You're giving me the itch to travel again, brother 😂
I LOVE Singapore. Very clean. Very safe. And they mostly speak English.
I agree with you
Wow Gregor, what a fantastic food tour, each stop had my mouth watering. I really want to visit this wonderful place, thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed and yes, this place is a gold mine
Your enthusiasm is contagious! Enjoy ever more !
ahhhhh, thank you!
Man! That's a place I love to visit. Thanks for the video. You got a sub.
@3:15 the stalls also go by colour code which the stall beams are coloured accordingly...
It's genius 🙌
Wow.. that’s a lot of foods! Satisfied stomach!
you're right, so happy, so satisified.
Gregor .. great video ! Apart from Chinatown/Maxwell .... venture out to the suburbs.... lot of good food, surprises too ...
Cool, thanks. I need to do that on my next trip.
Drooling 🎉 great blog
Thank you 😋
Wah! Was watching your Rome videos as will be going soon and here you are in Singapore! 🇸🇬
Have you heard of Singapore's hawker centers before? 🇸🇬😋
I am doing two day IF (Intermittent Fasting) when I came across this video. Greg, you spoil my day…….
Oh no, sorry for the temptation, Ben! 😅 Hang in there with your IF, and maybe treat yourself to some amazing food once your fasting window is over. Stay strong, and maybe plan a future feast at one of these amazing spots! 🍜
5:37 I have worked in Singapore long enough to remember that not always did you need to put away your own tray 😅 In the past there was no such thing, you just leave your bowl and tray there and the cleaner will come round with their trollies to clear 😅
it has been the case since Covid. Unless you are eating in a restaurant.
Long before the new rules I tried to return my trays (when there was an obvious place to do so) - felt bad for making the elderly table cleaners clean up after me.
Yeah, always a polite thing to do!
@@simplyme3306Covid only recent years, u must be really young to think Covid was long ago 😅
@@user-jk5um1om8lthats good but what do you think they do now when their job to clear bowls and cutleries are not needed as much as before?
good video.good content.nice, interesting.love this video.very delicious mouth watering food.
Thank you so much 😃
Hainanese chicken dish is one of my ATFs in SG.
I want to go back now and have more. So simple, so good!
👍
We just filmed here! Great video! 🎉
Thank you!! 😊Such a great place to film, so much action and color.
Big thanks to you both for visiting and featuring my country on your channel!
A pleasure!!!
U ate the noodles dish right by mixing the sauce with the noodles first which many tourists missed to do. 👍🏽
The food u tried just tickled my craving. 😅
Mixing the sauce right makes all the difference, doesn't it? Glad I could bring back some cravings! 😊
It’s a sin to watch this video as a Singaporean working overseas. The UNESCO award for hawker Centers was well deserved and totally merited.
Absolutely, the UNESCO recognition for Singapore's hawker centers is indeed well-deserved. They are true gems that not only deserve protection but also global appreciation for their vibrant contribution to culinary culture. Thanks for watching the video!
You really know where to eat, welcome to SG ❤
Thanks for the warm welcome! Singapore has some of the best food scenes in the world, and I'm just happy to share my experiences. ❤️
Great video and explanation on the no frills good food without the additional "services". A lot of foreigners come to this part of asia would often comment there are no napkins here.
One of my favourite hawker centre and where most locals will go to. Most tourists only know about Maxwell due to a certain stall there, and Newton.
Exactly, the focus on good food without the extra frills is what makes hawker centers special. It's all about the authentic experience! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. 🍛 (And by the way, the next video is at Maxwell LOL!!)
Try not to put valuables even though Singapore is generally very safe, most of us use name cards or bottles or even tissue packs to "chope" seats.
Good advice, but really, I found Singapore so safe and friendly.
Once I saw a young man chope with his whole wallet😮 while he went to counter to order his food. I saw a bunch of keys, laptop bag too. Unbelievable
yeah, it could lure decent people into wrongdoing
The world should all be this safe!
I used HP or my earbud as tools for Chopping seat … it’s been ages and still as safe as always
You know your food!
Thanks! There's so much to discover in Singapore's hawker centers, and I'm glad you enjoyed the video. 🍜
Hill Street Fried Kway Teow is a better option in China town complex food centre
that was where I wanted to go, but they were closed that day ;(
The way you gobbled up your hawker food looked like the way a true blue local would eat at hawker centres.
That's the best compliment, thank you! Eating like a local is the goal. 🙏
Erm.. still no telephone on the table. Low crime doesn't mean no crime.
Mien Chiam Kueh is pronounced "Meen Chi-yum Kway".
Thanks Ruth. :)
Ironically to "hawk" something means to move around settling something. My grandparents remember a time when the Hawker cart would come around the neighbourhood. They would cook on the spot and you sat on stools they provided. So "Hawker Centre" is an oxymoron.
Such great info
Thanks 😊
Didn’t it start that way? Then the SG government moved them all to hawker centres for hygiene purposes? Hawkers are licensed and have to go through hygiene courses.
But you only go Chinatown and eat Chinese food. That doesn't represent Singapore. We are a multi racial country. Why never feature Malay and Indian food?!
Thanks for pointing that out! I absolutely agree that Singapore's rich multicultural tapestry offers an incredible variety of cuisines. I make sure to explore and feature Malay and Indian dishes in future videos. How about some Soto Ayam!!!??? :)
i am suprised you do not have more subscribers. excellent content and editing.
Thanks so much! Your support means the world 🌍💖. More great content coming your way! And we are growing steadily. If you want to learn about the goals, check out this video I made: ruclips.net/video/ceTqngUjUhQ/видео.html
