Hallo, it's Uncle Roger!
Today, Uncle Roger gonna work at my friend's restaurant.
It's called Mei Mei
And Uncle Roger need a job because I'm running out of money.
And I need money to buy rice.
Looks like this is the restaurant I'm supposed to work at.
but I don't know why they can call this restaurant.
If you take a look,
No door, no table. Only one chair and they call this restaurant.
Shutter not even fully open.
I think this restaurant gonna go out of business soon..
So this is my friend, Liz, who is the boss of this..
ｒｅｓｔａｕｒａｎｔ.
Tell our viewers, what is this restaurant?
This restaurant is based on a Singaporean kopi tiam.
So we specialize in Hainanese chicken rice and nasi lemak.
All things I missed from home.
Uncle Roger think Malaysian food better but..
Huh.
Some people don't like good thing.
You're in for a very hard day work.
Is your food good?
Very good!
Do you use MSG?
No.
No?
Because it tastes good already without it.
So many spices but really no MSG.
Hmmmm~
So tender, so moist. Opposite of Auntie Helen.
Uncle Roger don't like induction stove.
Liz, why you use induction stove? Where is the fire?
This costs 30 grand.
30 grand for no fire..
