This is The Most Nostalgic Snack in Malaysia.... 

The lady that sell kuih karas and peniram is very nice as she always gave me extra when I bought something from her. If I bought kuih karas she will gave the small pack of peniram. vice versa.

Ya Allah murahkanlah rezeki penjual kedai tu semua selalu. Amin ya rabb. They are so generous with their hospitality and yes only in Malaysia. Love it! Btw Jimmy now you can do Inception liao with that gasing lol. :-)

The metal thing related to pregnancy that the lady trying to explain is about malay traditional method for confinement mommy. Heat the metal, wrap it with herbs and kain batik then massage it gently on your tummy. It helps reducing swollen, blood circulation etc. Heard it become famous in Taiwan and Hong-Kong recently since one of confinement massager lady start applying this method to a celebrity influencer and she loves it especially the corset technique.

The kuih karas girls are genuinely nice and sincere. Welcome us with smile and peramah. They always give free kuih karas to taste every time you go there. I’m Kedahan and this is my fav shop for kuih karas.

Congratulation to kakak jual "tungku".. even she can't speak english, she manage to make ichang and jimmy understand the use of tungku, heat, cover with cloth and put on the woman's abdomen as a traditional treatment after giving birth...

Jimmy knows how to spin gasing(Malaysian top)!! Amazing how you can understand Malaysian people so quickly. Peneram kuih is just awesome. Kedah ppl rocks!

Ichang & Jimmy showing how friendly Malaysians are...😊

Tun Mahathir was a trader at the Pekan Rabu in his youth. That is why his picture is everywhere in the market, in tribute to him. And...his favourite kuih is kuih karas ☺️ Love all your heartfelt videos. So happy you enjoy Malaysia and Malaysian hospitality 🤩🤩🤩🌞🌞

2:50 - It is "lastik" ( slingshot ). Usually for shot monkey, squirrels, wild boars or other. 4:50 - A tool used for mothers after giving birth. The tool will be slightly heated, wrapped in cloth and rubbed on the abdomen. Also used to relieve joint pain. 7:45 - In *general* , it's called kuih karas or kuih jala. Real roti jala is yellow in color and soft 9:31 - They think you are good at speaking Malay. 11:15 - It is called *Kuih Telinga Keling* or *Denderam* / *Peneram*

this video make me felt like going to Kedah, and to this Kompleks. I noticed many nostalgic item which is now not available in the city but can be found in this building. Kedah people so big hearted, friendly, warm & generous...i felt it by watching this. The Kueh Jala is my childhood morning snacks, always eat at school canteen...brings back good old memories. Thanks for this video.

i love how jimmy understand massage without knowing malay xD Also the two woman very nicely telling u to take one to taste alot of time haha so nice

Thank you so much for taking me as a Malaysian to Jalan Jalan in Kedah. So many things I'm not aware of in Malaysia. And thank you Malaysians for being so friendly. Keep it up guys.

I’m really amazed how Jimmy and Ichang understood what the lady was trying to explain about the message stone! I don’t think I can ever reach that level

You're just confirmed yourself as 90's kid as the last batch who had an experience to play traditional games before all the gadget tookover. Thanks to your experience.

Malaysian hospitality. Always generous and sharing

I like how friendly they are despite not knowing how to really communicate with you guys

You'll really dig the Malay heritage at every state in this bless nation...what a blessing couple you're...

orang kedah very baik and so friendly when entertaining people

Malaysian hospitality is the best in the world. ❤️

Wahhh jimmy you know how to wind and hurl the *gasing!* 👏👏👏 I also played that when I was a schoolkid, together with my *kampung* friends. But it was even more special because it was handmade, not by our fathers and grandfathers or uncles, but by us kids ourselves! We used nails, but the best part was the main body, we used *buah pinang* (betelnut) readily available in abundance because there was one *pokok pinang* very near our homes. We played the game called *pangkah* where we did a series of *one-two-som!* (rock, paper, scissors) at the beginning to determine who would go first, second, and so on. Then the first boy would wind up his betelnut gasing and hurl it inside a fairly large circle drawn on the ground with a stick. The 2nd boy then took his turn, aiming for the circle as well as the 1st boy's still-spinning gasing, in order to break it out of the competition! If your gasing got *pangkah-ed* and broke into two, there was no worry, there were plenty of betelnuts strewn on the ground nearby, just pick one, or more!

The ending was epic. Reminds me of my childhood. Haha ❤️

My late father likes to eat kuih karas with fresh milk. Like a bowl of Malaysian cereal for breakfast 🥰

Wow!! iChang & Jimmy can understand what the seller said in limited english..that’s good thing! Keep practice Bahasa Malaysia guys!

People here are so friendly and generous

In Sarawak This kuih we called it Kuih Penganan Jala, Some dialect will say kuih sarang semut. But in our version we use some sort of sugar ( gula Apong ) almost like brown sugar or gula Melaka but our gula Apong is slightly different mix with rice flour , wheat flour and water. Dear I chang , I hope that one day you can visit us in Sarawak and I will recommend this dish for you ( Mee Kolok, laksa Sarawak , Sayur Midin Belacan , Umai and maybe Kueh Chap ) Love from Sarawak

Omg i havent had kuih karas for so long like more than 10 years... Now i'm craving for it. I used to love dipping it in cold milk and it is super yummy!

It's call sedekah ni Bahasa Malaysia,,give thing with open heart,,,,first from fried banana uncle,,,now from karas lady boss Stay safe and stay happy,,

Woww.. Kuih Karas is my favourite. My grandmother's specialty during hari raya. Her friends would order them somewhere in Ramadan and served them on hari raya to family and guests. Glad that both of you are enjoying yourselves and pay a lot of attention in our food and culture. Thank you. Keep it up! p/s: Does anyone know the owner of Kedai Maisarah Ramli, please? I would like to know if her Kuih Karas is available online. Thank you viewers. 😊

Not many Malaysian know how to play the gasing, I'm very impressed 👍😁

Wow. Team IChang now showing the world our secret weapons to make delicious snacks n food. 👍 Plus some of our oldies fun toys.. bring and try it with your grandmother.. Still waiting for Ichang's next Malaysia cook dish serving to her frens.. 🙏

Wow! Really enjoy and like the spinning gasing....❤️ The jajan/keropok/ snack very nice in Kedah which I think ..but I like laksa Kedah as snack...🙂

i always in awe how Ichang and Jimmy could figure out what the locals are saying in Malay. Yes,you are correct Ichang,that metal thingy is used during the confinement period where they heat the metal and wrap it in lots of kain batik afterwards and put on top of the mum's stomach..this is the traditional way. Hope you do enjoy your trips as much as we enjoyed watching all you videos ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for showing me the snacks of Alor Setar, Kedah. I've never seen them before. Also the traditional cooking tools and post natal tool.🥰🥰🥰🤰🤰🤰

13:41 that colorful kuih in the plastic pack beside the Milo cube is called “kuih bunga pudak” is one of Kedah’s traditional kuih…

Hi.... Ichang, Hi.... Jimmy. You guy's are really awesome. Keep on travelling. There's more things to discover. Malaysia is a country full of wonder. Fell free and take care.

That "roti jala" snack is actually a favorite of mine and I can get it here in Penang 😋

Hahahaha last part 😂 😂 power of jimmy playing gasing

Terbaikk ichang can understand really well... 👌🏻👌🏻💯 Kuih peneram at kedah is always delicious one easy access to the snack also 😆

There is something about the positive and curious vibe you give to people which leads to them offering you guys food or snacks for free. Indeed, you both are so blessed with Malaysian warmth and hospitality! Ganbatte Nippon!

We in Sabah and also in Brunei as far as I know also have this delicacy..but we call it by a different name..we call it kuih jala..not to be mistaken with roti jala..my late grandmother use to make it and sell it.

Orang kedah mmg friendly and peramah. 🥰 arwah tokwan tok aku org kedah, dia marah betul kalau org tu tak peramah padahal org tu jenis pendiam nak buat mcm mana 😂. hahhahaha

4:20 wow, that coconut grater ( kukur kelapa ) its quite rare to see nowdays. 😳

Kedahan is very nice people🥺

5:19 Ichang body language comprehension is excellent 🤩👏🏻👏🏻🤣🤣

I'm Malaysian but never been to Kedah before. That crispy kuih omg looks soooo delicious! Ranggup giler! Got plp sell on Shopee? I wanna try also.

I'm feel so glad that both of you had reached ALOR SETAR, my hometown and capital state of KEDAH DARUL AMAN. You were visiting PEKAN RABU, among the most oldest business center in the heart town of ALOR SETAR. The snack you are tasting is called KUEH KARAS

Wow the place pekan rabu got a lot of traditional stuff..I hope I will be there one day...I can't find this kind of crafts in shah alam

Thank you. You guys always give a true reaction. I like to see how you guys interpret it. Jimmy knows how to play gasing. 😊👍

Salute for you both guys, at least you can understand locals. Good job guys. ♥️

one day I'm going to that Pekan Rabu to get those Che Nom-ish plates. When I was little we used to have a lot of those plates but us kids kept breaking them lol. my mom later would buy new sets of modern design plates instead but the old flower pattern plates are still better and very natsukashii to me.

Nice authentic adventure for both of you in Kedah. I’m sure there are a looooot more to explore. Next trip…Perlis.

Lol Jimmy playing Gasing at the end of the video 😂 its kinda like Beyblade right but Gasing is Malaysian traditional game 😃

Oh my...I have just been to the Pekan Rabu Kompleks just last Thursday, how exciting it would be to meet you guys 🤩. I got the kuih bahulu, putu kacang, kuih kapit and kuih bunga pudak. Agreeing with you guys that Kuih Peneram is delicious and Kuih karas is lemak manis and crispy. Glad to know you enjoyed yourselves there.

The kakak who sells the confinement item is very good. Although she has limitation in speaking English, she explains and demonstrates very well the use of batu tungku.

Ichang & Jimmy..love both of your reactions to this video...even though I am Malaysian, I haven't gone to pekan Rabu yet... TQ for the reaction...

That thing that you mentioned related to "baby" is actually a hot massage stone (it's called "tungku") for mothers to warm up their stomach area to retract your vaginal muscle after childbirth. You put them on a stove to heat it and once it's heated thorough, you put them on clothes (traditionally we use the kain batik) and wrap them and put on some herbal leaves on the clothes to for medicinal purposes and gentle pat on the mothers stomach after child birth. It is also good during menstruation period for those with heavy menstruation pain. But be careful when it's hot, you will need to wrap it properly to prevent scalding/burn on your skin.

I enjoyed watching this little short trip to Pekan Rabu! Used to frequent way in the 80s when I was schooling in Alor Setar! At that time Pekan Rabu was still in rows of papan lots (wooden lots) , very authentic feeling each time you hear the cracking sounds from the floor. And so full of sooo many things back then. Packed with sellers and buyers. After the face lift, somehow I missed the authenticness of the feel of the old Pekan Rabu. Nevertheless now the complex provides better facilities and safer in terms of safety. iChang you are sooo good guessing the 'tunku' part - the shops that sells stones/rocks used for messaging for mothers during their confinement ( after giving birth to new born babies). Although communication was a little difficult as they dont speak English much, but both of you were not put off! All of you tried hard to communicate with some English and Malay words in between but somehow you understand each other! Bagus!!!!! Wahhh Jimmmy bagus lah you spinned the gasing!!! Not easy! Needs special skills, you are good lah Jimmy!!!! Enjoy KEDAH, much more to explore, take your time to explore and to discover, chill and relax! BTW I was schooling at St Nichloas Convent Alor Setar - any one studied there? Say 'ai' ..... 🤗😍

I'm amazed at your BM! Keep up the good work ❤️

Been there numerous times. Very nice and clean area. Very cheap. Very friendly sellers and characters. Will definitely visit again. Thanks for sharing

I am Malaysian, I cant even throw gasing properly like you Jimmy! Respect!😎

The way you present this video is very good... thank you ☺️❤️

I pray to God that all this seller blessed with sustenance and blessed with whatever they doing. Saya doa pada tuhan semoga penjual kedai2 dalam video ni dimurahkan rezeki dan dipermudahkan urusan. amin ya rabbal alamin. btw I'm so hungry la Ichang!! gonna check out all of it when I go to alor setar.

semua peniaga kat pekan rabu ramah2.. sila hadir support depa.. 😄😍😘

Nice to see you visit the iconic Pekan Rabu! Greeting from a Kedahan❤👍👍

Hello iChang. If u are still in Alor Setar, do go to Changlun and try Cik Jah nasi ayam. So delicious and marvellous. There is also sotong(squid) bakar(grill).

Kuih karas... Love it. I miss Kedah after watching your video. Before this, almost every month travel to Kedah, but only go to the same place.

Jimmy is right,in Sabah we called it kuih jala.roti jala also kuih jala.

Wah!! Best Pekan Rabu ! Pandai Jimmy main gasing top. 😀🎉 Thanks Ichang and Jimmy for this video.

moga kedai akk ni btambah maju..aminnn

love to see u both experience new things & taste in kedah.

After giving birth, this is the traditional way for Malay ladies to strengthen their tummy/womb back to original form. Usually they will heat it up, wrap it in a towel and apply it to the tummy/womb area. It is customary for Malays to look after and treat themselved for 40 days after giving birth. This is one part of several other treatment methods. There are also do's and don'ts especially in what to eat and what not to eat after giving birth.

I haven't even been to Kedah...it's fun to be able to shop at the market when I go to any state in Malaysia....

In my childhood days my father used to make for me gasing from guava tree..recently my father is bed ridden due to stroke..please pray for him

Welcome to Kedah🇲🇾🇲🇾

omg... I always have those whenever I went back to my kampong at sabah. my grandma always stored them inside the biscuit tin 😋

when people belanja, now you can start saying, "terima kasih, semoga murah rezeki kamu"🤗

I love your background music.... So iconic... I chang. I love your channel

You should try at Nasi Lemak Haji Ali, I heard many people said it's really delicious curries, chicken meats and others. 👍🏻

when u go to kedah, they are always we called it RIUH...riuh....(chaotic) because of Kedahan is always so friendly and their dialect always sounds friendly too.

...down memory lane old town vibes... spin spin spin again,never stop spinning...the secret of life spins within...

Jimmy playing gasing is the best part for this video
