One of my favourite foods. Also known as "golden pillow". I love the combo of soft bun and thick curry.

I tried one (not the one featured in your vid) with curry that wasn't very thick and it ruined the experience.

Lol I know what you mean. Actually, any curry that's watery will miss the whole point...

Wow I never knew the curry was wrapped inside plastic and then baked into the bread. Always thought they just made the bread really thick to prevent leakage. I guess I never bothered to find out because it looks quite plain on the outside.

I think it's a east vs west thing. People living in the east are more familiar with soup bcm because there are some famous stalls in the Bedok area but as far as I know, there are no soup bcm stalls in the west. My old poly friends and I discussed this before.

Taiwanese night market with a nice variety of food, including roast pork that looks amazingly crispy.

Makes sense...no wonder I have never seen soup version before.
