You have found your niche..this type of in depth local food reviews are a joy to watch and nobody else is doing this type of content. Stick with local hawker foods...endless supply of contents for many more series to come. Now that we are done with Hokkien mee...what's next? Char Kway teow?
Fried rice
Char kueh teow
Nasi lemak
Prata
Laksa
Mee goreng mamak
Fish sliced soup. The flavor is very subtle and I am sure he can describe it
Alderic, I think you should do Ba Chor mee. I personally feel it is an underrated singaporean food.
he did before already can go take a look !
The amount of effort and production quality of the past few series has been unparalleled! Kudos to Alderic for yet another amazing series. Waiting eagerly for the next one. Cheers
thank you! I'm glad you enjoy the videos (:
Great series! Your reviews are great because you bring the fresh perspective of a chef that we don’t get with other food vloggers! Looking forward to more like chicken rice etc
This is best video on hokkien mee. You nailed it. The best form of hokkien mee comes indeed from the packaged version, the one that you dabao home!
The end of another great series, thanks for your hard work in entertaining and informing us as to what you deemed as the best Hokkien Mee in Singapore Alderic!
thank you for watching!
I look forward to this weekly videos as much as Game of Thrones 10 years ago. Great job man, hoping you'd keep it to local food instead of Western ones.
as a GoT fan, this is such high praise. I'm really flattered, thank you!
oh my, that google spreadsheet is just perfect. what a cheat sheet, exactly what i needed for my friends and I.
My goodness. This Alderic fellow keeps getting better and better.
thank you!
Gd reviews bro! I had tried many hokkien mee stalls in my 48 years of life and none bears swee guan cos of the creaminess and rich flavour of the noodles as well as the very robust chilli sauce. Cant wait for ur next food episodes! Keep it up!
Had fun and really enjoyed watching the Hokkien mee series ! Really looking forward to the next series ! :P
Looking forward to what next. Another in the bank boys.
great series Alderic! keep it up!
Your channel need more viewers. It is so underrated.
Solid content. Can’t recommend it more! My top 3 picks were come daily, swee guan and eng Ho respectively. Close enough to yours!
This is so wrong to watch on a day to go low-catbs on. I am scrolling thru Food Panda to see which ones listed, is open now.
Cannot wait for the next series already! Do fish soup!
Yet another W verdict and W series. Alderic is definitely top tier local content creator
thank you for the kind words my guy.
Aderic, will you do a best roast meat/roast duck place next time?
please do this!!! have crunchiness/juiciness as one of the criteria for roast meat
88 HK ROAST 🎉
Suggestion: Have one map with all the locations. Easier to find which one is nearest to my place 😅
am convinced this is the best if not the only quality SG content creator
you're too kind my guy
Thanks for reviewing hkm
thank you for the dono!
Swee Guan I have been eating since 15yrs ago. simply the bestttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt
That’s why they can charge exorbitant price for the servicing size and people still don’t mind being carrot head because it’s THAT GOOD !!
@@POS36 consistency is what swee guan have. that uncle dont care abt all these videos. all he does is dishing out same standard everyday
@@adriansim1407 it’s the wok hey that I crave tbh
hi alderic love yr content !! would love to see best lor mee next 👍
I knew it. Predicted swee guan from the start of this series !!! Da best for me as well. Looks like our preferences and tastebuds are similar, Alderic
A breathe of fresh air in food review. There is no popular objective reviewer in SG food scene. Happy to watch your videos and knowledge on food!
謝謝！
thank you once again!
Excellent series man. We enjoyed watching all the episodes as much as you enjoyed eating them all haha.
I did. but I'm gonna lay off the hokkien mee a little while for now.
Next Best Char Kway Teow !!!
Video ideas:
Best char kuay teow
Best duck rice
Best prata
Best laksa
Best fish soup bee hoon
Best-something-cheap-cause-alderic-still-broke-from-steaks-geesus-save-him
Great series! I am also a Swee Guan fan.
You should try this
Kim's Famous Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee
wonderful series Alderic.
My favourite... Chuan in Bedok
Interesting take on eating it as takeaway.... just me but I have almost never preferred takeaway compared to on the spot
I think it works differently for different places. like for Swee Guan, I preferred having it there.
i think you’re spot on! swee guan eat there is nicer, and come daily when dabao is better! Generally wet types dabao become even nicer as they have more time to fuse with the stock, hence the use of opeh leaf in the past! swee guan is definitely the top dog at the moment. come daily was prob the best 90’s hkm. i think they used to have a more delicious viscous stock in the old days and when dabao with opeh leaf, they were at the top of their game! thanks alderic for all your hard work and effort! this was definitely a must watch series! :)
thank for supporting the series! I actually tried to talk about opeh leaf in the series but none of the places that I visited offered it. feels weird to do an entire series about hkm without opel leaf.
finally i can stop craving and eating hokkien mee every week
you and me both.
enjoyed watching this series, looking forward to the next one.
also, what pair of iems are you using?
just some basic ones off lazada. I just bought the most sold one, cannot even remember the brand/model.
Oh nooooo how has this dude not tried Xie Kee Hokkien mee at Bukit Timah market and food centre. That Hokkien mee would’ve definitely won the one of one award because it’s the only one that uses flat yellow noodles and i don’t think I have seen any flat yellow noodles in this series yet.
CHAR KWAY TEOWWWW
Love the series! DO BEST RAMEN NEXT! xD
Come Daily!!!!! Yummmm
next up. best chicken rice in Singapore, the nation signature dish.
he done it 3 years ago
I will revisit this when the time is right.
First few minutes lowkey gave me a panic attack thinking my hokkien mee would be downgraded
"Come Daily"... oh man
@3:15 - Liking or disliking bean sprouts and spring onion is a personal preference. Has nothing to do with "world moving on". Personally I prefer my fried noodles with them.
U hv to try to Dabao Nam Sing hokkien mee at OA, best 👍
Must be Dabao, no.1 😊
Nah i don't subscribe to the dabao hokkien mee method. I find the noodles too mushy/overcooked as it continues the cooking process in its enclosed packaging. I just like the way it's served and that seems the most authentic - the way it's intended to be consumed (imo). dont flame me please, i like to eat food when it's freshly cooked and hot, this is just my belief and practice. But kudos to the effort over the past months, people don't get to see the hardships behind-the-scenes (i.e queuing, travelling etc.)
nah you definitely have a point. I think it works different for different places. like for Swee Guan, I liked it better when I was there. but Come Daily and Xiao Di arguably both tasted better when I bought it back.
Where are all the addresses of these stalls?
The best hokkien mee is the one Alderic cooks obviously
coming soon!
Just ate at Swee Guan 😋😋
It's really worth the wait and queue.
And also heard a customer had a small quarrel with the assistant 😅
I think that is a daily occurrence at the stall.
Alderic you should do best carrot cake with both black and white versions :D
Think you mentioned Yong Heng instead of Heng Heng? Noticed it cos I'm a Yong Heng regular :)
yes I did! hahaha
Thanks
Great episodes. Made my day.
thank you for the huge dono! glad that you enjoy the videos (:
Wanton Mee next pls! :D
Thank you sir.
fan of HKM and for all your listed HKM i have eaten non goes close to Swee Guan.
Apparently come daily is in 2nd place and alderic was having a hard time deciding. Might give it a try. But yea swee guan stays as the best HKM for me now.
Wait till you guys try the Hokkien mee at tembeling road
hoping for bcm as the next or future series!
Broooooooo you got article from mothership now! congratulations!
thank you!
Best chicken rice pls!!
Awesome wrap up! Really enjoyed your journey and I’ll be sure to try those I haven’t tried before. I just want to know; do any of the top 3 and the individual awards ones don’t contain pork belly bits?
thank you! they all do unfortunately. there was one halal version at Bedok corner that was highly recommended but I didn't manage to fit it within this series.
@@Alderic. Oh great! I was hoping they do! IMO, those without lacks a certain fragrance and taste that is classically HKM. So I would skip that Bedok one haha
Best wonton noodle place, include comparisons between restaurants and hawker
Do a best roti prata series next
hi Alderic ! as a Professional food person , do u think that those so called Michelin Inspectors dare to take the challenge of rating fried hokkien mee by being blindflooded without telling them the location ?
never. because they have to remain anonymous. which I think is a double-edged sword. they can say whatever they want without justification or accountability.
Omg swee guan won!
nice editing :)
I believe the adjective is cloying, not cloy 😊
Thank you for taking feedback and addressing your audience in a gender neutral tone. I felt seen lol!
Also, can you do best prata in SG next?
Would u consider doing a CKT series
Alderic, please do the best roti prata in singapore.
Hi Alderic, good reviews! I realised some stalls never make it to your whole list, like Kim or KPO etc... how do you shortlist these for tasting? 😂
thank you! it's a combination of my own research, google ratings and comments/recommendations. quite unfortunate that I didn't manage to fit Kim into this series but I was getting quite sick of hokkien mee towards the end and that wouldn't be fair.
Why didnt you review Zion Road Hokkein mee?
continue with the prawn and do prawn noodle lah
Yo sir what's the song at 6:40 onwards?
Disco Night by Tofu.
waiting for the next series announcement
Alderic!! Swee Guan's Hokkien Mee standard like different?? I see that your tabao one has thick beehoon but the "having here" one has no beehoon?? (or at least none I can see...) why the difference?
it might be my camera color issue. I think they serve yellow noodles with thin beehoon, the bean sprouts resembles the thick beehoon. not 100% sure though.
Hong Heng is legit
BAK CHOR MEE PLSSSSS
Algooooooo
LOVE YOUR VIDS abang alderic. What's next?? The BEST fried rice in SG? The BEST Beef Noodles in SG?? What?! POssibilities are endless jeez
thank you! haha we'll find out soon enough!
Perhaps adding a fourth tier would help segregate the exceptionals from the greats.
I should make a thing from the next series, that the top 3 gets "4 plates".
new vid idea: make a frankenstein serving with all top 3 combined
police.
Alderic, I don't know what series you gonna do next. Let's say you ever do pasta in future, I tell you what is very rare in Singapore, which is a very aromatic plate of aglio olio (without using parmesan). So far, whole Singapore, only 2 places satisfy me lol...
I'm actually really thinking about pasta. May I have the 2 places please? heh.
@@Alderic. Just saying first that this is my personal taste and opinion and yours may vary. You can try Pasta Formaggio (Marina Square) and 49 Seats (The CentrePoint). For 49 Seats, try out the Smoked Duck Aglio Olio. Take note though, I am recommending purely based on Aglio Olio, not other flavours of pasta dishes.
Can we do handmade pasta next?
I am a huge fan of hokkien mee yet I have only tried TTL among those that you considered in this series. Not a bad outcome since I dont appreciate the alkaline taste
how about doing bak chor mee,thks alderic🍺cheers.
i have a HUGE black horse in the best hokkien mee race. it's not the best, not the most authentic too, BUT, i love it so much, it's changi village hokkien mee at upper thompson, idk about the other branches but this branch kept me happy for the 2 years i stayed at upper thompson
👍
Nice. Do pizza next XD
Prawn noodles next? Haha but I guess you'll be sick of prawns already.
best chicken rice in singapore next?
Platonic ideal
Swee Guan is good but got 1 really bad point. $8 plate really small. not enough for an adult. It's like just a snack.
Was hoping for simon road to win...
Hi would 5 stars be better? No need to do moderation then.
Maybe 5 stars is like i love it so much i can eat like weekly
4 stars is i would travel across sg to eat it
3 stars would be if i’m around the area and craving i would order it
2 stars is average and much to be sought after
1 star is needs much more improvement
I think moderation will always be needed because expectations will be shifted throughout a 3months period. but thank you for the suggestion!
0:50 "this is not a Gen Z sports day, not everybody gets to win"
Proceed with multiple awards like 'Most Authentic Tasting' and 'One of One'
Oh the irony
I don't see the irony, 3 out 16 places were awarded. but anyway, I meant it as tongue-in-cheek comment, no malice intended.
notice tian tian is missing
hm tian tian lai as in Come Daily?
@@Alderic. Oh Sorry, I cockeye.
i mean i can eat peanut butter only
Great series and enjoy your content more and more! Watch it every week with my girlfriend now. I think bak chor mee is a good option for you to explore next, it's an extremely complex dish with a lot of different elements and I think as shown in this series you do a great job at breaking down your thoughts on the various different flavours and components in a dish and how they interact with each other. Also great to see brighter lights shone on hawker food by local content creators!
thank you! I actually think bak chor mee is Singapore's greatest noodle dish. I love it so much and I don't think anywhere else in the world does it as well.
