overview for rakyat

Clickbait-y title/opening aside, this is a fascinating place that’s so much more than “it’s creepy/haunted”. People LIVE here. There’s a community inside with shops and barbers and all that.

(Not sure what type of chilli is this but it’s quite commonly used in Malaysian restaurants and quite a bit spicier than regular Bird’s Eye Chilies)

@Annoyed_Crabby Haha I know about this because I once stumbled on one of the chocolate factories hidden in some housing area near Bukit Bintang, with lots and lots of tourist buses parked outside…

@gombang And Malaysians will tell you that Milo tastes best when it’s served from a Milo truck/van. The Milo we make ourselves at home never tastes as good haha

Souvenirs to buy in Malaysia

We Malaysians might not be aware but apparently, we’re famous for our chocolate. Every day, an endless stream of buses filled with China tourists make their stop at chocolate factories that locals don’t even know exist haha.

Other must-buy Malaysian products according to this China YouTuber: Milo powder, instant white coffee, instant teh tarik and instant cooking bak kut teh.
