That's why very few young people are willing to continue these hawker stalls. Sad.

I was thinking either they adapted to japanese taste buds or maybe couldnt find the right ingredients.

Yeah I remember his TV show too. KF Seetoh did a good job of marketing himself because he used to accompany Anthony Bourdain quite often whenever he visited Singapore.

Yah he published a guide to local hawker food too. I think he was the first to do it? Even before blogs became popular.

Love places like this. I visited a no frills restaurant like this when I visited Korea and it ended up being one of the memorable dining experiences of my life. ![Smile Smile](https://damnlocal.sg/images/smilies/blush.png) Not just the food but also the friendliness of other diners and the boss.

My friends and I had a similar experience when travelling in Korea too. We were hungry at night so we just walked out of our airbnb and went into the first restaurant that was open. No-frills, no English, but the food was delicious and the owners were so friendly.
