[@shookimoto-kl2jd]

こんにちは！！！ I am sorry I couldn’t speak up early but heard lots of people concerned that Ghib-san was not aware of my allergies. However he kindly explained before the shooting and yet I’m the one who wanted to join, cuz I like to talk to people HAHA. Thank you very much for your kindness and my apologies for the trouble 🙇‍♂️ ただ動画撮影とても楽しかったですよー！😊

[@japrpg]

thanks for explaining Sho-san! I felt so guilty and uncomfortable watching you just....watch.

[@shookimoto-kl2jd]

I feel bad to make audiences feel in that way… ごめんなさい。 But pls pls know that Ghib-san is such a humorous and kind gentleman. (That’s why I wanted to join this time as well)

[@XianHong-op7rn]

stress

[@hime_ai]

Very nice and kind of you to explain it here. Feel bad that you couldn't try most of the food. But guess what? I can't have them too... I have shellfish allergy, so I can't have seafood with shells (like shrimp, lobster. crab. scallops, clams)

[@stevejen3416]

Sho-San, your Singlish is perfect 👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻I’m so impressed. You guys are so fun to watch. Hope to chat with you some day ✌️

[@NEAAFFAIRS]

If I meet Sho overseas and he speak English, I will really think he's Singaporean.

[@supreme87878]

True!

[@dkj6946]

He even looks like a Singaporean more than a Jap

[@maxmin2031]

His accent is somewhere between a typical singapore and little twist of foreigner accent.

[@cktalon7519]

@@maxmin2031 Sounds like the typical Singaporean from the 'branded' schools

[@rjjrjehehew]

Nah, you just want to call everyone Singaporean, whether is ah tiong or angmoh fresh off the plane, sporean means nothing ndwys

[@danielyapesque]

Sho doesn’t only speak Singlish. His gestures are also like your quirky platoon mate’s.

[@sgmei]

Sho-san sus, confirm Japanese or not??? HAHAHA.. I love how confident everyone is when speaking English, I work in a Japanese company and some of them are just really too shy to try speaking and we end up speaking Japanese. Like how Sho-san said we are able to switch as when we need hahaha (just watch Singaporeans suddenly speak with accent in whatever country they're in to blend in) I think we are all pretty proud of Singlish.

[@peterlee9691]

People in this video was speaking English? I had the subtitles on, I thought they were all speaking in a foreign language?

[@vnc81]

Sho San is so humorous. Perfect Singlish😂

[@crosbyong]

“It’s the first time I discover English doesn’t need to be perfect”, YIKES! LOL Enjoyed this video but your meals were so enticing! I was salivating!

[@bluelingen]

Even Sho-san's Nihongo got Singaporean accent. 😁

[@willie8452]

Ohhh 8crabs!! Their black pepper crab sauce is The BOMB!!!

[@sci90174]

Please lah....Sho is Singaporean already lah!

[@Edesonism]

did sho grew up in singapore? his sporean accent dam strong sia, if I hear him outside I will think he's sporean totally

[@IZTheOne]

Sho-san English is our English sadly he can't switch to a proper one, hopefully he can work on that lol! Thank you for the great interview, may all the students be successful in life and happy too!

[@weshz2429]

Best vlog🎉❤

[@exs1803]

Wow this is a real feast of some of the top local dishes. Unbelievable. Delicious. Food heaven.

[@chenyinmei6466]

Yes, I switch from singlish to English pretty easy myself..love this video..all of you are so compatible..so entertaining..love it..thanks..felt bad for sho for not being able to join in the eating..but yah..ghib did day he owe him a meal..😊

[@cheahtiong3930]

I like your video very interesting. Thump up.

[@gera.w]

Sho is right 😂 I switch between casual singlish with friends who are singlish speaking too but at work, I speak proper english and even overseas, I “upgrade” my english accordingly .. that said I also “downgrade” my singlish standard to match my group of friends 😎 Depending on how chinese speaking they are, I also start to include any amount of chinese in my english Also wanna say, poor Sho, he hardly ate much of any of the food showcased in this episode 😂

[@silverchairsg]

Yep if I am talking to a foreigner I will try not to use any slang or lah/leh/lor and enunciate a bit clearer.

[@kennyzeng21]

wow the last guy speaks with a Sg accent, impressive

[@Vecise443]

Had 8Crabs! Was amazing. The crabs my family and i had were full of juicy meat!!!!!! Happy to see them featured by ghib!

[@GhibOjisan]

I was also surprised by the quality too! SO GOOD!

[@haruhi7745]

Ah great enjoyment to watch them able to try Singapore delicious foods👍🌸❤️

[@GhibOjisan]

They loved everything!

[@silverchairsg]

Except Sho 😂😂😂

[@hlim431]

Wonderful to see students from Japan so happy in SG... so much delicious food for $100 SGD!

[@wwpoof]

Yep, me watching this after midnight. N as usual, so much delish foods make me hungry sigh. I don't know the name of the young lady, but she speaks good English without Japanese accent! Awesome 👍. As for sho San, yah I also wonder whether he's Japanese or not (lol). He speaks so like a SGrean and he's funny or rather Ghib san is funny to put in our prime minister's name. That was a good "catch" there. Ahh... I see now there's a camera man. So wifey no need to help w. the camera and is now "promoted" to become the "consultant" on SG culture, lol. Thanks Ghib san and his young sporting guests for another entertaining video ❤️😇.

[@Galovesongs]

Poor Sho not being able to eat the dishes. I'm allergic to crabs too so I can imagine the disappointment!

[@amyg1073]

❤ this show

[@alui5362]

oh noooo so sad sho san can't eat so many things!! such a sporting guy though

[@thegreenbaby9365]

Ghib as usual with such a humorous style of hosting and all of these young folks so sporting 👍

[@elizabethtl4936]

Awwwww give some mantou to Sho lah 😅

[@miyazakihiroshi2548]

今回の動画に出てた若い3人めっちゃイキイキしてて正直羨ましい。ついでに洗濯物の部屋干しの臭い件はファブリーズで解決出来るぞ🤣

[@GhibOjisan]

若いって素晴らしい、、と思いました・・

[@relackjack]

Sho-san did you speak singlish during your job interview? No singlish during interviews!

[@LeonHoooo]

My direct manager is a japanese here in Singapore, and I’m just wondering are japanese managers very reserve and not build rapport with subordinates?

[@lieny]

Sho’s English sounds like a typical singaporean guy omg I’m so shocked 😭

[@cheewoeing1598]

I am more curious on where you rented this place. Looks fun

[@sayurik]

This video exists just to torture Sho-san 😂

[@AvengeBasketball]

Sho has potential to be co host lol.

[@jess5034]

Hi Ghib, wonderful video. The food looks great! I would like to bring my family there. May i have a good estimate of the total cost of that meal (everything) shown?

[@GhibOjisan]

I think it’s around $400-600 cos we ordered a lot, can feed 10 people🤣

[@goddanner]

Sho san's singlish really got the Singaporean flavour, efficient, fast and short. Wish him all the success in his future endeavors back in Japan. Hope the 2 new Japanese exchange student gain as much while they are in Singapore!!

[@RiceSnow777]

Sho is Singaporean lah!

[@Yongshen82]

Sho is so Singaporean, haha

[@soorobin]

Wow! Your mother in law really can cook lol.

[@dawnho7744]

Sho's Singlish accent is rather strong. Possibly because he has been here for 4 years and has a SG girlfriend. Akari has a very strong American accent. Hindi's hard. I amazed that she's studying that. I have a feeling that Ryo may want to migrate here for good. Poor Sho. The only thing he could eat was tofu. Ghib should have checked for any food allergies that they might have before the shoot and request for something more palatable for everyone.

[@simbeekuan4056]

Wow! The seafood looked so delicious. Pity that Sho guy who had the allergy. The gal don't even looked Japanese. They could easily blend in with Singaporeans

[@MaximSupernov]

They look Singaporean or Malaysian.

[@sneo7470]

👍👏💪🇸🇬

[@burninghands23]

Room acoustics of the rented space really CMI

[@judyquek2362]

Singapore is the best country in the world.

[@silverchairsg]

Local Indian Singaporeans speak Tamil actually, not Hindi. It's because most of their ancestors came from Tamil Nadu. (There are also Gujaratis, Malayali, Chettairs etc, but the majority came from Tamil Nadu and so Tamil is their Mother Tongue by default.) So if the girl wants to speak Hindi she should find some India Indians because they are more likely to speak Hindi. Anyway I recommend the girl sit in on the lectures for the Singapore Studies module on South Asians in Singapore (if they are still teaching it nowadays). You can just sit in the LT and listen in without registering. I learnt quite a lot about our local Indians when I took it.

[@catceline1]

Say reals Sho san can become the next sg youtuber also HAHAAH damn funny Thanks Ghib Ojisan for this video! Very candid, casual, but insightful to share cultural quirks over a good seafood meal. Make me feel hungry sia 😁😋

[@sujaniaslam2428]

1st 😁

[@Edesonism]

feel so bad for sho tan as he cant eat almost all the food presented to him and have to watch others eat... :(

[@alexsolosm]

Sho needs to come back to Singapore... His Singlish is too perfect that it will be a waste for him to stay in Japan!

[@sujaniaslam2428]

wow Ghib, 皆さん　と　食べて、楽しい　ね、that food really yummy so, maybe will try one day,, 皆さんに　よろしくお願いします,, 😬👍

[@domo3858]

Sho explaining how Singaporeans can actually codeswitch (which many foreigners don't know about), but his only English is the Singlish. Rip. Hahahaha.

[@philho.youtube]

Singlish sounds like like how first generation Chinese immigrants to the US/UK speak English, but mixed with Malay and other languages.

[@chaotiongsai]

Totally NOT. I suggest you go and KZbin look for videos of thick Chinese accent speaking English. It sounds NOTHING like Singapore accented English. In chinglish they are even unable to pronounce one syllabic words like “bug”, in one syllable LOL the Chinese would say Bag-Ke (two syllables) when they try to say bug. Hahahahah and so funny go and watch videos of chinglish before you daydream that chinglish is like singlish

[@kennySg101]

Japan is perceived as very closed and homogenous society. It is difficult to become japanese citizen, not many foriegn workers compared to other asian countries.

[@osimese]

that black suit guy talk like singaporean

[@cathhl2440]

2nd

[@Lalalalalelo]

The objective of this video is to torture Sho and make him salivate due to his crustacean allergy

[@nicisdebest]

Lol poor Sho couldn't eat most of the stuff then they bring out the vegetables (sambal kangkong) and he can't eat that too Lol Lets hope the next meal Sho gets is a feast just as good.

[@heesingsia4634]

Feel so sorry for the geezer who can't eat most of the dishes

[@LWC8]

Do not be deceived. The crab portions you see in the video are not the crab sizes they serve for the 3 Crab Bundles. The video shows you crabs about 1kg big but the website indicates in fine print the crabs are only 500g big. I've ordered from 8 Crabs about 3 times in the past and each time, I am very disappointed with their miserable portions. Shrunken crabs, 3 spoonfuls of kang kong, tiny tofu, etc. Their website pictures are very misleading. They claim it's for 4 to 5 persons but it's more like for 2 persons realistically. I've decided not to order from them anymore because of their miserable portions (and I'm not exaggerating). It's a pity because I think the taste is not bad. The pepper crab sauce is very good. But is it worth the price? No!

[@supreme87878]

Most local indian in singapore belongs to Tamil, sikh and hindi they are minority in the indian community.

[@sweeleongng333]

Next time please check with your guest earlier got any food allergy or not so you can order him some food that he can eat and not just see everyone eating but he not able to eat.

[@waterlily43]

Ya lo see him so poor thing everything also can't eat.

[@jessicamong1586]

Poor guy with seafood allergy only see food diet. Ghid should get some other food for him.

[@Towkeeyoh]

Feel SO BAD for Sho in this ep... must be torture to be there... I'm at least safe from not smelling it while watching this... if i were him, i'd just stuffed myself with the food and accept my death

[@opticalsoap]

poor guy...

[@sgholidae]

Why nobody pity Sho cannot eat much in this video? Allergy information not known beforehand by host?

[@RaptureOnCloudNo.9]

しょさんは可哀そう！何も食べられない！🥲

[@karweigoh3282]

he have a SG gf who speaks her own mind? really anot

[@analekaites5215]

Could have offered the buns to the guy who has allergies eating crab & shrimp ...
