Belly Of A Nation

About the show:

Go behind the scenes into the lives of a group of hawkers as they navigate the year. How do they take obscure, native foods like Nasi Ulam or humble snacks like porridge, Chwee Kueh or Vadai into the spotlight and how do they convince future generations to join them, or overseas customers to appreciate Singapore’s street food? This 4-part series reveals their tears and fears and showcases the making of their food. It’s a celebration of the shared heritage of Singapore’s diverse food culture.  The third season continues with past profiles like Lee Syafiq and Debbie Yam. Meet new characters including the Abdul Wahids of Warung Parsanga and Little Red Hen, the  family in Chef Leung’s Authentic Hand milled Rice Roll, Filzah and Juhana of Gerei Nenek Obek, Alan Choong of Prawnaholics, and the mother and son team of The Original Vadai.
