SINGAPORE FOOD TOUR: First Time Trying Iconic Dishes, Snacks & Desserts

[@RainingDarkChocolate]

What sets you guys apart from other small travel vloggers I've watched visiting Singapore is that you guys really do your research on the different foods and beverages here to the point of even knowing their history and variants, not to forgot all the almost spot on pronunciations. that was really impressive for me as a local. What worries me sometimes is when tourists end up going for less popular/mediocre food stalls and leaving disappointed, thankfully you guys seem to know your way around. Love the work.

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thank you for the kind words, that means a lot! 🙂 We always try to do some basic research, although we often feel that we could be better prepared 😁 And in the end the best source is always just chatting to locals anyway 😊

[@riptide101]

Great video glad to see you enjoying the local food. Just a few key points for you guys to note for future reference! 1. Theres not such thing as egg vermicelli noodles. Vermicelli would indicate that the noodles is made from rice. 2. Hainanese Chicken Rice is not actually from Hainan and you cant find it there. It's named that way because the dish was created and perfected by the Hainanese who were living in Singapore. The reason u like it so much is because the chicken isnt actuallly 'boiled', but rather poached in aromatics and then cold shocked in cold water to lock in the moistness 3. Nobody ever eats rice with a chopstick, unless the rice is served in a bowl, you will never see anyone eating rice from a plate with chopsticks. Just stick with fork and spoon in such cases, the appropriate choice would be what you guys are actually used to :)

[@ZoeandSimon]

Glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for the infos! 🙂 The technique for cooking the chicken is really nifty, we'll have to try to use that for cooking at home as well 😁

[@RainingDarkChocolate]

@@ZoeandSimon As for the rice, I'm no chef but I believe it's cooked in chicken stock/broth for that distinct flavour.

[@NerdTae]

raw rice is usually sautéed in ginger paste and chicken fat first, then together with chicken broth it is added to the rice cooker. the chinese dessert mango gui ling gao, you guys tried is really obscure and is really not a common choice, not something i would recommend to foreigners. the place as well, not that well known... you could try Mei Heong Yuen Dessert 味香园 just nearby in chinatown for more choices. Jangut laksa is really just a chain place and I would recommend heading to Katong laksa instead.

[@lesliechiang1710]

Is the first time I seen the mango gui ling gao in my whole life and will never want to try that... lol.. Just the gui ling gao suffice and they are usually served with some sweet syrup (honey) to cover the slight bitterness, that's how Chinese like it and common in China too.

[@kewei1102]

Hi Zoe & Simon, I’ve really enjoyed the videos so far! It’s really refreshing to see that you’ve taken the effort to do research on the different dishes. 👍🏼 Did you guys get to try our Malay and Indian food as well? Our Malay and Indian friends make really delicious food, and along with the Chinese food, is what makes Singapore the diverse hotpot of a country it is. “Hot” pot get it? Cause Singapore is hot.. 🥵😅 I hope you feel cooler because of my cold joke 😭😂 some of my personal go to Malay food are mee rebus, mee soto, nasi lemak and the kueh kuehs. As for Indian food, I adore roti prata, Indian rojak, nasi briyani, butter chicken and naan, kambing soup! Hope you had/have an enjoyable stay here 🙌🏼

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thank you very much! We're glad you're enjoying our videos 😊 We love Indian and Malay food and we did also spend quite a bit of time in Little India (not on camera though). It was really good! We're really jealous of the great variety of food that Singapore has. Back home in Germany it's often very hard to find places that serve really good Asian cuisines. We'll also be releasing videos from our time in Malaysia soon and we tried a lot of super tasty things there too 🙂

[@Buster475]

I really like how open and respectful you guys are to cusines that are probably very different from what you are used to.

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thanks, we really enjoy trying food from new cuisines and food in Asia to us is just the best 😁

[@clare1072]

Just discovered your channel 🙂 If you ever crave chicken rice, you can google the recipe and make it anywhere in the world. The rice is so fragrant because of the ginger, shallot, garlic and chicken broth. I make it frequently here in California when I miss home 🇸🇬

[@ZoeandSimon]

That sounds really nice, we're definitely planning to cook some chicken rice at home in addition to other great dishes we discovered while travelling 😋

[@jon8697]

Singapore have: 1) hawker (no aircon) - where more traditional and good quality food local cook 2) kopitiam (no aircon) - usually under a HDB block. Like a smaller version of hakwer 4) food court (aircon) - comfortable but more expensive. Food ane average as most are new stall and cook by foreigner.

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thanks, that's a good overview!

[@leewn2319]

Hi, welcome to Sg. The main ingredients in Popiah are : (1) Rice skin wrap (2) Stir fry & stewed Asian turnip, (3) chili paste (4) mashed garlic paste (5) sweet dark soya sauce (6) bean sprouts etc. If you deep fry Popuah, it’s the usual spring roll exclude the paste.

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thanks for the info! 😊

[@furball8732]

You guys should try the nyonya laksa in katong and while you're at it try cendol for a typical Singaporean dessert instead.

[@stevenelson3515]

Roxy Square has fantastic Laksa.

[@kavb2518]

your vlogs just keep getting better and better! (they’re already awesome to begin with). really enjoying this one. did you guys use to work in the culinary industry? okay now back to the video :)

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thanks a lot for the kind words! We're glad you're enjoying our videos 😊 We never worked in any culinary industry, we're just very enthusiastic about food 🙂 We also like to cook a lot and when we travel we often plan our days around visiting new food spots.

[@JaswantSingh-ym9zo]

Kopi is the Malay name for coffee. Singaporean Chinese adopted the name too as before the 70s anyone in Singapore who didn't speak English spoke Malay besides their own dialect

[@httmd1]

Hi. You two are making me hungry 😋

[@mamamememoo]

The best Popiah is at Toa Payoh HDB Hub’s basement food court. The entrance to it is next to the McDonald’s back door. Take the escalator down. It is the first stall to the right. Long Q. His Rojak is amazing.

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thanks for the recommendation!

[@daffodilstang5292]

Just started watching your vlogs on Singapore. Appreciate your calm n clear narration, n filming with firm hands.👍 Will be watching more. Missed food from home(Singapore). Hope to go back soon. Greetings from🗾💞

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thank you! Glad you're enjoying our videos 🙂

[@zueinder89]

damn, you guy really hit all the legit ones. Well done, hehe.

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thanks! 😁

[@simplyme3306]

The original Noodle story stall is in Amoy food centre LOL. There are tons of good food stalls at Amoy hawker and Chinatown food centre. There's no hoisin sauce in the rojak. It has mainly prawn paste, sugar and some aromatics like ginger flower etc. Now that you have tried Tian Tian, you can try other more popular outlets for locals and make a comparison :D The chicken rice is cooked in the chicken stock from poaching the chicken and other aromatics like ginger, garlic, shallots, pandan leaves and some add a knob of butter. You guys are very adventurous though. Thumbs Up!

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thanks for the infos, we really like that technique for cooking the rice and it explains how it gets its great flavour 😁 And yeah we've now got to try other vendors to compare!

[@limchyehock6722]

After poaching the chicken are then soaked in ice Yes literally buried in chunks of ice. Watch the documentary on Tien Tien Chicken Rice.

[@henrylowlupwee5219]

Zoe thank you for your introduction of salty lychee drink. Can't wait to try

[@ZoeandSimon]

[@user-um8wi5ym4y]

Most laksa gravy in Singapore isn't thick. The only laksa stall with thicker gravy I can think of is Depot Road Zhen Shan Mei Laksa at Alexandra Village Food Centre. The basic ingredients in the rice in chicken rice is chicken stock, rendered chicken fat, garlic cloves, ginger and pandan leaves.

[@ZoeandSimon]

It was probably also just a lack of flavour that made it seem a bit watery. It wasn't bad, but we tried some laksa after this and it just was a bit more rounded 🙂

[@mkngpauline]

Katong laksa is one of the better tasteful ones.

[@foodmore]

The herbal jelly is something that u have to get used to as you are growing up. As it is bitter, we usually put some syrup on it to balance out. If you start tasting it since young, it slowly becomes more palatable as you grow older. But I wouldn’t recommend it as a first time dessert for anyone not familiar with it because it can be quite bitter and not so “dessert-like”.

[@ZoeandSimon]

Yeah, it's not the first taste we'd think of if somebody mentions dessert 😁 But as with everything unusual it takes a few times until it clicks, so we'll have to give it another try at some point.

[@foodmore]

@@ZoeandSimon Anyway if u want to try laksa, there are a couple that you can try. 328 Katong Laksa, 928 Yishun Laksa, Sungei Road Laksa. My personal favourite is from a shop that doesn’t even specialise in Laksa but has it like a secondary dish. If you can find a stall called “Tian Tian Chi Mian”(they have a few outlets in foodcourts), do try their Laksa. I love that it’s thick and creamy. And very tasty.

[@mkngpauline]

I would not recommend typical Chinese desserts to westerners as they are acquired taste. A good try of popular local desserts are chendol, ice kacang, and many varieties of mixed ingredients showcased on the dessert stall signboards.

[@exs1803]

You guys are adventurous to try out the local food. Hope you really enjoyed the different varieties of food available. Just for info, the dressing for rojak is made from shrimp paste not palm sugar or hoisin sauce (which is salty and used for cooking). it taste sweet because plain refined sugar has been added to it. Some love whilst others hate this dish because of the strong pungent flavour from the shrimp paste.This is not the Indonesian version.

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thanks for the info 🙂

[@cuclainne]

Pomelo mango sago is THE dessert you ought to try.. better still with a dollop of durian puree on top 😁

[@ZoeandSimon]

That also sounds nice, we'll give it a try next time 😊

[@xeenslayer]

Hot damn, you guys have been feasting a lot here! Hope you can come back for more next time!

[@ZoeandSimon]

Yeah, we had a great time! 😁 And we'll be back for sure, there's just so much to see - and eat.

[@ixactan69]

Curry puffs in Singapore do have a few variations. The one you ate is more towards the Chinese version; big with lots of fillings and often with slice of boiled egg. There is the Malay version which is also known as epok-epok; mostly either potato or sardine filling. Personally I prefer the Malay version because the crust is crispier and smaller size as a snack more ideal. There is also the Indian version which often has a flaky layered crust and sometimes look like a samosa. All three have their own camp of supporters. Amazing you guys can accept rojak. Many foreigners new in Singapore often will frown at rojak for the explosion of different flavours of this dish. There is an urban myth back in the 1950s that laksa were cooked with "earthworms" for the umami taste...

[@ZoeandSimon]

The other versions of curry puffs also sound really nice, we'll have to give them a try 🙂 And yes, we like intense flavours, so Rojak is perfect for us 😁

[@mkngpauline]

Rojak sauce is made with thick shrimp paste (not oyster sauce) and tamarind water with sugar, lime, banana flower and ground peanuts (add chilli paste if want spicy)

[@huaiwei]

@@ZoeandSimon are there are two main types of "rojak" here. The one you ate, and "Indian rojak", which has the same concept of a "rojak", but the ingredients are very different. ;)

[@edwardlim82]

I’m really surprised you guys know the short-cut way to Maxwell food Center, which is via Ann Siang Hill. Well done 👏👏👏😀

[@ZoeandSimon]

It was a bit of luck too, but yeah it's a good one! 😁

[@burtonkoek663]

Rojak gravy is made with using fermented Shrimp paste.

[@limchyehock6722]

There's no hoisin sauce in rojak.

[@Barracuda72]

Did you go to East coast food village must go and try just beside a sea side and you can ride a bicycle to explore the vicinity of the sea side

[@MsEverAfterings]

I love the popiah at Maxwell market! I think it’s the best.

[@ZoeandSimon]

We'll try that next time! 🙂

[@teosingapore3609]

Try the laksa at Queensway Shopping Centre…ground floor..there are two shops..go for the one where there is always a queue…not the Katong Laksa store..

[@SuccessforLifester]

Tangs Market popiah looks good. I wanted to try it last week but there was a queue. I need to rush off to watch Top Gun Maverick and couldn't wait.

[@ZoeandSimon]

😁 We really enjoyed the food at Tangs, we also had some more fried carrot cake and that was nice too!

[@retrogamescheat]

Guilingao is made from turtle jelly or turtle powder from its shell if I'm not wrong! Great video!

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thank you, we didn't know that 😁

[@leswongft]

Best laksa can be found in East Coast Katong!

[@suayhughes8103]

Nice experience enjoy food and stay safe

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thank you! Stay safe! 😊

[@yoshi9489]

Rojak main sauce ingredient is from the prawn head. That's why it gives that sticky texture

[@edwincheng8682]

The rice from the chicken rice are actually cooked with the water/stock (or with the oil/fats that floated on the stock) that poached the chickens. Hence the fragrance and gloss.

[@ZoeandSimon]

That makes sense, it's full of flavour!

[@mkngpauline]

Besides the chicken stock, some add garlic, ginger and even pandan leaves (a sweet smelling fragrant leaves) cook together with the rice to make them smell and taste really yummy.

[@vinko_79]

Fun fact: you cant find Hainanese chicken rice in Hainan! It was the Hainanese immigrants in Singapore that created the dish about a hundred years ago... hence why Hainanese chicken rice is very Singaporean, whereas you can get normal chicken rice in M'sia/ Indonesia as well.

[@mimib1142]

If you are still in SG. Please eat at YUMMY YAP. Will beat Michelin noodle hands down.

[@endi4654]

For desserts.. Try chendol and Cheng ting as well!

[@SuccessforLifester]

This Tong Heng I always walked past but never buy before. I think their target customers are tourist. The store looks quite premium. Ok I saw your pricing 2 SGD. Yes it is expensive for me. I would prefer to buy a Big Bao/Pau that comes with meat fillings

[@ZoeandSimon]

Yeah it does seem more premium. It was nice to try, but we also wouldn't go there every day 😁

[@SuccessforLifester]

@@ZoeandSimon I think they reported in news during covid that they are facing loss of business as tourists disappeared. My last comment weirdly disappeared

[@pringlessourcream9527]

Chicken rice is cooked in chicken broth. If rice comes on a plate, you need fork and spoon, chopsticks is completely useless. Rojak mixed in shrimp paste and lime juice.

[@JinLaiOfficial]

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thank you! 🙂

[@raymondoaroundtheworld5929]

Would recommend you try “bah kut teh” too, another iconic Singaporean dish. Kind of like a peppery pork rib soup served with rice. Malaysia also has a version of it which is more herbal based. Quite a lot of debate over which one is better! 😉 Really enjoy all your videos, keep it up! 🙏

I've been watching so many other videos that features only chinese food and sleeping on the other two cuisines.

[@ZoeandSimon]

Thank you! Yeah we also noticed afterwards that we selected a lot of Chinese food for this video 😁We also spent a lot of time exploring and eating in Little India and also trying Malay dishes, but we didn't film that unfortunately. It was all very delicious though! 😊

[@mandy_145]

I agree with you, Afiq. It’s very frustrating 🤔. I had been suggesting to food vloggers to try our Malay & Indian food like meesiam, mee rebus, mee soto, soto ayam, Indian rojak, mee goreng, etc etc……After about 5 years, no vlogger tried them. Kind of boring. These foreigners are always eating the same food like chicken rice, laksa,………

[@ZoeandSimon]

@@mandy_145 Yeah, it can get a bit boring if everyone is trying the same things - we can understand that! But when visiting Singapore for the first time it would also be strange not to try all of these classic dishes 😁 But it's true that Singapore has so much more to offer and we did also try a lot of Indian and Malay food (just not on camera). Next time we'll make videos about that too 🙂

Uh that also sounds interesting!

[@bensgoodeats1493]

There are much better chicken rice in Singapore and I have tried Tian Tian before. I would not recommend Tian Tian to tourists though. First it is a bit dry , second no soup, third chilli is too spicy . My favourite chicken rice at stall B1-35 Golden Mile food centre which you guys visited before. At Maxwell food centre , Tong Fong Fatt chicken rice is much better than Tian Tian. Also in Singapore when you order chicken rice for 1 person you must say Ji Tui (drumstick) or Ji Wei (tail end). Otherwise they give you breast meat which is not really so nice .

[@SuccessforLifester]

I noted now most stalls would charge you extra if you specify the parts. Do you know that for a long time I always ask for breast meat as it is most chunky. Then one day, a friend said I should go for Ji Wei. I have been requesting this since but recently I stopped after I found that they are charging extra.

[@bensgoodeats1493]

@@SuccessforLifester I ordered Ji Tui at hawker centre opposite Chinese Garden MRT. It was $4.50.

Because is inconsistent, sometimes is good sometimes not where the chicken lacks of flavour or at times the rice is undercooked. Another one that is really good, consistent but pricey is Boon Tong Kee

I tried maybe twice so far. I find that the rice was too salty after they drizzled it with some juice. I don't like it.
