You can see how Gib appreciates our local delights in the way he proudly introduces them to his countrymen.

Mass media and commercials really skewed foreigners impression of Singapore, glad that Ghib helps to show the normal Singaporean culture, food and people.

Having a series where exchange students try Singapore food would be a great and fun addition. :D

The dish which the Mandarin-speaking girl was eating is generally known in English as 'Five-Spice Rolls' 五香卷. But it is more popularly shortened to either 'ngoh hiang' or 'gor hiong' depending on dialect (the Mandarin pronunciation is 'wu xiang' 五香). The full name is 'ngoh hiang hae piah' ('wu xiang xia bing' 五香虾饼) or, for older folks like me, 'tow kuah hae piah' 豆瓜虾饼. The stalls selling this dish typically has many deep-fried meatballs, rolls, fritters, etc. to choose from. They are mostly seasoned with Five-Spice Powder 五香粉, hence the name. She had specifically picked the prawn fritter ('hae piah ji' 虾饼煎) & one type of meat rolls 肉卷 (AKA errorenously as 'lor bak' since the meat may not be braised).

So heartwarming to see Ghib promoting our local hawker food to his fellow countrymen. You can tell that Ghib loves his hawker food and he is so proud to share it 😊

Great video that reminds me of the early classic days of ghib exploring Singapore. Always fun to see fresh faces having a first look at our food and culture. Especially on their day 1 visit.

This is thoroughly a great experience for them. Introducing them our vast options on food. Glad Ghib managed to also introduce Prata and Rojak. Thank you to the students who are game to try these food at the hawker centre.

Thank you Ghib for always producing videos of Singapore in such a fun, humorous and knowledgeable way! Always keep up the good job! Maybe you can try to film some free activities in a video as bagpackers usually wanna do! Thank you and keep up the awesome content!

The tied packet, there's a trick for it. U take the tip of the red string, then goes opp direction, it will un-tighten the whole thing, at the end u can open it easily. (For example it was tighten in clockwise, u go anti clockwise) 是非試して見てください 😁

Ghib you did a great job showing your new friends the food and culture of Singapore 🇸🇬

Thank you so much for being such a great ambassador for promoting Singapore.

Showcasing local hawker culture? I like this! Happy to see that they enjoyed it

love how Ghib promotes the hawker culture here... Thank you!

Love this content! Very engaging to see the student exchange reactions to hawker food and the kind of food they get

Always enjoy Ghib Ojisan channel. Keep it up!

Thank you Ghib’s time and video for being Singapore Food ambassador … As always, your videos will made me need to grab something to eat😂😂😂. How I wish our hawker centre can be more cleaner ….especially the toilets! Sometimes so xia suay to the public and tourists .

Agree. People take their plates, bowls away but left a dirty table behind. The cleaners are slow in cleaning the tables and the subsequent diners have to live with a dirty table.😢

Definitely one of my best episode! So fun watching them try and enjoy their food!

Very good idea, thanks for being a good ambassador for Singapore. You should be made Mayor of Singapore. Try more, I enjoy👍

This is very interesting to watch. Ghib san should get some locals to intro them more about our local food? Maybe that would help to explain more stuff to foreigners.

this is spectacular content! Love it!

Hope to see more of this series. Even as a local, it's very helpful for my future food hunts

As usual great content with food!

Nice one! Jippun Lang Zao Liao! Hahaha! Can't wait to see them having Durians and sightseeing if Ghib Ojisan brings them!

Gib San, thanks for being such a great SG ambassador 😊😊😊

Gib... Great appreciation for your effort.

Great episode….intriguing how they find certain foods interesting like coconut drink with straw Why title is Japanese girls....got boy also ma Right? Lol

This and the Kaya Toast episode is very well done. Especially that guy who feared the dipping of kaya toast in egg, so funny.

Well done Ojisan 👍

Another great SG Food promotion video. Please bring more Japanese tourist to our heartland hawker centres to enjoy our hawker food. 🎉

Correction, the 'red bean' dessert is not red beans but pulut hitam which is black rice. It is actually a porridge eaten with coconut milk and is a hot dessert.

Hi Ghib n all,, that asam tea that kosei san order asam means sour thats why its sour,, and that red bean thing its called Pulut inti hehe,, i m scared he will get lau sai 🤣,; tonikaku mina de isyobi tabete tanoshikatta ne,, Ghib 今日　のお誕生日　おめでとう　ね🎉🍺👍😅

The acting, and the dialogue.......so much better than Channel 5 drama stuff

Ghib さん、ありがとうございます。

There is a very nice fried fritters & Porridge stall at thai thong crescent. You should try it Ghib.

Ahhh, I miss the food so much! You might be surprised how much I ate while I was there...

First is Kaya toast and now is Rojak. What is next ? Waiting for next episode 👍

At the end of video ... "Jib Pun Lang Zao Liao" ... That was hilarious! hahahaha

Apparently. i will come here at least one a week to have my breakfast...... Porridge and Chee Cheong fun ...sometimes the Soon Kueh as well...which is just located behind when the girls were sitting... LOL

Pull the bag string from the top instead from the bottom, it opens easier

have you tried prata from Indian vegetarian stalls? the few I tried serve prata with a different gravy (either with dal or veg curry) and they do not add chilli, so it's not spicy (ie not hot). I personally prefer my pratas from these veg stalls. actually the chinese veg cai png (mix veg) stall at alberts food centre tastes like home cooked food and a taste I associate with the earlier generations. its one of the tastes that's disappearing with more senior hawkers retiring

@1:22 no prawns in the prawn fritter ! 😂

Should try the satay bee hoon n the cuttle fish with kangkong. It’s one of the best.

All the good food 😋🤤

Ojisan for Singapore ambassador to Japan!

Hi Ghib! You used the word ' Jajan' in the video. What does it meant? In Bahasa Indo it meant 'snacks'. Very apt when you used to present roti prata.

@hesapollo9078

Жыл бұрын

Jajan felt something like ta-da, way of expression. From Google: an imitation of a fanfare (typically used to indicate an impressive entrance or a dramatic announcement

Ngo hiang aka wu xiang (五香) originated in China so it exists there, just not the region where Koh is from. It is only found in Fujian region where most Singaporeans' ancestors come from. In Taiwan where most of their ancestors also come from Fujian, it is also called 鸡卷 (ke-kng). In Malaysia Penang its called lobak (卤肉).

hahaha! the last part! かわいそう~ they don't get it! Did you explain to them after Gib?

Like your video , is fun 👍👍😍😍

💪👍. Getting very interesting. 🌟✨👏👏👏

normal lah sometimes i also mistaken pulut hitam with red bean.

Was this shot at the same time as the kaya toast episode?

ちなみに、Rojakはマレー語では「混ぜる」って言う意味です。

Hi Ghib, I don't think that is red bean soup, it looks more like Peranakan's Glutinous Black Rice with coconut dessert..

That's not red bean. It's black glutinous rice with coconut milk. Or some called it pulut hitam.

Learnt a word without using Google translate - kocha kocha. Which my guess is like rojak. Mix mix?

アルバートセンターよく通ってます !🙂

OMG! I think I am having a brain explosion watching these beautiful sheltered people. Assam is probably my favourite tea. I think a lot of Westerners adore Assam and Assam type of strong black tea. Sour? Was it mixed with something? Lemon? A huge mug of hot Assam tea (without any extras) is the best thing in winter.

So fun to see them enjoying our local food 🤤 is it because of the movie "Crazy Rich Asians" that they think Singaporeans are all about money? 🤑 hahaha

Singapore Welcome All Japanese And please Enjoy... thank you...Tour Leader

Should have taken them to Ayer Rajar. Best Nasi Goreng I have ever tasted

Yup... Even some locals have trouble untiying coffee, chili or any sort of tied package... So, only 'true locals' can do it... And order coffee in Singlish... 🤣😂

Why do Singaporeans eat do peppers? You may want to explain that peppers grow well in the tropics, and are a spice that adds flavor and interest to any food, including vegetables . More importantly combined with the heat and the spice, one tends to sweat more and that is the natural way your body keeps from overheating. Do not forget also that India was known for their spices, and that is why Columbus ventured out to find a passage to India to bring the valued spices to Europe. You may want to do a video for new immigrants to Singapore what they should do to try to put up the heat and humidity. Keep on doing what you are doing.

They should learn some Easy Mandarin 😊 0:52
