I tried Singapore foods for almost 2 weeks, and i couldnt find any to my liking. Maybe i used to malaysia's recipe. But I found out their food to be kinda tasteless, and worst...weird. shocking.gif Especially their bak kut teh doh.gif . So, what you all think about SG's food? Personally, i still prefer malaysia;s one.

Yes, most of SG food is tasteless, coz their gov is concern on for their ppl health, less sugar less salt.
But i ate b4 1 of their nasi brayni not bad, although is $6 but it can feed up to 2 ppl meal.

their laksa is good. chilli crab too. btw, i prefer to have the natural taste of ingredients instead of alot of salt sugar flavorings that harm health n tastebuds.

Within M'sia, sometimes Northern ppl also not used to Southern food la..

Anyway, my comments on S'pore (hawker) food:
Katong Laksa, the original one memang no chopstick wan. Use the soup spoon, eat the thick beehoon and soup together- slurpppp..

Singapore BKT, Teochew's peppery, plain looking soup version. Yucks, the soup is prepared with lots of pepper and garlic nia. Sometimes, can find the dark color herbal version, of course taste not as nice wan la..

Singapore CKT - another yucks.. It's black, sweet, wet, and fried with yellow noodle (by default). Last time, when I missed Penang CKT when in S'pore, I asked for CKT - koay teow only, no black sauce, lots of chiili.

Singapore Prawn Noodle - yellow noodle by default, must specify if want yellow noodle with beehun. Soup is pork bones based.

Wanton mee - dried version comes with wet chili. If want something closer to home, ask for don't want chili, don't want ketchup, BUT black soya sauce with pickled green chili. The Cantonese Ah Pek at People Park Centre knows.

My "safe" food in S'pore - chicken rice, duck rice, mee siam, mee soto, "lor mee", laksa, fish beehun soup, "ban mian" or "mee hun koay". Occasionally their Bak-Chor-Mee-Pok-Ta - took sometimes to get used to.

Oh, for those who ask for dried noodle without chili, ketchup is added (almost by default too if you don't specify)

When in S'pore, best to avoid the so-called "Penang laksa", "Penang CKT", "Penang xxx", taste not the same, ingredients also salah. Penang CM should go and sue them for using the word "Penang"..

Now me hungry liao la...

I could say the same about the food in Malaysia that begins with "Singapore" too.

Maybe you went to the wrong food court for the makan places in Singapore.
Jalan Kayu = Roti Prata?
Geylang Market = malay food?
