@@Piggypuggy I indeed feel this sense of urgency. However, I'm not in a position to travel to SG any time soon. But I have an idea to preserve their fabulous food into the future: buy all kinds of meals and deepfreeze them in liquid nitrogen. At -180C, it'll keep for decades.
@@PaulaBean ha ha ha thats a good idea... but i really hope you can make a trip here not just to taste the nice food but also to have a feel of the good old peaceful neighbourhood lifestyle..... cheerz :)
Thank you for sharing...Sad to say that "Genuine Hawker Food" may become obsolete soon We Love them...I'm Eastern European & my husband is ex-Singaporean(Hainanese)- family left in the sixties due to the "Force Requisition" of their business shop/home in Bukit Timah...There were no CPF or Superannuation during my parent in-laws Time...Very sad Time for them!!!!!!! Australia
Those who frequent hawkers back in the 70s-80s will feel a sense of loss as these reminded us of childhood. So many of such hard working hawkers who dedicated their lives to a better Singapore have since retired without a trace.. thanks for watching 🥰
Wow nice place! Need to venture here one fine day lol. That vegetarian stall looks so nostalgic especially that zhai ghor! I can hardly find this kind nowadays. Now you see ones are those just thin and crisp and tasteless kind. I only have it when I was a kid from my place's hawker centre. That char bee hoon also looks like the one my hawker place have unfortunately the uncle had a fall and has to retire :-(
Sad hor? Most are already retired in the past 10yrs.. there really isn’t many of such dedicated old timers anymore. These days it’s all about raking in the profits as quickly as one can 🙁
Only been there a handful of times. And only remember eating the ckt and maybe prata. Small place and a lot of stalls not open. Very quiet and sleepy place. Thanks for the vid.
Hi Piggy! can tell wat buggy bus number go there? Slow n steady?😅 Oops! Sorry Sir Piggy, old hawker Advocate King !Took 2nd lòok n saw 121 n 272 bus! Must be from harbour front lah! Tq ,can't wait to eat on 3rd Oct wen I can hv off day!
If I'm not wrong, Take MRT to Tiong Bahru Station, when you exit the MRT station and take the escalator, your left would be MacDonald, your right would be the bus stop. Take 121 at that bus stop and either get off at Blk 27 (14291) and walk to the market or a longer ride in the bus but directly outside the market, Blk 36 Mkt/Fc (14489).
Haha sorry Daniel.. piggy here usually drives there.. but of late try to scout for the bus number to reach there. Maybe I should put in the Google maps location in the description box too.. thanks for supporting our hawkers my friend
Will taste good as only uses pork oil and price is reasonable.will taste it soon,as i dislike vegetable oil and i will try to avoid any food fried with vegetable oil.thank you for sharing.
There's couple of char kuey tiao stalls that I found to like cooking plate by plate. Chinatown Hill Street Fried Kway Tiao #02-32 red sign board (prepare to queue) and Old Airport Road more Penang style kind.
Piggy my dear, I was thinking of starting on an early morning stroll along the Southern Ridges from the Telok Blangah Crescent Market (My notions of doing this same journey earlier this year disappeared in a 7:00 cloud burst that had water gushing down Keong Saik Rd). I have seen a good review of pau available at TB Crescent and thought it might be an option. But Vegetarian Delight at TB Rise that you review here looks very good. There only seems to be 500mt between the two markets so they are much the same to me. Any thoughts on the best market to start my journey considering that it is the celebration of Singapore Hawker culture I'm looking for rather than the latest Instagram hip/hit spot? Warmly Dr M
Hello Dr M 😀 I'd suggest a hydrated morning walk to work up and appetite for a heavy brunch.. you can start off at this location at Hort park.. past all the tree top walks around gillman barracks.. then to Henderson waves.. maps.app.goo.gl/4D1o7iZNcspvGReaA?g_st=ic Before decensding to the foot of telok blangah hills where it's not too far from TB crescent or rise.. maps.app.goo.gl/uToJSvgZxdvAS6bB9?g_st=ic Go easy on the char Kway Teow.. it's oily enough to set you back for the next few hours 😅
Both TB crescent and rise are of about similar genisis if around 1975.. but rise retains more of the original hawkers as there aren't much newer housings around. Given that.. you'd also find it alot quieter as there's usually just a few old folks with a few good stalls.. but I kinda enjoy the charm of it's almost forgotten existence.. just space out after a good meal
Mate, this looks like a top place to become a regular. Shame about all the young folk moving away, is it too far from a train station? Is it difficult to commute to work? Being from Perth, I do wonder what the maximum distances must be
Yeah.. it's a little off the subway lines.. gotta get there by the traditional way with a feeder bus from the nearby interchange or train station. Then again Singapore is so tiny.. getting from A to B would be under and hour. Hows life in Perth mate? If I'm living there... I might toy with the idea of having a high BTU gas station and a giant wok in the backyard 😂 Back yard tze char
I see you found our favourite vegetarian beehoon! Their tau kee very nice right? We love it. Always ask them to sell us a few more pieces but they won't give in 🤣
@@Piggypuggy yes. Shes like those Jalan Kukoh hawkers you interviewed. Very chatty and will tell you about the history. Sure will treat you drink like how she always treat the old folks around the estate. Shes there like almost 50 years
sg brightest r food preparation specialist..trumps doctors, engineers, accountants etc.. close universities n open tuckshops teaching hawkers' food theory
Going , going , GONE ! I am wondering how foreigners are allowed to hawk in Singapore 🇸🇬. Visit any foodcourt , coffee shop to see for yourself . Are the authorities closing One eye !!
Telok Blangah Rise is really one of the last surviving old HDB estates. The food there is really real siah. Thanks for this!
I almost forgotten about Telok Blangah rise.. 😅
So nostalgic...used to be my playground. Thanks for tracing the old hawkers
18:55 even the music in the background is so nostalgic. New food centres does not hv these kinda vibes anymore. If only we can freeze time...
Yeah.. I felt like sitting there sipping Kopi and really kick back.. relax and savour that feeling
Thank you for documenting this hawker centre. If I was in Singapore, I'd pay it a visit!
Please come soon.. 😅😂
Most original 70s hawkers are now in their 70-80s

love watching your videos especially the old hawker centers but damn you sure can put away all that food lol 1 meal and i'd be exploding lol
I AM Exploding 😂
I always tell myself.. 'you don't have to finish it.. you're way past your prime..'
But somehow always end up polishing everything 😅

Hafiz, lived near there, but that again can home cooked ourselves,Nowadays depend on individual spending power.
Only been there a handful of times. And only remember eating the ckt and maybe prata. Small place and a lot of stalls not open. Very quiet and sleepy place. Thanks for the vid.
Yeah.. looks super sleepy..
But I’ll be back just for CKT and duck noodles

Thank you and yes! No veg oil pls.. although I still use veg oil at home 😢 coz it’s available from supermarket
The CKT stall still insists on cooking each order individually. Must visit someday when I’m back home.
There's couple of char kuey tiao stalls that I found to like cooking plate by plate. Chinatown Hill Street Fried Kway Tiao #02-32 red sign board (prepare to queue) and Old Airport Road more Penang style kind.
Only the very old timers still take their time to fry up a plate
