Today I visited Tiong Bahru Galicier Pastry, one of Singapore’s most popular nonya kueh shops. Nonya kuehs are traditional instagram-worthy Peranakan snacks that can be found in Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia. I’m a big fan of Bengawansolo and I made my first visit to Galicier. Are they really good? Let’s find out together.

Oji-San, thank you for showing us this hidden Gem, doesn't know it existed. The brown kueh with coconut shaving is called Kueh Ko Swee.. Anyway, Apple Pie and Egg Tarts are not Nonya kueh, but it's good that they sell these, and they taste better as it is made with a personal touch and not by machine, like the big fanchisee.
LOL at that censorship
The egg tart had yellow colour as they could use more egg yolk when making the custard mix.
こういう地元の店行ってみたいですね。
Thanks fr recommending good food in Singapore.
Now Bengawon Solo is not so good!
But …… But Harriann's right there at the hawker centre for nonya kueh!!!! My to-go-to!!!!!
Ghib your fav green and white kueh is called kueh salat.
6:34 – 6:40 he censored himself!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Singlish : "Okay, can can". Standard English :"Okay, I'll take it".
Ghib san speaks standard English with an American accent. However, when he talks with Singaporeans, he switches to Singlish. Singaporeans should be able to switch code when speaking to foreigners.
GHIB STOP FLEXING THAT U GETTING ATTENTION FROM JAPANESE WOMEN. Time to unsub boys!! DEFINITELY NOT SALTY :")
1:36 !!
Man… Everytime I watch your videos with food. I get a new craving. Now I have to go to the nearest kueh shop.
Nonya Kueh must go along with coffee or tea not sugar cane drinks…???
Oh, the custard egg tarts are amazing!

There is Putu Ayu which is a MUST TRY for their Nonya Kueh. 😋
Hi Ghib, I notice you like Tiong Bahru quite a lot and have done a few vlog there.
It is definitely is a wonderful place to visit.
Just to share some history of the Tiong Bahru estate.
Back in the 1930s, it was also known as a Mistress slum. The locals called it “Den of Beauties (mĕi rén wō ）” 美人窝, colloquially known as “Mistress Village (èr nai chūn )” 二奶村 for housing mistresses of rich men.
Due to the high costs of flats, Crazy Rich Asian men commonly kept their second homes stashed away in Tiong Bahru.
The estate’s proximity to Great World Amusement Park also drew cabaret dancers and ‘pippa girls’ (aka prostitutes) as inhabitants of the flats with their ‘majies’ or minders.
Of course, there are more history to the estate awaiting for us to discover.😌🌼🌺
