I have to say about Malaysian and Singaporean food because I went there and experienced myself recently and my honest opinion is their food in general are overrated. Just like any traveler, I was excited about Southeast Asian food until the real moment. Actually, everything I ordered there are either very sweet and quite sweet. Think about like noodle broth or spicy salty sauce have overwhelming sugary taste. It seemed like entire country was addicted to sugar and they don't even aware of it. I tried hawker after hawker and both upscale and street food. I gave up after days of trying and I ended up buying just spongy bread and bananas for my meal and I was thirsty, hungry and pissed. Another thing that no Youtube foodies mentioned about these food are their serving size and lack of vegetable in their dishes. I have to order more than one plate from multiple food stall just to fill up my stomach to get the fuel on sweaty humid day so spending money on daily meal at least twice daily was not cheap either. Another thing is lack of vegetable portion on their dishes. A lot of their dishes are deep fried I only got several bits of green in my plate. It's less degree in Singapore than in Malaysia overall but I was really disappointed.

Hey Mark My top three hawker centres to visit in Singapore are: 1. Old Airport Road Food Centre 2. Alexandra Food Centre 3. Whampoa Food Centre. These are obviously places that are slightly out of the way, but trust me, they are worth the trip. These hawker centres house many famous stalls, and many stalls from around Singapore usually cluster around a few good ones. If you ask me (I'm from Singapore, don't bother with Newton Hawker Centre. The food is overpriced and everything is cooked really badly. I kinda like Maxwell Food Centre, but it's also getting very touristy. If you want to go to a hawker in town, I suggest you hit the hawker at People's Park Complex or Amoy Street hawker centre. Actually, there are many, many great hawker centres. It'll take months to discover all of them. It's truly a Singaporean institution. One can move from one hawker to another and never be able to finish all the food.

Oh Mark, that is the best place to eat and sample delicious Halal dishes and goat meat with fragrant rice, I used to grew up in Singapore. it was wonderful there. I am so glad you enjoyed it. Be sure to greet the Muslim vendors Assalam Aleikum (May Peace be upon you) and Terimah Kasi (Thank you in Malay. Also visit the FREE botanical gardens, it is so beautiful you will enjoy picnic with your family, as well as plenty of photo taking, or simply enjoy the stunning orchids and their gorgeous smell Cheers

Hi all and lets talk
In my opinion. Briyani rice. i came to know there 2 types, one the the longer ones and the other shorter ones. I ate briyani rice so many times for some 30 years in my country. But once ate briyani rice. the shorter ones from Bangladesh. i will never eat again those longer ones.

Whilst in Singapore we went to the Tekka Centre and ate from that stall based on this review, it was fantastic, I'm sure my chicken was within the rice though and not separate as in this video and mentioned in the comments. The roti from another stall was amazing.
