Hi Buddymoon you CANNOT go into a store because the law is very strict on handling of food. All hawkers must attend a food handling hygiene course and all hawkers must attend this course. And anyone without a food hygiene certificate cannot enter the premises of a store because of hygiene. It is to protect the food from being contaminated e.g. someone might sneeze into the food without a mask. And she is right to say that you always ask for permission. Something like someone going into your house without permission is definitely unacceptable.
Yea, SG law for food handling is very strict, that's why you can't just go into any food stall even if the hawker is willing to allow it. As for the dessert, it'll taste much better if you mix the ice shavings up together with all the syrup so you get a kind of multi-coloured half-liquid half-snowy mixture.
I understand what you mean dear...but if the law is so strict, then I guess it should be mandatory that a simple instruction in the form of a sign board should be positioned at the OPEN ENTRANCE to the shop. There are a lot of tourists that may end up in this situation and will not want to go through this type of embarrassment....it is just a piece of advice. I'm sure you understand.
@@logangovender8055 I believe it's a common sense to practice some courtesy before video recording others in their area beforehand? They never did, even if there are no food handling law in place, they are still wrong.
The stall lady was very kind and was smiling when reminding you to ask for permission. Think that is basic courtesy in many countries and not all places are allowed to enter also. Always be respectful when travelling.
Most shops will not let you in the stalls as they are small and also for hygiene reasons. Try sugar cane with lemon for some acidity and different experience.
i think there are some regulations in place at food stalls and outsiders are not supposed to just enter it as part of food safety. Hence dessert stall stopped you from entering.
@@thebuddymoon yes me too, im local but i don't even know there is a sugar cane vending machine . what a surprised. lol. i love your video.. thanks for sharing and enjoy your trip in Singapore.
I really enjoyed our short visit to Singapore, but I agree, most of the prices were crazy! You can find excellent food in the Chinese section by eating at the run down looking group of restaurants, can't remember what that was called, but that food was surreal.
During your travels in India, did you not get a chance to have Sugarcane Juice? It is an extremely popular drink and is practically found in all states of India, like Mumbai, Goa, Kerala, etc. In India, they normally squeeze half a lemon and add rock salt to the juice. Tastes divine, though it "can" be an acquired taste depending on which part of the world you are from.
these guys are novice travelers , they were just not prepared for india. I saw their india blogs , my palm was like stuck to my head wtf are they doing
You guys definitely did your research hehe! Hawker stores are more affordable and since you're near the central, they are still pricier as compared to other town areas though I wouldn't say there's much different. You should also keep a lookout for Kopitiams (Kop-pe-tiamp!) because there are some hawker stores inside :) Both of you seem to have a more refined palette and taste so perhaps you can try the Nyonya's selection such as the "Kueh Lapis" (Kuey as in UruGUAY) or "Pulut Tai-tai" which isn't extremely sweet as compared to the Ice Kacang and Sugar Cane. Strongly recommend you to visit Katong at night because there are so many food there (Banana Cake, Bak Kut Teh - Peppery Claypot Pork Ribs Soup, Chicken Rice, toasts, coffees, kuehs and more)! Also for a night stroll, you can also walk along East Coast Park which is not super far from Katong. Oh oh, and about taking videos during food preparation, sorry that you had to experience a bit of a mishap there :) It is true, the premise belong to the stall owner and some of which may contain "secret recipe" and stuff like that, also partly due to hygiene issues, non-personnel shouldn't be allowed in unless the stall owners are okay with it.
❤ Try to visit Assam and Eastern India, the meeting point of the culture of South East Asia and mainland India. Our climate is not hot, places are cleaner and food is not spi, y unlike mainland India. You both can stay at my apartment.
0:56 "I feel like I've been sucked/transported into.... " Your SIGNATURE PHRASE 😂. True buddymoon follwers would know this 😅😂 Keep entertaining us guys. 🎉❤
Ice Kecang - In India, its called 'Gola' which is crushed ice with all the flavored sugary syrups but without beans/corns. Next time you must taste it when in India. you will love it. just for reference have a look - ru-vid.comcCaIAydgXr4 secondly, the sugarcane juice is also super demanding in summers in India, you get some of the best.
Ermmm….if without signature ingredients like the beans and the corns, then you couldn’t say that Ice kachang is called Gola. It’s like saying the door is called the window in India just that it is not transparent….and many analogies or examples to prove the point. Shaved ice desserts are aplenty in many parts of the world in the tropics especially. You can say that they are similar and in fact some are really just the same thing in a different names but not the one you described. To say X is called Y in India when they have different ingredient compositions is just laughable and to which some will even feel as a form of cultural appropriation.
Chinatown has some cool wall paintings too which you have missed 😅 Yes i agree, you should ask permission before you enter the food prep area. Some hawkers will be glad to let you film if you ask permission to. 😊 Ice kacang should be eaten mixed up with all the ingredients at the base. Erm there should be a straw dispenser somewhere on that machine.
Hi I'm from Texas and just started watching your channel you both are the best my dream is to visit South Africa and visit Kruger National Park with my with you both are the happiest and most loving genuine couple I have ever seen on RU-vid. Keep up the good work and stay Safe.
Yes thanks for your education video shooting 👍 today because we are here from Malaysian country was contact with this education today yes amen halleluyah praise the lord 🙏 my poster halleluyah amen amen southerantes southerantes southerantes
Dear Leanne & Dan, started following your channel just few weeks back. You guys are fantastic and so are your videos. I am an Indian but currently posted in Indian Embassy, Kathmandu, Nepal. Tried to find out whether u guys have been to Nepal or not but couldn't establish. If u guys have not visited Nepal then plan for it. Its a beautiful country with lots of fantastic locations in the Himalayas. I am sure u will like visiting Nepal. Please let me inform when u are in Kathmandu. Regards
I hope you should have tried having Sugarcane Juice during your trip of India. In India almost all the cities have the small shops selling it....again super cheap just 20 cents
Why You didn't tried Sugarcane Juice in India. Specially in Village area You would have got the best quality. We Indians have a separate sugarcane juice centers all over streets. You also try raw coconut water.
How is the auntie being rude? She was even smiling when taking order and when bringing out the order. I guess she was just surprised someone was behind her with a camera when she turned around.
Hey im Murtaza from pakistan i love to see u daily i missed u a lot both im so unlucky i cant meet in pakistan when u visit a few month ago i wana share my hand made lassi hahahha
😂😂😂Dan I see what you did...u know lot women love cloth shopping and immediately u got to cloth section u really walked fast not give Leanne time to think😂😂😂😂smart move
Nah, no need to sugarcoat it. Both parties were being rude. The stallowner for reacting hostile and the youtubers for not having the courtesy to ask before stepping into the stall and filming. Lesson learnt for all I guess!
@markrober3542 I mean common sense isn't that common I guess...its like duh, then they wanna sit there and say oops, I'm sorry, sorry...um think McFly. Lol
