To head to Chow kit wet market right let’s go come on Bob Bob we’ve just ordered a grab to get there because grab takes 15 minutes and it was 40 minutes on the Metro it’s also only 11 ring between two beautiful nice and cheap pretty very cheap it’s the largest

Wet Market in Malaysia we’re going to see what we can find there I want to get some fruits which is not part of the wet Market I think that’s considered dry but anyway that’s what I want to get I want to have a look around we just want to

Have a little mooch don’t we we’ve not been to war in K before so no we hav it’s a new experience it is a new exper new experience and this is how the locals do their shopping whereas in the UK we’d go to like a grocery Store bye we’ve arrived here we are here we are short taxi Journey from where we were staying and we’re here very busy okay first impressions very vibrant I’ve seen a lot of fruits which is exciting cuz that’s what I wanted smells interesting it smells like fish oh I can see a cow’s head

Bobby hi good how are you England England very nice we like Malaysia okay we’ve got chicken here wow look at all this why is it yellow just got to be careful not to brush past any like meats or anything hi hi hello how are you I’m good ABA

Alam where you England England yeah use me oh sorry I’m really intrigued why some chickens are yellow these are live oh these are live fish here oh this one is here as well so the ones in the bucket below are alive they’re catfish suppose it keeps them fresh yeah

Keep fresh excuse me why are some chickens yellow and some white fire fire fire oh okay yeah thank you okay so the ones that are yellow have been fired and the other ones are obviously just just pure chicken chicken chicken chicken I am hello guys I am G I am guys I am

Guys oh here’s the Fire or the chicken oh my God okay there we go so that’s why these ones are yellow and those ones are white I still don’t fully understand the purpose of putting them on the Fire you know I’d actually seen a picture of this Market someone like

Flame grilling a chicken and I wondered what was going on but I’d love to know why now you know oh and I’ve just realized in the background you can see the Patronus Towers how about that do you get more K than that hello there we go go guys go go

Sorry that’s his cow he’s very proud of his cow wow very proud of the cow’s head yeah oh hey hello this is quite a foreign concept to me as a Westerner to have like a cow’s head out and about that’s definitely not something in the UK that would be like a

Selling point to your meat so you got lots and lots of fresh produce here we’ve just come down this aisle here and you’ve got all this fresh fish which is what you can smell these are quite small aren’t they yeah I wonder why you get the small ones they’re very interesting looking fish

Yeah got the Malaysia flags on the top here I find it quite interesting that people just like grab the meat with their bare hands sort of pick out the bits that they want at home you definitely wouldn’t just grab raw meat this is so different to anything

That we’ve seen in the UK this gent here just descaling some fish that’s really cool isn’t it I got fish juice on my foot it actually is really nice that the stuff is so fresh yeah as much as this is like kind of weird to me as a

Westerner it is good to have fresh food I do want that what’s this don’t know this looks like some sort of skin I think do you think it looks like skin it also looks like a mushroom I don’t know definitely skin what what is this where you

England can you tell me what this is this this this this stomach stomach stomach oh okay so it’s like the yeah yeah stomach okay okay so you found out this is stomach I think of a cow yeah you stomach stomach okay yeah thank you I’ve definitely not seen it like this before

Thank you so we do have that in the UK I think it’s called tripe I think that’s stomach but I’ve never seen it just hung up like that that’s so knowledgeable I didn’t know that yeah everybody so friendly here it’s why we love Malaysia oh wow eels oh my God

It’s an eel oh eels kind of gross me out I’m not going to lie look oh octopus look octopus wow mini octopus wow ooh that was interesting I’m still I’m really I’m like intrigued but gr up the is hello hello where you from from England from Indonesia I’m Indonesia

We’ve just come from Indonesia come from Lok yesterday yeah where in Indonesia are you from what island nice to meet you you know one thing I think a lot of westerners and foreigners would don’t really like the idea of all this like meat out and about

But the thing here is that people buy it this morning and then they cook it that day do you know what I mean like then it’s just in the street food you just cook it so it’s actually is really fresh probably much more fresh than we get at

Home from the supermarket it’s really not very hot in here either yeah it’s compared to outside like it’s all under under a roof you get a lot of air flow so right I got wet feet going down the wet Market would you believe now we’re out of that area we’re into more fruits

And veget vegetables there’s lots of herbs and stuff oh look got chili smells really good around here their eggplant I think I think that’s Thai eggplant I don’t know why I’ve started calling it eggplant it’s obene to me from the UK been in Southeast Asia too long

Chili’s I’m not here for the chilies I can’t hack it guys hello guys hello hello a aren’t people nice yeah it’s a lot less busy a lot less busy down this bit than it was the wet bit I think everyone’s getting their meat and fish yeah we were definitely in the way in

Asparagus thank you very much thank you lots of very interesting fruits and vegetables here that we definitely don’t have in the UK and a lot of the time when you’re eating them in Southeast Asia as a foreigner you you see them in curries and things but you don’t really

Know what you’re eating but it smells a lot better than what it did in the wet bit yeah it does yeah look at all these spices we’ve got like cinnamon what’s this I don’t know cumin oh look stares I really like all the spices that you get

In Asia like it really makes the food so flavorful so lovely excuse me what do you call this this is the cat vegetable vegetable catr catr genuinely I’ve never I’ve just never seen that before seen there’s quite a few things that I’ve not seen also the vegetables here are a lot

Bigger than you get at home they are they obviously grow better I feel like this Market just goes on forever as well like I I genuinely can’t see the end of it all the way down there also we’re only going down one strip there like parallel strips like I don’t know how

Any of that dragon fruit e sorry just ate the whole thing really good I’m not sure we can walk away without buying a dragon fruit to be fair I mean from what Eve tells me it was nice you didn’t actually give me any I’m so sorry so sorry I’m not sorry I was

Lying which one do I pick I’m not sure what the best way to check how good a dragon fruit will be is so like the ripeness I assume it’s how soft it is this one look soft this one looks good they’re actually a really weird looking fruit aren’t they like

Also like it’s so pink inside you’ve never seen a fruit like it yeah we take one dragon fruit you put this on here uh Piece One Piece five yeah just one piece five ring it one piece three piece okay yeah 15 ah okay is this a good one this is R yeah

Stop buying fruit now we’ve got a lot of fruit yeah I’m not sure it’ be the best to buy any snake fruit now after we’ve just bought half the markets worth of fruit can’t get sweet fruit if we see some we’ll get some if we see some we’ll

Get some it’s really nice to come here and experience some like proper Malaysian culture in compared to like the big city feeli and all the highrise buildings like this really feels like you’re getting involved with the local culture it’s really nice also I read online that this Market was going to be

Demolished and it hasn’t been but I think that would have been such a shame because this is one of the largest markets in KL like what like a real part of the community and the city it would have just been yeah would have been wrong to be demolished I can also see

Wellies buy yourself your protection equipment here and just like that guys we’ve completed it we’ve seen the lot this has been a really really nice experience me and Eve haven’t been to a market like this in KL before and a new experience in Malaysia for us we do love Malaysia

We’ve been here a lot of times and it’s nice to find something new that we’ve not tried before this is a really local kind of bustling Place yeah actually I don’t think I saw any other The Tourist but that just shows how local this Market is and it’s just a really great

Way to get involved and just see the daily life of people living in KL thank you for watching the video guys and if you did enjoy please like And subscribe bye

In this weeks video we visit Chow Kit Wet Market in Kuala Lumpur (KL). We have never been to a wet market in Malaysia before so this was an exciting new experience. We had so much fun chatting with local people, seeing new vegetables and trying lots of fruits. It was fun to compare this culture to how we do food shopping at home in the UK.
