U can find cheap food in local hawker center and so-call coffee shop. Even when they are cheaper it don't compromise in term of the taste and quality. Welcome to Singapore and enjoy!
Well I’m glad many RUclipsrs are visiting Singapore this few months I’m happy to see that RUclipsrs finally notice my country I hope u come and visit again and hope u enjoy the view and everything else :)
Hi , Welcome to Singapore. Lau Pa Sat is actually directly translated from Hokkien , a dialect meaning Lau = Old n Pa Sat = Market. Enjoy Singapore Cheers
To be honest, I have lived in London for over a year in Canary Wharf with my partner and there are many things in Singapore which are cheaper than London. Transportation is very expensive in the UK and food wise, you can get a decent meal for like SGD 3 which is like less than GBP 2. I don't think you can find in the UK. Also for coffee, try the local Kopi (coffee in local Hokkien dialect) and costs like SGD 1ish.
LAU pa Sat is a 200yr old structur build during British colonial time. The name meant Old Market.. it was the central market when vege seafood n overseas products that farmers n the British ship bring in to be distributed inlands.
There are also many Chinese in Malaysia because before independence they were under the British as workers and got citizenship here but they are still not natives here
4 : 38 In Malaysia places like this is called Medan Selera (Food Center). Anyway enjoy your time in Singapore, it looks so much different now. So many new buildings I don't recognize. I love the chicken rice in Singapore, when I was growing up Malaysians always said Singapore have the best chicken rice. Of coz there is so much more.
Lau Pasat is a Chinese Hokkien Dialect literally meaning 'Old Market'. It used to be a 'wet' market selling meat, fish and vegetables, and located right in the middle of Singapore's financial district. Hence, it is probably more lucrative to turn it into a food court.
Happy birthday Skye. Huge celebrations by the looks. It's been a while since I tuned in and I thought I'd congratulate you on some substantial channel growth which is soooo deserved. Last time I watched a video of yours (been otherwise occupied) you were in North Vietnam racing around that magnificent road having a great time, and the subbies just under 9k. Now doubled - just wow. Good on you Skye ! I'm so happy for you 🤩
Try eating n drink coffee from our hawker centre next time. It's cheap n nice. Remember to request the taste you want for your coffee when u r there. Exp...less/more sweet, with / without sugar , milk, ice or no ice...Ur choice . You won't regret.
Hi. Love your video guys. Actually there are more affordable coffee and foods in Singapore but located ard the local neighbourhood / residential parts. Still, hope you all are still enjoying yourself here.
Prices depend on where and what you buy. You could buy coffee at $1-$2.50 from coffeeshops/hawkers. If you want bistro kind of coffee, prepare to folk out $4.50 and above.
8:23 That's Teh Tarik (pulled tea). It's done to lower the tea's temperature. You came at a good time, because even though it's the rainy season, keeping you nice and cool with those cloudy skies, it didn't actually rain, as it would have lasted hours, ruining your day. I guess the weather made nice for your birthday!
@@SkyeSamuels Oh, I see, no wonder there are so many salty Malaysian and some of them pretend to be singaporean in the comments section bad-mouthing Singapore 🙄
Glad u had a good time celebrating your 25th bday. I assume your female friend is somewhat familiar with the local spots in SG? I see that u spent most of yr time in the Central Business District. Perhaps next time u come, try to avoid the more expensive downtown spots where prices are understably more "expensive". Just take a few MRT stations down the line (East?) where u will find more variety and less-expensive food and drinks. Overall - glad u came.
U guys should eat at maxwell nearby to cbd area. The food u ate at gardens by the bay is expensive and not nice. Maxwell is cheaper. U guys should do some research
Huhuhu...i think you should stay and work in Johor, Malaysia or you can plan your retirement in Malaysia...you can go to Singapore everyday if you stay at Johor Bharu...Singapore is definitely way cleaner and more developed, but it's so small and the living cost is insane especially in terms of property like a house...even Singaporeans usually shopping in Johor Bharu 😂😂
@@SkyeSamuels that's why a lot of Malaysians work there in Singapore and spend their hard earn money across the causeway in JB...😆🤭. Anyway historically Singapore was once part of Malaysia and was separated in 1965. The place you went to called "Lau Pa Sat" from Hokkien Chinese dialect translation in English means "Old Market". The location is nearby Raffles MRT station. Lastly Happy Birthday to you 😊 (\_/) (•_•) / >🎂
Next time visit the heartland more rather than the tourist attractions that way you can compare the difference and the prices. Added in - feel free to roam any time of the day or night its safe even for single girl. BTW belated Happy B'day to you.
If only I'm with u guys I will let u go thru what a normal Singaporeans go thru in their daily lives. Having breakfast/lunch/dinner at HAWKERS CENTRE. How locals living n or go shopping within their neighbourhood housing estates. It's much cheaper than the city area God's grace and blessings be upon you and your family tc n b safe. 🌹
It's expensive because you were visiting all the touristy areas and paying much higher than it's needed. There are much cheaper options for locals and people in the know.
Welcome to Singapore! For cheaper food n drink do visit the many hawker centres in places like Geylang Serai,Bedok or Tiong Bahru. Clean,more varieties n less costly.
Hey there beauty ..great very capturing vlog of spore.. i see you like KL and malaysia more.. but you have not been to Genting malaysia..cameroon highland, labuan, sabah and sarawak islands in east malaysia... you have not been to melakka or the malay inland regions.. you gotta explore !
Singapore food is considered cheap compared with advanced counties. One thing to note unlike other southeast Asia countries, you don't need to be surprised how advanced they are. They know they are first world country. Previously Singaporeans look up Caucasian but not now so please behave well here in Singapore.
The population of Singapore before independence was Malay after the Chinese were brought by the British and they became a larger population there than the Malays nation
The Brits didn’t bring the Chinese over, it was Zheng’he from the Ming Dynasty China. When the Portuguese and the Dutch came before the Brits, it was recorded that there were already Chinese settlers in old Singapore and the surrounding lands.
You got it wrong bro, I'm Malay and very well aware that Chinese immigrants were already here way before that. We're a port town for traders for centuries.
The British didn't "bring" the Chinese here.. The Chinese like the indians came here to work/trade .. Just like Malaysians come into Singapore to work nowadays. Money.. money literally makes the world run regardless of which era.
If you want too know Singapore actually Malay land but after Their independence formed the country and the Chinese population dominated Singapore population Malay at Singapore maybe just 20 % like that even their muslim mejority Not wear hijab
Lived there as as a global backpacker years ago it was good simple living Satay, Bugis Street, Hilli Crab and the rest....now in Myanmar...... but find Singapore a clean dull boring Police State place oriented around money! Ideal for newly arrivals in Asia.
In SG everything is artificial, nobody true, depression all over, a harsh routine to prolong the consumerism of malls with air conditioning, Malaysia deserved better, the port ($ and transport bizz) is the key of this story. It is a small artificial box with low-cost employees from poor Asian countries of surrounding real countries. After this, we should see that high QIs, are served by the lows ones. The same system as the ships of cruises
U depress? Im not...im still kicking after 60 yrs..which country in the world where u go where you are free from the care of daily lives tell me? "Problems" will exist in any country n as long as we are alive. Money doesn't bring true happiness as I just had a chat with a close relatives who owns a few properties ,who didn't work much all his life but unfortunately he's still not happy n if I can be honest about it, I believe im a much happier person than him even though i possess only a very tiny small fraction of his status n lives in a HDB with no other property in my name. Hope you get over your depression soon.
Artificial ? but the money I earn n hold in my hands is not Artificial...the happiness I possess is not Artificial...I think Artificial should be those who hides behind a big car, big house, nice clothes, lots of money n maybe a nice position in a big corporation n pretend to be happy when they are not but deep down feel empty. Happiness should be from within you n not rely on the exterior to determine your happiness...maybe thought they can be happy by buying a big car or a nice expensive watch but after a while, they are back to feeling down again
@@CrosbyStill I'm not depressed, i live in Monaco and summer time i'm in my Apartment in Lausanne. An HDB for 99 years you got? well, good luck, so, sometimes i come in SG and Macau, but no longer living there. Have a nice day là !!
@@joamiraclesound9387 well u can live in a million dollar home or country n can still feel unhappy. My happiness isnt determined by what house or country i live in. Well if monaco or some unartificial country makes u happy then good luck to u too.
Malaysia is nice but after being robbed in broad daylight in KL 50 years ago I vowed never to set foot again. Until today the problem seems never solved.
Happy b,day Skye..sgp food is same with the foods in malaysia....but the prices is.omg😓😓😓😓coz the country is more develop....One of my favourite youtuber is in sgp too and just released new contents about sgp with her partner..(chanel name:torres pit)700k sub..Hope u both can meet up and do some content together....they both so sporting...he is from hk and his partner is from south africa(georgia gordon)80k subs.
.........i'm a Singaporean and trust me......nothing to see or do here.............the weather is shitty too (hot and humid or non-stop rain).................don't waste your money coming here................and least of all - a terrible place to live in unless you're really rich.............
@@SkyeSamuels Just ignore this Malaysian, he and his country's people just want every tourist to say bad things about Singapore because they are full of jealousy with Singapore.

Hi , Welcome to Singapore. Lau Pa Sat is actually directly translated from Hokkien , a dialect meaning Lau = Old n Pa Sat = Market. Enjoy Singapore Cheers
Pa Sat is actually derived from Pasar in Malay, so it's both Hokkien and Malay in origin.
@@Zz7722zZ Yes, 巴刹 is a loanword from Malay that is used in Singapore and Malaysia. The Chinese word for market is really 市场.
Pasar is derived from Persian's bazaar, brought in early Arab immigration.

Next time try the local coffee, it is less than S$2.00 😊 ( to name afew, Toast box, Ya Kun, Killiney Kopitiam, and Breadtoast )
The places you have been (and eating at) are quite touristy. It's a lot more expensive than it has to be.
Happy 🎉birthday 🎂🥳🎉🍺and welcome to Singapore

You kept saying Singapore is expensive but prices of food shared in video seemed lower than in

The place u were in from 51 seconds was my grandmothers house
It's expensive because you were visiting all the touristy areas and paying much higher than it's needed. There are much cheaper options for locals and people in the know.
You can get much cheaper coffee outside town in Singapore.

Thank you! 🫶🏻😀
omg ur in singapore!!! im ur fan in singapore
Thank you so much! 💛

Good! 😝
I am surprised you cycled for hours when you only planned to be here for 24 hrs.
Exercise 💪🏻 it was a great way to see the city!
The airport scene at the end is not at any of the Singapore airports
Did you try our coffee shop coffees? Less than $2!
That coffee belongs to a singapore artist. Its very expensive. U should buy cheaper ones nearby
So good
