@simplyme3306 2 года назад

Their char siew baos are awesome. From $2.50 to $3 I'll say is still worth it as it is literally freshly made. Mind you some dim sum restaurants' baos are from their central kitchen, more expensive and do not taste as good. I will often go there and eat other food while waiting for our number to be called. We will pack a few boxes back. Keep some to re steam another day. Still taste amazing. I've encountered people ordering like 10 boxes of the baos.

All the dim sum looked HK legit, like what you'd get in a HK teahouse. Can't beat the price. The least successful looking dish is the cheong fun. The rice roll was still on the thick and firm side. Should be thinner, softer and silkier, but I'm sure the taste was very good. Greg, I think your channel is #1. 👍😋

As a cantonese who moved to singapore recent year, I find the rice skin of har gao and cheong fun in most places here too thick and not bouncy. I guess it's harder to find the right type of rice flour (粘米粉) abroad.

@jsp001 2 года назад

Yes Gregory!! I totally agree with you about the disappointment of the East Coast Lagoon Food Village being "walled off". As typical of our clueless authorities... Want to make Singapore a "fun" and "exciting/interesting" , and even "funky" city, but they put clueless AND lazy decision-making wet blankets to implement thoughtless actions like this...

@GregoryLeow 2 года назад

I try and try to look at it from the authorities pov and I still can’t see a sensible reasoning 🤷‍♂️

@milkbunnies 2 года назад

@Gregory Leow (Greg's Big Eats) It's a safety issue. Before it was fenced the number of accident or near accidents that happened with blur pedestrians walking in the front of rollerbladers and large amount of (untrained) cyclists was a nightmare. Unsupervised children would dash out from the hawker centre into the oncoming path of people frequently. Now people are funnelled at least in clear crossing channels.

@GregoryLeow 2 года назад

oh, I see. is that the reasoning the NEA gave for the barriers?

@milkbunnies 2 года назад

@@GregoryLeow not the official reason but as someone who uses that path frequently multiple times a week at all hours it there is a noticeable drop in near accidents. It makes sense if you see it from a traffic flow management perspective.

@toyshanger8945 2 года назад

The disadvantage from a restaurant dim sum is restaurant dim sum comes to your table ready with choices of food. The compromise is the price and waiting time in comparison. The restaurants tend to have a bigger variety but if these are the few popular items you like is probably worth it. Greg I know your logs has been mostly hawker eatery but I am actually also opened to Japanese, Taiwanese or any food even fast food. It might be something you not used to but I be also interested if you do videos on any good eats.

This stall deserves much respect for the electronic queue. Many selfish bast@rds rather make people stand in queue. I make it a point not to patronise them. So what the food are good, just another meal of thousands to have. Like that outram char kway teow, stupid to wait that long, taste is hype and really small expensive portions. Tried the curry puffs from the feuding brothers, not that great but expensive.
