Trying 12 Malaysian Foods - Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down?

Malaysia has so many delicious dishes and has so much diversity in it's cuisine. But is there any Malaysian food that doesn't agree with my taste buds? In this video I will try 12 different types of Malaysian food and give each on a thumps up or a thumbs down.
- Ayam kapitan
- Ayam penyet
- Cendol
- Char keoy teow
- Clay pot
- Kacang phool
- Nasi kandar
- Nasi lamak
- Ramly burger
- Rojak
- Roti canai
- Satay

    After viewing your reactions, I had the feeling that you have sampled the 'wrong' versions of our national food i.e. Nasi Lemak, Rojak and Satay. I am not sure which restaurants or food stalls you had those foods from but they are not the ones that I usually eat, especially the Nasi Lemak and Satay. For the 'rojak', that was actually 'Rojak Buah' - assorted vegetables served with soy sauce (kindly correct me if I'm wrong). The best version of our national foods is usually served and sold by the roadside stalls or small restaurants. These are the places where you can get the best Nasi Lemak, not those sold in grocery stores - even the locals would stay away from them. For Satay, just pay a visit to Kajang in Selangor - the mecca of Satay in Malaysia and you would be blown away with the variety of meats and the thick peanut gravy. Lastly, for a proper 'Rojak', may I suggest you to venture out to Penang and sample her Rojak Mee (also known as Pasembur).

    For the satay, I think you went to the wrong place to eat. The satay is supposed to come with a bowl of yummy peanut sauce. It will be good if you can get some information from the locals to find a place for good satay (nearest to your temporary home). Otherwise, can always drop by at Kajang for some satay. The one I saw in the video does not even look like the satay we normally have. The satay suppose to come with ketupat (rice wrapped in leaves) and some cucumber and onions, and of course a bowl of peanut sauce. But it seems they did not serve ketupat with the satay as well.

    The fruits Rojak that you had, it have shrimp paste in it, hence for that fishy or pungent taste in it. There's another different type rojak called pasembur in penang, where's fried fritters of tofu, prawn, coconut and crackers drizzled with thick peanut gravy..and this combination really work well if you have it together with cendol. Oh yes the green jelly in cendol is made from pandan leave essence.

    I think what you can't adjust yet is the shrimp paste (belacan) in both the nasi lemak's sambal (the sweet & spicy chilli gravy) and the rojak. Probably you can try the nasi lemak with vegan sambal (no shrimp paste), there are some seller who doesn't add the shrimp paste in the sambal or the rojak paste. You can even learn to make your own rojak paste without the shrimp paste, i think that will help a bit.

    Cendol sebagai minuman tradisional khas Indonesia ini dulunya terbuat dari tepung hunkwe, tetapi kini cendol terbuat dari tepung beras, disajikan dengan es parut serta gula merah cair dan santan. Minuman ini memiliki rasa yang manis dan gurih. Di daerah Sunda Jawa Barat, minuman ini dikenal dengan nama cendol, sedangkan di Jawa Tengah dikenal dengan nama es dawet, khususnya Kabupaten Banjarnegara dengan minuman khasnya es dawet "ayu". Berkembang kepercayaan populer dalam masyarakat Indonesia bahwa istilah "cendol" mungkin sekali berasal dari kata "jendol", yang ditemukan dalam bahasa Sunda dan Jawa hal ini merujuk pada sensasi jendolan yang dirasakan ketika butiran cendol melalui mulut kala meminum es cendol.

    Try both Dry and Broth BAK KUT TEH. I would recommend you to try a single serving of each if you are eating it with your wife. Both taste very different. However the dry version is cooked with small strips of dried cuttlefish. Thus have a little fishy taste which I can tell that you aren't too found off. Bak Kut teh literally translate to Meat Bone Tea. It's a Malaysian Chinese dish (yes, invested in Malaysia) where they cook pork ribs in a mix of chinese spices and herbs. It's usually eaten with white rice and comes with a dipping sauce (chillies and raw chopped garlic mixed with soya sauce). Besides pork ribs, you can also ask for other cuts such as pork belly, pork knuckle, and my favorite cut is picnic shoulder. Most times, it will also comes with pig stomach and pig intestines. However if you aren't feeling adventurous, you can ask the waiter to exclude those cuts.

    Oh dear, a good nasi lemak is good on its own even though sambal kick would make it even better. Sambal are usually made with anchovies. If you went to a restaurant where you allowed to self serve, you can just take nasi lemak rice, omit those sambal and fried anchovies and replace with a delicious dollop of beef or chicken rendang and boil egg. Nasi lemak non fish version.

Each has a collection of dishes of their own.
