    We can only think of one song when it comes to cai fan 🤪

    Never knew there're so many descriptive phrases for cai fan:
    "Fake egg", "fake chawanmushi", "swimming in gravy", "deconstructed sushi", "liao to rice proportion", "eggplant action" 😂

    It seems liked steamed egg is a national dish in Singapore.
    (I love steamed egg too :P)

    Was in Singapore for two months and cai fan is like my go to when I don’t know what to eat, so delicious and so cheap! My fav combo is sweet fried chicken wing, curry cabbage, and minced meat tofu!

    Curry gravy is the best sauce for cai png! Must drench the rice fully in the curry zhup 😋

    Everyone says chicken rice, bak ku teh, chilli crab is our national dish. But Cai Fan is SG national dish. It's really unique to us and every Cai fan stall will have curry chicken, sweet sour pork, curry veg, cabbage, long beans, steam egg....

  • @lecherhao86
    @lecherhao86 Před 2 lety +19

    I am the type of person who rather spend 10-15 mins to walk out to get a caifan than to order food delivery.
    So lucky we have caifan here in Singapore. It's just the food I go for when I am absolutely tired from work and don't want to think what to eat.
    And who says Singapore is expensive? $4-6 for a caifan compared to $10 and beyond for a really average restaurant food elsewhere in a mall.
    By the way, how come no one gets salted egg fish/chicken? I will go for 1 veg, 1 tofu/ egg, 1 meat.

      When I see what lots of Singaporean (esp. younger people) show what they eat. They first eat out way more and do not like ordering/eating veggies or just stewed (no fresh vitamins etc.) the whole day and most days of every week. Lots of carbs and protein plus sweet drinks/fruit. 😳

    • @yongquanwu3921
      @yongquanwu3921 Před 2 lety +3

    I like 2 meat and 1 veg.
    But I rarely eat caifan bc I think it’s Jack of all trades but master of none, I mean you never heard of a hawker stall famous for cai fan, it’s always the stall that only sell 1 dish and perfects it.

    50 singaporeans majority of them interviewed were Chinese , handful of malays and so where are the Indian customers? Don’t Singaporean Indian customers eat Caifan? It’s baffling Singapore is a multicultural multi racial country but not a single representation from the Indian community ?
