  • Food is one of the main reasons, if not the primary reason, that I fell in love with Singapore when I lived here for almost 3 years. The country has so many food options to experience on every street, alley, and corner.
    The list of food options is almost endless it feels but if I had to choose my personal Top 5 + Dessert that I always HAVE TO eat whenever I come back to this beautiful country, it is the items that I cover in this video!

    3/18/2024 UPDATE: A lot of comments from viewers correcting me about calling the Wonton Mee "Malaysian style". It was my mistake as I was misinformed. As much as I like comments and it boosts my video ratings on TH-cam's algorithm, hopefully this helps reduce some of the excessive comments about it from new viewers. LOL
    These are my PERSONAL top foods I love to eat whenever I come back to this beautiful country that I once lived in for almost 3 years. What are some of yours?
    P.S. Let's remember that food is subjective and not everyone's tastebuds are the same. If any of the food & places I personally enjoy don't align with your opinions, I totally respect that. Just share where you would go so that viewers (including myself) watching / reading can get some value from it for future visits!

      Wanton Mee is common in Malaysia as well. However, their dry version is primarily dark soya sauce based. This is Singapore style and we have local mee manufacturers in Singapore and don't source from Malaysia.
      The wanton mee in Hong Kong is soup version only and their wantons are with prawns.

      Wantan noodles in Singapore, there are 2 versions, the one type which is darker in color using dark soy sauce is the Malaysian version while the Singapore type is the one without the dark soy sauce and the meat dumpling is boiled and not deep-fried only the Malaysian version meat dumplings are deep-fried.

    That's so true! Even as a Singaporean, I love watching videos of people exploring food places in Singapore. It's like rediscovering the magic of Singaporean cuisine through someone else's eyes. And you're so right-no matter how far we roam, nothing quite matches the joy of returning home and indulging in our beloved local flavors. It's those familiar tastes and comforting dishes that make Singapore feel like home, no matter where we are in the world. Can't beat that feeling of heading straight for our go-to food spots as soon as we're back home! Returning to Singapore after a long trip always sparks a craving for certain dishes. Kuay Chap, with its wide kway teow noodles in a rich broth, accompanied by tender meats, is a must for that comforting taste of home. And nothing beats the hearty warmth of Pig's Organ Soup! Then there's Mutton Satay, Hokkien Mee, Big Prawn Noodles, Chee Cheong Fun, and Tiong Bahru Chwee Kway-each dish a delicious reminder of the diverse flavors that make Singapore's food scene so special! 🇸🇬🍲🍜🍚🍴

    Many tourists complain about petty stuff, no hair nets , gloves etc., well I've was stationed overseas for over 14 years total. Of course it wasn't all at the same time. I spent 9 great days in Hong Kong in1966 and I ate every day at the street vendors, I would walk down a street looking when I saw a meal that looked good I would sit a the small table and chair point at the food and it would be cooked up. I didn't get sick once until I ate at the R Thai af base in northern Thailand .That place looked immaculate but I spent 3 days sick as a dog from the food not being cooked properly.

    If possible, do go to hawker centres as they are more friendly priced and have some gems! Someone mentioned Bedok… Bedok 85/Fengshan food centre is pretty well established. Toa Payoh Lorong 8 food centre has a lot of nice stalls too.

    frog leg porridge with kangkong, a cultured list indeed
    its rare to see people who didn't grow up in SEA be willing to try the less popular types of meat
    edit:
    i know that bai ji fan(white chicken rice) is the short-formed version from the origin of the name which is 白斩鸡(bai zhan ji, white chopped chicken)
    but i actually don't know why we translated it to steamed chicken in english
    perhaps it might simply be due to our ancestors poor english skills back in the day and the term simply stuck around despite knowing that white chicken is not steamed but poached
    another dish that has translation error is "carrot cake" , which is actually made from radishes and not carrots (radish are called white carrots in chinese)

      You're totally right and I kept calling it "steamed" too in another video even though I always knew it was aka boiled/poached. When I first tried "carrot cake" many years back, I always wondered why it was called that too because growing up eating something similar in Cantonese cuisines, it was always known to me as turnip cake.

    Think TH-camr got conned at Geylang Lorong 9 frog congee stall. $46 is way too expensive for two frogs and a plate of Kang Kong. Usually, when you order 2 frogs, they’ll add one free frog. Price for the 3 frogs should be less than $20, plain congee will cost about $5 or less (?) and Kang Kong cost between $8-$12. Total would cost less than $40, possibly around $35

The boss of Ah Tai used to work at Tian Tian before they started to batch produce their stuff (aka "industrialisation") and left to open his own shop because he insists on fresh production of the food he sells. Many people have also reviewed that they prefer his chicken rice over Tian Tian's.
