps you can search to go by popular food in each State or popular place as much as you can. But, you may also start with, but not limited to, the following: 'Rojak' or 'pesembur', 'mee goreng mamak', 'kuey teow', 'soto ayam', 'mee rebus', 'nasi kerabu', 'nasi dagang', 'nasi berlauk ', 'laksa penang', 'laksa johor', 'laksa sarawak', 'cucuq udang', 'durian (a must have)', 'cendol durian', 'roti jala dan sarawa/pengat durian', 'ramlee burger', 'roti canai', 'murtabak singapore', 'sup gear box', 'sate', and many more. Hope you enjoy all this. Take care of your health also.
$2.45 USD a plate of nasi lemak compared to $6 USD of a medium size box of basmati rice with two medium size chicken drumsticks sold by a Pakistani street vendor every Friday congregational prayer at the ICCNY (Islamic Cultural Centre of New York) at 96th Street in NYC. It makes me homesick.
Middle eastern food on the rise now in Kuala Lumpur because Malaysia take in a lot of refugee from middle east,,,from Syria, Yemen, Kurdish, Iran ,Iraq , Lebanon etc etc,,,you even can find Rohingya food here ,,,some of them became rich selling food,,,in Ramadan bazaar they make millions of ringgit selling middle eastern rice,infact they don't want to go back home to their own country anymore,,, Stay safe and stay happy 🇲🇾😁
Steve, There is a small inconspicous stall near the Kampong Baru wet market. yes,a walking distance from where you were. It opens a bit late 8am ish. (closed Monday) The landmark is Balai Polis Komuniti Jalan Raja Bot. You will see a row of foodstalls opposite. be prepared to miss it, its a small stall but the nasi lemak there packs a punch. Do try it!
Is that across the road and down near the wet market.. I love that place, have been there many times.. Not the stall perhaps but the market yes.. I will try and see.
Its down the wet market. the landmark is Balai Polis Komuniti Jalan Raja Bot. at the Balai Polis Komuniti Jalan Raja Bot, you should see a few shops selling crockery, then move very slowly up. you will notice a stall with a "Nasi Lemak" at the corner and at a junction. That's not the one.The right stall is further up and you know you are on the right nasi lemak stall if it is next to a stall selling grated coconut. you have overwalked if you see fruit stalls on your left. just retrace your steps. its worth it, dont take my words, do try the sambal prawn the rice is grainy and full of coconut fragrance. the bespectacled girl manning the stall is so well mannered. really worth it on the entire eating experience, , and a shame if
As malaysian. Wanjo nasi lemak is not the best but the way they serve, hygiene, effectiveness is perfect. Thats what attract people to eat there. Coconut rice, fried chicken and everything is good but the only problem is the sambal taste a little bit off to me not so yummy. Once you find the best sambal & the best coconut rice, that is the perfect nasi lemak. By the way. You dont need to raise your elbow when eating nasi with bare hand 😃
Cheers buddy, glad you liked the episode.. Sorry I don't know that name buddy.. I'll look it up later.. Thanks. The price of that air burger could have bought a family two good size servings of Nazi Lemak, it's madness..
Ong Choy = Water spinach on the nasi lemak. The original nasi lemak is water spinach, cucumber, peanut, anchovy, half egg, sambal and the coconut rice and rap up to become nasi bungkus.
@@Steve-Owens u must try nasik lemak ujang coner at greenwood gombak food courd selangor near batu cave... Very good best eaver in town. No 2 nasik beriani at taman seri gombak next cimb bank near up town night market. No 3 nasik ayam mencongkam at gombak batu 5 selangor this place nasik ayam the best in town( i request (nasik goreng ayam gariang)....and last no4 restoran kari kepala.ikan sentul at jalan ipoh kuala lumpur this place special lamp currry the best in town you can have fish head curry to.....ok njoi your meal sir have a gread day.... Sorry my english not so well...🙏
eating Baklava in KL is a bit like eating Nasi Lemak in Brazil or Bolivia.. be fare to the Lady.. they are probably just starting out.. i'm sure things will improved once she has excess to proper middle eastern ingredients once it takes hold and the competitions really gets going.. i've seen sausages now being malayanised.. they starting to put chillies and lemongrass in them.. as before it was never part of Malays cuisines.. as for the long que's for the Baklava.. Malaysian are still new to real Middle eastern sweet pastries cuisines.. things will improved.. but i believe there's a middle eastern patisseries somewhere in KL.. in fact there's one in the pavilion posh mall..
Thank you for your well intentioned comment but sorry you are wrong. If I started to sell Nasi Lemak in Brazil, you might expect I chose that dish for a reason? not just for giggles. So I might expect the person selling Nasi Lemak to have a passion for the original food and try to recreate it, would that be fair to say ? I might even expect it to taste similar to Nasi Lemak. So when I see someone selling Baklava in KL and there is a fascinating interest and a queue even, I would hope that seller has the passion to recreate a credible dish.. After all, if you are passionate? you would want your audience to experience Baklava.. This was about as far from Baklava as I have ever tasted and I have had great Baklava in Mexico, Scotland, Hong Kong, Australia, Japan, the USA to name a few.. So No! I choose not to give someone a pass, when I suspect they are just milking money out of the public, because a food is in fashion, while making no effort to study their craft. If I were to make Baklava here in KL for the Malaysian public, you can be sure it would at least make an attempt to transport the eater through a gastronomical journey. In truth, this tasted like a piece of stale cake.. If the people in that queue said mmmmm! they were doing it out of conforming habit not involuntary surprise.. It's a very poor and defeatist attitude to say eating Baklava in KL is like eating Nasi Lemak in Brazil. It's as if you are in some way insinuate that, why would one expect either to be good? If I take the ingredients for Nasi Lemak and cook it in a far off land, it will taste as awesome there as it does here, unless I truly haven't a clue what I'm doing, which is the case here, I suspect.. I should add, you talk as if the young lady is the producer? I suspect she has very little to do with that process. and as for access to ingredients, there is nothing in a good Baklava that is not readily available in the shops here. Excuse my reply but you will find I am too passionate and knowledgeable about my food to let that slide..
I do agree with Steve. If one wants to make a baklava, do it properly, do it with passion. But.. there is always a but. Sellers like this won't care. They are in the business to make a living; not to go for authenticity. They don't care if the taste is butchered. So long people keep buying them, they will keep selling them. Once the trend fades away and a new one comes in, they will switch to that new food trend. If you notice, there are so many takoyaki sellers now, because it in trend. I bet in another 3-4 years, you can hardly find one any longer. These same sellers will then sell a Brazilian or a Romanian dish or whatever that will be popular here then.
Let's talk Nasi Lemak 😁 Where should I go to? Who serves the best Nasi Lemak? and what makes it so 👍 Let me know 😋
Village park nasi lemak...hav u try it sir? or maybe u can find aunty's homecook nasi lemak,u will be amazed the different in each component...they cook from their heart with so much love and passion...its the best for me....
Nasi Lemak Ujang Corner - Taman Greenwood Gombak. The best in Klang Valley. Hands down
Crispy Roast pork and Char siu next? Its not the same as the ones in Hong kong. Its next level
Homemade nasi lemak is the best in Malaysia
Nasi Lemak Ujang Corner Taman Green wood Gombak. The best ever in malaysia u mustx9 try...
When a chef reviews food, there will be no doubt.😋

@@Steve-Owens sunway nexis, kota damansara
Me also like peanut in my nasi lemak ...
Alamak... tiada bungkus daun pisang.
They use to put Ong Choi or Chinese Water Ceast. You were correct why no peanut.
Cheers buddy, glad you liked the episode.. Sorry I don't know that name buddy.. I'll look it up later.. Thanks. The price of that air burger could have bought a family two good size servings of Nazi Lemak, it's madness..
Ong Choy = Water spinach on the nasi lemak. The original nasi lemak is water spinach, cucumber, peanut, anchovy, half egg, sambal and the coconut rice and rap up to become nasi bungkus.

eating Baklava in KL is a bit like eating Nasi Lemak in Brazil or Bolivia.. be fare to the Lady.. they are probably just starting out.. i'm sure things will improved once she has excess to proper middle eastern ingredients once it takes hold and the competitions really gets going.. i've seen sausages now being malayanised.. they starting to put chillies and lemongrass in them.. as before it was never part of Malays cuisines.. as for the long que's for the Baklava.. Malaysian are still new to real Middle eastern sweet pastries cuisines.. things will improved.. but i believe there's a middle eastern patisseries somewhere in KL.. in fact there's one in the pavilion posh mall..
Thank you for your well intentioned comment but sorry you are wrong.
If I started to sell Nasi Lemak in Brazil, you might expect I chose that dish for a reason? not just for giggles. So I might expect the person selling Nasi Lemak to have a passion for the original food and try to recreate it, would that be fair to say ? I might even expect it to taste similar to Nasi Lemak.
So when I see someone selling Baklava in KL and there is a fascinating interest and a queue even, I would hope that seller has the passion to recreate a credible dish.. After all, if you are passionate? you would want your audience to experience Baklava.. This was about as far from Baklava as I have ever tasted and I have had great Baklava in Mexico, Scotland, Hong Kong, Australia, Japan, the USA to name a few..
So No! I choose not to give someone a pass, when I suspect they are just milking money out of the public, because a food is in fashion, while making no effort to study their craft. If I were to make Baklava here in KL for the Malaysian public, you can be sure it would at least make an attempt to transport the eater through a gastronomical journey. In truth, this tasted like a piece of stale cake.. If the people in that queue said mmmmm! they were doing it out of conforming habit not involuntary surprise..
It's a very poor and defeatist attitude to say eating Baklava in KL is like eating Nasi Lemak in Brazil. It's as if you are in some way insinuate that, why would one expect either to be good? If I take the ingredients for Nasi Lemak and cook it in a far off land, it will taste as awesome there as it does here, unless I truly haven't a clue what I'm doing, which is the case here, I suspect..
I should add, you talk as if the young lady is the producer? I suspect she has very little to do with that process. and as for access to ingredients, there is nothing in a good Baklava that is not readily available in the shops here.
Excuse my reply but you will find I am too passionate and knowledgeable about my food to let that slide..
I do agree with Steve. If one wants to make a baklava, do it properly, do it with passion.
But.. there is always a but.
Sellers like this won't care. They are in the business to make a living; not to go for authenticity. They don't care if the taste is butchered. So long people keep buying them, they will keep selling them. Once the trend fades away and a new one comes in, they will switch to that new food trend.
If you notice, there are so many takoyaki sellers now, because it in trend. I bet in another 3-4 years, you can hardly find one any longer. These same sellers will then sell a Brazilian or a Romanian dish or whatever that will be popular here then.
Seriously, Go for Nasi Lemak Village Park and thank me later 😆 afterwards Wanjo will be your second best
Have you tried it?
hai bro
😋🤤
Im happy u like it hahaha
Loved it ☺️

why no kacang? Nasi lemak must has kacang or peanut. We call it the Nasi lemak Telanjang (Naked Nasi Lemak) because no kacang.
Yes, I felt cheated a little LOL
In Malaysia, Malay and Mamak fried chicked are much better than the KFC hahaha, believe me.
I agree.. Where is best ?
Hello buddy you are actually do some intro music like ken aboard travelling vidoe bro and he always do some vlog of borneo Malaysia

Nasi Lemak Tanglin.
Many Malaysians on TH-cam say Wan Jo is better than Tanglin. Not sure if it’s true.
I'm not sure I would trust a TH-camr.. 😂
