Exotic Asian Meats!! Singapore’s Extreme China Town Menu!! 

Yeah, I don't think there's any fat at all! It's just connective tissue. I've seen it cooked (in Mexican food) where it was chewy and entirely transparent. Strange waxy texture. It wouldn't be my first choice! But these hawkers seem like they know how to cook. I would have eaten anything we saw today, and some rice to go with it. Our food/travel guys never seem to want to eat rice, but that pig's knuckle (say) seemed like it would have really gone well with a bowl of rice! Or maybe a steamed bun. I thought for SURE Sonny was going to get something with a FISH HEAD on it, since that seemed to be in a few signs.

Agree

@@leonardpearlman4017 He likely doesn't want rice when he has to eat a lot of dishes in a short time; it would be too filling.

Yep. Mostly protein. I kind of like the texture in Viet and other Asian food. Cook it long enough and it turns into glue.

Its hard for me to try, we generally throw thise away, whenever i bite into "nerve" my gag reflex goes off

It's like eating zhongzi with the wrapping on, yummy fibre.

Second this. We scrape off the flesh and discard the skin too

I always eat it with skin on. No issue lah. 🤗

I’m a young mexican trying to make it out the Hood , i smoke weed on my RU-vid channel & i did a Mukbang inside of Lowes🥷🔥

I eat it with the skin here too haha. Up to your taste bah.

Hope I can visit one day! 🙃

I think it's prerecorded, most videos from this channel as well

@@oyaoya5200 definitely same like Mark Wiens. I assumed they traveled together but filmed separately. Not entirely sure if they shot this early or late last year.

@@tommyfield8449 it was after Sonny got married, so we can at least know that it’s not that old. ✌🏻😊 With Mark’s videos I always look at how big Micah is in the videos to gauge how old or new the content is. 😄

Yo...that's crazy food...we give it a try. USA,ARKANSAS

And all sorts of shellfish! I'm a local and can tell you where to find the exotics.

Second this and add Tulang Merah! Slurping marrow out of a gravy bone is great fun.

stingray 🤤🤤

If exotic meats, there is a turtle soup stall, frog porridge stall, stingray stall, various shellfish , black chicken soup, various pork, beef, chicken, mutton innards , shark meat Lor mee, century egg porridge, preserved meat dishes, chicken feet in Thai sweet sauce , mutton bone marrow, mutton brain soup, all in same hawker centre. Yeah, it’s that big.

And yet, every time he eats cucumber, he complains about how bad it is. I totally relate tbf, cucumber sucks

@@A_Balanced_Breakfast you are simply wrong cucumber is amazing

Just another fan of BEFS here, but I like your comment. I’m from the US and Singapore is on my bucket list of travel and food places! So, I copied your comment for things to try while I’m there. ☺️ Thank you for sharing! I knew about chili crab as it’s easily the most famous Singaporean food, globally. I’d also like to try salted egg yolk crab, is it as good as chili crab? I watch another RU-vid creator who is from Singapore, so I’ve seen some of your more famous foods in their videos. But they mostly do content of the other ethnic foods you can find while in Singapore…so again, thank you for your recommendations. ✌🏻🥰😊

@@melissadunton3534 salted egg yolk crab is alright but I prefer their black pepper crab more as it has that oomph from the spice. To be honest with you, all of the food is really good! And make sure to try the hainanese chicken rice too

he intro exotic food.....

@@jamesmckinnon9312 thanks! I will 😊

​@@melissadunton3534 Salted egg yolk crab depends on how the chef cooks it, some of the sauces are wet while some are like of a sandy texture (dry?). Salted egg yolk flavor was a huge trend in Singapore, you can try Irvin's salted egg chips or fried fish skin (It's a local brand, i think there is one store available in the airport). Hope that helps!

Fried fish skin is super tasty!

Fried fish skin is actually really good, if you like the crispy skin on a salmon you'd definitely love it

ur under haostage

I always eat the skin. It’s actually my favourite part 😂😂

You should try chopped up cucumbers (with the skin on) with salt sprinkled over it and drizzled in balsamic vinegar and olive oil or Italian dressing. It’s a great snack for a hot summer day!

I am in the "no skin" faction.

That’s what it’s called in English

@@HungryPolarBear Lolzzzz

no such thing as carex or demox or realx or shinex or carex or not ore affecx about carex, or hx or etc, say, laux, can sayx, laux etc any nmw s perfx

@@zes7215 did you break?

🎉🎉🎉

Yeap, no skins for us too. 🤭

none of the food he ate is really exotic tbh

I went to China and tried anything that was put in front of me, these were really common dishes there

@@benjaminvanizshotz295 Depends entirely on where you are from.

🤣🤣🤣

Ya, i was surprised as well , i guess growing up, we were taught to just eat the meat and ignore the skin and this just continued for us as an of cos thing

🤣🤣🤣 Pro tips in the comments!

Its a sign I should visit for the 1st time! 🙃

Okay!

@@elangum22 it literally almost tastes like nothing

@@alexmendez5875 y'all got shit cucumbers, mine are flavourful

@@6_blocks_under I like the taste of cucumbers too. That doesn't change the fact that cucumbers have a light and mild flavor lol

@@elangum22 no, it’s tastes refreshing and a lil bit grassy if unpeeled. It’s wonderful and delicious, haha

@@alexmendez5875 cucumber tastes like a mild melon to me and I don’t really like melons like watermelon

I always wondered this too. if they just waste the food or save/give it away

he eats it with his crew after every take

His crew and sometimes wifey gets the scrabs :D But I don't think they mind :D

Kalamansi in the Philippines

@@darkertoyo997 Calamansi in the US. 🙂 I find it so cool how different cultures have such similar names for so many foods, vegs and herbs. I’m kind of a food and language nerd. 😆

@@melissadunton3534 yeah. Many filipinos in the US use kalamansi.

@@darkertoyo997 cool to know!!

limau kasturi is the malay name
