McDonald’s LAKSA BURGER & FRIED CHICKEN! McDonald vs Mos Burger in Singapore

[@KurtisRader]

I spent 19 months (1997-1999) working in the Asia-Pacific region, with a lot of time in Singapore. I loved Singapore (and the whole AP experience) but seldom ate at western style fast food restaurants. Instead I generally (at least for dinner) got the equivalent of local fast food from the food court vendors in (usually the basement of) shopping malls. I was blown away by how good the vegetable based dishes were. I am an American raised in a home where we rarely ate more than corn, green beans, and a few other blandly prepared vegetables so those vegetable dishes made a huge difference in my appreciation of dishes that weren't meat/potatoes/bread.

[@misterbig9025]

Do you know Chow Chee Bye, Sir? It's a delicious local delight.

[@26_collin45]

much appreciated love from singapore😌

[@dumplingdumpling2205]

Glad you enjoyed them!

[@tmar8959]

The McDonalds in Singapore is something else, it's truly elite and top tier. Whoever manages the Pacific region/ Singapore menu needs a raise. I now live overseas but I always miss the mcspicy chicken and look forward to their seasonal releases. One honourable mention was their spicy black pepper Chinese New year burgers back when I was growing up. When Mike bit into the prawn burger I had to look away for a moment cz of the pain, I knew how good it was going to be. (Sigh, bites knuckle)

[@LemoNanora]

Mcspicy & prosperity burger are the best from McDonald's

[@tmar8959]

@@LemoNanora i agree! 200%

[@reveirg9]

The Buttermilk Chicken Burger is one of my favourite, you'd think pineapple in a burger might be weird, but it just goes so well together with the rest of it, it's like a freshness that cuts through the grease and provides such a great contrasting texture. I highly recommend that for people coming to Singapore, try it at least once!

[@anaadyakumar]

I agree. I loved it so much on my trip to Singapore that I ate it literally every day

[@gladknowingu9338]

Singapore has a uniquely Ramly burger

[@svh9]

I agree, IMO the Buttermilk Chicken Burger is better than the McSpicy lol

[@whizzardblizzard5696]

i like the double cheesebuirger

[@irahana8862]

Hey Mike! Welcome to Singapore. McDs sauces are readily available, they have Curry sauce, Bbq and I believe sweet and sour. U can request for them for free when u purchase their meals !😌

[@sphinxoforion7422]

Man Mcdonalds in other counties is much higher quality than in NA & UK, I'm so jealous. Here in Canada, we get a bigmac with bacon... Or a Western BBQ burger (which is really good btw) but still, I would love more items like these.

[@Omega65713]

I only order $ menu. I don't think mcdonald worth more than that.

Vietnam also has great variety of food. Absolutely tasty things over there. Just hope you won't `cut back` too much on Vietnam :)

[@Shakazuloeman]

What's the difference?

[@tenglei2]

Mike should try the garlic chilli sauce from mcd. it's great. also sweet curry for the fries!

[@RainingDarkChocolate]

How does Mikey not know about the famous curry, garlic chilli and bbq sauce from mcdonalds 😩

[@greencolouredpeas8235]

You gotta try the curry sauce at MacDonalds! The sauces aren't displayed anywhere or written. You gotta ask for them.

[@sumit6190p]

Even burger king curry sauce is good.

[@Semarngiseng]

If there is any restaurant you have to eat at in Singapore it is Sin Huat Eating House in Geylang. Try the Crab Beehoon, the scallops and make sure you order the vegetables. The reviews maybe mixed but is one of if not the best seafood restaurant. What the video of Anthony Bourdain eating there.

[@thomasji7614]

Mikey just showing around the world like food ninja! Thanks for all the awesome videos, happy travel! :D

you can try to find Prima taste Laksa brand in your Asian market if ya have.

[@athirahk1170]

Hi Mikey! My husband and I are big fan of yours!! We love to watch your videos especially while we’re eating haha. We would love to meet you around singapore. Btw the pulut hitam is pronounced as “pooloot hetAm” hahaha enjoy ur stay here!

[@willyw9443]

I think they have dipping sauces there. I remember they had awesome curry sauces there. It s usually given when you buy McNuggets. I don't know if the curry sauces is discontinued , I heard rumours that it was discontinued, but they have other dipping sauces other than curry sauce too. Ooh, I remember that singapore had sweet & sour (thai) chilli sauce too

[@LemoNanora]

Curry sauce is still on the menu, the discontinued thing is false

[@roamstarr]

@@LemoNanora There will be a national riot if the McD curry sauce is discontinued. Cannot lah!

[@VonVonVrooom]

We have many sauces. My favourite is curry sauce. BBQ sauce can go with spicy chicken too to tone things down. However, they don't give those to u automatically. U have to request/ask for them 😊 hope this helps

[@XiaowenXingfu]

Love to see you back in Singapore. Welcome and enjoy your stay!

[@rishikasingh1144]

Can’t believe I’m watching a vid 1 min after upload. Love your videos!

Come try McDonalds in Finland. We do have local things, but they are not flashy at all. Almost frustratngly healthy options like McVegan on whole rye bread or you could have oatmeal for breakfast at your local McD 😂

Whenever I go the yakiniku place , I dip the meat in the sauce before I grill it so the sauce caramelise and aroma goes overload.

You need to ask for the sauces. McNuggets with curry sauce

[@MrDenewbie]

Mikey, wanna share that theres now a mac donalds app. You can use it to order food to your table and there sometimes a 1 for 1 discount for the McSpicy Meal.

We have the McSpicy in aus at the moment. it has a decent kick to it, but somehow I think not as hot as the one in Singapore. Couldn’t say for sure though.

[@PeterKontogeorgis]

No chance...the Australian mcspicy is like 10% as spicy as a Singapore one. Nowhere near as good.

Think they will adapt the taste to more local flavour
