Awards | The Best Char Kway Teow in Singapore Ep 14

[@handoyosudarga8020]

Thanks for doing this series. I'm of the same opinion that Hai Kee is the best! Hope to see more local/hawker food competition rather that burgers or steaks. 😬

[@Alderic.]

thank you for the support! I'll keep that in mind (:

[@ehrgeiz88]

We need more content creators like you in singapore. Keep the content coming !

[@Alderic.]

thank you! I'll keep going!

[@chewwenhua5312]

I’ve been following your channel a while, and really appreciate the effort you put into your videos. Here’s a small token of appreciation and motivation for you!

[@Alderic.]

thank you for the support!

[@loocheek]

This is what KZbin is supposed to be - authentic, informative and entertaining. Well done. Well done.

[@mrowltan]

謝謝！

[@Alderic.]

thank you for the support again!

[@vp6957]

I applaud you for your persistence and determination to eat every famous CKT for the entire month even going as far as Penang. You're crazy and it's a compliment.

[@streen2000]

Wah... Does this mean that all the b roll filming (with the associated cooling effect) has confounded the ckt experience of all the ones you tried this series?? Semula! Eat again!

[@Alderic.]

hahaha woh chill. I can probably eat all of the ckts again but I cannot go through all the queuing once more.

[@danielwoq]

Keep up the great work Alderic!

[@Alderic.]

thank you for the support! I will!

[@Kmmc2011]

Thanks for such a great review , and for taking all the trouble to find the best plate of CKT

[@Alderic.]

thank you for the support! glad you enjoyed it!

[@GlenRushz]

Mee Pok next please!! It’s an underrated dish that are more commonly consume in Singapore than Malaysia too! Choa chu Kang 302 have one of the best mee pok

[@noriking1467]

Great series never disappoint ! Hope to see you tackle the best prawn noodle in Singapore which I feel is quite tricky and challenging because there is dry and soup version hehe

[@josephheah6175]

Penang CKT enthusiastic here. I have been following your whole ckt series. Being a northern malaysian who has stayed in sg for more than 3 years. I really miss Penang CKT. I have tried several Singapore CKT or so-called penang-ckt in Singapore stalls. There's no ckt can outclass penang authentic ckt. I don't like to make the assumption that malaysia food>Sg food as i dont think i have explored enough the best singapore food. Thanks for the shortlisted and recommended Singapore ckt. Definitely, i will try and taste it myself soon!

[@kaiserlow652]

that is because u are used to the taste of ckt u hv been eating since young. it's the same for me, I prefer our version of ckt although I think that Penang ckt is nice too.

[@MrGarySim]

Great series! How about doing one on nasi lemak or laksa?

[@krappola1]

thank you for people like us where we have been away for sometime. We come back for our favorite food from school, army etc. I like near Hougang so i have a few place i can visit for CKT and others you recommend.

[@AnthonyKittiudom]

Wow and a spreadsheet with all of the info. Thank you!

[@Alderic.]

you're welcome! take note that 2 of the top 3, Guan Kee and Hai Kee have retired (:

[@jaydenchong31]

bro can be a comedian fr, best food content creator imo

[@ChristineTohXH]

omg, u ate 3 plates of char kway teow in a day, surprised u didn't add in the trip to A&E for a cardiac checkup afterwards, hahaha. thanks for doing this!

[@kevjumbaz]

truly dedication to the craft even taking a cab just to make sure its tasted back to back in a single day

[@tankaiyong9240]

Hi, I like your video, have try few of it, i really love your recommendation, 🤤would you do a series on char siew rice? thank you 🙏

[@johnfinnick630]

Great series as always

[@goddanner]

The persistent foodie, let's go !! Next is hor fun / fried rice please

[@Alderic.]

not more persistent than the Hai Kee uncle haha. thanks for joining as a member!

[@tnyshare2938]

As per recommended, I have tried both Hai Kee and Meng Kee. I will be a returning customer to Meng Kee as there is option to add ingredients e.g eggs $1 and Lup Cheong $1. The increase in ingredients really elevates the experience. Hai Kee on the other hand don’t come with any options.

[@anbu999]

Try one in the Orchard Gateway basement

[@xeenslayer]

Walao my google maps full of starred locations after your videos.

[@lindapreza8571]

Come and try penang char kway teow at zion rd😂

[@grandgroody]

lmao with fuwamoco voice in the middle I think in singapore, char kway teow is more commonly associated with affordable food, where as penang, it become some sort of specialty dish where chefs can showcase their creativity with stuffs like mantis prawn, etc

[@vindo17]

kinda surprised that there's Fuwa Moco voice coming out of nowhere 😆

[@bellyhungry]

Looks like Penang wins. I'm in Canada, would like to get my hands on either. 😊

[@andrewchai6076]

How about Best Oyster Omelette in Singapore for the next series Alderic?

[@mingbong4893]

Where is the Hill St Char Kway Teow located, may I know please?

[@Alderic.]

Bedok South Food Centre, full details can be found in the spreadsheet in the video description (:

[@mattmah7164]

That fuwamoco today hahahahaha

[@chickenboy5071]

mad man eats with his bag on, truly built different

[@ylein6508]

Could you find the best bcm or lor mee

[@tzekeen77]

Hai Kee Hai Kee FTW! OG since Margaret Drive!!!

[@seiba8645]

what's the next dish !!!

[@derekongkb]

Now Hai Kee will have super long queues

[@eyulipng1780]

IMO, Penang ckt and local ckt should not be together, they are different. But my opinion is same as your verdict, Hai Kee is the best local CKT currently in SG. And yes, I also think that CKT must be eaten fresh out of wok and dabao ckt is the last thing I will eat 😅

[@du5ksama]

Not expecting Fuwamoco tbh lol

[@x3Patrick]

For those who watched the video wanting to try haikee afterwards, unfortunately it is impossible. Uncle has decided to retire. So in a way, hill street is number1?

[@poolfans]

Laksa next？

[@gabrielnonis2071]

What's next Alderic? Chinese Rojak or Bak Kut Teh?

[@frank88ster]

Imho ... The best must include the quality if Chili in the mix. Ipoh C.K.T has vest garlic spicy hot chili sauce. Only my oppinion.

[@kirkchua]

Lao Fu zhi u try at kallang airport one? The old man now cookin @ Lau pa sat branch alrdy 🤫 still not much people know so don need Q but more ex 🤫

[@iheadu]

Oi, you want to be a stand by comedian? Because you put a smile on my face.

[@Wvk5zc]

Mutton biryani next???

[@doktormilk]

THE VOICES

[@rayvernrv]

Seriously glad you favored Penang CKT at the end 😚

[@crimsonDyNaM0]

Im just disappointed that outram ckt didnt make the list but I understand that you didnt get the chef's best.

[@willieho4386]

Pretty legit ranking. I’d go for Hillstreet over Hai Kee for top place. 👏

[@iannathan5527]

Woooohooo

[@supersteve3d]

Thank you for the outstanding series Alderic! I always look forward to your food adventures...👍 Just a minor observation, I think perhaps there is a wrong entry for your spreadsheet / google maps links for ->| Meng Kee Fried Kway Teow 明記炒粿條 it is using the Zion Road map address from the row before -> No. 18 Zion Road Fried Kway Teow 🙏

[@Alderic.]

thanks for letting me know, patched!

[@carmelo665]

There is no mention of Keto (diabetic-friendly) CKTs that use Olive oil and low-carb noodle, e.g., Ange Bakes Keto Bakery & Cafe...

[@Yenyen-zm7xy]

I have never tried all the places you mentioned. The last time I had char kwan Teow in Singapore was in 1979. Never had another plate in Singapore again. I don’t like the way the noodles was cooked, a whole wok first, then divided into smaller individual selling portions. This is not the way char kwan throw is cooked. Yes, I agree Penang have much better char kwan teow provided it’s cooked in individual plate. If not the taste is also so so.

[@erisuuuuu]

Unexpected VTuber reference 💀 do BCM next please!

[@elyewi]

BAUBAU TODAYYYYY

[@stan_ong]

I appreciate the objectivity.

[@PWC67]

I much prefer mine with more protein like sliced fish cake, char Sui pork, chicken etc and not just noodle and veg.

[@LVPictures]

Now can consider doing chicken rice but only those with less than 1k e.coli bacteria.

[@liuszuling]

This is definitely not another excuse to eat three plates of Char Kway Teow😂

[@Alderic.]

definitely not (:

[@shaunsim3188]

The reason, it duck eggs. Char kway teow was originally using duck eggs.

[@x3Patrick]

Knew haikee would win it from the day u published the haikee video. I am sure i will be expected to queue an additional 30minutes to an hour now. 😢

[@johnchen6310]

Bro next time just put the $10 there on his desk and RUN RUN RUN!!!

[@Alderic.]

I honestly thought about it but figured it might be quite rude in a way idk.

[@johnchen6310]

@@Alderic. Kudos bro! You are a true blue gentlemen.

[@gerrykomalaysia2]

penang more famous for CKT, never knew ckt existed in singapore, because singgies prefer fried yellow noodles

[@f4rensabri]

I noticed that Singapore ckt always add yellow noodles.... while in Malaysia it's always flat rice noodles only.

[@Sunny-yh3vf]

Some store you can request don't want yellow noodles.

[@gerrykomalaysia2]

@@f4rensabri and their yellow noodles different from malaysia's because theirs do not have alkali\ lye taste, because Singapore's Health and Food Ministry dont like the use of Lye in making yellow noodles

[@brienobread4633]

🐐

[@piggydives]

yo! what about Apollo CKT?

[@Alderic.]

hm I think it might have closed down earlier this year.

[@spwspw9446]

Yeah, this is my favourite. Very flavourful and tasty, regardless on-the-spot or after dabao. The kway teow is good to eat on its own, similar to importance of the Rice in chicken rice.

[@duncanmit5307]

👍💜👍💜

[@du5ksama]

Hai Kee retired 🙁

[@teejiawei6943]

下个福建面？

[@Splirt]

fuwamoco voices

[@jiyefuuu]

Better go for blood test bro your cholesterol level should be checked. I just had gallbladder problem hurts like knife stabbing so don't downplay the dangers 😂

[@carmelo665]

You're right! Gall bladder problem could also be caused by Higher Carbs CKT with lesser ingredients (result in high insulin). You may want to learn more about Keto Diet or try Low Carbs CKT (e.g., Shirataki or Konjac Noodles).

[@kelvingunawan1099]

All those problems exist because of high body fat level, same like insulin resistance. If you have lean body with high muscle mass, you don't even need to think about cardiovascular problems.

[@CherylSim29]

All the wonderful CKT has no lap cheong which I love

[@muspasuta]

+1 for nasi lemak

[@JenkinsChng]

Lfz ckt doesn't even deserve 1 plate.

[@jeremyk4276]

😂👍

[@danho1904]

All Char Kway Teow stalls are lousy BECAUSE they mix yellow noodle into a CKT dish... & I have not found one who will fry only with Kway Teow without the noodle... NAME should be changed to .." Char KwayTeow Mee "..

[@kaiserlow652]

To me, it tastes better with yellow noodles.😊

[@wnose]

Jan 2025: Guan Kee now closed

[@Alderic.]

yeah Hai Kee is closed as well.

[@perryplat-jm8qe]

how can u accept the free plate of ckt....especially when u are doing a review on it plus receiving paid donations...its unfair and also the hawkers alr make so little. thumbs down for this video 😢

[@Alderic.]

Hahahaha good one mate.

[@jeremyk4276]

Not Al's fault really cos uncle is so insistent. But Hai Kee's uncle is the best .. no frown, great attitude and good CKT alway.

[@gopperlie]

Outram is the best. =(

[@lonerark1]

very brave to wear white and eat CKT hahaha

[@jacobheinz8236]

Hey Alderic, please for the sake of integrity and authenticity do not confuse some of your viewers. “Char Kway Teow” by definition describes the flat rice noodles. What was presented as Char Kway Teow from Penang is true and authentic. What you’ve in Singapore is actually Kway Teow Mee, not Char Kway Teow. It’s apples and oranges by comparison of the 2 dishes. Even I know the difference! It’s such a relief that you have given due credit to the authentic Char Kway Teow from Penang.

[@joikiangpang6094]

Outram CKT

[@sohlucky001]

Hill St ckt? NAH!!! Grew up in bedok and ate HS ckt whilst the father was frying ... one of the best. But since the son too over, it was downhill all the way. Food was bad and attitude of fryer (dun call him chef) and helper/sister was bad ... will never eat HS ckt ever again.

[@wendyshoowaiching4161]

Best Char Kway Teow in Ipoh. My Personal Version : I hate the blood taste of cockles in the noodles. No cockles in my plate. I like big prawns meat (de-shell), pork intestine, choy sum far (organic), chives, many big beans sprout (put last) & deliciously made sambal belacan calamansi chilli sauce. Noodles : Width Kway Teow & Thin Yellow Noodles. Seasoning: 1. Light soy sauce 2. Dark Soy Sauce 3. Garlic Mince 4. Oyster Sauce 5. Lard Oil or Fried Garlic Oil Method: Wok Hei (High Fire) Others: Duck Egg (Cook separately, never mix with noodles)

[@fairyz]

So sad. Back here to see Hai Kee as it is permanently closed already 🥲 Luckily you did a review before the closure so uncle’s hard work over 50+ years did not go unnoticed and will forever be remembered.
