Old Chang Kee’s Exclusive ‘Curry Day’ Flavours Are Unexpectedly Fruity – Will You Dare To Try Them?
Back in June, Old Chang Kee announced that Curry Day 2018 will be taking place on 27 and 28 July 2018.
In case you missed the announcement, here’s the article.
They also announced that they will be unveiling 2 new exclusive Curry puffs closer to Curry Day 2018.
Enter Old Chang Kee’s new Durian Curry Chicken’O and Jackfruit Curry Chicken’O.
Curry With Jackfruit And…Durian?
Sometimes, pandering to local cuisine can take drastic turns, and this is one of them.
It may be Durian season but we’re not quite sure what to feel about mixing Durian and Curry.
[caption id="attachment_36041" align="aligncenter" width="480"] GIF Credit: giphy[/caption]Jackfruit, on the other hand, might not be that much of a stretch, considering that jackfruit is a component used in curries in Bangladesh and other parts of Asia.
Here’s a look at the Durian Curry Chicken’O in all it’s pastel green glory.
[caption id="attachment_36039" align="aligncenter" width="640"] Image Credit: Old Chang Kee[/caption]And the Jackfruit Curry Chicken’O.
[caption id="attachment_36040" align="aligncenter" width="640"] Image Credit: Old Chang Kee[/caption]These new curry puffs will be available at Curry Day 2018 at Velocity@Novena Square.
It’ll cost $4 for 2 pieces for the new curry puffs. The Chilli Crab’O will also be available at Curry Day 2018.
[caption id="attachment_35914" align="aligncenter" width="2480"] Image Credit: Old Chang Kee[/caption]Other than the myriad of Curry puff flavours you’ll find there, there will also be curry puff crimping demonstrations, so you can make your own at home! The kids can also take part in spice art lessons!
Are you looking forward to trying the Durian Curry Chicken’O and Jackfruit Curry Chicken’O?

We’ve been waiting for Wi-Fi on buses for those long bus rides and while SBS and SMRT doesn’t seem to be implementing these as permanent features anytime soon, this is the closest we can get to that dream.
I guess it’s time to start taking the bus home.

Work Out At Singapore’s First 24-Hr Container Gym For Only $7/Hr
My 2018 New Year’s Resolution was to get fit and stay in shape.
I told myself,
“Alright, time to get a gym membership, get new workout clothes, a yoga mat and start fresh!”
This resolution of mine only stuck for a month because 1. gym memberships are CRAZY expensive and 2. all those hulk-like bodybuilders can be pretty intimidating.
Besides, all they do is grunt and hog the equipments 90% of the time.
Just recently, I was introduced to a 24 hour container gym that is automated and only charges you based on the hours you book your pod for. Talk about a dream come true.
Time To Get Fit Fam
The Gym Pod is Singapore’s first 24 hours automated container smart gym. It is designed such that you can enjoy an undisturbed and private workout at anytime of your choosing.
[caption id="attachment_36024" align="aligncenter" width="1080"] Image Credit: The Gym Pod Facebook[/caption]Thanks to The Gym Pod, you can now have your very own private gym containers to exercise in. This is a complete dream come true for those who can’t deal with the crowd! No more competing for gym equipments with other gym goers and crazy gym memberships.
The Gym Pod doesn’t come with a buffet-spread worth of gym equipments but you can definitely get the basics such as a treadmill, dumbbells ranging from 1kg to 20kg, an adjustable bench as well as a guided weight-plate-loaded bar, also known as a Smith Machine.
[caption id="attachment_36025" align="aligncenter" width="1080"] Image Credit: The Gym Pod Facebook[/caption]Their equipments may not be as fancy as compared to a typical gym, but they’re sufficient to provide you with enough challenging exercises to build your body in a safe way.
But the best part of this container gym is definitely the fact that they only charge you $7/hour. They don’t run on memberships so you no longer have to stress out about that gym membership you’re paying for every month.
First-timers get to enjoy a free hour of workout as well!
[caption id="attachment_36027" align="aligncenter" width="1080"] Image Credit: The Gym Pod Facebook[/caption]Users are not allowed to stay in the gym for hours in one session which means you get guaranteed access to space and gym equipments at your booked timings. You get your own private space to workout and not be affected by crowds as the gym container only fits a max of 3 people at each time.
Open all day, every day, feel free to gym away past midnight if that’s what you like. Don’t worry, the gym is fully automated and monitored 24/7 for your safety.
The process is entirely fuss-free. After your successful booking, a SMS with a 4 digit passcode of The Gym Pod’s door at the location of your choosing will be sent to you.
At the time of your booking, simply go to The Gym Pod, key in the 4 digit passcode, and you can enter and start your workout!
[caption id="attachment_36026" align="aligncenter" width="1080"] Image Credit: The Gym Pod Facebook[/caption]While there’s only 1 pod at located at the JTC Launchpad (next to Timbre+) for now, the lovely people being The Gym Pod are working with authorities now to place more Gym Pods at convenient locations.
Or, you can drop them an email of your suggested location and who knows, you might just see a Gym Pod near your place.
Gymming in Singapore just got a whole lot easier and a lot less intimidating. So, who’s up for a good workout session?

Cold Stone Creamery’s Latest Concoction Features Cucumber Slices And…Spicy Sambal Ikan Bilis?
In another tribute to Singapore’s upcoming birthday and our diverse food culture, Cold Stone Creamery has come up with 2 new hyperlocal ice cream flavours – Nasi Lemak and Pulut Hitam.
[caption id="attachment_36016" align="aligncenter" width="960"] Image Credit: Cold Stone Creamery Singapore[/caption]These new flavours are available from 14 July to 31 August 2018.
The Nasi Lemak Ice Cream consists of coconut ice cream, roasted peanuts, rice puffs, spicy sambal ikan bilis and cucumber slices.
[caption id="attachment_36019" align="aligncenter" width="1024"] Image Credit: Twitter User Xavier Lur[/caption]Once again, we’re not sure how to feel about this. And why does every reimagined dish revolve around Nasi Lemak? Do we not any other iconic dishes?
The Pulut Hitam Ice Cream is a little more familiar. NSFs will remember the cookhouse aunties in Tekong giving Pulut Hitam ice cream on the warmer days.
The version served at Cold Stone Creamery consists of coconut ice cream and black glutinous rice. Plain and simple.
[caption id="attachment_36020" align="aligncenter" width="1024"] Image Credit: Twitter User Xavier Lur[/caption]Currently, there’s a 1-for-1 promotion on the Nasi Lemak and Pulut Hitam flavours for just $8.50. You can also add a plain or Pandan waffle cup for $1.20.
[caption id="attachment_36018" align="aligncenter" width="3366"] Image Credit: Cold Stone Creamery Singapore[/caption]This isn’t the first time that Cold Stone Creamery has come up with local flavours. Back in April, they launched Chendol Ice Cream.
[caption id="attachment_36021" align="aligncenter" width="960"] Image Credit: Cold Stone Creamery Singapore[/caption]Once again, these 2 new local flavours will be available from 14 July to 31 August 2018 at all Cold Stone Creamery outlets islandwide.
Are you going to try their Nasi Lemak ice cream?

10 Michelin Bib Gourmand Eateries Actually Worth Visiting, According To S’poreans
The list of restaurants that have been awarded the Michelin Bib Gourmand in 2018 has been released.
Not to be confused with the Michelin Star, the Bib Gourmand is awarded to eateries that serve really good food below a maximum price determined by local economic standards. For Singapore, the maximum is $45.
And this year, there are 17 new additions to the Bib Gourmand list.
However, with so many eateries on the 50-strong list, how many are ACTUALLY worth visiting?
After all, food preference is subjective. So we’ve sieved through the list of 50 to pick out our 10 favourites.
Here we go.
Ah Er Soup
If you love soup like I do, then this is it.
I’ve seen many shops with the sign “老火汤”, which translates into “Old Fire Soup”, but I’ve never come across one with accolades like the Bib Gourmand.
Ah Er Soup serves up various herbal soups with offerings such as Lotus Root Soup and Watercress Soup and even their own version of Buddha Jumps Over The Wall.
[caption id="attachment_36010" align="aligncenter" width="645"] Image Credit: Burppler Maureen Ow[/caption] [caption id="attachment_36009" align="aligncenter" width="645"] Image Credit: Burppler Bryan Lee[/caption]Every order of soup comes with white or pumpkin rice. And the best part is, the prices are incredibly affordable, between $3.50 to $6.50.
Ah Er Soup
Address: 6 Jalan Bukit Merah, ABC Brickworks Market & Food Centre #01-143, Singapore 618642
Opening Hours: Daily: 11am – 9pm
Alliance Seafood
Alliance Seafood blends into the sea of tze char stalls at Newton Food Centre very easily mainly because it looks like a generic stall.
It doesn’t really look any different from a regular tze char stall.
[caption id="attachment_36007" align="aligncenter" width="960"] Image Credit: Newton Alliance Seafood 27[/caption]Like any tze char stall, the available dishes are quite standard. You can expect Chilli Crab, Black Pepper Crab, Fried Rice, Cereal Prawn, BBQ Stingray, Sambal Kangkong, and more.
[caption id="attachment_36008" align="aligncenter" width="960"] Image Credit: Newton Alliance Seafood 27[/caption]Seats are hard to find due to the crowd here, so come early with a tissue packet for the chope.
Alliance Seafood
Address: Newton Food Centre, 501 Clemenceau Avenue North #01-27, Singapore 229495
Opening Hours: Thu – Tue: 1pm – 12am, Wed: Closed
Chey Sua Carrot Cake
Don’t expect to find the sweet, dark carrot cake here because Chey Sua Carrot Cake only serves the savoury, white carrot cake.
The carrot cake here is homemade from scratch, unlike most carrot cake stalls nowadays who prefer to use machine-processed carrot cake chunks.
[caption id="attachment_36006" align="aligncenter" width="645"] Image Credit: Burppler Anthony Ali[/caption]The cooking method is also slightly different. While most carrot cake hawkers pan-fry the carrot cake chunks first before cracking and adding the eggs later, Chey Sua Carrot Cake mixes the carrot cake chunks in beaten egg mixture before pouring it on to the pan to fry.
The result is a carrot cake that resembles a pancake. Flat with each carrot cake chunk evenly coated in egg mixture.
Need your carrot cake fix? Be prepared for a wait. Especially now that they’ve received their Bib Gourmand accolade.
Chey Sua Carrot Cake
Address: Blk 127 Toa Payoh West Market & Food Centre Lorong 1 #02-30, Singapore 310127
Opening Hours: Tue – Sun: 6am – 1pm, Mon: Closed
Hoo Kee Bak Chang
Hoo Kee Bak Chang is known to be Singapore’s best bak chang (rice dumpling).
If you love salted egg, then you’ll love this too. They’re known for their Salted Egg with Chestnut Bak Chang – a traditional bak chang with the addition of salted egg yolk.
[caption id="attachment_36005" align="aligncenter" width="645"] Image Credit: Burppler Bryan Lee[/caption]The bak changs are priced from $2.80 to $3.60 and each one is handmade.
If you know your bak chang, then you have to try this because there’s no better bak chang than this.
Hoo Kee Bak Chang
Address: 7 Maxwell Road, Amoy Street Food Centre #01-18, Singapore 069111
Opening Hours: Mon – Sat: 11am – 3pm, Sun: Closed
Contact no.: 6221 1155
Address: Blk 161 Bukit Merah Central #01-3735, Singapore 150161 There are other sides to order as well, such as various boiled soups and blanched vegetables with oyster sauce. Because of the long waiting times, there’s the option to call ahead to place your orders so piping hot claypot rice will be ready when you arrive. Lian He Ben Ji Claypot Rice I remember there was a stall in Bukit Panjang Plaza’s Kopitiam that sold really good Chinese-style curry. I love Chinese-style curry. It is usually spicier and comes paired with either white rice or baguette. This is what you’ll find at Na Na Homemade Curry. They serve a variety of Chinese-style curries, with options such as Curry Chicken ($3), Curry Vegetable ($3), Curry Fish Head, and even Curry Mutton ($4) and Curry Pork Ribs ($4). Order yours with a side of white rice or toasted baguette slices because you’ll definitely need a buffer for the incoming spice hit. Na Na Homemade Curry Outram Park Fried Kway Teow Mee always has a long queue, but don’t worry, it clears pretty quickly because every plate is cooked and served with surprising speed. Even though it says “Kway Teow Mee” in the name, what they serve here is basically Char Kway Teow. However, the version here isn’t as oily as the ones you’d find elsewhere, with plenty of egg, lard, beansprouts, and cockles. They’re also not heavy-handed with their dark soy sauce so the Char Kway Teow is more savoury than sweet. You can order the spicy version and your order will be fried with chilli instead of the typical scoop of chilli on the side. This is probably the best Char Kway Teow you can find in Singapore at the moment. Outram Park Fried Kway Teow Mee Chicken rice is probably Singapore’s most iconic dish. Everyone can learn to cook chicken rice, but few can make GOOD chicken rice. However, that’s what Sin Kee Famous Cantonese Chicken Rice has managed to achieve. The chicken is tender and full of flavour, so no complaints there. The chicken rice, however, could do with a stronger flavour. At this point it just seems like white rice flavoured with a bit of chicken stock and is a little mild. I prefer the chicken rice to be full of flavour. And now the aspect of chicken rice that can make or break the dish, the chilli. Once again, flawless execution. Spicy with a hit of tanginess, thanks to the lime and vinegar. You want good chicken rice? This is where you should be going. Sin Kee Famous Cantonese Chicken Rice Ipoh Hor Fun is a magical dish. It’s neither kway teow or hor fun. It just toes the line between the 2 and is so simple yet delicious. The ones served at Shi Hui Yuan come with either duck, chicken, braised spare ribs, or a mixture of all 3. The recommended one is the Blissful Combination ($5), which has braised shiitake mushrooms, roast duck and chicken slices, as well as braised spare ribs. A worthy mention is the sauce that they pour over the hor fun. It’s a magical concoction of the braising liquid of the mushrooms, spare ribs, and chicken. The biggest problem you’ll encounter here is finishing your hor fun before you can finish the sauce. Shi Hui Yuan Hor Fun Specialty Zai Shun Curry Fish Head looks just like a regular cai fan stall albeit slightly more upscale, with their rather impressive display shelves for the dishes. While their name suggests that they’re known for their Curry Fish Head, it’s their Steamed Fish that fares better and is more popular. The steamed fish depends on the catch of the day which ranges from red snapper to grouper. Aside from their signature Steamed Fish, other must-orders include the Salted Egg Minced Pork, Fried Egg with Bittergourd, Har Cheong Gai (Prawn Paste Chicken), Braised Pork Belly, and Herbal Chicken. There’s a lot more that’s worth trying so our advice is bring more people so you’ll get to try everything once. Zai Shun Curry Fish Head So there you have it. 10 of the best eateries, out of the 50 chosen by the Michelin inspectors, that’s actually approved and loved by locals. Are any of these eateries already a favourite of yours? Or which are you going to try next? Let us know!

Beyond Char Siew Siew Yoke – Cantonese Words & Phrases You Can Impress Your Grandma With
If you read the previous article on Hokkien 101, you’d know that I grew up speaking Hokkien.
What I didn’t add, however, is that my parents and grandparents spoke both Hokkien and Cantonese fluently, though I only managed to pick up 1 dialect.
I’ve always wanted to pick up Cantonese though but I can never seem to properly grasp the dialect’s tones and pronunciation.
But today, I’m going to try my best to convey the basic Cantonese words and phrases that I’ve managed to learn from my helpful colleagues and family.
The flow will be the same as the Hokkien 101 article, so it’ll be easier for comparison. Now, let’s dive in!
1. Oy and Mm-Oy
Oy, means “want” and Mm-Oy means “don’t want”.
The lack of consonants in Oy bothers me a little bit.
[caption id="attachment_35981" align="aligncenter" width="245"] GIF Credit: giphy[/caption]So in future, if the waitress in Yum Cha pushes you the dim sum cart for Phoenix Claws, just say “Mm-Oy“.
2. Oy-Mm-Oy
It took me a while to not completely butcher this term into “Oy-Moy”.
Oy-Mm-Oy is the Cantonese equivalent of “Ai Mai”.
Example: “We’re planning a trip to Hong Kong in November and we have one more slot in our AirBNB. Oy-Mm-Oy?”
3. Chut Hoi
Chut Hoi, sometimes also known as Chut Gai, means “going out” or “heading out”.
Chut Hooi directly translates into “leaving home” and Chut Gai translates into “Going onto the street”. Either way, both mean that you’re not home.
[caption id="attachment_35982" align="aligncenter" width="245"] GIF Credit: giphy[/caption]Example: “Where are you going? Everyday Chut Gai, then leave me at home with your father. I don’t know raise children for what.”
4. Saek Fong
Saek Fong, like Jiak Hong, also literally translates into “eating air”.
It means “to travel” or “holidaying”.
Example: “Eh your trip to Macau next month is for work or you going Saek Fong?”
5. Fan Ohk
Fan Ohk (read: fun oak), means “to go home”.
Example: “I’m going to fan ohk. You guys go ahead and karaoke without me.”
6. Lok Yu
Lok Yu is the equivalent of “Lor Hor”.
[caption id="attachment_35983" align="aligncenter" width="500"] GIF Credit: giphy[/caption]So if you hear anyone saying that it “Lok Yu“, better grab your umbrella.
7. Saek And Saek Fan
Saek means to eat, though Saek Fan is more commonly used.
Saek Fan translates to “eat rice”.
[caption id="attachment_35984" align="aligncenter" width="200"] GIF Credit: giphy[/caption]Example: “Guys, let’s go Saek Fan leh. 1.30pm already. I’m hungry.”
8. Fan Gao
Fan Gao means “sleep” or “sleeping”.
Example: “I’m gonna go home to Fan Gao. I’m super tired.”
9. Lei Hou Ma
This isn’t Lei Hou’s mother.
This is the Cantonese version of “Ho Seh Bo?” or “How are you?”
Example: “Hello auntie, Lei Hou Ma?”
10. Tak and Mm-Tak
Tak (read: tuck), means can. While Mm-Tak means cannot.
Example:
A: “Ma, can I go out with my friends?”
B: “Mm-Tak! You never finish your homework, you don’t go out.”
OR
A: “Can I borrow your pen?”
B: “Tak. Would you like the blue or black one?”
11. Tak-Mm-Tak
Tak-Mm-Tak, the combination of the previous 2 words, basically translates into “can or not?”
Example: “Eh I borrow your laptop, Tak-Mm-Tak? I need to check something.”
12. Fai Di
Fai Di means to “hurry up”.
[caption id="attachment_35985" align="aligncenter" width="190"] GIF Credit: giphy[/caption]Example: “Fai Di lah! We’re going to be late at this rate.”
13. Dor Tseh
Dor Tseh is the ever-useful “thank you”.
[caption id="attachment_35986" align="aligncenter" width="295"] GIF Credit: giphy[/caption]Always remember your “please” and “thank you”.
So there you have it, Cantonese words and phrases that aren’t names of Dim Sum dishes. Cantonese is a polite and refined dialect, unlike the seeming brash tones of Hokkien.
Once again, dialects are important because they’re part of the Chinese heritage. Don’t let it die out.

Kygo Is Coming Back To Singapore With A Concert This November

Nothing To Watch At The Cinemas? Relive Iconic Studio Ghibli And Pixar Films At This Event In July
Are you a cinephile? Do you “curate” movies to watch?
If there’s nothing currently showing in the cinemas that interests you, how about going to a pop up cinema?
[caption id="attachment_35962" align="aligncenter" width="2048"] Image Credit: Popcorn[/caption]Organised by Funzing and Popcorn, the Popcorn Pop Up Cinema takes place on multiple days in a week, at multiple locations, each playing a different movie.
Pop Up Cinema Experience
Apart from their interesting choices for movies to show, another good thing about this pop up cinema is that it’s only $9 for a movie. Which is cheaper than what I usually pay for at Golden Village.
What’s more, if you buy their unlimited pass, you’ll be able to go for as many Pop Up Cinema screenings, Quiz Nights, and Funzing Talks within 30 days.
1 Unlimited pass is $16, 2 for $28, and a Family pack of 4 passes will be $48. You can purchase it here.
Now, here’s a list of movies that they’ll be showing for the month of July.
