One thing that has remained constant about Malaysia throughout the years is our constant offering of delicious food to visitors.
Former K-pop boyband EXO member Lay Zhang recently came to Malaysia for his ‘Grandline 4: Step’ world tour stop in Kuala Lumpur.
While here, he managed to go to Jalan Alor and enjoy the multiple food selections, which he filmed in a vlog.
After he stepped foot out of the car, the first thing he asked was, “Where is the satay?”
However, he was soon sidetracked by a tornado potato and ordered that first. At the stall, he marveled that they were selling fried durian.
In the next cut, he had already sat down at a stall and was trying to order a Sprite in Malay.
When the food arrived, the artist said that he had walked so far for lobsters and satay. Upon trying the meat skewers, he loved them and passed them around to share with the rest of the crew.
The last food item the star tried was actually something he had been craving—a coconut shake—which is very utterly Malaysian.
Lay was seen staring intently and commenting while the abang was making the shake, “The ice is right. It’s perfect just by looking at it.”
After he tasted it, he expressed how good it was.
“Hey it’s really delicious. When he poured the condensed milk just now, I knew it would taste good.”
All in all, it seemed like the star really enjoyed Jalan Alor.
We hope he’ll come back soon to taste other Malaysian foods too!
