For this video, we went down to Wow Wow West at Bukit Merah to do a huge Western Food Platter Mukbang. I decided to do a Mukbang and not a speed challenge because my throat is still recovering from the Monster Curry Challenge. Western food served by Singaporean hawkers are generally English and Italian inspired dishes that have been adjusted for local tastes. Wow Wow West is no different, serving affordable but gigantic portions of Fish and Chips, Chicken Chops and Grilled Cheese Sausages among others. Each dish comes with sides of French Fries, Coleslaw and Baked Beans. Wow Wow West has been around for almost 20 years, with their massive portion size never changing.
For my Western Food Platter Mukbang, I brought my giant plate which was loaded with 2 servings of Fish and Chips, a Chicken Cutlet, a Chicken Chop, a Pork Chop, 2 Cheese Sausages and heaps of their sides. The Fish and Chips, breaded and not battered as is the norm here in Singapore, came with a distinctly pink tartar sauce that added a sweet and savoury dimension to the crispy whole fillets of fish. The chops were drowned in a brown sauce that was also sweet and savoury but in a meatier way and complemented the pure unadulterated flavours of the meats, which were grilled superbly. The Chicken Cutlet came as expected, well-seasoned and crunchy, while not dry on the inside. The Cheese Sausages naturally had cheese inside them and were made with natural casings. They were not overly salty nor did they taste like processed meat.
For the sides, the French Fries were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside while being well-seasoned. The coleslaw was unicolour and similarly one-dimensional in flavour, but rounded off the meal as a vegetable dish. The Baked Beans came from a can, so you would either like them or hate them.
It was an enjoyable Mukbang for me to do as it brought back a flood of childhood memories that most Singaporeans would be familiar with. The food was good for hawker fare while being both affordable and large in portions. However, they do not offer this Western Food Platter on their menu for those who would like to try this mukbang, but you can mix and match through their usual menu to replicate it.
Head over to Wow Wow West for an affordable and filling Western meal!
