Back into top form Piggy. Love the reaching out to hawkers working hard in their stalls (Always the stars of the show). Also, love the cut-a-ways to the flag fluttering, the pot plants flourishing, and the alter offering/incense burning side issues. It is Singapore after all. But, and you know I'm a demanding task master, more soundtrack please. Oh, and as for Haigh Road HC. Nice vibe, but for me as a tourist, it is only a spot on the way to HJH Maimunah and the joys of Joo Chiat Road. Dr M
Yeah.. with HJH in the hood.. how to possibly stomach something else? 😅 That area warrants a couple of days stay. Dunman hawker. Old airport road. Joo chiat. Katong. Geylang. I try to capture what my eyes see.. but many times done in secret 😅🤫🤭.. just the everyday life of the people around you. That represents the essence and flavour of the community. You like the sound tracks huh? Maybe I should do an episode just on soundtracks 😄
I used to live on the 9th floor of Blk 3 Haig Road and I remember walking very often to this hawker to eat. Thanks for the great memories. I really love living in this area a lot.
Just want to compliment and show my appreciation to you and your videos. I no longer need to waste my time and money hunting for non credible stalls based on so called famous food blogs. Two thumbs up!!
Amazing, delicious traditional food in this hc. The best so far. Pls set up another stall at Margaret Dr hc. Most of e Chinese food stalls here can't make it. Lousy food n open as they like. They are not serious in doing biz.
Wow man an amazing video .I was wondering that you might don't have a lot of free time and I want to help you with that I'm a video editor and I want to ask you if you need any video editing for your videos. Let me know to have my portfolio or your edited sample video. Cheers, Rajvir Singh
Visited the place a couple of weeks back to eat Zhenguang wonton mee. Just alright for me. Didn't know they have pig skin option, my mum would have loved that. Another must visit is the putu piring at the other end. Mum's favorite. Other than that, really not familiar with the place. Thanks for vid, will check out the other stalls in future.
Yeah.. was alright. I ate putu piring too. Was tired and decided to leave Malay food to another episode. My mom said this putu piring has significantly nicer sugar filings. I thought maybe it’s fresher due to the volume of traffic there
@@Piggypuggy Ah okay. I wondered why I didn't see any Malay stalls as there are quite a number of them. One of them is really famous for their mee rebus, but unfortunately, mee rebus isn't something I really enjoy. I await your part 2.
Pity you left out the 3 best stalls in SG there. Satay. Wow. Unbelievable sauce to go with crispy sticks of beef or mutton. Corner Nasi stall with the best rending money can buy. Apom? Original stall. Btw Omar has the best tarek. Pulled just right. MUST try his teh tarek Alia. Mee rebus from mak chik!
Haiz.. if only I got your info a little earlier.. I visited the Muslim food side on Wednesday morning. I’ve tried the satay before .. shiok.. but I was too full to have another few sticks
The Lim Yu Mei kolo mee chili taste is very strong and spicy, have to be careful to ask them not to put too much, otherwise it over powers the dish. The other kolo mee I think open not long ago, less than a year? It's not bad too.
the seemingly chinese man who couldn’t speak chinese is so curious! wonder if he grew up in a different family and what 2nd language he learnt, if any. the prices at some of these stalls are so unbelievable like the 8 dollars fish set
The $2 economic rice.. so nice to see hawkers still offer real value on their menu together with other more expensive options. Especially in an area with so many old folk
That’s what amazed me.. many of the hawkers are 1-2 man show. They purchase quality products in bulk and only charge a wee bit more than their cost price. It’s even cheaper than if one were to purchase from the market and spend time cooking it themselves. We should have a national hawkers day to celebrate these heroes 🥰
Have you noticed how much older these hawker stall owners are. It would be sad if they can no longer work and there is no one to take over their business.
That's why I started capturing scenes of our hawkers past.. many have retired after a whole life if harwork serving the common people. Many whom I frequent but sadly couldn't find them operating anymore
@@Piggypuggythank you for making these videos and sharing Singapore’s food heritage. It’s one of the many reasons I look forward to visiting this country. It does sadden me however to think that the lack of manpower and succession issues may mean traditional hawker foods will slowly die out as modern chefs bring in their vision of good food; a fusion of east and west. I hope the hawker scene doesn’t vanish and that the government and locals will help to keep this culture alive so we can all enjoy hawker food for many years to come.
Kolo mee is controversial, I can't taste the specialty of it, it is so similar to instant noodle. Sometimes I wonder replacing it with instant noodle will not affect its taste. May be it is just me. c",)
The noodles texture is totally different from instant noodles. Kolo mee is springy, instant noodles (like maggi mee) is more like mushy. Also it is true that it can be packed and kept in their springy texture unlike other noodles, they will turn soggy very fast. For kolo mee though I prefer the one at Bedok interchange coffeeshop.
To inject new blood into the Singapore hawker industry, why don’t NEA and other stakeholders e.g. Hawker centre landlords collaborate with popular retired old hawkers to create videos using a clean vanilla demo hawker stall on each specific step of their hawker operations (how to clean thoroughly) including advertising and marketing for each hawker cuisine to sell to new hawkers to reduce errors, maintain quality and reduce risks of food poisoning.
Chinese stalls are nothing to shout abt, maybe noodles with pig skin. Wanton mee stall char siew not fragrant at all. Just pork BOILED in red powder colourings n spices. Joo Chiat Place has so much better shops
First to comment. Thanks for sharing
Wow K! First time I've seen a longer sentence 😂
Thanks for your support as always K 😊

Really enjoyed watching your video clip. It was a long time since i last went to Haig Road.
Well.. breakfast is available in about 6 hrs 😂😋
Lots of nice food there👍🏻
Also the teochew braised duck and kway chap. The malay soto, mee rebus, mee siam and popiah goreng are all hidden gems.
I used to live on the 9th floor of Blk 3 Haig Road and I remember walking very often to this hawker to eat. Thanks for the great memories. I really love living in this area a lot.
Wow! That’s real convenient .. plus so much good food just at your doorstep 😀
Yeah! It was really great! So much good food in this area. Now my current area is horrible... hahahaah @@Piggypuggy
That’s why you walk in rain to find food 😂🤪
Yeah lor! Must walk all the way to ABC Hawker and eat Wow Wow West Western food hahah @@Piggypuggy
@@AmbientWalking worthy grub to replenish the calories lost 😄
Just want to compliment and show my appreciation to you and your videos. I no longer need to waste my time and money hunting for non credible stalls based on so called famous food blogs. Two thumbs up!!
Waahh your fish +3 dishes+porridge only $8👍👍
Incredible price huh?? How they managed to keep such prices?
Thank you for your filming! I love your all videos

Qi shifu, a zhichar corner stall selling braised and steam food like fish, black fungus chicken, steam soup, etc
One day I'll go try it on my off day.no filming 😂

Yeah.. I get what you mean when the chilli 🌶️ is just overwhelming.. 😅🥵
YUMMY.
👍👍👍👍👍👍
This has to be preserved or else we lose another part of the identity

Come to think of it.. It does look like instant noodles 😂.. except maybe thicker strands. Maybe folks love that QQ feeling of it
