- Come with us for a HUGE Malaysian food tour in the Chow Kit and Kampung Baru neighborhoods of Kuala Lumpur. We're pretty new to Malaysian food so we wanted someone local to show us the signature dishes and unique Malaysian foods. And wow did we find the right guide for our KL food tour. Siddoz with A Chef's tour made sure we had more than our fill of the best local Malaysian dishes in the Chow Kit and Kampung Baru neighborhoods in Kuala Lumpur.

If you want to prefecture in tebar roti canai, you need to use wet towel.. this is our small secret to our good tourist..
Were the food you ate included in the "tour fee" or you paid separately?
The only thing not included in the tour is gratuity. Food is included in the cost of the tour
This is the most proper way to review anything in places you're not familiar with. Some TH-camrs just crash even places that most locals don't go and complain about the taste lol
Thanks so much, we put a lot of time in to research to make sure we have good stuff that the locals would recommend so glad you appreciate!
Some foreigners might be afraid to try our flavourful food. But you guys are so open minded in trying new food. Awesome!
Yes! We travel to eat. No point going all the way to Malaysia to get KFC 🤣 So much good food here, stay tuned, we're spending a lot more time to Malaysia, eating lots of great things.
Malaysia has the best food in all SE ASIA
I think a lot of people would agree with that, it's delicious!
'Get away from me'...haha that is when u eating Malaysian food. Thank you for sharing the video, u should enjoy more of our local food explore the kampung site. Enjoy ur stay in Malaysia.🙋🏻♀️
Thank you so much! And yes, Geoff gets like a dog with his food when he really likes it. He will bite you if you try to touch it, hahaha
The humble roti canai is the no 1 street food in the world for 2022
We have just heard that fact. It's delicious, so it's no surprise it's #1 🏅
Loved to see both of you trying different foods, deserts from different races and tasting different exotic fruits from Malaysia. Enjoy your stay in Malaysia. Stay safe and stay positive.
That's really nice, thanks so much! We love the food and the people here in Malaysia so lots more fun videos coming
To find the best food guide in Malaysia...make sure he is BIG GUYS
Wow this is amazing video. This is the first time I see youtuber cover this place with a lot of information about food and rare stuff like tempoyak, stinky beans and fruit of Malaysia. This is what we want to see. Good job guys
Hi! Thanks so much. We were so lucky to have our guide Siddoz. This was our first week in Malaysia so we were just being introduced to the cuisine and we couldn't have asked for a better guide. His explanations have helped us to find the best food in the following months we are spending here. So much fun to learn about a new cuisine. Especially when it's as delicious and huge and diverse as Malaysian food.
Enjoy your delicious Malaysian foods !😋😋😋❤
Thanks! We are very much enjoying!
this makes me want to travel to KL from Singapore to buy the whole slab of char siew and siew yoke to go with a bottle of red or a big jug of beer :)
OMG Sarah yes! If you go, we'll be back in KL probably soon, we'd love to share that wine or beer with you over some delicious pork 🍻🍷 Cheers!
Thank you for sharing your journey. Glad that both of you are enjoying the food.
Thanks for watching Afezah! We are certainly enjoying the food. My pants are a bit tight, so maybe enjoying a bit too much!
There's a couple of times when I thought the food tour is gonna end, but then it continues, more, and more...I just can't 🤣 And I'm watching this while I'm hungry too 😭 It's time for my own food hunting 😭
Edited: That's a great food tour overall and both Mike and Siddoz sounds like awesome guides indeed 👍
OMG, I know. We felt the same way on that day. We were so stuffed full, thought we were close to finished but Siddoz just kept bringing us more food. So so worth it to take that tour, but don't eat for like 2 days before to prepare! And yes, we were so lucky to have both Mike and Siddoz. They gave us a perfect introduction to KL.
Enjoy eating and have fun!
Hi Suay! We are having so much fun (and getting chubby🤣)
You eat all that in one day? 😅
Chef's tour did a good job 👍
Really show u guys variety of local foods
I know, we ate SO MUCH! Chef's tour really makes sure you get to try so many dishes. Siddoz was so great.
Okay that was epic failure on the roti canai tryout hahah 😂 But you gave it a try, so half a point still 👏
Oh you guys don't know about corns as delicious snacks, then maybe you should try the traditional malay *bubur* (sweet porridges as desserts or snacks traditionally during teatime or late evening supper) in particular *bubur jagung* (corns), *bubur kacang (hijau)* (green/mung beans), and *bubur cha cha* but I hope you have sweet tooth!
Oh no, I was so so bad at the roti canai. How embarrassing 😂. Thanks for the recommendations, we'll see if we can't find those snacks!
Otak otak wrap in palm leaves
Yes, palm leaves. Did we say bamboo?
Apam balik/ rambutan/ manggis/ tempoyak/roti canai/
Delicious!
Kampung Baru means in English the new village
Yes, our guide told us that! We liked it there very much!
I love that curry mee and laksa, and also the mee goreng mamak. That's look awesome. Ok now I'm hungry.
😂😂. this video is several months old now and you made me hungry just mentioning the dishes.😂😂
I miss the food so much. I left Malaysia at 9 yrs old
I left Malaysia just over a year ago and I miss the food too.😁😋
how you comment Roti Canai been voted Best street Food in the world for 2022
We love Roti Canai! It's easy to see how it was voted best street food
@@PureDetour Asam laksa also voted best street food years ago
The question is can you eat all the food.
Hahaha. We are certainly going to try to eat it all 😂
Damnnnn u guys eat bunch of fooodsssssss
Yup, we eat A LOT. A Chef's tour does such a great job making sure that we got to try some of the best food in Kuala Lumpur.....and LOTS of it, ahhaha. We're getting fat 😂
@@PureDetour save ur taste buds for more food...yeah its better to have chef tour in ur exploration...im sure u will gain 20pounds easily hahaha...but there are parks all around town to burn off the calories lol...
What you ate is probably less than 5 % of Malaysian food. It takes years to visit all states to sample them.
We are so excited to keep trying more of the Malaysian food as we continue to travel around this amazing country. What is your #1 favourite Malaysian dish? We'll look for it and try it!
@@PureDetour there are many fav..but you ate both already which are satay and nasi lemak. I like laksa eg curry paksa, nyonya laksa, asam laksa. Of course i also love dim sum
Oooh, I like those things too.
You should try the chicken butt, liver and gizzard
Oh no Steven. I'm not sure. Geoff likes to be a bit more adventurous than I do. I'm not keen on organ meats. Also, what is chicken butt? Geoff says I have that 🤣
@@PureDetour what!!!!????
You don't know what is butt...bum.....??
Great video. You guys are very good at describing the taste. Would be helpful if you could tell us prices in local currency. Thanks .
Hi Kim, thanks so much. We do our best to describe something as personal as taste, but it's difficult some times. For this food tour, we paid the guide and all of the food was included, so we didn't get the prices. But it's a good suggestion and we're trying to remember to include this info in upcoming videos. Thanks for watching!
I usually chew on the mangosteen seeds.
Ayam percik sedap 😅
sedapnya ayam berempah
Please visit Jalan Alor Food Market.
Cendol durian
😀
Ikan bakar
so tasty!
Nasi kerabu
Mmmmmm, sedap
Fyi, roti canai has just been voted as the 2nd best World street snack.
We know, we had Roti Canai in several of our videos and we mentioned that in one of them. Thanks for watching
Roti canai is best eaten plain without the egg.
With fresh onion and green chilli is good too.
Mmmmmm. We've tried this too! it's so delicious. Now I know what I'll eat tomorrow morning 😂
What part of KL has the most halker, street food stalls I like how bangkok got that food cart on every corner vibe. I don't know if KL neighborhoods are like that.
You won't see carts set up everywhere like you do in Thailand outside of few small areas. Chow kit which was featured in this video is one area where you will see a lot of carts along the road side.
What Malaysia has and I love are called Kopitiams or Kopi Kadai's, Basically one individual owns a building and they serve simple breakfast fares like kaya toast and 1/2 boiled eggs as well as coffee and tea. Then they lease out small areas of their building to other vendors and anywhere from 2 - god knows how many vendors will be in there, all making something different. And the Kopitiams are everywhere.
@Pure Detour I will research chow kit area. How's transportation in that area? Any masjids or mosque in chow kit area?
I don't recall if there are any masjids directly near the chow kit area, but Malaysia is a predominantly Muslim country so I am certain that there won't be one far away
Mi goreng mamak
😋
Otak-otak
This was our first time trying this!
Nasi Kerabu is Rice To Wednesday 😍
mmmmmm😋
He should have ended it with the mango susu 😆
Mango susu was delicious, and we were so very very full by the end of this tour, we ate waaay too much, haha
no hard feeling that guy remind me as big smoke
Haha wait till you try corn drink
Corn drink?!? Do you like it? We never tried.
@@PureDetour it’s quite popular here. Usually sold at stalls where they have huge containers of multicoloured drinks, corn is the yellow one. I looike
@@ZulOthmanJulod ...syrup bandung is more common
2:27 apam baliak 👍.. .haha
😜 😋🙃
that guy play sax ?
Apam Balik, not Apam Baliak
Hi, the dish is called Apam Balik, but the stall name was Apam Baliak, which is funny, because when I put it into google translate means "What's up?" 😊 Is that right?
@@PureDetour NOPE.
@@khairulazhar8118 Thanks for clearing that up, lol
Recommend to wear more "close" attire 🧕
😂 Imagine I wore everything that some stranger on the internet suggested I wear.
@@PureDetour This fundamentalist weirdo has been doing this all over KL videos. Did my bit and thumbed down 😤

Apam balik is my fav.. will learn how to make it myself.. miss malaysian food so much here in Australia
Ooooh, homemade Apam Balik sounds amazing. Glad we could bring you memories of the Malaysian food 🇲🇾
@@PureDetour yea.. i have learned to cook keropok lekor myself.. being alone here .. i need to keep learning if i miss any of my fav food
The tour guide is so friendly and nice. Definitely a 5 stars for him. 👍🏼
Totally agree! He is amazing. If you're interested in taking that same tour, check it out here! Kuala Lumpur Chow Kit Evening Food Tour - achefstour.com/tour/kuala-lumpur-food-tour/?trackingCode=4d9ecaaf49364070b861828c04ce8f49
Watching you two eat that sweet pastry with corn is 🌟🥇born and bred in the Philippines, I grew up eating fruit salad with sweet corn 😅 fast forward to when I moved to England and served fruit salad (with sweet corn) to English friends and they didn’t quite know what to say to me 😂😂 one of them finally said “but corn is vegetable!!” I was like “is it????” 😂😂😂 Many years later, I made fruit salad (with sweet corn again) for my American hubby….he said “look, a vegetable in fruit salad!!!!” 😂😂😂
Hey Rose! Not going to lie, when we first had corn with a sweet (I think it was on ice cream in Thailand) we were a bit confused. Corn isn't even a vegetable, it a grain, right? So it is quite weird for us, but we're believers now. Enjoying the corn in all the sweets. I think we had it on Celdol too!
Yes, we Malaysian put corn in cendol too 😀
Welcome to Malaysia guys. Each state have their own signature food..example Kelantan - nasi kerabu, Penang island - pasembur, char kuey tiow, Melaka - Asam pedas...etc.sometime, I just travel to other state just to eat their local speciality food.
Hi Nazil! Yes, after this Kuala Lumpur tour we have since visited Melaka & Ipoh and love how each region has it's specialties. We LOVED the asam pedas in Melaka, you can see it in one of our Melaka videos. And Penang is next for us! Do you have any recommendations for where to try the dishes you suggested for Penang?
@@PureDetour Hi...Penang famous with char kuey teow and pasembur. Char kuey teow is cheap less than rm10...pasembur price depends on what you choose. Coulde reach rm20-rm40 perplate...this is their signature food. Hope this helps. Have a great holiday in Penang...just prepare for traffic jam in Penang...😅
Matta Fair 2023 is on 17-19 March at Mitec kuala lumpur.there is lots of discount for vacation around Malaysia. Don't forget to look for pulau perhentian (pulau besar) near Terengganu. Very nice beach...with discount maybe could get around rm500 perperson include 3 meals for 3 days 2 night...
now THIS is a local food venture! awesome reactions to wide ranges of local awesomeness. kudos guys!
Thanks so much! Our guide was amazing, we would never have had so much food in one day without him!
It apam balik.. not apam baliak 😆😆😆 no worries you will get use to it if you try all the local traditional malaysian cakes and food street..👍👍👍
We see that, but we just copied the sign that the vendor had on his stall. If you go back and watch, that's how it was spelled on his sign. But we do mispronounce almost everything so why not misspell it too, ahaha. We're trying, and this is all new to us, but we are enjoying it 🙏😊
@@PureDetour yeah the seller was injecting a little humour into the name hahah
@@PureDetour..Hope you also tried the crispy apam balik too which has many variations - you can choose to have coconut +peanuts, bananas, etc. My favourite apam is one found in Penang only soft texture with eggs & slices of banana in the center & apam with soft texture (eggs, flour, sugar all mixed) & folded with both ends in the center
@@sue7014, I don't remember what it was called, but i did a food tour in Penang where we were introduced to what was essentially apam balik but was told it was a Chinese version which was crispy and delicious. No idea if that is what you are referring to😁
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video n for showing your food explorations in KL. Yes, u guys r right, nasi lemak n lots of other Malaysian street food r indeed comfort food.
Thanks for watching Yasin! What's your favourite Malaysian food?
@@PureDetour Thank u too. Almost all what u guys ate in this video r my video, from nasi lemak, nasi kerabu, curry noodle n asam laksa to satay, mango juice etc 😁
hahaha. Everything is your favourite? I guess it's hard to choose 🤣
@@PureDetour Hahaha, yes, u got it right, Malaysian comfort food. 😁
"come on!": The outrage at the deliciousness is my favorite
Hahaa. So true. When I watch these videos back I say that we need to work on our delicious faces, because they usually just end up looking like we're angry or disgusted. We've actually had comments from people thinking we disliked something that was delicious because of our dumb faces.
So glad you guys liked the food.
Now you understand our problem of keeping our weight down. 😀
Hahaah, yes we TOTALLY understand this problem, lol
Rambut means hair, not hairy. Roti telur is pronounced as roti telur, not roti telar. You should have eaten nasi kerabu with its accompaniments such as fish dipped into flour and fried and fish crackers. I like to eat it with grilled beef
Thanks for the info! We're just learning about this amazing cuisine. And by the time we got to the nasi kerabu we were so full, it was hard to eat anything 😂
@@PureDetour you're welcome
How do you keep from gaining weight❤
We are gaining weight! You should see my belly right now, lol. Do you have any workout tips? Because we can't stop eating all this delicious food 🤤
Do you like chicken or beef satay?
We like both, it's so hard to decide. What's your favourite?
@@PureDetour chicken. I do not eat beef
Hey, guys. Great vid. Thanks for posting this. We're about to spend a month on the island and this will be our first visit. Can you suggest the best overall location to experience Penang in general. he food looks wonderful. Cheers.
That really depends on what you're into. Georgetown is where most of the action will be and they have a great food scene. It's really hard to be more specific than that without knowing more details. Enjoy your trip!
The guide must warn the 2 foreign guests to be careful with the seeds of the fruits,,, it appears that the man swallowed the seed of the longan fruit
Haha. That was just a cut to shorten the shot that was taken. I assure you I did not eat the seed. 😂
Greetings~professionla ,Pure-:))
Hello Prohodaction! What did you think of the food we ate?
Nasi kerabu is from Kelantan which is one out of 14 states in Malaysia. I guess what you had in this video is very basic one. To grade it fairly, you should come to Kelantan or at least look for other Kelantanese who sells this dish. It should be served with 'keropok @ fish chips', 'solok lada @ big green chilli stuffed with fish's fillet+coconut' and salted duck egg @ telur masin.. And that's what nasi kerabu should be.. The other 'lauk @ protein' you could add on is grilled beef/mutton/chicken and not to forget coated fried fish.. I hope both of you will be able to try this delicious and herbal dish but quite underrated.. Be safe and enjoy your stay ☺️
So many people have told us we need to go to Kelantan to try the food there! We weren't able to go this trip, and we have to leave Malaysia because of visas, but if we come back one day it's high on our list of places to visit! Thanks so much for the vivid description of Nasi kerabu, you make it sound so delicious!
@@PureDetour it is really delicious if you find the right one 😊. Don't forget to make a brief research of the Kelantan's food when you come back to Malaysia one day.. Yes I know Angie will 😁 Take care then 😊
Thank you. This helps alot.
Awesome, so glad you found it helpful! There is so much amazing food in Malaysia. So much that we've made something like 8-9 videos and even more to come. It's so interesting the regionality of the cuisine. How a dish in KL is different from that same dish in Ipoh or Penang.
Cool reviews guy
Thanks Gerard!
You guy are perfect. Enjoy all the malay dishes. Keep rolling.
Thank you so much
Since both of you enjoying malay dish.I think " Masak Pindang" you not yet try, this typical malay home dish.I am sure Qually can cook this dish very tastefully. This dish you need serve with warm rice and sambal belachan aswell raw vegetable. This will make your day.
My next trip to Malaysia this will be the first thing I look for. Unfortunately I am only allowed to be in the country for so long and there is a lot of world to see
Coconut does not give sweetness, it is salty sir.
Hi! I understand what you're saying, but I guess it depends on the dish, sometimes they add sweet and sometimes salty. But I feel it has a sweetness to it
@@PureDetour
Yes, you are right. Coconut by itself is sweet or sweetish. But salt (just a bit..)is almost always added to coconut or any coconut product like santan, even in sweet cakes. This is like a rule in local cooking. Salt is used to 'bring out the creamy sweetness of our dish'
@@PureDetour Yes, coconut is kind of mild sweetness. And it gives umami flavour.If I cook fish curry and coconut added; you do not have to put sugar. It has its own sweetness
