Little did we know that the locals would be so kind and help us in making sure we try the right food. We went Vincent in the 1950’s Kopi shop where he said that a Kopi with condense milk is a mult try when in Singapore.

    Some constructive feedback and fun facts

    1. Only the East West (Green) Line and the North South (Red) Line have both elevated (above ground) and underground stations. All Light Rail Transit (LRT) stations indicated in grey are fully elevated (above ground). All other lines are fully underground.

    2. It is normal to see such a crowd on weekends at around 1:13 and 2:47, because people have more time to spare on weekends.

    3. The 'massive buildings' that you mentioned and filmed at 8:33 is actually a block of flats, which is a place of residence for local Singaporeans.

    4. The soy sauce that you mentioned at 16:20 is actually a type of Chinese black vinegar called Chinkiang Vinegar or Zhenjiang Vinegar.

    5. It is necessary to eat Xiao Long Bao with chopsticks and a spoon. You first pick up a Xiao Long Bao from the basket and place it on the spoon. You will have to nip a hole at the side of the Xiao Long Bao on the spoon, then tilt the Xiao Long Bao such that the hole is facing the spoon to get all the flavourful broth out onto the spoon. Drink the broth first. After drinking the broth, dip the Xiao Long Bao into the Chinkiang Vinegar and enjoy it together with ginger slices.

    6. From what I saw at 15:57, the stall owner was bringing the container of ginger into the kitchen. If you wanted the ginger, you can kindly ask the stall assistant for the ginger. Generally, people will first take their desired amount of ginger slices, then pour the vinegar over and allow the ginger to absorb some of the vinegar taste.

    7. At 20:41, the coffee uncle adds the hot water to your kopi, which has condensed milk. If you want your coffee to be thicker, say 'Kopi Gao', where less hot water is added. If you want super concentrated full-on strength coffee, say 'Kopi Ti Loh'. 'Ti Loh' means pour all the way, which means without the additional hot water at 20:41.

    Small correction – you can directly tap your credit/debit card to enter/exit stations. Only available in Singapore

    You should eat xiaolongbao with both chopsticks and a spoon. Also you need to be careful as the soup is very hot. We usually eat with a side condiment of black vinegar and shredded ginger

    It could have been good blog but impersonation of different ethnicity speaking English is really bad taste. Dont think you like people mimic you when you speak other foreign language. Please be more sensitive

    i feel sorry for you, nobody warn you that is best to use a spoon to eat the dumplings coz it's very hot and the soup rather than sauce from the dumplings will burn your tongue. The dipping is not soy sauce is black vinegar.

    In the old days the people who liver in those old buildings you see in Chinatown were very poor. Also the buildings were used for opium smoking

    3 for 10 3 for 10, still remember when I got a chance to visit Singapore, great city, very organized and clean. The bamboo cake actually called kue putu in Indonesia. And my wife craving that when she pregnant with our 2nd kid. I go around to look and found kue dongkal near market at my house , I ask her if she want that as subs (basically the same but with different look). She wont and insist for kue putu, amazingly when I tried to go home, just not long after I hear the signature sound of kue putu stall and he actually want to go the the market. I bought some and mission accomplished
