    I watched 2 of your videos, very good content. If you're back to Malaysia to try for more, you should try:
    1) Bak Kut Teh - Herbal pork soup serve with rice (found good in Klang Valley)
    2) Claypot chicken rice (Any where typically KL you can find it)
    3) Fried Hokian Noodles - different than the ones you tried at Penang (try to find the ones cooked with charcoal wood fire)
    4) Pork Satay (especially in Melacca)
    5) Nyonya Laksa (another type of curry noodles, you can find it in Melacca)
    6) Hainanese Chicken Rice (poarch chicken serve with rice & soup, some with roasted chicken)
    7) Mee Rojak (Rojak with yellow noodles)
    8) Dim Sum (variety of small bites)
    9) Chee Cheong Fun (especially in Ipoh)
    10) Many More (pork noodles, Chinese Restaurant - variety fried noodles / dishes, Indian Restaurant - nasi briyani / tikka, chicken curry puffs, lala chien, etc.)
    I think you're having a great time in Malaysia, I hope this helps. Thanks for showing the beauty of Malaysia to the world.

    The best from Penang specifically is prawn mee, asam laksa, and char kuey teow. But Malaysians typically love nasi lemak, nasi kandar, nasi briyani, ice kacang, cendol, satay, char kuey teow, bak kut teh, rojak, durian cendol, lok lok, braised, roasted or BBQ pork (char siew), apam balik, onde onde, curry puff, bakkwa and many more across the nation. Durian is considered the king of fruit in Malaysia and so we have it in all kinds of ways. 😛😹🥣🍜🥢🍴

    Hi there, Jimmy & Tah. Just to let you know that when you had the Hokkien Mee, the noodles consisted of yellow egg noodles and the white one is (in local Malaysian language is Bee Hoon) rice vermicelli/rice noodles. You can have it either with yellow noodles only or with the vermicelli only and yes you can also have both mixed like what you had eaten. The broth is made from the head and shells of the prawns cum pork bones.

    If you are in Malaysia, you will definitely see that there are a lot of cultures, foods in there, where you can't choose either you wanna try out Malay foods first or other races such as Chinese and Indians cuisines.
    Proudly of having nasi kandar
    Anyway, satay is originally one of Malay foods..
