For my non-singaporean viewers, some of the items' names are abit ambiguous, fyi for googling too:
4:10
Granny's cakes also known as Min Jiang Kueh in Singapore, Martabak Manis in Indonesia, is a "Turnover pancake" using flour and tapioca starch found across Asia
the fillings ranges from peanut butter, kaya, black seasame paste, chocolate, etc, or plain.
there are savory options too (egg, ham cheese)
its originated from China.
9:10
Shrimp mee, also known as Hokkien mee in Singapore, Fujian noodles
Is is a mixed noodles (egg and white noodles) cooked in shrimp, seafood and pork and broth across Asia too and originated from China too
In Malaysia the pancake is called" Apam Balik '
Granny pancake is just a brand the pancake is called min jiang kueh. So pls do research
It should be mee chiam kueh for 面煎粿 (hokkien/teochew)
Martabak Manis! Thus, I somehow recognize that gorgeous cake 🤤😭
@@pdoys18 i did eat the apam balik in malaysia alot honestly tasted abit better than singapore fr
I like the way mikey talks to us like we're really there.
Yup 👍!!! ❤🎉
We are there 😂
W-w-wwait ..What?!!!
😱
No, n-no no.. why am i here?? 😥 i should've been there 😭
I met him that day, but didn’t get the chance to talk 😂
This is his Secret 🤫 Sauce.
OMG my mistake is in watching this at 2.30am and having to wait till 6am to eat at Tiong Bahru Food Centre. I am totally salivating at all the food! Great video!
Lets talk history! The curry rice is also known as hainanese curry rice. During the colonial era, the hainanese were famous for being chefs in western kitchens. Hence, they recreated british favourites like curries and pork chops using locally available spices, adjusted to western tolerances. Since then, hainanese curry and hainanese pork chops and other western dishes have been their local staples, surviving into hawker 菜飯 stalls and even Han's Cafe.
Bonus fun fact! The hainanese dont use the translated word for "pork chop" like the cantonese "豬扒”，we literally say "pok chope".
No one cares
Dayum thanks for sharing!
@@ndb_1982 You can't speak for everyone!🙄🤦🏼♀️
The 'Singaporean' breakfast of half-boiled eggs and toast is also a Hainanese adaptation, this time of eggs and soldiers. The kaya however is local, and a total game changer.
@@ndb_1982 it's fun to know abt many cultures who are you to say no one cares.
Mikey the ultimate eating machine…clearing out the curry rice, 3 noodles dishes and that peanut pancake in 1 sitting?!
I think that custard apple is what we call atis in the Philippines. I have been watching Mikey's videos for many years. I like the way he describes the food, always trying to paint a flavor picture for us. I like his delivery. I have been watching videos from another food vlogger and he repeats certain words a little too much. I realize that I am used to how Mikey talks in his videos. Mikey makes me feel comfortable. That's why I'm happy for his personal and financial success. ♡
"just look for the place for the longest line......Singaporeans will wait for food", exactly 🤣
Wow that hawker center looks absolutely amazing! All of the foods look so good! Hopefully I can make a visit to Singapore sometime next year and try out the foods 😊
The part where you said some expats been in Singapore for years but never try our local hawker is true. I asked a expat colleague before how he like singapore food he said it is just ok lah. So i asked him where he tried you food. He said you know, these cafe, restaurants? Me: ?????
"You can literally sit here and camp out..." LOL. This is so true. Singapore hawker culture is blissfully democratic and lively.
I thought Singapore's 大排檔 hawker centres were unbelievably clean compared to any other 大排档 hawker centre I'd seen in Asia, but now they've gotten even cleaner...Truly amazing!🙂🤗🤗🍚🥟🍤🍜
I finally see a place where we physically tried as well. We were staying at a nearby hotel when we were at Singapore and we went to this place for breakfast constantly!!
He is only food person I watch. I love all the places he goes. It's like I get to go there when I can't afford to do it myself
Mikey.. bring your own cutlery. Sending love from Singapore ❤
Thanks for the Singapore's hawker food coverage~ enjoying your food video as always!
mike's food detection ability is amazing
Legendary, even.
Man, all the Singapore videos has been great, I really want to visit there in the future. Thanks for the great videos, have a good one! :D
Looked like an absolutely incredible hawker centre. So much choice! Everything looked so delicious but especially those granny cakes the one stuffed with peanut butter ..wow!
that coconut is HUGE
everything looks so good, and now im hungry
Hey Mike love your videos as always, could really eat those cakes with a very spicy curry think the mixture of the two would go down really well
Food suggestions that you’ll love:
1) Chapati from Norris Road
2) Nasi Lemak from Blk 848 Yishun Street 81
3) Nasi Ambeng from Coba Coba in yishun
4) Nasi Lemak Ayam Taliwang from Yishun Park Hawker
As a Canberra resident, I’m gonna try it!
Besides Coba Coba, Hjh Maimunah serves Michelin Bib Gourmand standard Nasi Padang. Go for beef rendang set and rempah Ayam goreng peha set. (Fried spiced chicken thigh set). The queue in Tampines Mall outlet at level 4 food court is okay. All their outlets have long lines waiting every day.
@@wendaleong1103 thanks I'm adding this to the list
Dang, thank you Mike for another bangin episode! I would have a VERY hard time choosing what to eat here... but that first dish with the pork, squid and rice looks over the top good 🥲
That Lor mee, the main attraction is the shark meat! 😊 Super yum!
That HawkCsntrr is amazing. The architect, wow... Enjoy the meal & your time. God bless Mike. U always go to amazing places to visit.. 🐞🌹❤️
The Hokkien Mee (prawn mee) in Tiong Bahru Market is my absolute favourite!
So my Bf and I, we are in LDR and he's Singaporean. Lately I started to watch alot of your videos, especially the one where you were in Singapore. It always spark joy cuz i got to see Singapore through your videos, " feel and taste " all SG food through it. Yet also abit of sadness due to all the things I missed out. Hopefully one day I get to try all the food there 😭
what's LDR
@@blackmantis3130 It's Long Distance Relationship. He's from Singapore and I'm from Vietnam. We met online years ago
@@HyangWonhave you met each other physically?
@@blackmantis3130 we did.
This year, when my country lifted the travel restrictions, he immediately came to meet me and family. After few months, I came to see his family. Only last for couple days but it was fun, can't ask more.
Hope you can come back soon and try all of them with your bf!
Welcome back to sunny Singapore 🎉
Welcome back to sg, mike !! Really loved your videos and love it more when it's on food that we know 💕💕💗
Hi Mikey! Been watching your vids for a while now. Love the energy you put into them. Enthusiastic eating. While you’re exploring hawker centres, I’m not sure if you’re aware, but we have one by the beach, East Coast Lagoon Food Village. Best known for satay, but there are also some other very popular stalls there. There are also 2 staff canteens at Changi Airport (that we know about) that are open to the public, and they’re also quite popular. I’m curious to see your take on those places. Happy Eating!
Mike thumping his hand on the table = the food is GOOD!! 😋
I know that "custard apple" as "atemóia" here in Brazil - it's creamy, sweet with a bit of sour that makes it even more delicious
We call it sitaphal in India and its available for only 2 months in a year.
It's not often that Mikey goes to somewhere I have been. Usually it is the other way around.
Tiong Baru Prawn Mee is elite. I try to get it every time I am in Singapore.
loving this series i Singapore! will be there next month and im so excited to check out all these spots
What a great presentation and representation of Singapore hawker center/ coffee shops...absoltely miss living there..many thanks for thoughtful youtube!!
You got me at Curry rice, squid curry, the Grandma Peanut cake .The peanut butter In the middle, was that sweetened with palm sugar? The Char Sui looked great.🤗 Thanks for sharing!
That meng chang kueh is not the typical one,it has peanut butter,so it's creamier. Normally there's only crushed peanuts mixture.
Always happy to see u back enjoying our local food!
We love you Mike!! I’ve been watching you since I was 14!
I would love to visit Singapore…the food looks delicious 😋🤗
Wow, what another great video. I will be in Singapore for couple of days. I love hawker centers and so much good food. I cannot decide what and where must eat...
I love your videos. I always watch with the captions on because my baby is usually sleeping so my phone is muted. Some of these generated captions are wild 😆
I will be going to Singapore next year with a list of all the places you've been to.
Also, congratulations on your marriage. It's been a long long time since I watched your videos.
Great video as always! Had me at the crispy prata! Thank you for your hard work.
You brighten my day!
I love it, do more noodle tour
its like i can smell the food coming through my headphones~ thanks mike chen.
Great video Mike, as always! By the way, CONGRATULATIONS on your wedding! Would love to see pics or a video!!!
God's richest blessings upon you two!
Bring your own cutlery Mike 😁👍🏼
Every time I watch your videos I get hungry 🤤 even if I already ate lol 😂 😊
This guy is very talented in describing normal hawker food as super delicious delights😅
I love that hawker center, so many great stalls
Loved the review of the custard apple at the end. Thanks Mike
Hi Mike, I live in Singapore.. It nice to see you try the Singapore local food
Woah!😮 this is all the food I like 😂 I usually wondering what to eat in hawker stalls but now I know 😁👍 Awesome recommendations Mike! 👍👍👍😁
Welcome back to singapore again mikey!!
Love your videos Mike 🎉
The fried sotong prawn noodle looks delicious! 🤤
Best TH-camr ever!! Keep going Mikey!!
Looks really delicious
I need a camp program to follow Mike to eat and work out to slim down . So I can proudly proclaim I slim down from eating!! 😝😁
Custard apple is my favourite fruit🤗🤗 those were quite large. That parata looked so crispy yet fluffy..I never saw them made so small..delicious and crunchy👌👌
We have those fruits in jamaica in the Caribbean as well, but we call them "sweet sop" not custard apple
The small paratha is called coin paratha
@@akeemallwood1312 great...I am from Trinidad and Tobago..🤗
Yeahhhh!!!! 🎉🎉🎉 That’s the right prata place in the neighbourhood!!! There’s always a long queue on Sat/Sun morning.
Mike makes me hungry everytime
Where I have lived we call them sugar apples. It is one of my favorite fruits. I have had many of them.
Just a tip... I feel that prata goes best with fish curry lol
Amen bro!
Try Bukit Timah Food Centre and Yuhua Food Centre if you have time. Lots of delicious hawker food there too.
I see new vlog. I click. I watch. I love you Mikey.
I just went to a Asian supermarket today got some childhood favorites I was in heaven
I love Mikey!!!
Whoa the food looks good 😋
Omg! I just had Loo’s Hainanese curry rice this morning! I Q for like 30min on a late Sunday morning
Tiong Bahru is great for breakfast in the early morning!, one of my favourite places to go
MAYBE MIKE YOU CAN TRY THE ONCE WITH SHORTER LINES AS WELL TO GIVE THEM OPPORTUNITY TO ALSO GET KNOWN! DON'T HAVE TO HELP OR ADVERTISE THOSE WITH LONG LINES, THEY ARE ALREADY KNOWN. WHO KNOWS YOU MIGHT JUST DISCOVER A BETTER ONE JUST BY GIVING ANOTHER FOOD STALL A CHANCE! :)
you did the prata! awesome!
You should try tree coconut nasi lemak at berseh food Center! It’s a hidden gem!
Welcome back to Singapore Mike!!!
Love ur video's i learn so much on ur channel, Ur my Sensei or Di Low. The Grannie cake looked good if i was high
Food looked great. We call the custard apples sugar apples on my island I miss the taste of those. 2.50 for noodles meat and soup WOW!
Finally...mike's newest video i've seen
Hey Mike, if you are still in Singapore. You should totally swing by to the east side. Just bedok alone, there's so much good food to be had...
Here are some of my favourites..
1) bedok interchange food center
2) bedok food center (opposite the bank)
3) blk 85 feng shan food center
4) simpang bedok food center
Just when I’m off to sleep.. Mike pops up with an amazing thumbnail and video! Love from India 🇮🇳
I hope you're still in SG this 1st wk of Nov. I wanna see you in person!!!!
Love watching you
But a plastic spoon will gouge the corners of your mouth, Mike! You were a trouper, soldiering on even with a cut inner lip with all the spicy and sour food you ate. Singapore is definitely on my Top 3 list of countries to visit in my lifetime for the food alone, now!
I love that Prada too
We also have that sticky noodles in the Philippines... We called it Lomi ...
How much cardio do you do before a full day of eating?
Miss going to tiong bahru hawker center. One of my fav place in spore
this curry rice looks delicious, will go and try it. I loved the one over at Maxwell the most, I had it for two decades but sadly they closed down due to poor business during circuit breaker. ever since they closed down, hardly could find any good curry rice.
Tiong Bahru Hawker Center is my favorite!
You go to Tiong Bahru Food Center but miss out on the famous "Jian Bo Shui Kueh"? It's steamed rice cakes with savoury preserved radish on top. Very yummy. Also where you were seated in the video, right behind you "Teck Seng Soya Bean Milk" has one of the yummiest handmade soya bean curd. Loo's Hainanese curry rice is over-rated, next time try "Beo Crescent Curry Rice" when it reopens in November.
Is this market near the MRT station?
@@chopsticksforlegs It's about 1 bus stop away from Tiong Bahru MRT or 8 minutes walk
Everything you ate seems all so good. Did you select only those that you like to be showed ? by the way, where did you buy the custard apple ?
U don't need to find d best hawker. My friends who live abroad for a long time find anything nice. The nuances r lost on them. U only have 2 days. Eat anywhere u r near at meal times. Coffeeshops will do.
Why am I watching this at 2:40AM in Singapore getting hungry now lol
Mike, how long is your stay in Singapore gonna be? It's already October and you're still here! Wow. Love you loving Singapore's food.
Until they stop paying him I guess
Mikey you are awesome. You show me new foods and make me proud to eat my own heritage food. Thank you for your work
You should do a bee hoon review. My mom used to get it at a hawker center when I lived there and I loved it
That heat keeps rising in my mouth 😂
Never heard about a custard apple in my life lol guess you learn something everyday
Yesss! Sin Ming Prata is so much better.
The fruit is called ATIS in the philippines and they are really great
I hope you bring a small umbrella with you as it's been raining a lot in singapore. For the wonton noodles you did not mix the sauce & noodles well some parts were not coated
Mike, hopefully you do some videos on fruits and vegetables. I never heard of a custard apple. There got to more. Can you do some videos shopping for these and explain their usage and history. Thanks Always lol
