Jaya Grocer is the high end supermarket. It is catered for rich neighborhood and expat alike. Average Malaysians go to supermarkets like Giant, Mydin, Econsave, Hero and a few others. The selections are plenty, more local products and quite different than the ones at Jaya Grocer which has plenty of imported goods.
Its kinda funny to me actually, certain everyday stuff for some reason .. Supermarket like Jaya grocery is a little bit cheap than small market in my house area and much more fresh too 😂 sometimes the same price as jaya grocery but low quality
Wonderful. Thank you for this video. Lots of really good produce and products for grocery shopping. Grapes imported from Spain, Egypt, India are quite cheap actually.
Maggi (German: [ˈmaɡi], Italian: [ˈmaddʒi]) is an international brand of seasonings, instant soups, and noodles that originated in Switzerland in the late 19th century. The Maggi company was acquired by Nestlé in 1947. correct me if I'm wrong
Maggi is actually Swiss company :D. They are popular in Hungaria and Serbia as well. Not like maybe in Malaysia. Weird :D you didnt see it in Serbia. You can buy them in big shops.
naa Jaya Grocer does not properly reflect most Malaysian's lifestyle. I personally shop at AEON. Clean, spacious, so many variations of everything, very very affordable
Have to agree with you, Franks is the best!! Had it for the first time and I was completely hooked! Just a question, which Jaya Grocer are you guys shopping in? Thanks
Sappodillo = ciku Sengkuang = jicama The tofu in tube which is yellowish in colour is actually Japanese tofu, and it's mixed with eggs Cincau = grass jelly, you chop it up and mix it in sweet beverages yummm Belacan = terasi/shrimp paste Holy cow foie gras d'or RM232?? There'd better be gold in it just like the name suggests! Coffee is big in M'sia, you'll find cafés everywhere. Nowadays more people own coffee machines at home. I enjoyed this video, thanks for sharing!
There are 2 types Pomelo... White n Red. I love the red. Dragon fruit... Got 3 types. Red (Red skin, Red flesh), White (Red S, White F) n Yellow (Yellow S, White F). All have own distimct taste.
Y'all should really go to NSK (it's like a wholesale market much cheaper sourced locally), Jaya Grocer is NOT technically local cos their products are mostly imported and not sourced locally and belacan is fermented shrimp paste i don't know why i just get annoyed when foreigners (sometimes even locals) don't even know the ingredients, there's clearly a label on the bottle, and also isn't it obvious that things are expensive cos it's imported? Sengkuang is jicama or mexican turnip, cincau made from pandan leaves i believe also on the label...
Pepsi IS better than coke. Its basically what was i troduced to the masses first i think. And Milo is a malted chocolate drink. It IS a staple in most homes. Kinda like hot cocoa in the US. Also.. you went to the bog high end supermarket. Locals go to NSK (there is one in quill mall) Heto, Gianr and local markets. You should try going to the local market. The best so far on KL where the market is dry is in TTDI or Taman Tun Dr Idmail. U can get 30 eggs for about RM12-RM14. And fruits are xheaper too. No Japanese Apples though. 😂😂😂
Indomie popularity has been steadily decline in Sarawak because of Mi Sedaap and Ibumie being one of the cheap menu introduced by local kopitiam. Even the packaging does looked like Indomie. Indomie nowadays is saltier that it used to be.
Trying to live and eat like a westerner in Malaysia is very expensive. On local wages, all food tends to be expensive and people will spend a far higher proportion of the their wages of food than westerners would. Trying to get top end food like really good steak is almost impossible.
Malaysia do have coffee culture...our coffee café are called kopitiam or kedai kopi and its everywhere in the country. If you go to the wet markets you can buy freshly grounded coffee beans. Starbucks are too pricey and would not survive in small towns and villages. But kedai kopi & kopitiam had always been the social epicentre in small towns and villages. My grandpa had grown and roasted his own coffee for personal use. This is how much we love coffee. Old ppl in the kampungs actually grind their coffee coarsely as they love to chew the coffee grounds. Milo & Maggi has always been Nestlé products.
Here's a brief summary about (selected) supermarkets in KL Jaya Grocer/Village Grocer: target cust is foreigner, mostly imported items, but the produce is definitely fresh (and cleaner). Most expensive, but sometimes there's very good bargain Aeon: target is local but also cater to foreigners. Have a dedicated section for Japanese items. Price is 50-50. Delicatessen & bakery is good Aeon Big: target is local. Produce is cheap and mostly good quality. Some imported item is available but not as much. Price is mostly OK Giant/Lotus: target is local, mostly local products. Produce is cheaper but quality so-so. Price for other items is also 50-50 but some items more expensive. PS: usually tourists will go to Jaya/Village Grocer due to the selection of imported items but Aeon is also OK with less expensive price. This is just my opinion ok, not neccessarily a popular opinion

Greetings from Pontianak City, West Borneo, Mr. Steve & Salam dari Kota Pontianak, Kalimantan Barat, Bu Ivana, i hope that both of you, can enjoy your adventures in Malaysia, and may God bless both of you and all of Malaysians, amen.😊
What?! Pepsi have a more citrus taste I like that more... also for the bread there's price on the plastic tag... thirdly Malaysian have both coffee and tea culture, it's just that we're not snobbish about it.. that is why we have rows of lipton and none of that Earl Grey, English Breakfast... some families do drink it but it's more of a special occasion kind of stuff... same with coffee, if you tell them it's arabica or robusta they're gonna reply with what's that.. if you tell them it's Vietnamese, Ipoh or Indonesian coffee they'd be more responsive of that.. lastly for snacks I think it would be fun if you do a blind test while reviewing it especially with a Malaysian *wink abg ajib wink*. Two bird one stone
Jaya Grocer is a Premium supermarket which sells above premium stuff and imported rare products. That is why their items are 30%-150% more expensive than other supermarkets.
Japanese fruit is so expensive because it's hand-cultivated for perfection, meaning grown organically with special light and soil. A single strawberry, melon or peach can cost hundreds of dollars. The best pieces have no blemishes or bruising, are perfectly shaped and taste amazing at the peak of ripeness. But in my mind, not worth that much money.
my late grandmother owned a small coffee, cocoa & coconut farm in Selangor and she used to grind her own coffee and cocoa. the aroma of her homegrown coffee in the morning when I was a kid is one of my precious memories of her. those types of coffee is called kopi kampung. there's a few local brands sold in local stores. but then again, only the locals know 😉
Sengkuang = Sweet Turnip 😊 In malaysia era 90an sweet turnip is fav vege school people malaysia called " SENGKUANG CALIT " calit mean smeared with homemade sauce and sprinkled with peanuts 😊 Sorry my english is bad 😢
Jaya Grocer is expensive because they are upscale supermarket with lot of imported product. Any place that sold fruit from Japan then it is definitely upscale. Standard - Lotus (formerly Tesco), Mydin, Econsave, Giant, TF Value, Aeon Big, Premium - Jaya Grocer, Sam Groceria, Village Grocer, AEON MaxValu Prime, Cold Storage Ultra Premium - Isetan Food Market, B.I.G., The Food Merchant
Those expensive fruits (usually Japan originated) mostly purchased as a gift. Corporate gifts or something u give to your boss or rich friends that already have everything, so you give them food. Or fruits...
Sengkuang (root) taste more like water chestnut. Saspodilla doesn't taste like cinnamon. Pomelo and saspodilla sold in the supermarkets usually aren't ripe enough. Sambal belacan = smashed chili with shrimp paste. Jaya grocer is a bit high end; also depending on its location. The best ketchup is del monte. Packet sause (sos) is paste. Maggie instant noodle original flavors are kari and asam laksa. You should try local kopi cap hang tuah and cap tupai.
Impressive supermarket tour. Thanks for showing us goods/fruits/veggies sold from aisle to aisle. That black stuff is "cincau"/grass jelly which is one of the ingredients which you can find in "ais kacang." Guess you have had tasted it, Steve. "Milo" and "Maggi" are 2 typical items which almost all Malaysian households must have 😂😅

Milo is Nestlé product. Despite its popularity, Milo is only sold in Asia, Australia and other developing countries, but not widely retailed in Europe or other Western supermarkets. Their chocolate drink equivalent is Nesquik. You have to wonder why. Milo has less cocoa solids than Nesquik. Except Australia's has more cocoa solids than SEAsian. Read the ingredients list next time and find out what's inside. In Malaysia, Milo drinks sold outside typically add condensed milk to it, when Milo already has added sugar. This makes it too sweet.
@@suhanjayalian5044 we are a multiracial country. In Asia, only Malaysia has schools for Indians and Chinese. India can speak Indian language Chinese can speak Chinese language, so please understand this and constitution of both countries are not same.
Malaysian Gourmet coffee culture only exist in cities. But traditionally, we drink ground coffee prepared locally... we buy the coffee powder and prepare ourselves. Or served at the local coffee shops. For example Terengganu has their KOPI WARISAN or now they call it kopi Wawasan Johor has KOPI 434 The northerners have KOPI KEDAH, KOPI BUKIT MERTAJAM, KOPI CAP GANTANG Melaka has many more coffee types, especially among their KOPITIAMs They concoct different kinds of brews and roasts
DO support your own local brands and producers so they can grow and improve. Old Town Coffee and Super use to be locally owned but has since been bought by Dutch giant JDE. Given coffee is grown around this region, it isn't right that locals can't get the best quality coffee beans at a cheaper price and instead have to buy some expensive European brands to get good coffee.
High class supermarket. Can get almost everything imported. A lot of variety. You had pomelo at my place. And that sengkuang you also had at my place ...in the popiah dish.
The Japanese fruits thats overly expensive is claimed to be the premium ones. Its kind of wagyu but in fruit form, i've watched a documentary how they cuddle & took extra care by maintaining the green house tempreture, the size & etc. Totally price for their hardworks. those fruits like Japanese shine Muscat grape, white strawberries and peaches (it also considered expensive in Japan as well) the farmer said every bunch of grapes the harvested will have the same weight n quantity & quality.
20% are not Chinese Immigrant, they are Malaysian citizen of Chinese Ethnicity. Just like the Anglo-Saxon of Australia, they are not called immigrant in Australia.
median salary in malaysia is €600-700/mth, many earn under €600, but in singapore it is €3100/mth. and food costs are only around 1.5 times as expensive in singapore
I like the prices in Malaysia, 1RM is approximately 1RON, so it is easy to compare with those from Romania. 🙂 The common products are cheaper or similar to those in my country, but they have some very expensive imported products. 😲
Think of dried seaweed sheets like spinach. I like to break them up and use them in egg omelets or miso wonton soup. Very healthy and they add texture.
Sapodilla known as Ciku in Malay. Love the taste, especially after it got chilled in the fridge. 3:19 Chincao or Grass Jelly in English. We usually mince it and add to our cold drinks like soy milk or milk tea. 11:30 The original Maggi noodle flavours are Ayam(Green colour), Asam Laksa(Blue colour) and Kari(Red colour). Back in the 1980's, those three were the only Maggi flavours available.
Guys, there are two braziliam youtubers in Malasia right now! They are Michele and Renan, and their chanel is "Mundo sem Fim". They are very cool and friendly like you two. It would be incredible with you meet them.
I am Malaysian. Jaya Grocer sells lots of imported food, hence, the expensive price for most of its items. Moreover, outlets in certain places may be more expensive than others, depending on the area u r in. Like, if it is in a shopping mall or areas where it is a major tourist attraction, especially Kuala Lumpur, then yeah the price-y-ness.
Hello Steve & Ivanna. Glad to see you guys back here in Malaysia ❤I love the "shine-muscat" green grapes. Over here in Kuching the price is around RM20 each. It's sweet, seedless and for the first time I found grape with super soft skin. You can eat it effortlessly 😅My kids love it too. We bought it a lot during weekend promotion/sales because we couldn't get enough of it.
Ivana's correct, Maggi brand is originally Swiss by Julius Maggi. USA is the melting pot of global cultures, Malaysia is the melting pot of global food.
It bothers me to see how far globalization went with brands. Maggie is a Nestle brand which you can find in Malaysia and Romania, 7 Days, the same coffee brands, sliced bread that seems fresh after a whole week... I always try to buy local products when I travel abroad, and I personally mostly avoid supermarkets for that reason. My only sin is eating in a McDonald's in Paris, but it was more of a cultural experiment. As for the cola dispute, I can only quote Cake, an American not-so-popular band, with their funny lyrics: "Some people drink Pepsi Some people drink Coke The wacky morning DJ Says democracy's a joke"
I used to be a Coke drinker since childhood but with the crazy cost of living these last couple of years and the fact Coke is 33% more expensive than Pepsi here where I live, I have been drinking Pepsi Max and it's so much better. I can't even drink Coke anymore coz of the taste. Oh and Rum & Coke with Pepsi is way better.
Indomie is my go to for that mee goreng taste. or was it ibumie. Maggie and Milo are all own by Nestle. Pepsi for me, as it has sweeter taste than coke. I probably need to cut down on sodas now. haha
