STREET FOOD TOUR SINGAPORE | Are Singaporean Foods Good?

[@kensanuk4914]

Lontong is traditional Malay food. But there are Chinese stalls selling their versions of Lontong. That's why you see Fish Cake at this stall, something not commonly use in Malay food. The colourful ice you had is called Ice Kacang (pronounced Ka Chang). The red syrup should be rose syrup. The chewy translucent thing is palm seed. Next time you should try the Sugar Cane Juice. :-)

longtong gravy haslots ofcoconut milk and that weird chewy thing is palm seeds softened with sugar

[@vinchonghh]

Longtong is steam rice Dumblings.

Amazing content to watch

[@darvidkoh2707]

Check out Fortune Centre at 190 Middle Road which has the most number of veg eateries (about 12) under one roof in Singapore. For hawker stalls, go to Circuit Road Hawker Centre which has the most number of veg stalls (around 11) of any hawker centre. It is the go to place for cheap eats. Many of the stalls are open in the evening and at night.

[@JesperandVanessa]

Thank you do much for the advice! 😁

[@LWC8]

Darvid is absolutely right about Fortune Centre! It's hard to find meat eateries in there because of a famous Buddhist temple nearby.

[@darvidkoh2707]

@@LWC8 Yes, the Guan Yin temple is the most visited religious site in Singapore and that's why the Bugis area has the most vegetarian eateries in the whole of Singapore.

Lontong is compressed rice cake in a coconut tumeric gravy with cabbage/carrot/longbeans - often with fish. The Ice Kacang (shaved ice) should be eaten mixed up or a spoonful of everything. Most Asian foods are meant to be eaten a spoonful of everything possible, not each ingredient separately. The translucent fruit was an Attap Seed - a palm fruit. The Roti (bread) Prata is also called Canai in Malaysia - it is oily because it is a flaky bread (roti), like puff pastry. Most often it is eaten with lentil (dhal) curry, or fish/chicken flavoured curries. The non-oily/flaky version is a Chapati. Easier to go vegetarian with Indian food than others. Chinese vegetarian is difficult to find.

So glad you had a nice time in Singapore and Malaysia, thank you for making nice cheerful videos 🤗 I hope you have some lovely trips planned when the world heals again 🏄‍♂️🐳🌴

longtong isa muslim dish made with coconut milkandthat seedintheicekahangis a sweeten palm seed

[@kensim8378]

fyi that "white thing" is palm seeds and itsnoticecream but shaved ice!

[@vincentlowchui]

Ice kacang is a local dessert native to Malaysia and Singapore. It is actually shaved ice with syrup and different types of toppings like red beans, sweet corn, cendol etc. It is also drench in evaporated milk to give it the body.

[@vinchonghh]

The bean you eating is red beans.

[@darvidkoh2707]

The lontong has got dried shrimp in its broth which explains the seafood flavor. There are actually two vegetarian food stalls in Redhill Hawker Centre and also two stalls selling vegetarian snacks there. There is also a vegetarian stall (Ru Yi) at the nearby coffee shop. Two other nearby hawker centres at Bukit Merah View and Bukit Merah Central also have vegetarian stalls. But they are open only for breakfast and lunch and close after lunch. Gosh, you missed so many. Forget the ice kachang which is junk food. You should ask for the healthier hot desserts such as pulut hitam (black rice). Soy milk and soy pudding you can always ask for no sugar.

[@JesperandVanessa]

Thank you so much for all that info! 😃

[@malht842]

There are many types of addons for prata.. prata egg,prata cheese,prata banana, prata onion,prata plaster,prata bomb,prata coin, murtabak(larger prata with meat/chicken stuffed)and many more types.. just google prata in Singapore

[@alhudafrozen2717]

Hai again...roti pratha is also known as roti canai as you had in KL little India but you had it with dhal...as for the transprent fruit you had in your ice kacang is called buah kabung (common sugar palm)...

[@JesperandVanessa]

Oh okay 😅 love that bread!

[@Jolivear]

roti prata curry has got mackerel longtong curry has got shrimp paste

[@JesperandVanessa]

Oh thank you for telling us! I mostly ate the bred liked it more without the curry 😄

[@stewlawph]

Bread (roti) has no meat. The curries are flavoured with lentil (dhal) or fish or chicken. If they add the meat, it costs more. Many times the curry is gravy without meat. They are fish styled or chicken styled. Fish is always sour. Safest to ask for "Dhal" (Lentils). Some places may have roti with separate fillings of butter, egg, fish, masala (mix veg), cheese or kaya (coconut curd). You should try roti tissue - if it is available. Ask for condensed milk to be drizzled onto it.

[@monishprabhu4427]

Try visiting Sentosa Island ,If you're still in Singapore.Btw ,Nice video

[@JesperandVanessa]

Thanks! Unfortunately we are not maybe next time 😊

[@azimashahid1981]

Partha is looking so yummy with potato 🥔 gravy.its Pakistani dish too

[@beckham48]

Thumb up for being a vegetarian, maybe next time you would like to try vegetarian mee Hoon, , is tasty with lots of veg things

[@bipiofficials]

The things you called artificial food actually is coconut jelly produced by the fermentation of coconut water(not coconut milk) & The things you thought is ice cube actually is southeast asia exotic fruits called buah kabung(Arenga pinnata or Sugar palm)

[@wonderful9223]

If your still in Singapore,go chomp chomp for seafood .. damn goood !!!first time watching your video love it !!

[@JesperandVanessa]

We don't eat seafood, but I'm glad you enjoyed the video 😁 just released a new video! 😊

[@jackyinhere]

@13:52 it's a kind of fruit (we call them atachi) aka nypa fruticans frui.

[@toni-kaku]

The white thing in the ice kacang was attap chee. The best part 😜

[@ignatiuschua5268]

You must try the best vegetarian bee hoon in Singapore in Tanglin Halt. Super delicious. Can order side dishes.

[@mik3yztv378]

white stuff is palm seed.

[@Orionraylee]

Next time u should try tiong bahru market instead one stop before Redhill Station.

[@triggerhappee]

Most Hawker stall open till lunch time so come before 1 pm

[@vinchonghh]

Roti Prata is Indian food.

[@johnfoo8400]

Great video, but as a Singaporean I feel bad because actually in hawkers, there should be a variety of vegetarian food available. Especially for Indian shops, to my knowledge, many Indians in Singapore are vegetarian. As for chinese, it's part of most Chinese religion to eat vegetarian.. Show them "素" word and they will understand. To also clarify, actually Hawker prices are more or less standardised. Because it's somewhat regulated the rentals are competitive and hence prices of Hawker food is somewhat similar despite it being in the cbd city area or in the "outskirts". If u do happen to drop by sg again I can recommend u some good vegetarian food tho, at least to a Chinese Singaporean tastebud 😂

[@JesperandVanessa]

Thanks, glad you liked it! Thank you so much for all that info! Really helpful. We definitely want to visit Singapore again 😁

[@andyanderson6908]

Set your next destination to Sabah, Malaysia in Borneo. Lot of tasty foods and nice places

[@JTan7788]

It is not even ice cream.It is just shaved ice with sweet flavourings.

[@mohamadzahidzainulabidin6862]

Both of you should eat roti prata/ canai Malaysia ,,1piece for 1 ringgit in my hometown, can eat roti canai until stomach explode By the way Singapore got award to be number one place in the world for streets food, They have the best the tastes street food in the world better than Malaysia and Thailand

[@JesperandVanessa]

Haha sounds awesome! Oh, had no idea 😃😋

[@stewlawph]

Singapore always grab undeserved accolades. Often it is hawkers of Malaysian origin who cook the best. Many S'poreans come over to M'sia for better foods. Few Malaysians go over for S'porean food.

[@BonkersAboutAlice]

You make me feel hungry.

[@ayieshahi4083]

The white things is call gabong or atap chee

[@swedesexplore5214]

"How hungry are you on a scale 1-10?" "100!" Haha totally sympathise! And long-tong (did I spell that right?) looked absolutely delicious!

[@JesperandVanessa]

Hahaha, I think Jesper liked it better than me 😄

[@ronin6932]

A little correction. The dish called lontong. It takes the name from the rice cake. I think it is a malay dish. You can find it in Malaysia and Indonesia.

[@JesperandVanessa]

Yeeeeeiii! 🙌🏽😄 Singapore is a very cool country! Yeah very clean and organized. We try our best to eat plant based, it's quite a challenge some days. Apparently the fruit is called nypa fruticans, Google it looks quite similar to lychee. Lots of love from us to you My Love! 😚❤

Carrot cake is fried with eggs

[@JesperandVanessa]

Okay, thanks for letting us know!

[@stewlawph]

@@JesperandVanessa You can ask them not to add the egg. Then it is just garlic and minced preserved cabbage, bean spouts with the white radish cake. In M'sia it is often fried with a black soya sauce which adds more flavour.

lontong sayur (rice cake with vegetables) is originally Indonesian food..it's also popular in Malaysia and SIngapore. 13:04 in Indonesia we call it KOLANG KALING, fruit from Enau tree (coconut tree variety)
