good morning from the capital city of malaysia
today we're going to get out we're going to do a little jalan jalan
we're going to go check out Merdeka square
i want to share with you guys a little bit about Malaysia's history
and how it came into existence and how it declared its independence and
how that differs a little bit from Indonesia's path to independence
but first, we're going to grab some breakfast
right around the corner from my hotel, there's this restaurant how'd you dean
Tajudin Nasi Beriani
best in town it says
i ate here yesterday
but i didn't bring my camera
i wanted to come back because what i had yesterday was freaking delicious
this guy up here he doesn't have to right now
they've got all this food already prepared
and it's it's 8 30 it's not extremely early but
yeah
let's get some food in the belly
oh
just bread
like french toast?
i like french toast
so it looks like malaysian breakfast is also very heavy
i'm sorry
this is malaysia okay okay
sure
can you help me okay
yeah this is Malaysian food, very nice
okay is this the rice that has coconut with it okay
coconut and ginger inside
nice sounds good
do you want to eat here? sure i'll eat here
uh let's do a
this one this one?
that one this one yes
egg cucumbers, is this rendang? yeah beef rendang
okay
you want spicy? uh sedikit(a little)
just a little bit
hello i'm good i'm good how are you
from america yes
i came here yesterday and
that looks like enough maybe uh
yesterday he was making something uh
roti canai
saturday sunday closed
oh yesterday what i had was so good but they don't make it today
okay that looks good though
okay okay thank you
try my fried chicken rice
the fried chicken rice yes
very nice okay
but this is my first meal of the day i want something a little light
a little lighter you know
maybe later for lunch okay
thank you any drinks?
uh no thank you just have water
you got a lot of food here
okay yeah i'm gonna eat here thank you
sit back here in the corner
okay it's
so i just asked that guy what this would be considered, is this Malaysian food?
is this indian food?
he said this is Indian Muslim food
so yeah let's let's dig in
it kind of has the same ingredients the same kind of stuff that you would find kind of anywhere
the rendang the egg the rice the cucumbers the sambal
the peanuts are a little different i haven't seen that served with anything
besides like the peanut sauce but let's see how spicy it is
the chili sauce the sambal looks different here
in Indonesia it's usually, I feel like it's just chili's
it's a lot thicker this is a little more pasty
and maybe it has some oils in there or something but
it's not as spicy i don't think and
now you can you can tell there's a lot of coconut mixed in with the rice it's good it's good
man look at that rendang
that is good nice and tender
that is delicious wow that was good that was good
man i'm kind of upset the thing that i had yesterday they don't do today
it was like a really thin crepe pancake type deal
that they fold over and then they put
it's kind of like martabak maybe
uh but they filled it with like a curry and chicken
delicious
so i had to come back because that was good i think everything else is going to be good
and it is it is
okay all right give me two seconds and then after this, we're gonna go to Merdeka square
you
