  • One common grain that’s used frequently in hawker centres is rice. In its many forms, the grain also binds families as parents, grandparents and children work together producing rice-based dishes. We follow up with fourth-generation hawker Debbie Yam who runs a Tze Char business with her grand aunt. She’s now forced to do both day and night cooking, producing classic dishes like Beef Horfun. Another fourth-generation hawker is Filzah who is continuing her great-grandmother’s Nasi Padang business. Their specialty dish is the little-known Nasi Rawon. It’s a complex dish that requires preparation from around midnight.
    Another complex dish is the high-end dim sum style Cheong Fun. Chef Leung and his family begin their workday from 4am making rice porridge and ‘intestine noodles’ from scratch, even milling rice in the small Chinatown stall. And what about the Nasi Ulam hawker Redha? Her story continues as she now has an offer to leave the trade, but would it be forever?

      I don't understand why some pple would have sambal sotong or rendang with Nasi Rawon. It just spoil the rawon.

    Rawan in Javanese/Malay means vulnerable. Like in Indonesia you see road signss that say 'Rawan Kemalangan' to mean Accident Prone. Rawon in Javanese/Malay means Black. Which is why ithe dish is called Nasi Rawon because the grsby is black. In Indonesia the fish is called correctly as Nasi Rawon.

    The new Social Enterprise Hawker Centres (SEHCs), who have explicit rules of price control, as well as unrealistic, market-pegged rents, will further entrench the role of hawker centres as Singapore’s informal soup kitchen, and at the expense of eating the hawkers that work there.

  • @azfarissirafza
    @azfarissirafza 3 месяца назад +2

    The Nasi Rawon isn’t that fantastic, standard had dropped while price is more costly than most stalls.
    The one at Bedok Corner is miles better.
    Plus this stall is famous for the infamous grumpy Makcik who is rude to customers.
    On the other hand, the stall next door Sinar Pagi serves great Nasi Padang and the service is excellent, you can see Singaporeans and foreigners from all walks of life forming a snaking queue when they are open.

      @@mokieth3456 yeah. in that food centre, there are stalls that cater to non-halal dishes as well. that’s what i’m kind of confused about. cos technically then… it can’t be “totally halal”.
      ** i’d also like to make it known that of course i have no issues about there having the non-halal stalls, none whatsoever. **
      but the venue (geylang serai market)-the 1st level is a wet market. 2nd level are hawkers. hawkers/stalls are segregated by those NH & H classifications… ykwim?

    Can we have a different narrator please? This narrator somehow feels like over-exaggerated. The way she mentioned and read words, makes me feeling nauseous.
    Perhaps can learn from Diana Ser as an example of narrating or presenting. Thank you.
