Since the lockdowns have been lifted, Malaysians are more appreciative of our awesome mamak culture, and some spend hours and hours hanging out with their friends.
Recently, a video at a mamak restaurant has gone viral on TikTok with 100,000 views and more than 6,000 likes.
@ridzahmd1 Cara baru untuk panggil anne kt mamak bila kau kt luar ! #fyp #masukberanda #penangkini #mamak #viral
In that 13-second video by Ridzuan Ahmad, we see 2 people sitting at a small table. One of them was masked while the other was not. The one who was not wearing a mask was holding a signboard that said:
“Ane tengok sini (directly translated to: brother look here).”
It seems that it was written on a mini blackboard with chalk, and the sides of the board are decorated with LED strips. That’s not all however, as 2 Bluetooth speakers were also attached to the board.
After listening to it closely, we recognised that the song played was a parody of Bohemian Rhapsody named Mamak Rhapsody by Jaster Fong.
The lyrics for the part that was playing were:
“Aku nak buat order tapi customer banyak you tak dengar (I want to make an order, but there were a lot of customers, so you couldn’t hear me.”
Ridzuan told WORLD OF BUZZ that this occurred at Restoran Sultan in Bukit Jalil.
It turns out that this is part of a video by Leeroy Wong. You can find the full version here on his YouTube channel.
