Hey guys Welcome to Episode 2 of our Singapore trip
For all the foodie lovers out there including me
This episode is the one for you
One of the best things about traveling is getting to try the local cuisine
And Singapore is home to unexpected pairings
Also a transformed dining experience
So first stop we are currently now at Amoy Street Food Center
Where we're going to try the Crispy Curry Cloth
It's Michelin
We all have an idea when it's Michelin
He's expensive dear
But here in Singapore we can find Michelin but affordable
So let's give it a try Let's go
We just got here the smell is already here the aroma is already here
Diba not yet 12 we smell food
But it's okay because today is all about food
And we're just going to eat eat eat all day
We're here guys
Okay and we're here
Crispy Curry Puff
But it's not just curry they have
We have many varieties
They have Crispy Black Pepper Chicken Puff
Crispy Yam Paste Puff
Sardine Puff and Curry
Potato Chicken Puff So
Singapore's best food Ooh
it's definitely top-rated
And it's not expensive
Hello hi
That's him they're making it right now currently
I think we should have an order for each and then we can try them out Have
I ever tried Crispy Curry Puff
But we got one of everything
We reviewed all kinds of them each one
This is the Crispy Curry Puff
Then there's the Black Pepper Chicken Puff next to it
Then this is the Sardine Puff
I'm going to ask my team's help so we can all try them together
Oh wow gotta open
That's him inside oh
This is the Black Pepper Chicken
It has onion
It's not at all what I expected but let's give it a try
Wow spicy
Oh very spicy indeed
So this
O M
Curry Chicken
I think their bestseller is yan yung How
is it
Curry
NASA puff language The
sardine
Sardine very tasty
Everything was just placed into a puff
It's like an empanada style
Do you eat empanadas
I've tried
I'm not the biggest fan
It's not something I look for
But if it's there and they say it's good I'll give it a try
These kinds of things when inside
as a Filipino
I prefer it with rice
Rather than wrapped in a puff
It is actually really good
I suggest if you're going to eat it
This packaging is good
But for the price
it's overpriced
Php 100
Oh he's just fine
You're already getting tired since you're only halfway there
It's pretty full
It's pretty full already
No that's right
He's filling it
I like pepper but
Yeah I love pepper too
But yeah maybe a bit
It's pretty strong
Yeah
But honestly I like it
Unexpectedly she
How are you
Be honest
Hungry
Yes there's chili
Yes there's chili yeah
We did that
He's delicious
It's just like
you you can'
t handle spicy I love spicy
We didn't say it directly to you we really love pepper
But it really gives a different kick
Like you're awake
It's different you know
He really got scared
But he's unique right
And it was styled this way
DeliciousIt 's delicious
Anyway guys since everyone was able to try this and review it that'
s not even the end of it
We still have so much more food to try
And I feel like we're just going to be surprised each time
because again
Singapore is known
for its unexpected
pairings Let's go Let's
give it a try Flash out
I have never tried boiling tea
HiSo this is Ali
He is actually the owner of Tarik
Alright okay
So what are we trying now
You guys are trying the teh tarik ice
Okay
So basically it's
just tea with milk Tea with milk
And this is our most popular ice drinks
Especially because it's been really hot
So when did you start operating
About a year
Almost a year
Almost a year
I used to travel a lot
I'm a flight attendant
So I travel quite a lot
So I saw a lot of this concept in Italy
They have the all-in-the-wall concep
where they have their cappuccino and biscotti
They'll just serve it like this
Exactly like what we are doing right now
So when I saw the shop I
said Hey come on
We can bring Milan a bit to Singapore
A little bit closer to everyone
Okay so great
Good thing there's tarik
And we'll give it a try and let you know
Again it's ice
It's perfect for the hot weather
Oh gosh that's so
good It's smooth The
milk isn't too sweet
It feels creamy
That's really great
Thank you so much Oh
my goodness I'm going to make them try
So they understand what I'm saying
It's really good guys It's
refreshing His tea
isn't overpowering
We've tried so many great drinks
Who wants to give it a try
This is called the tarik
Yeah
So basically
if your dominant hand is on your right
I'll take the small one
So this will be just
the part where we
hold So you just do it like that Whoa
You can go as high as you
want Whoa
You're doing it so perfectly
Want to try
That's so cool
Wait you have to teach me how to do
that Yeah
Of course
Wonder Woman apron Sure
Just so I get the movement
Yes right Just hold it like that Whoa
It already smells so good
Not bad not bad
He's bragging in Hindi guys
The tea
To get a nice bubble
Yeah because milk when you hold it
you will have a really nice bubble
It looks really good
PresentationYeah yeah
Like this one
Ali just explained to me
that the reason they have to pull it up
It's because the milk when
it settles down after you
pull it up creates a really
nice bubble Guys it's so good
I highly recommend
coming Guys it's really
good This is why people come here I'm sure
Here we are
We are now entering Taylor Adam

Okay well I'm ready for what's next
So the next drink we're having has raspberry lime juice and basil
It's more like sweet and sour
Sweet and sour

My goodness it looks so good
Inspired by Brazilian farmers
Something reminds me of
Brazil Oh my god you're right
It's sweet and sour It's
like the best of both worlds
And I love raspberries so much
It's really good
This is really something I would have by the beach
Let's try eating a raspberry
I'm excited
The next one I'm going to serve you is a Cuban drink
It's an elevator version of
Mojito Okay Refreshing
Okay refreshing minty and sour
Is the base
rum Yep it's a rum base
Havana Club
That's what we're talking about
I have never had drinks at a
tailor shop In fact here in Taylor
This is the Cuban drink Everything
is so good Honestly if you'
re a cocktail lover you're just
living your best life right now
And I'm living my best life right now
Everything we're having right now is Taylor Adams' bestsellers
So this Cuban drink is for everyone who
prefers something refreshing light and minty
And this is for everyone who's a bit sour and sweet
Is there any way we could drink it at the same time
I'm really into cocktails that I could
have more than one kind of cocktail in a nig
Because I do like to see which one I would like best
Their Instagram page is tayloradam sg
So for anyone planning to visit Singapore this is a
place you should visit because
the cocktails are amazing
And at least you guys have an idea of which ones to order
These are their bestsellers
They also have food
This is their beef sliders Of
course there's so much more on
the menu but I went with the beef sliders and truffle fries
This is the sauce for that
And on the side I can actually customize the drink for me
So bespoke
For example I walk in
I tell the bartender what I want
or what I'm looking for in a drink
You can actually ask for that
And then they can mix that up for you
What kind of base do I want
Actually I think I'll go with gin for now
That's how you do
it guys What
are we going to call this drink The ju drink
Because bringing good ju everywhere Good ju means good
luck by the way Okay I'm gonna
try the truffle fries now
Guys promise I'm not
going to finish so you can try
I love the truffle topping
And I love how the sauce has chili in it
It's a bit spicy
This is the drink that's perfect for me
and this is officially called the ju drink
That's magic
That's everything I like and love
Oh my God
This is so good
Only in Singapore
Only in Taylor Adam guys
This is really good Thank
you It is
refreshing It is
light The sweetness is perfectly
balanced
Okay you guys
If you come by Taylor
Adam and ask for the ju
drink please tag me so we know if you like it
But I'm sure you guys will
like it because I'm enjoying
it so much I love that it's customized to my liking
To who I really am
And you asked me three questions
and you just got it
Only here
Cheers guys
Get the ju drink
It's not our last day
but it feels like the best time
to celebrate All right cheers
Cheers guys
Thanks for having us
Cheers
Party party Woo
Cheers guys
Do we still have a next activity
I'm just kidding
Okay guys
That was such a fun experience
The drinks are so good
They made a special ju drink for us
but we still have another activity
to go to and experience
Let's go and I'll see you all in a bit
We are finally here at Mr Holmes Bakehouse
and I have never tried a croffin before
It's a mix between a croissant and a muffin
And I'm going to try it here in Singapore
If you want to try one come here
Mr Bakehouse let's go
Cover your face
And we'll order a croffin
But there are still so many delicious things here
This one This
I think I want to try this though
So we would like to order two croffins
And then I want to try your donuts the plain one
Hey guys I just served up some drinks This one is
their hibiscus and then this one
is the mango with lemon
I want to try both of
them so I'll let you
guys know So this one is the hibiscus one
Okay that's good
Okay they're both good
But in general they're delicious
And maybe they drink it this way
But since I'm Filipino and I like everything sweeter
Let's try them with extra sweetener
Okay so this one is hibiscus with white sugar
Ayan it's much better
Then I got another one for our iced tea with lemon
I think they surprised us
Much much sweeter
Actually you know what I'm enjoying this one so much
because it's so refreshing
If I could choose both
I'll go with the iced
tea with lemon Okay
you guys So our croffin
This is the hybrid of a croissant and a muffin So
we're going to give it a try
So never have I ever tried a croffin
But I feel like the magic begins here
So we're gonna get a piece of that
We caught him
It's very good
If I could explain what my favorite taste is
I would say it's the croissant
The Yung flavor of this hybrid between a croissant and a muffin is Thai milk tea
But I could taste more the croissant
We'll go ahead with the donut
Ito may strawberry topping siya eh with sprinkle
I love anything that's sugar-coated
So I think this will work
Onto the donut Oh
my God
If you ask me guys I'll still
go with the sugar-coated donut
I just let him have the strawberry topping they put on it
I think there's cream cheese on top of this
Which is also really good
So I'm going to get one
already Let's try it with cream cheese
But honestly guys we'
ll get the sugar-coated
donut Tapos we'll take the strawberry icing
Which they call confetti
It's my favorite one
His experience is like strawberry icing on a sugar-coated donut
That's actually how it tastes
Another order is coming up
It's savory too
It's also a croffin but a different flavor
Thank you so much
Okay can you please explain what this is
Inside there's sour cream cream cheese and chives
Sour cream cream cheese and chives
And then this one is
Sun-dried tomato and bacon jammies
Okay well we'll give this a try
Thank you
So may cream cheese too
Okay let's try
The thing is it's
confusing the cream cheese
is delicious But because it has toppings
I'm not sure which one is more overpowering
The cream cheese or the toppings
It's really good actually
You know this donut is really growing on me
After a while it all blends together so perfectly
So I feel like it's something I would have for brunch with a nice latte
This one is bacon with jam
Obviously croissant
Wow
We'll try this part
Looks like it's the best part
Let's try it
Oh my god this is amazing
Oh my god it's exploding in my mouth Never have I
ever been so confused Wow
this one's so perfectly made
So crispy on the outside
plus some bacon some jam
Okay so I'm the kind of person who doesn't like a lot of things happening
But for the first time in my
25 years look at that
Okay so we've tried all of it
What I really loved was this one
Bacon jam and dried tomatoes
I will choose this because I'm not a breakfast person I'm a
brunch person And I feel like
this is the perfect take on it
Although this one's really good
It's really covered in sugar
And then for the donut
I think it'll depend on how you're feeling in the end
Overall I would go with this one
Bacon jam sun-dried tomatoes
And I think I'll still go with the cream cheese one
I'll go with this plate
So for those visiting Singapore
and you don't know which places to visit
I highly recommend Mr Home's Bakehouse It's not hard
to find and
there are so many choices to pick Must try
I could be raw I
could be tall I'll
make you feel really uncomfortable
Never have I ever made a donut from scratch Woo
Everything looks so good
This is Chef Jen
She's the one from Pastel Chef
Oh no
Okay okay
Whoa check out this Basque burnt cheese
Okay Yeah
So basically
this area is our
display We have about
12 flavors today
So it's like an Italian name for a stuffed donut
YeahAnd then sour bomb means sourdough Yes
Do you like sourdough
Yes I love sourdough
Thanks for coming here
Oh thanks for having us
We're excited to try
I hope you'll have fun in the process as well
Are you more of a fruity person or do you like deeper flavors
No I like everything that's really sweet
Really sweet Yeah
This is my personal favorite
Okay this is her personal favorite
It's their strawberry milk
Okay okay
It's actually refreshing
Yeah
You think it'll be
too sweet right What's inside is
fresh strawberries
Strawberry jam
So it's like a very very light fruity texture
It is
I don't know
It's exactly what you want
from a donut Wow The bread
is really soft And I love
that it's sugar-coated
But it's not too much
It's not overwhelming
I think we always try to balance it
Because you know a classic donut always has sugar on the outside
Right yeah
We want flavors inside to balance the sugar
Right yeah
You get that crunch from the coating Yeah
You get a sour sweet flavor
Who wants to try the strawberry
Who wants to take the strawberry
from Tom Since you're wearing
pink now You guys it's really amazing how young we are now
Because we really meet a lot
of people who
are my age That are really opening up successful businesses At a young age
Yeah and everyone is extra hardworking these days
Yeah same here
Hardworking women you know
Everyone here is a hardworking woman
So we're going to try the customer favorite
So this one that's why I say it's bitter because it's savory and sweet
The inside has something like blue cheese
Blue cheese So it's a bit funky
So there's blue
cheese inside There is blue cheese inside
Let's see I think
I like it yeah
Do you get it
It's a really good funky
And then it grows inside you
How do you know it's going to happen when you were making this
I eat a lot
I tried it in a restaurant
And they had blue cheese in their Basman cheesecake
Yeah
And it just gave this really funky fun flavor
And I was like ooh I want to recreate that in a donut
Yeah yeah
This one took us like I think months
Like a month I think Months
We keep trying again and again
Balancing the flavor Yeah And it's so funny There' s
only one brand of blue
cheese that actually works
Can I just
say something
It just works
Like it just-
It's so hard to explain
I have customers who eat to this point
They have their own blowtorch
And they torch it
more Yeah
Because they love the burnt flavor
And because it works so well with the blue cheese honestly
When you take your first bite
it's funky And then after a
while everything just blends together
And it makes sense Yep
I love
it I love
her explanation I love my explanation
It just makes sense
You can't explain it
But it just makes sense I think that's true for all foods right
I think people just make it so complicated
Right yeah
At the end of the day is it delicious
That is my question
YeahYeah you can do all kinds of things
Is it working
That's the question
It's so delicious
Oh my gosh
That's how I understand why my friend was jumping around so much
So our donut workshop begins
now Jen is going to teach us how
to make her best-selling items And first will be the pancake
This is like a donut that's already fried proofed and sugared
It really is like a circle
If you're not sure just hold the donut like that
Hold this
Oh my goodness
yes Okay
So it's not heavy
Yeah but you'll notice the difference
You can tell yeah
Okay okay
So we're going to feel the weight
Yeah I can feel it
You can really feel it guys
So for me because the donut is gaining weight
Then we're going to make the topping
We're here
Like that Yeah Not
bad This
one's cuter
I mean
it's cute though
Have you used this before
No I haven't
Okay so this is the
knot Yeah
So you just
have to press to the left Can you
hear the sound Yeah Okay
So the degree of burntness is a matter of personal preference
I like
mine burnt Burnt
Burnt baby Burnt
Hey guys First time
using this I'll try my
best It depends on how
burnt you want it to be
Hey if I really burn
it then I can
go further
Yeah
So the other side is a bit
Sunog But
the rest is
Oo You
can finish the rest
Okay Yeah you're doing well
Looks good
We like it a bit more charred
Okay
For those who don't like it quite so charred
More
It's too much
It's really burnt
If you like burnt things
Okay so this is just some strawberries
Okay
That's like just macerated with a little sugar
And then it's like fresh strawberries
And we just put in like a teaspoon
So they don't get a bit messy
Yeah
But messy is good
Hey guys
So the first step is to give her strawberries
So this is actually more steps
But that's her personal
favorite And then we're just going to do a pinch
A pinch
Okay and then the strawberry jam
And then we're just going to sprinkle some raspberries
It's really sour
Okay
Okay okay Fantastic Hmm
give it a
nine A nine It's
okay Imperfection
is good
Okay latte
Sorry what's your name Haley
Haley okay You want to
do this
Okay
I'll try to drizzle it
So ito we're just going to drizzle the strawberry syrup
There it is
That's nice And
then we're going to make
the matcha How much Like just one Just
one teaspoon
Three grams
Okay perfect
Okay and then we'll get hot water Okay
Okay that's enough
30 grams
So 34 grams when you add the hot water and then we can whisk
Okay we'll blend it now to make it smoother and creamier right
Creamy
Can I try getting some ice I love ice so much
So I'm just going to put a little bit more because ice is life
Okay
Sorry
Oat milk
Yeah usually you put it
at the bottom Okay
Then you can go through it
Okay guys let's go
Strawberry matcha latte
Then it does look pretty
Oh I like that because I love strawberries
That's really good
I really like this
I can give up coffee for good if this is going to be my drink every day
Thanks for joining us
I hope you had a really nice time you know Yeah
Eating donuts making donuts and making some drinks
Matcha latte
Yeah I think what we try to do here is to be funky a bit more like different from a lot of
e other donut shops that you see Yeah
Where can we find you on social media
So on social media we're called
Sour Bomb Bakery Yeah
We have a store here selling our donuts
Yeah
And we'll have one at Jewel which is near the airport

What a fantastic morning We
had sugar and a matcha latte
I feel really energized which makes me ready for the next activity
See you there
Hey guys so we're here now at Two Chefs Eating Place
This is also our last food spot and the unexpected pairings
For example this right now it's pork ribs
But the toppings are powdered milk
I really don't know what to expect from it but I'm very curious So
we're going to give it a try
Never have I ever tried pork ribs with
milk powder It's all big but anyway
Let's try it with rice
It's good I like
it I wonder how they even came up with
this dish that they made a
pork rib with milk powder on top
It's really good especially with rice
It's really good
This is tofu with garlic crisps
Let's try this marmite chicken now
It looks savory
It smells like garlic
It's like sweet chicken
It's very savory
It's really good
The chicken is tender
With the garlic crisps it's even better
So we're trying out ingredients that you wouldn't expect to mix
But this is going so well
Okay guys So we're going to try tofu with minced
beef I don't like tofu but I'll give it a try
I can see why people would like it
But if I had a choice I'd stick with these two
Maybe somebody can try this out for us
This looks like fried chicken but it's actually shrimp
So we'll have the team try
it out I'm so happy about this
Yeah
It's not a hassle to eat because there are no bones
Yeah
But you know what This reminds me of
I don't know if that's what you guys did when you were kids
You put Milo in the rice
No
I think you've tried that
I've tried that
He doesn't think yeah
There are people who get it
right Because
I love you
Hey that's great girl
This is very unfair comparing the two How do you eat this
Hindi the term they use
for their cooking style is Sisha
Like kinigisa muna nila
tapos So parang twice
Kunyari pan-fried pork then cooked again to add sauce
It's very Filipino too
Like the adobo we have
They have it like that some are beaten
Like all those guys tough guys all the
same Then there are the others they're all scared
Braised pork in soy sauce pork with broth
That's all for our food episode
