The video shows a series of clips where Nabila Huda tells viewers not to search online for 'Ayam Goreng Viral'. The reason being that she wants the famed fried chicken for herself.
In a quirky turn of events, Amy Search appears to ask his daughter what she's talking about.
Watch the cute interaction that's going viral online:
This lighthearted ad took social media platforms by storm as viewers rushed to scour the Internet, curious to find out more about this viral fried chicken.

Back in 2017, McDonald's made headlines when their fan favourite Ayam Goreng McD Spicy was sold out nationwide. Judging by the reactions of Malaysians, it looks like it's going to happen again.
Twitter user @Lailazee tweeted that she was craving fried chicken after watching the ad.
Another Twitter user @pinotwinot replied to Nabila Huda's tweet about Ayam Goreng Viral, saying that after reading her tweet, he just had to search about the viral fried chicken.
Hurry and get your hands on the 'Ayam Goreng Viral' by placing an order via McDelivery, or Drive-Thru at your nearest McDonald's Malaysia restaurant.
