- Hey guys, few weeks ago, I managed to visit Takapuna Sunday market just before going into lockdown. The last time I went there was probably 12-15 years ago so it was interesting to see how it's changed and try some street food. Also do you think it'll be a good idea to sell salted egg chips here 😂
thanks for sharing
What's with the ( make yishun great again ) lol... cheers bro
Its my favourite souvenir from SG ❤😂
yishun damn dangerous sia!!! lol!
Lol. Im a Yishunian. Thanks for that. 😂
@@swordtail I also sia! that’s why we all know yishun like the super dangerous it’s different from the rest of singapore
That red hat sucked and reminded me of that dumb dumb joking aside you have a wry sense of humor. It's all good. ❤️😏
If you want amazing food !! Try the Thai street food stall at Clevedon farmers market!! Omg to die for!!
Hey Dale thank you for the recommendation!
Thanks for promoting Yishun, the best neighbourhood in Singapore, in New Zealand for us! :) Wa, the winds are savage there.
Hahahaha yeah I volunteer to be the official Yishun ambassador with this hat in NZ😎
@@ReddotDiaries where did you cap from? Thanks in advance.

Hahaha thanks bro my favourite souvenir from SG!
I moved home two years five months, didn't think I miss Singapore till you mentioned some of the stuff. I should have a Joo Chiat cap 🧢😊👍🏼 stay chatty and show us more Kiwi now 😊
Haha did you live in Joo Chiat? Maybe you can get a birds of paradise cap 😅 yeah I really enjoyed living in SG and miss many things from there. Will try to travel more once lockdown is eased here!
@@ReddotDiaries Yea, I lived in Joo Chiat. So many good and famous food stall 😊👍🏼 My favourite is otah. Missing East Coast Park.
Keep your entertaining videos coming, especially to show how NZ life is like. Your Singaporean accent is strong!
Hey Desmond! thank you! haha I think my accent is in my blood now...😅
"Make Yishun Great Again" cap made me laugh so much! You made my day 🤣
That "Eh halo" at donut stall 🤣
Haha cannot change how I speak la
Steve, really really missed your video.
Pls keep it coming so we know you are fine and all of us who cares for you can stop worrying. Can? Each time your video pop up, I will start worrying and wondering are you doing fine. 🙏
In the early seventies the only choices to eat out in Takapuna were Tony's Steak restaurant and another Steak restaurant in Hurstmere Rd plus the Mon Desir Hotel .There was a fish and chip shop in Lake road that had a small dining room [ less than $4 for a meal ] .There was a Chinese take away in lake rd . Hotels closed at 10pm and everyone tried to get into the House Bar at the Mon Desir to drink after hours. .
Make YISHUN great again... 🤣🤣🤣
Such an interesting video introducing good food stuff! Frankly, I never thought of visiting NZ but it could be an option in near future! Love ur cap bro! Solid lah!
Thank you! Hope you'll visit once borders open up 😊
Make Yishun great again hahahaha
-from a kiwi in Singapore
Hahahaha any more dramas at Yishun lately? It's as hot as sg in NZ today 😣
Thank you for showing us this. I miss the Pasar Malam in SG...
Hey Anna! thank you! I miss the market in geylang also.. and ramly burger!!
If I can find mee pok tah in Australia, I'd pay for it! Even if its $14!
Wah really meh Australia so ex?
@@ReddotDiaries ya man... Laksa is $16. So far no one has made MPT.
Hahaha love the cap! 😆😆😆
Haha thank you Damon. So glad I got it before I left 😆
you should start selling kopi & kaya toast at the market lol
You know I was thinking about it too actually!
Haha make yishun great again! Fantastic vlog!
Hey! haha Yishun is already great in my heart. Thankyou!
Thank you Steve for the video. I can relate so much with you! I live near Pelikat and I was living in Australia for about 12 years. Now stucked in Singapore. I miss those Sunday Farmers markets and second-hand stuff markets. Vietnamese Pho was a lifesaver in windy Melbourne while I was there. I thought of selling Nasi Lemak in Melbourne! Yes bring on the ideas and I can sell them when I go back to Aussie land ;)
Hey Khee, thank you for watching and leaving a comment! how is my old neighourhood doing? I miss taking a stroll at the pcn and going to coffee shops there... I think I want to try selling the salted egg chips there! :) I'll let you know how it goes!
Yishun residence here.. love your cap!!!
Hey! Love this vid! Look at those mouthwatering food at the Takapuna Market, 🤤🤤🤤 especially the beef pho and the jumbo mussels fritters… 😋🤤🤤🤤 The place is fur kids friendly too, awesome^^🐾👍❤️ Will look for this place with empty stomach if I were to visit New Zealand! 😛😝 Thanks for bringing us along your visit!!! 😊
Hey Teddy! They were nice but honestly nothing compared to hawker centre! There are better places than here to fill your stomach when you come to NZ la just lemme know 😂
Wow nice cap haha!food looks delicious take care Steve and stay safe ya😃hope to see your next video again👍
Hey! how are you? Yeah the food here was quite nice. We are still in lockdown here but hopefully it'll be over soon and the market will open again
Wahahaha! I love that cap! ✌🏻😁✌🏻 Yishunite here! 😁😁😁 Awesome market, it’s like our pasar malam. Do stay safe and keep warm. 🤗
Hey Rosey hahahahah yishunite 😂😂😂😂 stay safe and take care!
I love your cap man 👍
Haha thanks bro I love it
Haha, make Yishun great again.. that's the highlight of the video bro 🤣
I remembered the time I went to NZ, I saw the Road sign "Woodlands" and "Queenstown" it's seem Singapore alway by your side bro🤣
Hahaha guess what, the other day I found Mountbatten road near my house too!
Food looks Good😋😋😋
Haha I think the salted egg chips may create a scene there😂 people will be curious since it’s not common!
Yeah I was thinking that too. How to import ah 🤔
@@ReddotDiaries I was thinking you can email Irvin’s and ask them if they would be interested for business in NZ though:) pretty sure that they would also wanna look into this opportunity
Brings back memories. Used to live in the North Shore thirty years ago, back when I was a student in Auckland! Takapuna Mkts was my favourite weekend haunt as there was not much else to do! Haha, everything still looks the same!! Hey, you should check out Otara Markets on a Saturday when Auckland opens up again. I'm sure it's as amazing now as it was way back then!
Hey Sharon, wah 30 years ago I was in sec school back then and my dad would bring us there every sunday for the same reason! Yeah it hasn't changed much except that there's less of antique/vintage stuff. Have heard about that market only recently so will visit for sure once the lockdown is over. Thanks Sharon!
Love your videos! I went to NZ for 6 months for a student exchange and I miss NZ so much! Always wanted to live in NZ - however I made the decision to settle down w my bf in SG gng down the traditional BTO path... Seeing your videos makes me feel like I teleported back there. Looking forward to more videos from you :)
Hey Kimberly! Well I guess both countries have their pros and cons.. but if you really enjoyed NZ I'm sure there will always be a way for you to make NZ home one day! In NZ many young couples struggle to pay rent and its almost impossible to buy a house in Auckland on an average income nowadays.. so I guess in that sense sg is much better with the bto system and all. Anyways thanks for watching and take care!!
LOL, great cap you have there. MYGA!
Hahaha thank you. I love it
I love the cap…! 😆😆
Thanks for the shoutout to my neighbourhood.. 😄😄
Hahaha here to promote Yishun and Singapore! 😄
Haha love your cap Steve! And the mussel fritter looks so good😋😋
Stay safe and take good care! 🤗
Hey Esther how are you? Haha thanks I love this cap too. So glad I managed to get it haha take care and stay safe!
Used to stay one week in New Plymouth with my buddy many years back, thank you for sharing 1
Wow I've never been to New Plymouth before. What was it like over there?
@@ReddotDiaries It was great, do visit Mt Egmont National Park. In Auckland where you reside, there's a Karekare Beach where the movie "The Piano" was shot, nice place.
The food here look delicious and the atmosphere looks very different from my home.
Yes the food here was very nice. Auckland has many markets so hope you can visit one day!
Great to see ya out at airy, breezy spots! We're stuck again!
Hey man how are you? What??! Is there another cb? Nz is already in lockdowm bro
@@ReddotDiaries Substantively yes, CB label aside... FOMO syndrome continues through superfluous measures.
They also sell the salted egg chips in America. So maybe you can contact Irvins to distribute the chips in NZ? Oh and they made salted egg instant noodles as well! Maybe you can sell both!
Hey Michele, I was thinking of getting some to try selling at the market and see how it goes. I think it'll be popular here actually. And how about those noodles!? I wanna try them toooo
Nice place to visit👍🏻
Hey Florence! yes this market was quite nice! 😋
Awesome stuff! You should come to the mangere market after lockdown, some awesome food from all over the world!
hey David, yes I've heard about the amazing food at that market. Cant wait for this lockdown to be over soon..!
Nice video..reminds me a lot about NZ…people are so friendly unlike once other than that everyone is super friendly. Salted egg fish skins might works.. apparently a lot of foreigners like it..my US friend likes it..
Hey Jamie! yes most NZers area very nice and friendly to Asians. I think I want to try selling a few at the market too! It'll be interesting to see if they like it. I think they will!
That “Make Yishun Great Again” cap hahaha
I wonder if fried carrot cake will sell there? Lots of nice food at the market.
Interestingly they didn't have any SG or MY food there at all. Got good potential I think
wah nz now like pre covid time normal living already.
Great to see you are doing well! Sending love from Sunny Singapore near Pelikat
Ahhhhh How's my old neighbourhood? Please say hello to mala and turtle boss if you ever visit coffee shop there 😂
You even sound Singaporean. Next time I am in NZ I must check out markets like these
Haha thanks 😅 yes there are more markets here too in NZ. Must visit!!
This market is like the Pasar Malam (night market) in Singapore during the 80s' and it only operates during the week ends.
The pancake and the donuts looks yummy 😋
Yeah the donut was very nice especially in the cold weather 😋
Wow yummy food
Hey Steven! Yeah it was very yummy!
Haha your cap ha?! What?! Make Yishun great again ? Why liddat?
Hahaha It's my favourite souvenir from SG la
Awesome video! Make me hungry after watching haha 😄 Dear brother Steve stay safe and healthy!
Hey Dan thank you! Try that place in joo chiat if you haven't been there already. Take care bro!
@@ReddotDiaries Hey Steve, Sad to say I have yet try but I will do so soon. You too take care and stay safe 🙂
I'm glad you still sound as Singaporean as can be. Don't lose your 'lah's ok? Hehe.
Hey! haha NO LA. It feels more comfortable to speak that way for me hahaha
Interesting! Hope you are having a more relaxed life over there. You really can eat! 좋은 식욕. Can I say that for a good appetite?
Hey! how are you?! Definitely more stressful life here with studying but I'm enjoying it! hehe yes I can be very greedy with food and keep eating until I vomit 😂😂😂
Good to see that you are doing well, Steve. When you said ‘we’ I thought your mom was with you. Oh.. surprised that there’s no compulsion to wear mask. Situation in Singapore is very bad now with many daily cases & some are unlinked ! All the best to you 👍
yea! 555 cases locally
Hey Mandy, I saw it went even above 600 today I think. omg..but I think that's smth every country will have to go through at some stage. Take care and stay safe!
😨😨😨
I ❤️ Sunday markets. They could give a lot of beef in Pho since beef is cheap in NZ. Yum!
Hey Youme! Yeah at first I thought it was too much at $14 but lots of beef so worth it la 😂
Food in NZ is pretty expensive
Make Yishun great again.😋😋😋 Yummy taste
Hey Richard, wore that hat proudly at the market that day!😄
It reminds me..Thursday night 🌙 that's this kind of street market..hehe..anyway, long time no see..How's your going?
What a wonderful hat you have!!!
Hahaha thanks Joyce. I absolutely love this hat
Haiyo the donut scene so cute! If all plans fail over there, can just come back 🇸🇬 right haha 🤭
Hahahaha actually that's probably the best option for me 😂😂😂
Hi Steve I think this Sunday market just next to lake rd, there used to have one burgerking around the carpark but sadly no more, anyway cheers for the upload!
Hey there, wait the burgerking is gone?!! that was my high school hangout place! and the shore city!
i dont know hows the taste of NZlanders but we love it here (salted egg chips) of course depends on the brand. you can let some of them try first
I went there when I was living in Auckland but I moved about 3 months ago to singapore... :(
It is Joo chiat
I think
@UCuGheY6L3WsbJNWbHcrTbEw I live near joo chiat so there is also a good fried wonton place there.
Haha I just replied on my personal yt account 😅 yes that restaurant is joo chiat. Very nice place. You're in the exact opposite situation as me bro! NZ as you know is in lockdown and looks like it'll be like that for a while too..
Aiyoo
Wa seh still have your singlish slang xia
Haha it's in my blood now😂
I think I will paste the link to this video in response to the Facebook trolls who keep commenting that Singapore has a high cost of living 😁 Gosh. It can easily cost NZ$100 just to go to a Pasar Malam in Auckland 😅
Hey! I don't know why some people say that unless you always want to dine at restaurant and stay at fancy condo. Where else in the world can you get a good meal below $5 and have so many choices somemore? Yes spending $50, $100 in NZ can happen very fast..
May be u can try selling the mala fry noodles or something u learn from a stall at the Sunday Market before u left Sg.
hey I think that might be a too complicated but maybe can try selling kaya toast and kopi. Or salted egg chips! Been thinking about few ideas
@@ReddotDiaries u may wanna try selling Roti John.
Similar to what you can find in Australia too. By the way, what they are selling there are cheaper than what you can find in the stores in the city and etc??
Hey, there was a guy selling household detergent etc at cheaper price. A bit similar to those shops that are always on fire sale in sg that sell parallel imported stuff from Thailand etc. I think the fruits/vegetables are not that much cheaper than supermarkets but probably more fresh
You should go to otahuhu to try Tongan food 😋 yummy well when alert level 4 lifts keep on doing the Mahi
Hey that honestly sounds like a GREAT IDEA!! I've never tried Tongan food my whole life. What's the restaurant called?
@@ReddotDiaries many there the entire stretch mate just go and sample ..also try palusami Samoan dish
the life without mask seems so peaceful : )
When I was in NZ many years ago for 2 weeks, the ppl were generally quite polite. But I nearly got punched in the face at Queen St by (the usual ppl who tend to join gangs) in mid day with tons of ppl all around. Then I went to the KFC to get a meal and the same type of ppl actually ate my meal while I went to the toilet to wash my hands. I have never returned to NZ since. I prefer big cities.
Hey Alvin I'm so sorry to hear that happened to you. That kind of incident helps you realise just how safe Singapore is and how easy it is for us to take it for granted. I've caught myself doing things like going for a walk at night, leaving my belongings on a table overseas then realising that I'm not in SG anymore. Don't mean to shine NZ in a bad light but I've had many similar experiences growing up in NZ in malls, school and definitely Queen Street. But really most people in NZ are very nice and kind and you just need to avoid certain places and certain times... I hope you'll still visit NZ one day again. BTW those people eating your chicken while you went toilet is crazy man. Never heard that happen to anyone 😭
@@ReddotDiaries Yo bro, why apologise for sthing that's not even linked to you? Have a good day~
Hi Alvin I been to NZ 3 times, and my experience most if not all New Zealanders are friendly.
Mate,this cant be 6 days ago,we in level 4 covid restrictions? Or is it different on the other side of the bridge?
Hahaha this was before the lockdown 😂
whoa can use phone as paywave machine!!!
haha yeah I was surprised to see that much high tech in NZ😂
Your cap tho....Lol
I bet the organic veges are cheap huh?
Hahahaha why you call pasar malam. 😀it is pasar minggu. I just loved Sunday Markets.
make yishun great again !!! HAHAHAHA
Hahaha it's my favourite hat!
Yummy 🤤!
hehe it was! :)
Here's an idea.
How about you make videos about places that you think Singaporeans would love to visit and eat? Knowing SG taste buds and stingy with our money, you could recommend places. :) You can tag these videos, so it's easy for Singaporeans (actually all of your subscribers as well) can filter and follow up.
Hey, that is a great idea and something I would love to do! Even though I grew up here, I want to 'rediscover' NZ with sporean's perspective and share that with you guys. It can be just nice when the bubble opens up, you guys can watch and come to NZ hehe
No need mask eh
Yah that was before the lockdown but I don't know if they'll go back to no mask again..
Wow Steve, this vlog reminds me of the Christmas market, Korea/Japan street market with all the different delicious food and shopping on a cooling day. That's a gd idea to sell the salted egg chips there, sure make $ ah. Think mala food also will be hot seller. Haha
Hey how are you?! Actually i was thinking the same abour xmas market when i went there but not as much peole and hustle and bustle at this market. Hahaha mala and salted egg will confirm sell well here. Im seriously considering it!
Hahaha bruhhh Making yishun famous overseas ahh lol
Hahaha yah man making yishun world famous 😆
Thank you steve. Its nice to see you enjoy the sunday market. Similar to Australia. Follow your next video. 👍😂😍😍
Hey thank you! they're all closed now because of lockdown but hoping it will go back to normal soon here..! take care:)
$14..wow…
Hey Joe, yah but that seems to be the normal price here. Most meals will cost at least $15 unless it's like a small sandwich or a pie or smth..
How's school? Flying yet? Remember to record hor!
Hey JunLong :) the school has been closed since the lockdown so we've been doing ground school over zoom..looks like it'll still be a while before we can fly :(
Steve ))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) 🤗
Hey Hsuling!! :))☺️
Your cap 😆
Hahaha I love it. My favourite hat ☺️
