Brian got the pronunciation of 'zi char' quite on point. The lady he spoke to said 'zhu chao' which is actually the mandarin way of saying zi char. Zi char is in a chinese dialect; Hokkien, which literally means 'cook and stir-fry'. Brian is a real one for immersing himself and his family in the local culture. Glad to see him enjoying Singapore.

@ShadowMoon878 7 ай бұрын

That lady is from China. You can immediately tell. Locals will always pepper Hokkien and Cantonese into their sentences like Bo Jio, Guai Lan and Kao Pei Kao Bu. Also, when ordering at Hawker Centre or Food Court and you wanna takeaway, try saying you wanna Tarpau. Only locals will understand what you saying.

Hey, this guy mixes in better than some of those China folks who can't be bothered with our local dialects! When I listen to this Ang Moh, I'm thoroughly impressed. Singlish is NOT just a mish-mash of different dialects into English. It's an identity that we crafted ourselves, on this island in the center of the Straits of Malacca. Anyone who is capable of embracing our culture to this extent is worthy of becoming a 'true-blue' Singaporean. I welcome you.

Brian's way of speaking was so localised and down to earth, the results of his 16 years s Living in Singapore. The way he named those foods at the hawker centre is evidence of him having immersed locally as he had mentioned. He even sent one of his sons to do NS, which shy to say, many parents are reluctant especially so for the PR parents. This is one of the most enjoyable videos I've watched so far 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Salute to Brian for being so upfront and honest - today I'm actually hearing that the expats think that hawker centres are unhygienic, despite their praises about SG being world class and safe. And to his point about being the only ang mohs in that hawker centre, there is not even 1 single ang moh if you're here in the 80s and 90s. So one step at a step 😛 Thank you Brian for loving our hawker food 🙂

In the early days before we have hawker centres, all the streetfood is sold by street hawkers setting up temporary stalls along the roadsides. Everything from soya bean drinks to chicken rice to BKT to hokkien mee. For hygiene purpose, permanent hawker centres were built and all the street hawkers shifted into hawker centres or coffeeshops. To understand how things used to be, just visit neighbouring countries, where street hawkers are still very common. As for the Zi Char which is hokkien, Brian's pronounciation is very close.

'Zi char' 煮炒 "cook & fry" refers to affordable a la carte food cooked to order. Everything from rice/noodles dishes (cheapest but delicious on its own) to omelettes/beancurds, vegetables, soups, meats, seafood (chilli crab/shark fin tend to be the priciest), et al. as listed in the stall's menu. Economy rice 经济饭 "thrift meal" refers to similar dishes (but precooked) which are served in single helpings (thus cheaper than zi char) when selected (eg. "2 meats + 1 vegetable"), & typically eaten with white rice. Aka 'cai png' 菜饭 (Hokkien), or 杂饭 "mixed rice" in English or 'chap fan' (Cantonese). Thes 2 types of hawker stalls, together with the drinks stall (typically run by the landlord), will customarily anchor every kopitiam or eatery.
