Foreigners try more Malaysian food for the first time in Terengganu!
By now, we had our fair share of nasi lemak and nasi kukus, and now, it's time to try Terengganu's famous local dishes like nasi dagang and keropok lekor.
We went to Losong to try Nasi Dagang Atas Tol and Keropok Lekor Adik Beradik (Siblings).
We can tell that the food here is definitely different than the food in Kuala Lumpur. Nasi dagang and keropok lekor are MUST TRY food in Terengganu!

Gah!! Who eats nasi dagang without gravy!!🤦🏻‍♀️🤦 Sorry, we screwed this one up. Unfortunately we came at a very busy time and the staff weren’t able to help (we don’t blame them), plus there is the language barrier. So we had to figured it out ourselves (self-served). But we still enjoyed nasi dagang without the curry. Can’t imagine how much better it would be with the gravy! Hopefully there will be time to have a redemption meal before we leave Terengganu. Thanks to everyone who let us know we did it wrong - your comments really help us, so keep them coming!! ✨Follow us on instagram (@jetlagwarriors) for behind the scenes and daily stories instagram.com/jetlagwarriors

@JetLagWarriors 4 года назад

Romy Hamid haha we asked but all staff was too busy (it was a jam packed restaurant so we don’t blame them), didn’t even pointed at the curry. We had to figured it all out ourselves. and unfortunately noone speak English. But it’s ok. We still enjoyed it without the curry. It was really good already.

@hanazliabdulhalim8080 4 года назад

I was told that the rice is special one imported from Thailand. I remember, my first nasi dagang was circa 1989, at Dungun. I was lucky that my first one was the best. That time, no fancy-fancy fried chicken la, daging bakar la... just a simple kari tongkol(tuna)... and I prefer it than nasik lemak as the way its cook/prepared

@muhammadnaim8203 4 года назад

Based on my family recipe, nasi dagang is made by a quarter of glutinous rice and 3 quarter of regular rice. We steamed it until it almost cooked before pour coconut milk on it and let it cook. For the fish, we boil it first for a long time until the water almost dried up, then we cook the gravy, we put the fish and cook it with slow fire for almost a night. If we make the gravy at 9pm, it will be finished at 3am, and we need to stir it occasionally. For the keropok lekor, usually we knead the fish and sago flour with cold water and for the sauce, we cook the chilli paste with palm sugar and some vinegar until it become thicker. I lived in KL before for 3 years, but i cannot enjoy much the food there, so i bought the spices and the basic ingredients when i back to my hometown and i cook nasi dagang during weekend to cure my tastebud craving. Im glad that both of you enjoyed it. Have a nice stay in Terengganu, where nature embraces heritage.

@apisje700 4 года назад

Dont forget to boil tuna together with "asam keping" to get rid fishy taste.

@RajeshRavindranathan 4 года назад

This was traditionally a dish consumed by Malay Fishermen because it could last longer (most original condiments were either preserved, pickled or deep fried to last) and provided much of the nutrition needed for a tough day ahead. Should have got the keropok/kuah with it..yummy! BTW Dagang means trade.

As a KL native I've always preferred Terengganu's nasi dagang compared to the Kelantan nasi dagang. Anyway in KT it is actually common for patrons queueing up a line at nasi dagang joints. Not just nasi dagang atas tol but other nasi dagang stalls/restaurants as well. Especially the ones that were viraled on line. Couldn't compare both nasi lemak and nasi dagang since it is 2 different dishes on its own. I like both. It's just a matter of where you get your nasi lemak or nasi dagang.

Teh Peng or pronounced as teh beng is ice milk tea (or ice teh tarik) the tea was sweet & frothy because they add honey into the tea.. Btw, we never put sambal onto our nasi dagang.. But we will add extra gravy with cili padi & crush the cili padi into the rice for extra 'kick'

@chiangchengkooi9791 4 года назад

Nasi dangang Terengganu is a mix of gelatinous rice and normal rice. The fish, usually is tuna, boil first before being cook n the curry. If you are going to Kelantan you should try Kelantan nasi dagang, they use different rice, reddish rice, beside nasi dagang Kelantan you should try nas kerabu too. Peng is borrow word from Fujian/Hokkien Chinese which means ice. So you add the word peng if you want drink with ice. SERUNDING beef or chicken is a must try food, Kelantan are famous for it, but if you are not going to Kelantan try look for them in Terengganu. Serunding can be eaten by itself, with rice or sandwich..

@JetLagWarriors 4 года назад

great info!! Thank you

@chiangchengkooi9791 4 года назад

JetLag Warriors you are welcome Remember to try Serunding, beef or chicken. They are actually, meat floss, and are usually sell display in a glass jar or plastic package in the market, maybe you can get them in Pasar Payang, Kuala Terengganu. You can ask any Malay, and they will tell you it taste good.

@chanailay4633 4 года назад

Nasi Dagang is a mixture of rice and glutinuous rice while Nasi Lemak is just rice cooked in coconut milk. Nasi Lemak has ginger and onions but Nasi Dagang has ginger, fenugreek, onion and sometimes lemongrass. Nasi Dagang, you must eat the fish curry where the fish is simmer for hours to get the texture. Nasi Lemak is just the sambal.

@xchaix 4 года назад

keropok lekor for us is like snack

@maziahismail1392 4 года назад

Dagang means 'trade' ... closer to the meaning of a person leaving his hometown to do trading somewhere else outside his hometown .. probably nasi dagang originated from traders long time ago that came to trengganu to do trading and ate nasi with tuna .. nasi dagang must be eaten with its curry gravy .. which ivana missed it because the curry gravy was served in the big pot and you need to take it yourself .. so if you are going to have nasi dagang again tomorrow please do not forget the gravy in the big pot .. love you guys .. can't wait to view your video tomorrow .. take care and have fun ya !

If fish is not your thing, go and try nasi Kerabu with grilled chicken, the most famous one is at Fauzi on Jalan Sultan Sulaiman. In fact there are many versions of nasi in Kuala Terengganu. You could have an episode on tasting and comparing nasi lemak (fatty/creamy rice), nasi dagang (merchant rice), nasi minyak (oily rice), nasi kuning (yellow rice), nasi kerabu (blue rice with fresh herbs), nasi kunyit (tumeric rice) and nasi bajet (budget rice). 😋

Kerepok Lekor is made from fish and sagu flour. Fried kerepok Lekor has less fishy smell but the boiled ones have stronger fishy smell. You should try the ikan parang kerepok lekor which is a little white in colour compared to the ones you are eating.

KT is my birthplace and my wife is from Selangor. My wife learned how to cook Nasi Dagang from my mom. It was from several attempts until my mom finally gave the thumbs up - tasted exactly as she would do it. Two months later, my mom passed away but the recipe lives on. Due to the fact that not all can stomach fish, my mom's recipe has 2 dishes, beef and fish. If you are in KL, come over. I will get my wife to cook nasi dagang for both of you (not daging) hehehe.

It's Teh Ais. In Terengganu, the word PENG after a drink name means Cold (drink). That means 'ais'. Milo ais = milo peng. Teh ais = teh peng. Meanwhile in Kelantan, it's almost similar but is BENG. Teh beng, milo beng. Teh tarik normally serve as hot/warm, but sometimes teh tarik also can put ice. It can contain foam and also serve as cold drinks. The one that you drink is an innovation of normal teh tarik ais but with more foam. Kelantan and Terengganu people called it jebok, means foam. You can called it Teh Jebok
