    oh hey! so i used to be a food hygiene officer and i was assigned to do all 100+ stalls at hong lim center, chinatown. the whole place is one of the cleanest hawker centers there is and i especially remember eddy being so kind ^__^ he offered me a free late lunch but i refused as it was during the pandemic and wouldnt want him to lose money. another stall that was super popular but still very humble were some curry stalls near the front on the second floor.

      @@strictlydumpling oh how lovely to get a reply! may i recommend haig rd market and food center the next time you come to singapore? it has a lot of malay and indian cuisines, plus a cantonese cuisine stall operated by a former 5 star chef from hong kong (it's called chef chik, #01-36) best you go before the lunch rush though!

    These recent Singapore videos remind me of the Mikey Chen I first started watching a number of years ago. It's like a return to the classic Mikey that I know and love - just random great food and lots of excitement. My wife and I are heading to Singapore next month. I can't wait! Keep these great videos coming. If you get a chance head to Balestier Road and check out all the great food places there.

    I really hope you didn’t leave Singapore without trying the other half of their cuisine, the blend of Malay-Indian dishes. I haven’t seen you try a single dish that isn’t Chinese or Japanese. Not that I don’t enjoy these videos but Singapore has so much to offer and much of the western world isn’t as familiar with Malaysian food as it is with Chinese. It’d be nice to have more diversity in food choices that you share to the channel.

    Unagi is probably the best kept secret in Japanese cuisine. I would chose this dish over sushi or wagyu steak any day. Contrary to what you would imagine, it is the least fishiest tasting fish, when grilled Japanese style. You don’t want a fusion style for Unagi, just stick to traditional Japanese grilling with sweet tare sauce and Japanese peppercorn sansho. If you check out major western RUclipsrs that live in Japan, almost all of them will tell you that this is the most underrated Japanese food. It’s expensive, but totally worth it.
