Great video Ghib! I was born in Singapore and moved to Perth, australia in 1985. There are Sooo many places i havent been so i love watching your food adventure videos. One thing i try and do when i'm back there on holidays is pick out an MRT station and go visit and explore. Much like you did here. Keep up the great content. Arigato :-)
During the Japanese Occupation of Singapore this area was an entertainment centre for the Japanese troops. The food centre in the Beauty Centre you should try the herbal mutton soup.The chinese Temple used to provide cremation service.The HDB area was once a small hill with kampongs.

Thanks for this clip which bring back memory of my kampong days I stayed in this area from 1963 for 10 years at Jalan Jurong Kechil, Toh Yi Drive when it was indicated as Track 1 behind the Buddhist Temple and roam around Rifle Range, Hindhede Quarry when it was a kampong with red mud road, small streams, Bukit Timah Hill and the railway tracks. Daily at about noon and 5pm dynamites were detonated to get the granites at the quarry.

Ghib-san, you can get Asao-san (before he returns Japan, and since he's already well-trained tracking long distance on foot in the jungle during NS) to join you on hiking trips in Singapore, can try the 14km (3hr) route starting from Caldecott Mrt>MacRitchie Reservoir Park>Prunus Trail>Peirce Track>Pipeline Trail>Rifle Range Road>Pipeline Trail>Catchment Path>Bukit Timah Hill Main Road>Bukit Timah Hill Summit>Beauty World Mrt, then finish off eating again at Bukit Timah Food Centre (maybe review the "Butakin" hawker ramen stall).

You can also hike the 13km (3hr) route from Marsiling Mrt>Woodlands Ave 3>Pipeline Trail along BKE>Passing SLE>Crossing Mandai Road>Passing BKE>Passing KJE>Zhenghua Nature Park>Passing Dairy Farm Road>Rifle Range Road (end of Pipeline Trail)>Durian Loop>Beauty World Mrt, then end off with hearty meal again at Bukit Timah Food Centre or further down Bukit Timah Market & Food Centre.

Hello Ghib! Really enjoy watching your videos and you've just explored my neighborhood! It seems like the timing you went to the hawker centre, not many stalls were opened. Though I've never tried the satay bee hoon, I hear and see that many people are always queuing for it. Further down, there's Bukit Timah Plaza, at the basement, there's a dessert shop Le Tian Tian which sells nice desserts like peach gum and mango pudding. Thank you for showcasing my neighborhood. Please come back again! :)

The Hawker center has transformed many times and the Famous Chai Tao Kuay used to be facing the big carpark next to the main road in the past. Too many great food in this hawker center, Satay Bee Hoon, NgoHiong Bee Hoon, Nyonya Chendol, traditional Soy Bean(Only in the morning) and Try out a fruitdrink stall that sells Bua Long Long drink. Will be very interesting..

Yesss!! Glad you had all my fav eats in the area! But there's still so much that you missed! Fun fact about beauty world! It used to be the Orchard Rd of Singapore in the 80s! And way before that during the Japanese Occupation, it was an amusement park! The bridge that is connected to Beauty World Centre also leads to the future treetop walk. Good reason to come back and explore when it opens 😁 If you go up to Blk 9 Toh Yi Drive, you'll be able to see the whole view of Bukit Timah Hill! 👍👍

The Hawker center you missed is where the forever famous Satay Bee Hoon, Mutton Soup, Fish soup, pork satay, oyster omelet. The chinese temple you went, down the lane has many Korean eateries, Little Korea is there .... You need one whole day to explore ... :D

Noooooo Ghib, that was exactly where I hope you'd go. You did go to the temple but you didn't go in? There'll be a notice to say how during the war tge japanese soldier chased some people but the moment they all went into this temple, the soldiers dropped their weapons and lives were spared. From this temple just 5 minutes walk, you cross Jalan Jurong Kechil, you'll see old shop houses. URA wanted to demolish them but Dr Cheong from Cheong clinic produced documented evidence that those shop houses were used as comfort homes for the Japanese troops with comfort women checking in for work with their names. Do it again!

Hi great videos in Singapore and in Europe. What would help more elderly or disabled if you gave approximate distances you walk. It's hard to tell. Even a 2 second flash of a ramp or a pavement would help. Very few videos show these things. Entrances to buildings can put people from planning to go in. Thanks
