BUDDYMOON DAY 444/1000 (VLOG 126)
In this video, we head to Singapores China town, a popular area within Singapore. We came here to check out what it's like and try some food that is popular in this area. Little did we know that the locals would be so kind and help us in making sure we try the right food. We went Vincent in the 1950's Kopi shop where he said that a Kopi with condense milk is a mult try when in Singapore.

@pklp-lr4xmthis is about Chinatown in Singapore, not China :)
If anyone ever asks me "Who is the happiest person you have ever seen in your life?", she will definitely cross my mind. Such a happy cheerful person she is.
Ahhhhhh Thank you 😀 just enjoying life :)
Really nice couple God bless you both💐👍👌
Yes! She was born to smile😁I cannot imagine her in any other emotional state now after all these hours of massive smiles! It’s really nice to see that they are both so happy, kind of strange because UA-cam is the first place really you get a look into relationships from the outside and the level of respect they have for each other the way they treat each other is really nice. You can see the little things they do for each other and it adds up. Great channel.
Oh man u r soo lucky, that girl is very pretty,very cute and kind hearted, her heart is full of humanity, love u both
Vincent is a legend
Xiao long bao beat eaten with spoon so that the soup in it will not drip out and can drink the little soup in it first. This stall didnt give stredded ginger, likely they forgotten. Can first try one without any sauce to know the original taste, then eat another one with the ginger and the black vinegar. (The dark sauce is vinegar and not soy sauce)
Loving your South African accents.
BTW, the xiao long bao doesn’t have vinegar in it. It’s the pork broth from the juicy meat and fats. The dip is not a soya sauce but a black vinegar. Most people like to dip the xiao long Bao in vinegar and eat it with fresh and thinly shredded ginger.
Thanks for coming to Singapore and see you again soon!
❤Singaporean
Attitude 0℅
Ego 0℅
Hardwork 100℅
Honest 100℅
Love u both ❤
Thanks so much 😀
Spot on @kruksh !!
I just knew people would jump on the virtual signalling bandwagon about the impersonation🤦🏻♀️ It was not racist at all! No one was oppressed…people don’t even understand what racism means in this ridiculous, woke world! Trying to speak in a different accent is not disrespectful…it is merely acknowledging differences in the way different cultures sound when speaking English. Leanne and Daniel’s accent is South African and has many different inflections when speaking English than a Chinese person would have….or an Australian; American for that matter!
Love the videos 👍
@@dianneklangmy wife is half Chinese (her dad full) and I do it all the time, they love it. It’s good to have fun in life like that, people need to stop taking everything so seriously. There’s a guy on here that dresses up as the stereotype of countries and asks Americans if it is racist and they always say yes. Then he asks the people from the countries and they always say no. It proves that this whole thing is coming from a few fools who want to control others!
If you’re still in Singapore, look for Hokkein Mee, Char Kway Teow and fried (black or white) carrot cake! They’re very affordable and yummy! There’s a hawker stall at gourmet express in Bishan (yellow line exit) if that’s not too far for you!
Is it inconvenient for Chinese people to go to Singapore without speaking English?
We speak Chinese
@@treesmith5914 I would say slightly inconvenient. But you should be able to find Chinese speaking people in most areas of the island
You guys are utilising your life the BEST way ! Wish you both cover ALL of the World. Huge thanks for the job you are doing. Respect for you both.
Everyone deserves a helping friend like Vincent
Small correction - you can directly tap your credit/debit card to enter/exit stations. Only available in Singapore
This is available in Spain, other countries too
@@catherinehui795I have been over 38 countries & lived in 6 countries but most places don’t allow train rides to charge directly from the banks, esp not in asia or developing countries.
Vincent is a legend❤
Ppl in singapore japan korea china thailand ... are all so civilized and mindful of other's conveniences. In india people have a lot to learn and better their behavior in public.
Yes, I was thinking the same. Look at those guys in Singapore ; everyone mind their own business and lives a very good life.
But in India, people would be staring at them. So many areas in our country are still underdeveloped.
Even our capital city is filled with hooligans and drunkards these days.
If India gives priority to development of all the sections of the society, our country will be top in everything considering the resources we have.
But unfortunately, people in our country are fighting over religion.
F***k religions!
Siao long pao best eaten with a spoon (to catch the gravy if it oozes out) and a pair of chopsticks. It usually comes with a black vinegar and shredded ginger dip but you have only the vinegar. Usually you pop the bao on the spoon and drink the gravy then dip it into the vinegar and together with some shredded ginger and put it into your mouth. Heavenly!!
Some constructive feedback and fun facts
1. Only the East West (Green) Line and the North South (Red) Line have both elevated (above ground) and underground stations. All Light Rail Transit (LRT) stations indicated in grey are fully elevated (above ground). All other lines are fully underground.
2. It is normal to see such a crowd on weekends at around 1:13 and 2:47, because people have more time to spare on weekends.
3. The 'massive buildings' that you mentioned and filmed at 8:33 is actually a block of flats, which is a place of residence for local Singaporeans.
4. The soy sauce that you mentioned at 16:20 is actually a type of Chinese black vinegar called Chinkiang Vinegar or Zhenjiang Vinegar.
5. It is necessary to eat Xiao Long Bao with chopsticks and a spoon. You first pick up a Xiao Long Bao from the basket and place it on the spoon. You will have to nip a hole at the side of the Xiao Long Bao on the spoon, then tilt the Xiao Long Bao such that the hole is facing the spoon to get all the flavourful broth out onto the spoon. Drink the broth first. After drinking the broth, dip the Xiao Long Bao into the Chinkiang Vinegar and enjoy it together with ginger slices.
6. From what I saw at 15:57, the stall owner was bringing the container of ginger into the kitchen. If you wanted the ginger, you can kindly ask the stall assistant for the ginger. Generally, people will first take their desired amount of ginger slices, then pour the vinegar over and allow the ginger to absorb some of the vinegar taste.
7. At 20:41, the coffee uncle adds the hot water to your kopi, which has condensed milk. If you want your coffee to be thicker, say 'Kopi Gao', where less hot water is added. If you want super concentrated full-on strength coffee, say 'Kopi Ti Loh'. 'Ti Loh' means pour all the way, which means without the additional hot water at 20:41.
Thanks for the information that’s so cool! Also, coffee uncle is a saying I will take away now😅
Chinatown:-
Chinatown Singapore is famous for a lot of things such as Sri Mariamman Temple, Pinnacle@Duxton Skybridge, Buddha Tooth Relic Temple, Singapore City Gallery, Chinatown Street Market, Red Dot Design Museum, Thian Hock Keng Temple, NUS Baba House, etc. Lovers of culture looking to immerse themselves in Singapore's rich, multi-ethnic culture will find no better place than Chinatown. This beautiful district is the only Chinatown in the world to boast a Buddhist temple, mosque and Hindu temple along a single street.
You guys are my favourite vloggers now on UA-cam...love the content. Keep it going ❤
The hole in the old Chinese coins was to string them. There were some advantages of this. Firstly, loose coins could be easily dropped, and the loss would not be immediately noticeable. So tying all your coins with a piece of string was a way of keeping them all together, and as long as you could feel the weight, you knew your money was safe. Some people would even string it around their neck for even greater safety and also to keep it hidden under their clothing.
Hello from Australia! OMG! Those dumplings looked delicious. Thanks for another exciting adventure!
They were super good😁😁 so glad you enjoyed the video😁❤️
You should eat xiaolongbao with both chopsticks and a spoon. Also you need to be careful as the soup is very hot. We usually eat with a side condiment of black vinegar and shredded ginger
Wow what a vibe in your videos 🥰
You're from South Africa. I enjoy listening to Theuns Jordaan (RIP) and Juanita du Plessis
You could have used Visa or Mastercard to tap for your public bus and MRT rides in Singapore.
Another lovely video. Vincent seems like such a nice guy! ❤😂
What a legend😁😁 love meeting people along the way😁
I am from the US, San Francisco area specifically by the way, but originally from India. I Have been to Cape Town and Johannesberg, loved it, Kruger safari is amazing!!
lived in Chinatown for almost 2 years; it is a great place and i would've recommended a few places but didn't catch you guys in time!
Welcome to my country Singapore 🇸🇬. Please make your video safety. 😅Blessing, hope u enjoy your holiday here. 😉😂
One can use the Visa or Master Card to pay the fare. So, there is no need to purchase a card for travel in a MRT or bus or taxi.
Interesting, awesome and splendid ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
So positive couple. ❤❤. Love from india. be happy ❤🎉
Vincent is a legend! 😎🤙🏼
Welcome to Singapore. Safe Travel Brother ❤
Glad you guys enjoyed the Xiao Long Bao - but y'all didn't get to enjoy it the authentic way.
Should've gotten spoons as there's soup in each dumpling. What many people do is bite off or poke a corner/hole and sip some broth first. Then put black vinegar (not soy sauce) and some finely sliced ginger on your dumpling and eat it.
I was wondering why it wasn't hot for you when you put the entire dumpling in your mouth lol
You guys are killing it! Love from SA living in London 💪🏻
Love the videos!!!
Great to know Buddymoon is in singapore !!! I must tell you to try Chicken Rice here in singpaore.
You should definitely visit Little India in Singapore as well
You should take a look at the Buddha Tooth relic temple when you were there. Also the Maxwell hawker centre. Agree on the egg tarts - those are my go to as well.
Enjoy your journey! 🌸
Thank you! Will do!😀
Vincent is a legend.
Also, come to Perth Australia if you want the hear more beeping pedestrian traffic lights 😀
We just filmed here! Great video! 🎉
The sauce is black vinegar for siao long pau.
Ahhh kaya toast is the breakfast you should try in sg! What a miss!
3 for 10 3 for 10, still remember when I got a chance to visit Singapore, great city, very organized and clean. The bamboo cake actually called kue putu in Indonesia. And my wife craving that when she pregnant with our 2nd kid. I go around to look and found kue dongkal near market at my house , I ask her if she want that as subs (basically the same but with different look). She wont and insist for kue putu, amazingly when I tried to go home, just not long after I hear the signature sound of kue putu stall and he actually want to go the the market. I bought some and mission accomplished
Buddy Excellent Enjoyment video
Luv buddy moon ❤
Luv Singapore ❤
Luv from India ❤🇮🇳

The $1400 for your BuddyMoon tour, is it in US$? I am from Singapore. So where do I depart from? Does the cost includes from departure from home country and vice versa
Hi, The tour does not include flights 😀 This is because we never know where people are flying from. But it includes 21 Activites, All transport in Thailand (Incl airport transfer), 14 Meals and 4-star resort accommodation 😀 would love you have you join us :)
10/10 for Danny's Singapore accent. One thing you need to add at the end of the sentence is..." lah " which I'm sure that you've heard every time when the locals speak 😅😊
That's the older generation though
Younger generation speak less lah nowadays.
@@cocaineminor4420 ha ha
hahahahaha knew i nailed it 😂 will be sure to add the "lah" at the end next time 😂

Hi guys... I found something different in this video. I think that's your camera lens. It's wider than usual which I noticed. It didn't feel like watching ur regular vlogs... Not bad video though. But I prefer the usual ones... Or maybe I just mis judged...
Hi Praveen😜 yes... we had the camera on the wrong setting in the beginning🤣🤣 we fixed it half way through if you noticed and all other videos will be fixed thereafter🤣
@@thebuddymoon 😂😂🤣
Noticing every details 🧐🧐😅
Your video title seems a bit confusing. BTW, I would say that where both of you want to experience more about the Chinese culture and traditions, you may come to Hong Kong.
Curious how tall are you guys?
Visit casino near gardens by the bay.... it's awesome... foreigners entre free 😉
Big fan sir and mam 😊❤
Will you travel to China next?
We would love to visit china but dont think we can fit it into this years plans😜 but its on the list for sure😁
