Hey, dinosaur.
Dinosaur. Roar. Dinosaur.
Baby daiyun, you okay? You all strapped in?
You ready to go? All right.
So back in Malaysia, I used to love love going to McDonald's.
It's my go-to spot.
I love a Quarter Pounder.
But since moving to America, for some reason, McDonald's hasn't been my favorite anymore.
I just don't like it anymore.
Today we're gonna uncover. We're gonna go to McDonald's again
I've not been there for seven or eight years now.
Can you believe that? Crazy.
And the boys back there, they've not been to a McDonald's in America ever, right?
Yeah, it's kind of crazy actually to think about it. Insane.
So today we're going to go back there.
I want to uncover why? Why I do not like the McDonald's here?
Maybe they can change my mind.
Maybe things have changed over these last several years. I don't know.
But we will check it out, and we will tell you if it's any different.
What's the difference.
So you guys can know too.
Baby, are you excited for McDonald's? Yeah.
Did you like the McDonald's in Malaysia?
Yeah. Yeah? Was it good? Yeah. Okay.
What are you gonna order?
I don't know.
Let's order you a Happy Meal, okay.
Dadda. Yeah?
Will the Happy Meal come with a toy?
You're right. You remember. Yeah, it comes with a toy. Let's go.
Let's get the happy one.
Okay, we'll get the happy one.
Whoa, this McDonald's looks modern.
Looks pretty cool. So fancy. Yeah.
You want to order at the kiosk or do you want to order in line?
Let's kiosk.
Excuse me. Question.
We haven't been to McDonald's in like seven or eight years now.
Is there something that people usually order a lot?
Like the crispy chicken. The crispy chicken? Uh huh. Crispy chicken. Okay. Okay. The spicy deluxe.
The spicy deluxe?
Okay, we gotta order the spicy deluxe.
You got that?
What else? What else do we got here? We got happy meal.
Oh, we got some coffee drinks. All right. All right.
Very fancy.
All right. We got... Oh, got some bakery stuff too.
Wow, this is like way nicer than I remember it being, guys.
Do you want an apple pie? I know that was famous in Malaysia.
Apple pie is famous here too.
Do you want to try it? Sure. Let's do it. Yeah.
Yeah, apple pie? Apple pie. Apple pie.
$2.99. Okay. Okay.
Why not?
We splurge in McDonald's.
Yeah, we gotta find a code.
Where? Where do you want to sit?
Oh, there's like a...
Like a little play area here. You want to sit here, Rach?
114.
Okay, so we happen to come to like a nicer McDonald's.
Usually McDonald's here is...
We haven't been in so long. I feel like maybe this is the new norm.
Yeah, maybe this is a new norm but...
McDonald's usually it's not very nice, but this one's pretty nice.
There's a kids area.
The kiosk. Kiosk is big in Malaysia.
But it was never big here. This is the first McDonald's kiosk I'm seeing like ever.
What's that ones, Zae Zae?
What is this?
What's this one?
I am a huge fan of the kid's play area. That's so great.
If you have families, you guys understand.
Like having like a little play area that we can enjoy our meal is huge.
Ky Ky, you happy?
You like this play area? Yeah. Okay.
So first thing to note the difference between McDonald's here and in Malaysia is that...
You gotta clean the tables yourself.
You gotta clean the chairs yourself.
Like look at that. Like there's still stuff on there. On the other table.
And the guests or the customers that come in when you're finished...
You have to clean and clear everything.
In Malaysia, I think... I don't know because it's been so long.
In Malaysia, there is people that come and wipe the table down.
Clear all your stuff and take it all for you, so it's a more pleasant experience.
Here is a bit more different.
Oh, food's here.
Thank you so much. Thank you very much. Enjoy.
Zae Zae, you ready for your happy meal? Yeah.
Dadda. Yeah?
After... I want to play more.
You want to play some more? Yeah.
Okay, that's fine. That's totally fine.
Let's open your happy meal, buddy.
See what's in there.
It smells like burgers in there.
It smells like burgers in there?
What's there? You got a little...
Cutest little french fries.
Ky Ky want it.
Give Ky Ky the whole french fries thing.
What's inside?
Pull it out. Pull it out. Show us.
What's that?
Oh, apple slices. Okay.
Trying to be healthy.
What else in there?
Okay. Okay.
Open it.
Yes. Fish filet. I'm sorry about that. Oh, it's okay. Thank you.
What's in there?
Oh, nuggets.
Can I try one? Yes, go ahead.
Try and tell me how you like it.
How was it?
Did you like it?
How many thumbs up?
Or thumbs down?
Thumbs up. Okay, one thumbs up?
All right. That's pretty good.
Not two but one thumbs up.
Okay, I got a caramel macchiato.
And I got milk.
You got milk? Yeah, you got milk.
Let us know how's the milk, okay.
Okay, what are we going to try first?
There's so many to try. I want to try Quarter Pounder because that was like my favorite.
Quarter Pounder.
It's actually bigger than I remember.
I was gonna say it's smaller than I expected.
Oh, it's smaller?
It's bigger than I remember.
I think the burgers in Malaysia are probably smaller than this.
Because it's like... See, look at that.
Thinking of Malaysia again.
That's good. I would totally eat this again.
It's just not as like exciting as I remember.
I remember when I ordered Quarter Pounder back in the day, I was just like...
When I took my first bite, "Oh, it's so good".
Is is just me or is it just like not crazy flavorful?
Like it's okay, but it's not like... I don't know. Like a burst of flavor in your mouth.
There is flavor, just maybe not so much. Yeah.
So Spicy Deluxe recommended by... Very nice waiter.
These are actually the nicest McDonald's.
They're pretty nice.
Usually, my experience previously was McDonald's workers are not as sweet and kind
But these are great.
Okay, Spicy Deluxe.
Sandwich looks great.
Chicken looks nicely fried.
I actually really like that.
I like it.
I like the spiciness of it. It doesn't have much flavor. It's less flavor than the Quarter Pounder.
Really? I feel like it had more flavor.
I think it had less flavor.
And the chicken seemed pretty dry.
I don't know if you can see that.
It's good. Again, like it's McDonald's burger and it's pretty good.
I think personally I still pick the Quarter Pounder.
Ky Ky, which one did you like?
Dip.
Do you like the dip dip?
Yeah.
Do you want a nugget?
For Big Mac, I think this is like the quintessential McDonald's burger.
This is the quintessential McDonald's burger. Okay.
I don't know. I never have... Do they have Big Mac in Malaysia? They do.
But I never wanted a Big Mac. I always thought the Quarter Pounder. That's where it's at, you know.
I never like Big Mac as much because they have like so much bread.
Yeah, so much bread, you know. And then the... You see the buns is so... I mean the patty's so thin.
Like there's a lot of bread.
To me, the Big Mac is very heavy
because it's so much bread
I like the flavor of this one probably the best out of all the burgers so far
but it's just very dense. Yeah, it's very dense.
I don't like that it feels kind of like sloppy
and when i bite into the buns all so like soft
Says the man that likes Ramli burgers
Ramli burger is great
This has like so little flavor
One of my other favorite that I like to order is the Fish-O-Fillet.
I've never had it in my life. Oh, you've never?
because you don't like seafood when you grew up
When I grew up, I didn't eat seafood
So growing up, going to McDonald's I'd always get the chicken nuggets.
And then when I was older, I'd get the double cheeseburger.
This is great with the sauce and everything
It's pretty awesome.
First ever Fish-O-Filet. In my life.
Or Filet-O-Fish? Filet-O-Fish? Yeah.
Yeah? It's actually pretty good
I'm pleasantly surprised. Yeah
It's not bad
I like the sauce. Yeah, you can actually see the texture of the fish.
But the sauce... I feel like that's what makes it really good.
I like this one the best out of all of them.
Really?
I still think for me, number one is the Quarter Pounder.
In Malaysia, McDonald's is like luxury.
If you have money, you can go and buy McDonald's burgers.
Because it's expensive too.
But here it's dirt cheap.
We had all this... Like this is a crazy amount of food
With the drinks and also like the dessert, the apple pie and everything for...
42 dollars. That's including tax.
I know if you converted, it's like, "Oh my god. It's super expensive".
You can't convert here. You can't convert here, yeah.
So imagine paying all this for RM 42, right. Like that's almost equivalent and it's cheap.
So here usually...
This is like a special case that it looks nice.
Usually it's not as nice.
Maybe the McDonald's are changing.
Yeah, maybe you're right. Maybe they're upgrading slowly. Rebranding?
The marketing plays a lot into it.
But honestly I think based on tasting this, the quality of food is better in Asia.
Just in general. Like the McDonald's, right.
But here it seems a little bit more... Processed. Processed, yeah.
It's less fresh. I think the freshness really plays into the flavor.
Zae Zae, is there anything else you want to try here?
The burger.
The burger?
Do you wanna try a fish burger or do you wanna try a beef burger?
The beef burger? Okay.
This is daddy's favorite. The Quarter Pounder.
How was that?
Was it good? How many thumbs up?
Two?
Whoa, that's my son. He likes the same thing as me.
Overall, what do you think of McDonald's?
It's okay.
Nothing special about it.
I would eat here again
But there's a lot of other places I'd rather go.
Yeah, 100%.
But I do want to go to the McDonald's in Malaysia. Yes.
Let's choose again in Malaysia.
Yes. When we go back to Malaysia, we'll do a comparison. Taste every single item.
I've never had Malaysia's nasi lemak.
Malaysia's nasi lemak? I have.
McDonald's nasi lemak. Oh, McDonald's nasi lemak.
I always want to try. We have to do that.
All right, thank you guys for watching.
Don't forget to like, subscribe and we hope to see you in the one.
Bye.
