Be sure to click on my website here http://migrationology.com/ for lots more travel and street food photos and videos! Malaysian street food is one of the best cuisines in the entire world. Part of the reason it’s so good is because there’s such an incredible variety of food to eat. Local Malay, Indian, and even authentic Chinese food are all very much a part of the local dining scene in Kuala Lumpur and throughout the entire country of Malaysia. One of the cheapest meals to eat in Kuala Lumpur is known as economy rice. The term normally refers to Chinese food that served like a buffet style right off the streets. Everyday, there are loads of economy rice eateries that sprout up around the city to provide workers with tasty filling meals that don’t break the bank. Throughout the day you’ll find economy rice stalls, but my particular favorite time to eat at them is for lunch. On this particular day, I was just walking around looking for something good to eat when I noticed a cluster of outdoor carts and few people hovering around all the food. After seeing what the commotion was about, there was not way for me to resist having Malaysian Chinese food lunch. It works pretty simple, the vendor just hands you a plate of steamed rice, and you proceed to pile on as much or as little side dishes as you want. after filling your plate to your heart’s desire, you go back to the vendor who simply calculates how much food or meat you took and write you a bill for how much you owe. I got a few vegetables, some tofu and nice helping of pork ribs and my bill came to just 4.5 Ringgits which is about $1.50. The tofu was nice stewed in a sweet soy sauce blend giving it plenty of flavor – I’m also guessing it was fried beforehand to give it a nice crunchy exterior and soft interior. The vegetables, were some kind of a green leaf spinach vegetable that were nice stir fried with chunks of garlic. But the real dish that I was most excited to try were the thumb sized chunks of pork spareribs that were cooked in a light black bean sauce. They were fall apart tender and wildly delicious! Though economy rice is an everyday working class Chinese street food meal in Kuala Lumpur, I’d have to say that it’s well worth the price tag and the food is pretty tasty!

chinese economy rice dishes is less spicy than the malay nasi campur and more to chinese dishes and palate and serve pork.
But generally cheaper than nasi campur as the dishes are much more simpler. rm3-4 can get rice,chicken and vege
The vegetable is called kangkung. I like kangkung sautéed with lots of garlic. In manado (a city in Indonesia) they usually like to eat sautéed kangkung, rice and iklan bakar with dabu-dabu iris, which is cut tomato, onion, garlic, some lemon juice and lots of chilli… Just imagine, All of them are really tasty together 🙂
you are nice guy. I invite for a dinner with my bangladeshi food

Hi Mark. Please come over to Kuching Sarawak and sample our food here. You can get this Economy Fried Rice here as well. Most importantly, you can try the authentic Laksa Sarawak, 'Ayam Pansuh' which is chicken cooked with cassava leaves in bamboo and the list goes on… When it gets too hot just enter any shop along Carpenter Street for cold beer. Anyway, thanks for the videos, very inspiring and I really enjoyed it! All the best. 🙂

Probably you don't like Penang not because you really hated the food, either you are jealous of Penang or you might have some kind of other political motives. I can see that you are anti-DAP in your previous comment. You are downright biased. Don't try to bullshit and mislead people.
In you happen to come to Malaysia again, come to Penang. It's food heaven there.
