  Speaker 1: and Joakim on the shock circuit, and it's pretty much
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the weekend. Woo! One more day of work to do
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: and then tomorrow you can rest. I'd like to count
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: things and round it up, you know, make it quick.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: Happy end of April people. Yeah, exactly. Hope you have
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: a good start to your morning. Stay tuned. Singapore's number
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: one hit music station.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but the music video
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: for this song just dropped and because I haven't watched
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: The Devil Wears Prada 2 just yet, I'm watching with
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: my girlies next week.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: Sorry, make an appointment to watch it with the girls cinema.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. I apologize in advance. No, because there
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: was actually like some screenings and a premiere just last, uh,
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: just a few days ago, but I, this is the
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: kind of show I want to watch with my friends,
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, and we all love The Devil Wears Pradas,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: really just so iconic.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: If I'm not wrong, this might be a signature song
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: from the soundtrack of the movie because in the music video,
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: they did showcase a, a prop on the, on the
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: set of their MV that looks like the shoe of
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: the Devil Wears Prada, like the red shoe with the
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: devil fork for the heel. Yeah, that's the iconic, you know,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: signature shoe for the show. All I know about the
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: latest movie is apparently Sydney Sweeney was in it.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: But then they cut the scenes entirely. That's what I heard.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: That was a rumor. Is it proven? Is it true?
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. Loads of movies are saying
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: that the hatred towards Sydney Sweeney. I mean, I, I
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: get why. I don't know. People just seem irritated with
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: her in general. That's why I'm wondering who did she
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: annoy or who did she wrong because this is starting
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: to sound like the Megan Fox and Michael Bay situation. Yes,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: that and she's currently dating Scooter Braun.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Do you know this? Yeah, it makes sense now. She's
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: dating Scooter Braun, so people were saying things like, ah yeah,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: they deserve each other. Here we go. Oh man, sometimes
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: the Hollywood tea can be pretty piping hot. Are you
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: doing OK, man? I'm OK. OK.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: All I can say is that my stomach was laboring today.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: I thought I was gonna say, I thought you were
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: gonna say, I just pity the next person that's going in. OK,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: never mind. OK, I don't want to go into too
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: much detail. True, true, true, but it doesn't smell bad.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: It's OK. OK, alright. Um, anyway, earlier on I said,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: you know, if you're tuning in now, chances are all
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: of us have used Pay now at least once in
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: our lives. In fact, I think some of us even
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: use it multiple times a week or maybe if you
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: run a business, you use it every day.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: For now, yeah, I mean with hawker stall the QR
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: codes you might use it as well. We also use
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: it over here at our Mediacorp canteen I don't think
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: you've seen the revamped one actually. Is it any good?
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: OK, anyway.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Let's just say I might not be using Pay now
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: there anytime soon. One and done. OK. Um, so as
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: you know, there's that nickname feature on Pay now, right?
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: You can actually like leave like, I don't know, like
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: an initial or like some sort of your name or
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: or whatever you wanna put over there. Um, it's going
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: to cease from the 6th of June 2026. Here's the
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: reason why.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: There's been a lot of impersonation scams as a result
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: of the nickname feature on Pay now. Do you even
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: use the nickname feature actually? No, you don't, is it?
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Not that I remember. Hm, OK, because you can, you
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: can if you want, just as a joke or like
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: you want to indicate something or what, but um I
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: think only now, only selected letters of your, the payee's
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: name will be shown to the payer.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: This is more of like a safety feature maybe, yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: just to show like, OK, this is definitely, this is
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: definitely the person or SNC that's me. So I mean,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I'm glad they're strengthening protection against, you know, impersonation, scams
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: and all that. So yeah, only selected letters, just take note,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: only selected letters of the payee's name will be featured
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: to safeguard privacy.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Always, before you click on a link or click reply
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: on an email, check the sender's address first if you
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: are running a business that is very dependent on payments, right?
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: In fact, I use it a lot like even for
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: my manicurist, uh, what else, even some bills that you pay,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: you can use Pay. Honestly, I'm more of a person
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: you can.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go. Yeah, but just something to update
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: you on, just no action on your end. Don't worry,
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: just proceed as per normal. Um, this is more of
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: like if you are receiving a lot of payments, especially
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: if you're running a business. There we go. Thursday, it
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: being pretty much almost a weekend since we've got a
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: long one, we've got a ticket blitz coming right up

  Speaker 1: I think the marketing industry here in Singapore. Oh, like those, um,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: like best campaign of 2025 it was the marquees. Oh, yes, yes,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: if I'm not wrong. I think our friends at CNA
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: actually won something if I'm not wrong, yeah, and I
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: think uh the agency that handles LTA.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: OK, they want something. They've won a couple of things. Congratulations,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: fantastic work. Uh, TripAdvisor, they also had the 2026 Traveler's
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Choice Awards when it comes to the top attractions in
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: the world, in the world, in the world, not just
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: in Singapore, but in the world. What's the one thing
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: you want to see the most in your lifetime, Sonia? Wow, um.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: I, I think I would love to see, I would
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: love to see the Northern Lights. I, I don't think
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: that's considered, that's a natural thing, you know, Niagara Falls,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: I've never seen that in my life. So I would
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: love to see that too. Oh, you said it right
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Niagara Falls, Nigeria Falls, a long time ago. It's not there.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: When we come back, Gardens by the Bay.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Has made top 10. 0, really? Find out where we rank.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Oh man, in just a video on the show. I
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: can only hope it's somewhere up there. They deserve it.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Talking about attractions in the world and where Singapore is positioned. Yeah,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: so for TripAdvisor 2026 Traveler's Choice Awards, shall I give
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: you the top two first, Sonia? Top two, top two. OK, sure.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: OK. In first place, the Royal Yacht Britannia in Edinburgh
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: that used to be the monarch, the English monarch's yacht,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: till never heard of this 1997. If you watch The Crown, oh,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: you have definitely seen the Queen take the yacht and
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: all that. So you're talking about attractions that are not,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: I would say like natural.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Is that what you mean? It could be it could
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: be man-made or natural, I think, OK, because the Cayman
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: Islands is considered as well. OK, so it's mixed up. OK.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: In second place, it's in Barcelona, the Basilica de la
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Sagrada Familia. Yeah, I've been there before. It was still
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: not complete when I went there. Did you go in? Um, yeah,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: of course, of course, of course, we have to go in.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: It's just the exterior, you know.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: The whole history of it is that they really took
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: like I don't know how many years to complete it, right? Yeah,
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: thanks to Gaudi and all that. In 3rd place, are
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: you ready? Gardens by the Bay. We made it in
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: 3rd place in the world. Yeah, we beat places like
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: the Empire State Building, who's 4th, Cayman Islands, who's 5th,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: and the Eiffel Tower. Wow, that's 8th.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: So in the comment section, ah, some skeptical people are going, uh,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: how did Gardens by the Bay beat the Eiffel Tower? OK, OK,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: I have to, I have to defend Singapore for this one.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: I want to defend Singapore, I, I want to defend Singapore.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Let's hear your defense. I've, I've been to Paris and
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: seen the Eiffel Tower, and at that point, it was
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: such a big novelty because, um, it was my first
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: trip to Paris. It was a work trip. Everyone, I,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: I always remember this very clearly, everyone on that work trip, um.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: Have had been to Paris before, except, except me and
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: my photographer. So it was our first time, right? Um,
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: nobody wanted to go see the Eiffel Tower because they
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: said they already saw it like a million times, and
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: they said no need lah, no need to go and
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: see it. But I said, you know what, it's my
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: first time. I'm still going to go see it. It
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: was beautiful. At night, there was this light show and
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: everything which people find, some people may find tacky. I
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: think the Parisians themselves find it a bit tacky, but
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: It's the kind of thing where I see it once
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: and I think I'm pretty much done. And OK, if
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: there are any French people tuned in, I'm pretty sure
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying is a fact, OK? The closer you
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: get to the Eiffel Tower, you will see loads of
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: litter on the sidewalks. You'll see all the tourist scammers
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: and for some strange reason, it smells very bad. I
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: think you know why it smells bad, but it's OK.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: We won't go into it. But I, I think it's just.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: OK, a lot goes into an attraction. I mean, yes,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: it is, it is very iconic and it will continue
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: to be iconic, not just the Eiffel Tower, but other,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: other attractions in the world. Empire State Building included as well,
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: featured in so many big movies and shows, but I
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: think it also comes down to how we take care
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: of the attraction. That is exactly the point. So I
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: wonder if they took that into consideration as well when
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: it came to this survey. So February 1st of last
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: year to 31st.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Of this year, what happened was they took tourist reviews
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: of the quality and quantity of these places. Yeah, so
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: with Gardens by the Bay ranking in 3rd spot, of course,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Singapore is a clean city. Please keep it clean to
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: our friends in Singapore and not from Singapore as well.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: And then Gardens by the way, it's loads of greenery.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: You got the flower domes, you've got different kinds of exhibitions.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Apparently now they're having a tulip mania. Oh nice. And
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: then you got the man-made super tree grove as well.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: It's beautiful. It is beautiful. And I think not, not
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: that we're, we're not paid by STB to say this,
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: by the way, we're just genuinely saying this when I
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: watch those like reels or TikToks where tourists from other
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: countries go like, why can't more countries be like Singapore
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: and then they cut to a montage of how like
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: our architecture merges with nature and because we are not
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: naturally nature-filled, you know what I mean? In, in the
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: sense that yes, there are areas that are natural, but
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: we've had.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: To our forefathers have had to like go through a
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: lot of effort to make sure that it's a garden city, right,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: which just goes to show how much foresight he had.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: So congratulations to Gardens by the Bay. Well deserved, well deserved, honestly,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't have had it any other way. Maybe first
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: place next year. How do we top the La Sagrada Familia? OK,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: that one a little bit, a bit difficult. OK, I'll,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: I'll place is still good enough. Maybe the yacht yacht.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Sonia and Joakim here with you. Thanks for joining us
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: this morning. Sorry, panting a little bit. I just ran
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: back to the studio. OK. Anyway, um, earlier on, I
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: was asking you in the past when you were in
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: primary or secondary school, roughly how many students were there
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: in your class? You said about 40, right? Yeah, about
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: maybe 35 to 40. Yes, likewise, same, um, but I
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: have a feeling that that might decrease in number or
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: it maybe already has.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you're a teacher in school right now,
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: or you have experience in education. Let us know whether
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: classes have gotten much smaller, um, but the primary one
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: intake for most primary schools in Singapore will be gradually
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: reduced over the next few years, and this is no
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: surprise because why our birth rates are declining very badly
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: and um.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: I feel Joakim, you and I are part of the
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: generation that's responsible for that. It's OK lah. We have
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Natasha helping us. That's true. That is true, very true. She's, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: she's on two right now, so she's already made up
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: for both of us at this point. So this will
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: apply for the 2026 primary one registration exercise. It starts
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: on the 30th of June for the 2027 admission. I mean, look,
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: it's not like we have to worry about this right now,
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: but
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Um, I, I just wonder like, by the time we
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: have kids, how many, like how many students will there
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: be in a class at that time? I'm trying to
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: see the flip side to this. I feel as if, yes,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: I know in the bigger picture our TFR, total fertility
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: rate is really going down to the point where
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: I think yesterday in the press you see like all
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: the ministers and MPs coming together saying it's a very
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: serious situation another task force. Just kidding, um, but for
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: the teachers with a reduced class size.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: It could be good for them, you know. It could
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: be they could give maybe what, 25 or 30 students
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: now more focus, and it's not as big as a
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: class of 40. I think one of the main issues
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: as well is that there will always be those schools, right,
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: that people want to enroll their kids in, um, and
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: I think overall our friends at MOE are encouraging families
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: to consider a range of schools. I'm thinking that's the
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: reason why like.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: Try not to all gun from the same school. I mean,
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: each school has their own strengths. You know what's my
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: favorite comment whenever it's kind of these kind of things
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: on social media? My favorite comment is you do first lah. No, really, I,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: I think as Singaporeans, right, we have that mentality. OK,
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: you're saying this, you go and do first, then we
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: follow your lead.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Hm, so we're followers a little, no, a little bit,
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: because if people are, if the people who are setting rules,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: saying that, oh, please go and look for other options, right,
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: as a, as someone who has to follow the rules,
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: I want to see some leading by example. Yeah, yeah, OK,
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: well that, that's a good point. I mean, I did
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: think about it also like in the future if I
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: have a girl, right, like I definitely want her to
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: go to Saint Anthony's even though it's not, look, I mean,
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: it's not like the top.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Five elite schools, you know, in Singapore or whatever, but
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: I actually strongly believe that it's sometimes down to the
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: values and stuff that they impart, right? But also because
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: you were a girl, I know you naturally feel comfortable
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: with that place already. Would you, would you, for example,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: if Anthony's really no space, would you want to put, OK,
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: I'm just thinking of schools in the East, uh, C
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: H I, why not? I mean, although I have no affiliation,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: IJ girl, but not the one in Katong. Yeah, OK,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: so I almost went if I didn't make it into
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Saint Anthony's Secondary because there's an affiliation, but you know,
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: it can only help you that much, right? Um, I
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: was worried. I think my parents were kind of worried
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: that I wasn't going to study very much for exams. Um,
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: my other choices were around the area. In fact, like
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: places like I think Bedok Green or Bedok, what was
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: the other one? Bedok View Bedok View. I can't remember.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: Green and Bedok something else, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: it will be one of those because it's near proximity wise,
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: there we go, but uh it may have been a
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: different experience because they're all co ed schools, so yeah,
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: it's different. I, I really enjoyed my time in a
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: co ed school. I'm sure you did Choon Secondary in
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Ang Mo Kio. No, really, I think because of the,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: of the racial diversity as well, we learn a lot.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: I'm a walking poster for racial harmony. Then we are walking.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: 87 Secret.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: That sound.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: Hi, this is Fiona. Did I get through? Yes, you did. Fiona,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: welcome to the game. How are you feeling today about
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: your answer? I'm a little bit nervous, excited. OK, Fiona,
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: you've been tuned in for the last 2 months. You've
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: heard all the wrong guesses. Firstly, where are you calling
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: us from? I'm actually in the car going to work now.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Are you with anyone else in the car? I'm with
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: my husband.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: OK, I bet both of them are crossing their fingers
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: right now. So it split both ways or the entire
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: prize money going to you if you win it?
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: I mean, for the
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: whole family. For
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: the whole family. OK, she's she's very thoughtful. OK. Listen
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: very carefully. This is the sound you have to identify.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Fiona, for $10,000 what is a 987's secret sound? Is
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: it the turning of a salt or pepper grinder?
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: You are incorrect. Your chance to play 987's secret sound continues.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: that
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: Not the answer boss Janice is looking for, but Fiona,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: at least her guess is very in line with the clues. Yeah,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: she's getting warmer hopefully. Yes. Well, the unfortunate thing is
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: Joakim and I, you know, we don't know the answer,
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: so we're just going with boss Janice at this point. Yeah. Anyway,
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: keep trying, OK, Fiona, have a great day.
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: Alright. Thank
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: you very much.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: One guess win big.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: What's that? But Joe's been having a bit of um
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: tummy issues this morning. He keeps rushing out of the studio.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna kick it off first, OK. Opening
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: up phone lines, 669-11987. This happened to me just yesterday.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: Now, near my place, and if you know by now
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: I live in the East Coast area, so if you
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: live in the East Coast as well, you would know
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: that there's this coffee shop in Siglap, OK, that I,
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: I often go to. You might have seen me there before.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: I know some people wave to me there sometimes. Um,
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: this coffee shop is right next to a supermarket, OK?
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: And there's my favorite mala shop of all time, like
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: a mala Xiankuo shop in this, huh, Joakim's back. OK,
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: are you OK, brother? I live.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: I literally just said that you've been having tummy issues
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: the whole morning. Yeah, it is just not cooperating today, man. Man, sorry, dude,
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: I had to say it on air. It's OK. No,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: it happens to the best of us. We're only human. Ow,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: it's cramping. Literally just walked in anyway. I just started
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: telling a story of what happened yesterday. So I was
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: saying that, um, near my place in East Coast is
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: my favorite Mala Xiankuo shop, which I don't think.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: You want to think about right now, you can't think
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: about right now, yeah, some chicken porridge. So, so anyway, um,
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: I always go to this Malaysiankwaa shop, OK, and the,
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: the guy, he's from China, he makes the most legit,
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: it's so tasty, and it's not oily, you know, it's
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: just very fragrant and flavorful. It. It hits different, yeah.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: So I've recommended this Mala Xiankwaa shop to a lot
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: of my friends who live around the area or they
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: like mala, right?
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: So, yesterday, um, I was in a rush and uh
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: I couldn't drive down or walk down to go buy food.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: So I decided to order it on Grab, OK?
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: And um it was because also Germs was going to
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: stop by because he had a flight to catch, so
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: he was like, OK, I'm just gonna eat and go.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: So I said, OK, I'll just, I'll just order here, um,
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: place a group order. OK. So when I placed a
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: group order, you know, both of us can select your
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: ingredients like, like a yongtafu situation, right? And typically nothing
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: ever goes wrong when I do this. I've ordered it
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: a couple of times on, on Grab, you know.
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: And it was very clear that he ordered on his side.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: It was tagged to his name and then tagged to
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: my name on the other side. So I just checked.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: I made sure, OK, because he cannot take spice. Oh no. Yeah,
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: so he went with no spice and I went with Zhongla,
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: like medium spice, OK.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: I, I, I know you know where this is going
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: for someone who can't take spice could be a volcano,
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: I know in your digestive system, and I, I sometimes
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: go tala, but because if it's dinner, like I don't
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: really want to go too spicy just because it ruins
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: the flavor sometimes. is the dinosaur. That's it. Anyway, so
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: then we were so hungry waiting for the food to arrive, right?
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Food arrives. The moment I opened the box, I knew
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: something was off already.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: Because you know me, I order all the useless things
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: like cheese tofu, crab steak, all that, right? And you know,
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: Jeremy is like a health nut. He will never eat
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: these things, vegetables and some meat. He will order protein
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: and everything. Everything got mixed up. So like, basically my
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: cheese tofu with his mushroom was in like his box
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: and then his broccoli and like his other protein stuff
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: in my box, which was the Tongla one.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: To which we both looked at the box, looked at
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: each other, we're like, Aiya, why? Why did he get
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: it wrong? It was very clear. Like, I don't, I
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: wonder whether there was some problem with the way the
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: order was printed out or something. Either that or maybe
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: he was rushing, rushing a few orders. He's never gotten
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: it wrong. Like this is my bro. This is my mala, bro.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: He never gets it wrong. Just one bad day out
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: of 99.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: I know. So I think unfortunately for germs, like the
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: ingredients that were in the, in my box, it was
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: too spicy for him. Like after a few bites, he
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: was like, OK, OK, I cannot. I need some ice
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: water like right now. No, no, don't drink ice water.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: I know it makes it worse. Drink milk. I have
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: no milk at home. What do I, what do I
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: drink milk for? Like I don't need to, I can't
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: grow anymore.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: That's also quite true. I don't have any fresh milk
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: at home. Maybe have milk on standby for cases like
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: this for him. Yeah, like a small bottle, you know.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: I can train him to take spice. So yeah, just
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: fight fire with fire, you know. It's impossible. OK, he,
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: he has not had spice for almost his whole life. Yeah,
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: his whole life. Call us 669-11987 or drop us a
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: WhatsApp message 90050987. We're talking about food orders here today, OK.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: Has a shop ever gotten your order wrong and has
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: it completely ruined your meal before? Or they deliver something
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: wrongly or something dropped or like, you know, something was
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: missing or they just got your order wrong completely. Has
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: this ever happened to you before? Tell us, 669-11987 or
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: you can drop us a message 90050987 and we are
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: shipping you off to a beautiful dining experience at Keys.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: Side aisle in Sentosa. Yes, to Greenwood Fish Market. Yummy.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: We were there just last year. Yes, we were very
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: good food. Was it last year? I thought it was
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: just a few months ago. Oh, last year, the Sentosa
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: gig that we had. Oh, the sunset, yeah, I remember that. OK, well,
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: give us a call, let us know. Have you ever
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: gotten your food orders wrong before and has it ruined
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: your meal? Inspired by what happened to me just yesterday.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: Ordered from my favorite mala Xiankwaa shop of all time
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: and unfortunately he messed up the order and um I, I,
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: I got what I wanted, I think, but my partner's
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: order was messed up and he couldn't take spice, but
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: all his ingredients went to the spicy one. So I
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: think I felt a little bit bad, but I still
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: stand by my mala bro. He's the best. Yeah, again,
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: 99 days, one day. Yeah, exactly. OK, so heading to
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: WhatsApp first, what were some moments where you experienced the
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: wrong
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: Order getting sent to you saying good morning to Sarah
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: and Sarah's husband, poor thing la. OK, my husband is
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: someone who cannot tahan spicy food, like zero tolerance. OK,
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: same here. The one time we went to JB and
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: ordered nasi lemma, he suddenly felt adventurous and wanted to
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: add something extra, and I completely forgot to tell him
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: that it was super spicy. The moment he took a bite,
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: he slowly turned and looked at me. That look.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: I knew I was in trouble. Wait, you didn't know.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: I was like, Oh man, sorry, I forgot it's spicy.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: After that, our whole trip became a toilet tour. Every
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: mall we went, confirmed, I stopped by the toilet for
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: him to flush everything out. His tummy really cannot take it.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: Moral of the story, never underestimate Sambal and never trust
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: me when I say it should be OK. Actually, same, um.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: My, my friends who can't take, actually most of my
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: friends can take spices, one or two, and my own
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: partner have, they have learned to not trust what I
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: say because I think our spice tolerance is too high.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: So for us to tell someone who cannot take spice
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: is OK, we are using our barometer. It won't work.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: So now my, my way of doing things is I'll
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: just say like it's it's.
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: Spicy, it's spicy. Don't eat it. Wanna say good morning
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: to John. Oh, it happens frequently when the cooks are
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: so engaged chatting with customers or staff that despite repeating
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: the order a few times, they still get the orders wrong,
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: but I usually just accept and I eat it rather
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: than argue with them as obviously they're too busy talking
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: to listen to what I have to say. OK, wow, OK,
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: I wonder which restaurant this is.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: Can I tell us privately. Can I say something involving chefs.
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: There's a restaurant I enjoy going to over at Tanjung Paga. OK,
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say where. Let me guess later off air,
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: but you are able to see the kitchen, OK, from
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: the outside, OK. When it's nearing towards last order or
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: closing time, the chefs, I think they know, they will
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: squat down, squat down to give you the illusion that
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: the kitchen is closed already. You see them squatting. I'm
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: speculating and I'm.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: Maybe, uh, making assumptions, but I have seen this many
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: times already. So around 8:30, where it's still open for
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: Makan and the last order is only at 9, but
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: the kitchen will look empty. The stoves are off, and
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: the chefs are squatting down. Really? OK, we need someone
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: to clarify this myth. We're not going to say where
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: live on air. I will, I will guess later when
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: we turn off the mic. Tanjung Paga. You go and
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: see for yourself. OK, OK. I'm curious whether to know that's, uh,
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: that's really.
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: Tactic. It's like when they slowly turn on the lights
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: at the club, is it? Like they're trying to say
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: we're going home already or they just don't want to
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: cook after 8:30. 8:30 is still quite early though. Yeah
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: that's why maybe specific to this one. We'll find out
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: more in just a bit. OK. Stay tuned. We've got
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: a couple of callers hanging on the line and also
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: more of your messages. We've got more time for that.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: Have you ever gotten the wrong order sent to you before?
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: One night I was deciding between two of my favorites.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: stalls to order from. It took me 15 minutes to
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: decide which one to go with because both are really good.
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: In the end, I went with stall A because I
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: felt the salted egg chicken had a slight edge. I
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: was so excited for the dinner and so was my
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: husband as we were famished after work. I think you
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: know how this story ends. The order came, all the
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: food was intact, but the one food item missing was
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: the salted egg.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: Chicken. Why we went to the store the next day,
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: not to confront them, but to eat the salted egg
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: chicken that we missed. No, I hope they didn't charge
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: them for it though. Was it just, did they run out? Maybe?
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: I don't think they went there saying, Hey, wang tea
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: the tea? What, what salted egg tea in chicken and Mandarin,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: do you know? X, xian tan. Are you sure? Yes, serious, tan.
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: You sure? Yes.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: You salted egg, chicken and mandarin.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: Come on,
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: OK, yeah, I was right. I was I right? I'm,
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: I'm very impressed. Hey, what's up? It's a good day.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: I thought you were doing like a direct translation thing,
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: you know. I actually was. It just happened to be right.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: You are officially got lucky this time. The worst Chinese
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: friend I have in my life. I don't know how
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: many times you want to say that, but it's true.
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: It's true. We got Rose on the line right now.
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: What about you? Has this happened to you before?
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: Oh,
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: similar to yours because you ordered your mala, right? I
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: ordered Yong, and I love my soups and I need
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: my soups. Me too. So I was very excited. Yeah,
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: so I was very excited to get my soup.
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: And then after that, um, so I was in the
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: toilet and then my husband just left the house. So
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: then he texted me, Hey, do you order fried chicken?
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: I'm like, What are you on about? And then it's
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: the time of the month and everything, then very like distort, cranky, cranky, yeah, cranky.
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: Then I'm like, What are you talking about right now?
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: Don't talk about fried chicken. I want my soup. So
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: I got out of the toilet. I went to get
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: my order at the door. It was fried chicken.
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: No. Luckily the chair was still open, the
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: Grab chat. Oh, so you managed to fix it.
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but because I was already so cranky and upset,
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: so I went in with a very not very nice
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: tone la with the delivery
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: guys.
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: Joakim knows me very well. I, when I crave something,
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: I need it like right now to have it. Yeah,
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: in that exact way, no other way. I'm going back
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: to our messages for now. Have you ever received a
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: wrong order before? That's the question today inspired.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: By my unfortunate mala Xiankuo incident yesterday. Good morning, Derek.
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: Here is your text. Hi, Sojo. Mine was not the
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: wrong order, but delivery gone wrong. Oh no. There was
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: once I ordered fish soup with rice for my family
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: for dinner, and we were very hungry as it was
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: very late already. When the food arrived 30 minutes later,
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: the plastic container for the fish soup was half open,
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: and the soup was nowhere to be found. I thought
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: the soup was separated in other plastic.
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: Bag but also can't find the bag. Only then I
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: saw the plastic bag housing the fish soup had some
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: remnants of the soup left behind, which means it spilled
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: or the delivery guy was very thirsty and drank. Pretty
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: sure it's spilled. It has happened to me before as well. Um,
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: speaking of wrong orders, there was once I received a
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: wrong order. It was a Handaart order, OK, and typically
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: nothing goes wrong. I've had very good experiences there.
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: I think the guy must have placed the wrong order
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: from someone else in the same block on my doorstep, right?
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: It was completely not what I ordered. In fact, this
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: person ordered like truffle oil, fresh coconuts. Yeah, I was like, wow, um,
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: maybe I'll keep this. I don't mind. It's a high
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: SES meal right there. Yeah, exactly. One more coming in
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: from Hata. Morning, Sojo. 2021, we just got married and
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: we rented a room while waiting for our BTO. We can't.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: We couldn't cook at the place we rented, so we
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: ordered prata through GrabFood at 2 or 3 a.m. The
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: prata came, but without any curry. Oh no, that, that
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: is blasphemy. We were so mad we ended up eating
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: plain prata with nothing. What is prata without curry? Hata
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: I a crime. I agree. You know what else is
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: a crime? I I ordered chicken rice before. It came
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: with no chili.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: They, they forgot to pack the chili. I couldn't eat
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: the chicken, right? The one stroke tan. I'm just kidding. No,
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: I can't do it. Yeah, no. Anyway, we're back with
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: more of your stories and calls in just a bit.
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: Say good morning to Q. Hey Sonia and Jo, this
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: happened to me recently. I ordered a salad bowl last
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: week for lunch as I was craving beef. I was
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: also a little crampy from cramps, crampy from cramps. Yes, usually.
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: Usually I'll eat chicken salad for lunch, so I figured
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: I'll order a beef bowl salad instead this time. But
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: when I got my order, they forgot my beef. I
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: only had a bowl of vegetables and pumpkin. Quack, all
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: I can say is if that happens to Sone, she
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: will celebrate. I'll be fine.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: In fact, if my salad came with beef, I'll give
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: Joakim the beef. I know I'll be very happy. I'll
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: give you some. Yeah, I'll give you some. 669-11987. Yeah,
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: Ray Lin, what about you?
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: It wasn't exactly the wrong order.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: But a Grab food arrived at our, my boyfriend's doorstep,
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: and it was McDonald's, but nobody ordered it. So he
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: looked at me with the cheekiest smile. I knew immediately
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: what he was thinking. I looked at him, I told him, no,
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: wait for a week, wait for a while, maybe someone
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: will come down and pick it up. Nobody picked it up.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: We waited for around half an hour and we decided, aiyah,
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: let's just eat the nuggets.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: So you ate it. Was it the best thing ever?
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: Yes, nuggets.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: Thank you so much for joining us here today. We
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: had such a good laugh. I mean, look, this is
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: something that could have happened to any one of us, right?
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: You know, getting the wrong order, receiving the, the wrong
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: food order, that could really mess up your day. And
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: what's worse is your Chong order actually went to Jeremy.
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: You can't take spice, exactly. So that was unfortunate.
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: Poor guy. So how is his tummy after? Don't know.
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: I haven't. I didn't ask. OK, never mind. I think
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: he's fine. He should be fine. So I guess today's
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: experience to Greenwood Fish Market, it's one worth over $150
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: over at Quayside Isle. Let's give it to Ray Lin
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: who called earlier.
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: Uh, I guess Ray has a thing for free food. No, OK, look,
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: in her defense, nobody came to claim the food order. So,
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: long story short, in case you didn't hear it earlier, um,
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: they received a McDonald's order to their doorstep and they
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: didn't order anything. OK.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: To which nobody, they waited for a while, nobody came
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: to claim it. Can I, can I give one example,
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: and you tell me whether is it a crime or not, OK?
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: You know, bank transactions, for example, you know, yeah, yeah,
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: why are we not applying the same mentality with food?
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: Like wrong order return return to who? To the Grab
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: sender or the Foodpanda sender or what, right? Yeah, but OK,
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: food is perishable. Money isn't, and it's time for some
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: food news. Here we go. Do I sing it or what? Happy, happy. 123,
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: food news.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: Good news. Sonia with the good food news. Give it
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: to us, Miss Chu. What is a Les Ami? So
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: the moment I said Les Ami Group is opening this, uh,
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: Joki said, I mean it's. It is premium dining. It is,
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: and they already have that under their wing, right? So
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: now they've decided to open a casual sukiyaki joint is
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: called Sukiyaki Gin.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: With a mountain of Wagyu for just $45 joking like
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: me now, I feel so. We, we're seen for sure.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: They're taking over this tempura place called Tianjin at Shore Center.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure if you remember it, but
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: Um, there, it's their new sukiyaki concept. It is opening
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: the 2nd of May, so in a couple of days,
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: you can check it out. Tianjin will not be closing down,
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: don't worry. They're just relocating on level 3. That's all. Hey,
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: by the way, when it comes to Center, yeah, don't
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: just go to the cinemas are at. There's actually an
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: extension the other side. Yeah, there's a lot of like shops, food,
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: food and all that there are plenty of, yes, uh,
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: dining options and fashion.
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: as well. Ralph Lauren, they're there. Yeah, it's a massive
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: store over there. So the menu is kept very simple.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: They've got signature tomato sukiyaki, so tomato-based soup, which I
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: think Singaporeans would love. You can also add chili padi,
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: by the way, they are very down for that. Um,
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: chili padi on the side and original sukiyaki made from
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: their traditional shoyu sauce served with udon or rice. I
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: really think they are catering to the Singaporean taste buds here, so.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: Don't worry, they have your spice needs covered. OK, yeah,
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: so Jeremy can't go, I guess. He can have the
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: non-spicy one. But yeah, um, they open once again 2nd
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: of May at level one. Their unit number is very nice.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: It's 111. Wow.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: 111 Shaw Center on 1 Scots Road. Like, wow, seriously,
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: this is just good juju. They should have opened tomorrow,
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: the 1st of May, another one. No, but it could
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: be like a fetu thing, yeah, sometimes they have to
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: pick the right date and I don't know what. So
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: 2nd of May is a Saturday, so Saturday, yeah.
