The commitment to bring the cloche across the world is just outstanding. I wonder how the airport security guy reacted to that 😂

You guys have really spoiled us this season! Its gonna be hard to go back to normal but im savoring it while i can! 🔥🔥🔥🔥⭐⭐⭐⭐

This advent calendar has been such a wonderful gift guys! Thank you so much! Been loving every video!😊😊😊😊😊😊

No question about it, you have to bring more of the Sorted crew back here to Singapore! There is no end to the great food here and everyone deserves a try.

Love the fact that you took the cloche to Singapore for the reveals 😂

As a Singaporean, as much as I love Western food, going back to Asian food just makes me go "Ahhhh this is the best". Hahahahaha

Singapore was my love at first sight, I can't wait to visit it for the 3rd time. Its by far the best country/city I have ever visited.

so happy that you guys enjoyed the food here!!! the next time you try the chilli crab, remember to order the fried mantou (a kind of sweet bread) to mop up all that sauce, i guarantee it takes it to a whole other level:D but truly, this video made me so happy to be a sorted fan and singaporean 💕

"have you eaten" feels like a very general asian greeting especially with family/friends. i know chinese people say that very frequently, and my grandmother would often ask me and my cousins this whenever we visited as kids.

Understanding the geo-politics of Singapore and Malaysia, most "Malaysian dishes" pre-dates the formation of Malaysia as a country. So a lot of the same dishes can actually be found in both Singapore and Malaysia, with both countries having equal claim. There are also a few varieties of laksa available in the region. Katong Laksa (the one that you guys are more familiar with) and Siglap Laksa originates from Singapore whereas Penang/Asam Laksa and Johor Laksa hails from Malaysia. Also, don't forget that it was the merger of Malaya, Singapore, Sarawak and North Borneo that led to the formation of Malaysia... even though Singapore got kicked out in less than 2 years afterwards and became an independent country. So it does get difficult to pinpoint the true origin.

I can only imagine how much work this is for the Sorted Team but I just wanted to thank you for the daily videos. I look forward to them every day! Love the content, the creativity, and comraderie.

Roti Prata with mutton curry for breakfast, bak kut teh and sambal stingray are some of my top recommendations! ^^ Please do come back and experience more of our great food!

Going to the shop with the longest queue is a quintessential Singaporean trait - well done! Also, I've absolutely loved the range of our food that you managed to try this trip but can't help but think of even more foods that you missed out on... guess the only solution is you guys have to plan a second trip back for more food! Maybe we'll find something that really "challenges" Jamie next time :D

Really happy to see my favourite Fuzhou Fried Oyster Cake stall featured here, and even better, that you enjoyed it! My family has bought from this stall for decades!

I don't have a comment but as a Singaporean I want to be part of your video statistics when you look up how much engagement your Singapore videos get so you'll try more of our food and come back for longer!

I love how Ben just forgoed the gloves and went barehands for the chilli crab!! That's the way~

Yes, do come back! Lor mee, bak kut teh, hokkien mee, prawn noodles, nasi lemak, Indian or Chinese rojak, char siew/sio bak, oyster omelette... just so many awesome dishes left to try!

i used to work near maxwell and i have the oyster cake once a week. it’s so freaking addictive.

As always, I love your travel videos! What a wonderful job you've all created for yourselves. Also, you are all charming ambassadors for the UK.

Ahh I miss Singapore. I used to travel there (or through there) 4 or 5 times a year in the last 10 or 15 years of my working career. Retired now. My personal preference is Pepper Crab with steamed or fried buns to mop up the sauce and a side of seafood fried rice. On a trip there with my twin brother (he flew from California, I from the UK) we found a fantastic Laksa place outside the main city which had won awards... you sat on plastic chairs on the pavement (sidewalk) and were approached by a beer seller who was a separate merchant to the unlicensed Laksa seller. Fantastic rustic delicious.

So happy for this Advent Calendar! I normally only get them for my son, so being able to excitedly "open" one every morning (Aloha! 🌴🌺) too has been such a wonderful treat! Thank you, @SortedFood! 🥰

I can't tell if Ebbers is sweating from the climate or from the heat of the food lol. Love it. Great job y'all! Looks like you guys enjoyed your time in Singapore.

Love the fact that you lads came all the way here to sample the food :). FYI, the other famous oyster cake stall (Fu Zhou Poh Hwa Oyster Cake) is in Berseh Food Centre. If you only had a few days to spend to try hawker food in Singapore, I would suggest Old Airport Road Food Centre (accessible by the subway (or MRT as we call it) , Circle Line: Dakota Station) which has one of the greatest variety of hawker stalls and some of the famous hawker franchises in Singapore do set up their branches here. Another favourite hawker centre of mine is Hong Lim Market & Food Centre (accessible by North East Line & Downtown Line : Chinatown station). Famous stalls include : Outram Park Char Kway Teow, Ipoh Crayfish Hor Fun, Ji Ji Wanton Noodle Specialist, Curry Chicken Noodles (both stalls are good) and my favourite Cantonese Delights stall which does a really good Chicken Cutlet Noodles. Be prepared to go early though as long queues form up by 11:30am for most of these stalls.

Singaporean in the UK. I hope you enjoyed our island nation!

Great episode! More suggestions: a typical S'porean breakfast of kaya toast, Roti prata, half-boiled eggs with soya sauce, yutiao (crullers)Lunch: lor mee, oyster omelette; Dinner: claypot rice.

Please come back to try even more food so that you can include them in the cook offs! Flavours in Singapore are so unique, I would like to see how everyone does their own take in the Sorted kitchen!😆😆

South East Asian food is just so amazing. Together with Japanese food it is my favorite food.

Laksa is one of my favorite dishes, but sadly you cant get it in Switzerland :-(. So I am just enjoying it in my mind whilst watching Jamie and Ben eating it.

LOVE your travel videos guys! Its among your Best 🎉🎉🎉🎉

One of the things I like about this format is that I think we're seeing stuff from trips, special guests etc, that may not have shown at the time that they were shot but that are still very fascinating to us! So don't feel that you have to put all related things together to post at the same time!

This video could not have come out at a better time! I'm about to go to Singapore in January and I can't wait to go to these places that you've visted. Definitely sending this video to my mum 😂 Thank you!!

If you guys ever come back to Singapore, there are so many other things for you to try! There’s the Beach Road Prawn noodles that’s located at Upper East Coast road And also a Chinese version of Fish Head Curry that tastes really different from any curry that you guys might be familiar with at NaNa’s Curry at Bedok interchange

Live in Australia and Laksa is one of my favourite dishes. Because I'm a sucker for cheap but good, and meaty meals, there is an Asian Restaurant near me that has Laksa with Chicken, Pork, Tofu, Prawn and Squid, along with the sprouts, some fresh chilli and a beautiful broth. Of course it's not normally all that meat, they are just the options and I get a combo. You are absolutely right, Jamie, when you say that some restaurants have just noodles, broth and toppings that are all quite separate from each other, it is always great when you find one that balances all the elements to perfectly compliment each other.

The noise suppression is working overtime in this one. Bang up job by the editing team! And as always amazing video!

always warms my heart to see people enjoying food in singapore! ❤

Awesome video! I’m Singaporean but never know where to bring visitors so I’ll have to co-opt your excellently curated places for friends coming over next year! Glad you guys had a great time!

Hokkien mee!!! Where they cook the noodles in a rich pork bone/prawn shell broth and stir-fry at the same time so it has both the wok hei char and the slurpy goodness of soup infused in the dish. If you're looking for something that might challenge without going overboard like a durian, kway chap. Large flat sheets of rice noodles, served in a fairly delicate dark herbal soup, but often includes pig intestines as one of the various sides.

A list of things to try when you come back to Singapore 1. Singapore-style Hawker Centre Coffee (Kopi). I highly recommend you to try Kopi 'O'. 2. Minced Meat Noodles (Bak Chor Mee) at Kovan Hawker Centre (e.g. Chun Fu Fishball Minced Meat Noodle, Fa Ji Minced Meat Fishball Noodle and Yam Mee Teochew Fishball Mee). 3. Chomp Chomp BBQ Sambal Stingray at Bedok 85 Market. 4. Lorong Ah Soo Lor Mee (Braised Noodles) at Hougang Hainanese Village Centre. 5. Koh Brother Pig's Organ Soup at Tiong Bahru Market and Hawker Centre. 6. Hong Heng Fried Sotong Prawn Mee at Tiong Bahru Market and Hawker Centre. 7. Dumpling Noodle from You Cai Wanton Mee at 58 New Upper Changi Rd. 8. Tapioca Cake and Ondeh-Ondeh from Heng Heng Ondeh-Ondeh & Tapioca Cake at Maxwell Food Centre. 9. Claypot Rice from Lian He Ben Ji Claypot Rice at Chinatown Complex Food Centre. 10. Green Bean Soup, Red Bean Soup, White Wheat Porridge (Pulut Terigu) and Chinese Sweet Soup (Cheng Tng) from Xi Le Ting at Commonwealth Crescent Market and Food Centre.

100% you must return to Singapore and explore the food scene even more. This was a treat to watch!

I am Indonesian living in Europe, and this video is the closest thing to home, thanks guys!

Your travels have given me so many foodie destinations! Thanks guys!😊😊😊😊❤❤❤

Wonderful stuff fellas. I’ve been to Singapore many times and dream of its food especially Nyonya which is a trial to make but well worth it. I also speak Bahasa so just a minor correction on laksa pronunciation, the first (a) is pronounced like the last, more of a U sound. So Lucksah would be closer to the phonetic. We’ll have to wait and see if you had time for High Tea in the series but I hope you did. Singapore really know how to put on a show when it comes to the food experience. Australian Chef in Europe, Steve.

I'm glad the boys had such a great time. I'd definitely love to see more of Singapore.

Great, now I have to go to Singapore. Thanks for this highlight on food that looks absolutely delicious!

Best food/ entertainment channel! No yelling at ppl who don't have experience. ( Except for Jamie yelling at himself)😂❤

The "egg omelette" in the laksa is actually taupok, or dried beancurd. It's a key ingredient in Southeast Asian cuisine.

This advent calendar has been such fun! I really appreciate all the hard work that went into it. I'm hoping you might find a way to do it again next year!

I am confident saying that Laksa could be the absolute pinnacle of human achievement.

Oyster Cakes, Samy's Curry, Lau Pa Sat Satay Street are all considered old school dishes. These are establishments that have been around in one form or another since before even the 1980s.

That banana leaf meal reminded me of home in South India. Love to see that Singapore does it so well!

Ahhh local here who works near Maxwell food Centre and I must say, wonderful video! The laksa stall is one of my personal favorite hidden gems and the oyster pancakes are a bit more well known among locals but not so much to tourists so thanks for trying them out! Also great strategy when choosing the satay stall, picking the one with the longest queue - that’s how we locals do it too! 😂

You need to visit us more often for more food tasting! Love to see you enjoying the food here!

Next time, you have to try Bakkutteh (meaning meat bone tea)! It's a specialty of Teochew (my people) and Hoklo (Hokkien/Fujian ethnics). It's one of my most favorite foods I can't find easily so whenever I visit Singapore (or the nearby Indonesian island Batam where a lot of my family lives), I always eat a lot of those, and if I had my way, every day!

this December has been incredible with the daily uploads, in the future after december i think we would all enjoy a more structured upload schedule, every “x” days or on certain days of the week

Great job with all the videos and content, especially the travelling ones make me what to go out and try the food for my self. It would be awesome if there was a guide like this for every city and food.

I hope you guys do the full South, Southeast and East Asian food tour. So many countless spots and dishes that must be reviewed.

Thank you for this wonderful video of a British chef trying out Singaporean street food 👍

Yes you have to, and you will, go back! Singapore hawker center roti paratha with chicken curry, that I first tried in 2002 (about $2 AUD back then), remains one of my top 5 foods of all time! The melting pot (*pause...drink*) of Chinese, Malaysian and Indian cuisine in Singapore is so unique and just incredible!

😢 the 24th is coming too fast. Going to miss the daily uploads. Thank you guys for all the hard work you've put in

Normally we have deep fried slightly sweet soft flufy buns to dip into that chilli crab sauce… Next time when you lads visit try Roast Paradise Bbq Pork at Old Airport Road Hawker Centre… Mikey Chen loves it too

that why my country Singapore is called a food paradise almost every kind of fusion food you can find here hope you come to Singapore again if you guys can please try stay in singapore for at least 2 weeks i'm sure you can explore most of the food we have that way

Great video guys!!! The best part was the Laksa. Soooo good!!!

Ooh wish I'd seen this and the first vid before going to Singapore in March this year. Had some good food but now I have to go again and check some of this out! Thanks SO much for the calendar! Merry Yule! 🌲

These back to back video posting is amazing. I’m going to crave it after new years :(

Would love for you guys to come back to Singapore!! Still have loads of amazing food to try

Great to see you guys try the local food at hawkers and coffeeshops even though the weather here can be quite humid! 😊

Just wondering, did Ben and Jamie get some of those fried buns (man tou) to dip into the chili crab gravy? Because if they didn't, they have definitely missed out on another layer of enjoyment

Love to see it!! (it's pronounced as "Laak-sah")

1. Most Laksa stalls in Singapore don't normally give prawns. Cockles are more common. While having the sambal chili helps to enhance the flavour, it is possible to request for 'no chili' for laksa if you find it too spicy. 2. Mud Crabs are the most common crabs seen for sale in Singapore. In second place, it will be the Flower Crab.

I've been watching your videos since the first Sorted kitchen/studio. I am so happy to see Ben and Jamie enjoy the food in Singapore!

A very merry Christmas to you all at Sorted! Thank you so very much for the advent calendar and all the inspiration and smiles you share. Will definately miss my daily video fix. Kind regards from Bulawayo Zimbabwe.

I just had lunch and watching this my mouth is watering again!😋

I was waiting for this! And now, I guess that's the end (for now) of your Singaporean Food Adventure. You've hit all the high spots - Chicken Rice, Chilli Crab, Laksa, Fishhead Curry, Satay (at Satay Street!) and my fave - Char Kway Teow. You want more recommendations? 1) Ethnic Diversity - Singapore is a GREAT place to try Indian Food. Head down to Tekka Centre to try Indian food. Geylang Serai Food Centre (currently under renovation, done sometime in 2024), for Malay food. 2) If the Chilli Crab is not spicy enough (Jumbo's Chilli Crab is sweeter and less spicy - some say more "eggy". Longhouse's Chilli Crab is supposedly spicier.) Try Black Pepper Crab, the slightly lesser known sibling of Chilli Crab. Also, you did not order Mantou. It's a fried bun that you can use to soak up Chilli Crab sauce. I once ordered naan from an Indian stall and use that to dip into the chilli crab sauce. Only in Singapore. (And I believe some places offer White Pepper Crab.)

I really love the advent calendar this year. I am sick most of this month so having everyday something to look forward too is nice.

Like your closing, Clean, Green and food scene is Mean! Do come again, one of the best place u ever Been! 🇸🇬

This video advent calendar has made my holiday season! Thanks, guys 😊

Great video! LOVE everything you guys have showcased in the 2 episodes on Singapore food! but I might be biased. :) A tip on the chilli crab. 1 crab is pretty big, and you can ask them to prepare half the crab in chilli and another in black or white pepper. Some might argue that Black Pepper Crab is better than the Chilli Crab at Jumbo.

Singapore food FTW! I'm so happy for you boys checking out my home! ....even though I was on holiday while you came here LOL

Satay Street: Ben: takes a bite Jamie: takes the whole thing 😂😂😂

Oh man, I miss food from that area soo much. Need to go back soon! It's just not the same when I try to make it at home lol. I miss Singaporean Mei Fun as well.

As a Singaporean, as much as I love Malay foods at Geylang Serai & Indian foods at Little India. Have to try! ❤

I’m sad… no one tried the fish eyes! They pop and are so good!

So happy you guys came to my country!! I'm amazed you guys even ate Oyster Cakes...which most Singaporeans haven't even tried before. YAY

Petition for sorted food to try all Singaporean dishes 😁

I love the advent calendar of videos this month!! Thanks for all the hard work and i hope you all enjoy your vacations after this month and are able to get some rest and relaxation!

If you can go back, yes, but oh my, there is a huge world to explore. I enjoyed Singapore. Did you ride the big ferris wheel? You really should. What a fun month we are are having!

"The sauce is almost like a gravy" said while having curry. Never change, Jamie. 😁

You should come back and try some Malay and more Indian cuisine. You gotta try the different rojak from various ethnicities we have here in Singapore. Each of the ethnicities have their own noodle dish, rice dish, economical rice, and different family style dishes. If you have the time do try them all. And as a healthcare worker, I'd recommend you do a health screening afterwards.

"I want meat skewers!" "You don't satay?!?" ^-^

You generally will never go wrong with street food in asia. Any establishment that has lasted more than a month is guaranteed to be good, since unlike hole-in-the-wall places in the west, they don't rely on the same clientele or "curious" foodies; they have to appeal to the general masses while also standing out. It results in food that is simultaneously unique but also consistently delicious.

Looking at Asian cruises for next year and a few start in Singapore so you get a few days before you sale there and this is just going to make me want to go even more. Been about 10 years since I was last in Singapore and Malaysia (I grew up there) and I’m long overdue another visit! Food is so cheap there too that you can sample all the dishes and not worry about overspending too

The oyster cake was my fav! I also love fish head curry, especially at muthus where they used to have unlimited rice refill. Satay club was so good when they were at Esplanade, just as good when they went to Lau Pa Sak. Not sure if they are still there, not been home for years

the lady laughing behind 😂 adorable.

Would love to see the rest of the boys back in singapore with you guys

This calendar is so much fun! Kuddos to you for doing this and planning so much ahead!

Singapore is one of those countries when you are in it as a tourist, it feels like the city itself is in a constant state of vacation vibes.

Minds blown. Incredible places I plan to visit, thank you.

It's kinda a big boomerang if you think about it as modern Singapore was founded by the British, then Singaporean food appeared in UK and now Sorted is in Singapore enjoying the Singapore food and culture. Have a great one guys!

Theres two words that spring to mind when the Sorted team go on an epic international adventure to discover new food and culture. Tax deductible. Only joking, I'm loving this. I'm hoping a lot of this was filmed earlier in the year and right now you're enjoying a well earned break.

Oysters are my favorite seafood and those fried oyster cakes are calling my name!
