There are 2 types of laksa, Singaporeans eat anything so we don't mind what the ingredients are as long as the stomach is happy!!!! Yeah, westerners are much more picky and fussy about the food they eat especially seafood, we don't care just eat, we were brought up not to be judgemental about the food our parents buy and cook

Ice Kachang usually has 3 colours of syrup used in the dessert. They are pink rose syrup, green pandan syrup and brownish-black gula melaka syrup. Default toppings for normal Ice Kachang include Red Beans, Grass Jelly (brownish-black jelly), pinkish-red Agar-agar Jelly, Cream Style Corn, Attap Seeds (Nipah Palm Fruit) and evaporated milk.

You both are adorable and lovely to see you going all out to try the local food! And to answer the question of whether to mix or not mix - The general rule of the thumb is that if the condiment or sauce is already IN the dish/bowl/soup , then yes , do mix. But if the sauce/condiments are served separately like for chicken rice - then generally it’s for dipping. But then again , no rules here. Nothing is against etiquette as far as hawker food is concerned.

For the curry chicken noodles, the first item is correct a kind of toufu. We called it tou pok or toufu puff/spongy toufu. The second white piece is fish cake not rice. Some people likes to dip their food into the sambal, others like to add it into the curry directly as it is not spicy enough. There is no peanuts in the laksa. Those are just coconut cream/oil split from the cooking :D Yes main ingredient for laksa is dried shrimp. Cockles are added in raw. The noodles are thick rice noodles. For soup base there is not much to mix about hehehe. Not everyone fancies the blood cockles. Me too, mussels, cockles. Actually a lot of hawker centres have those dessert stalls selling various shaved ice desserts and hot chinese desserts😄My favourite chendol is at Chinatown Complex - Amoy Chendol, which you guys had visited earlier. (they use fresh cold pressed coconut milk and hand made chendol jellies.) Bobo cha cha has hot or cold versions. It's basically coconut milk with added steamed cubes of yam, sweet potatoes, sago, tapioca jelly. Please don't put the utensils on the table or tray.

We actually really like the jellies used in all the desserts, so I'm glad you're sharing another location for Chendol because we will of course add it to our list!!!

I usually come across Bubur Cha Cha as a hot dessert. The jellies in Bubur Cha Cha are made from Sago. Ingredients include sweet potatoes and yam (seen at 12:37 to 12:41), cooked in a coconut cream soup infused with Pandan leaves. For some desserts, it is good to try them when they are hot, because even though Singapore is a hot country, eating something that is closer to your body temperature is actually better for digestion, since the body has to work harder to digest food that is cold, possibly causing indigestion.

Next time if you are sharing a big bowl of noodles, you can always ask for extra bowl/or smaller bowl so you don't have to take turns. The food sellers understand that tourists do this often. Also the laksa might look similar but have a different taste due to dried baby scrimps being added to the soup base and the addition of dried "laksa leaves" as a topping.

@@JayandKarolina The father of 307 Changi road laksa got the original recipe from the first original laksa in Singapore

I believe the reason why the auntie was saying that she didn’t wear a mask at 12:00 was because it’s still mandatory by law for all food stall holders to don a mask or a spit guard. Hope the authorities don’t go after her! 🫨

Could have been that! We actually didn't even think of wearing the masks ourselves 😳😳

I noticed a lot of these KZread explorers only travel to Chinatown and Little India trying food there but not travelling to the Geylang/Eunos/Aljunied area to try our local Malay food which has different varieties as well as food from our Peranakan and Eurasian communities!!!! Seems nobody likes to visit more mosques and churches, they all have their own histories and stories!!!! Like the catholic churches here, only one was built by the Portuguese and still under their Catholic mission with different Portuguese priests running the church till the 1990's

Well said 😂😂😂

There are two types of people in this world. People who like oysters, mussels, cockles, clams… and people who DON’T! 😂 Scallops are the only molluscs I like-and I’m neutral towards abalone…

That's so true 🤪 It's probably the fish/sea aftertaste + the textures... We wanted to give Laksa a go because it's an iconic dish here in Singapore; beloved by the locals, but definitely will ask for no cockles next time haha

Same as myself

Its scary, seeing both of you inserted the sharp end of the satay sticks of meat into your mouth. The proper way of eating satay or kebabs, is to slide the meat sideways as you pull the sticks sideways too. Just thought that might help. Thanks for visiting Spore n trying the different hawker's food.

Sorry! Thanks for sharing because otherwise we would not probably thought of a „correct” way of eating Satay 🙏 We truly loved all the foods in Singapore ❤️

Most of us don’t mix the rice n the dips together. Messy n unappetising

It’s less appealing I guess but I like the taste and have heard that some do the same 😬

Next time ask for another empty bowl , so u can divided the food into two bowls

Are they stall owners not getting fined for sharing not reliable information?
