20 years ago today, the horrific terror attacks on the World Trade Centre in New York City changed the world forever.
The danger to us was nearer than we imagined. We discovered among us a terrorist group that was planning similar attacks on multiple targets here. Fortunately ISD acted in time to prevent this, and subsequent attacks.
The greater threat for multi-racial and multi-religious Singapore was not physical, but whether this would damage our social cohesion. We drew on the trust built up over many years among our different communities and with the Government. Working together, we overcame powerful forces unleashed by the extremist attacks that could have pulled us apart.
The fight against terrorism is far from over. Digital media has allowed extremist ideologies to spread and poison minds. At the same time, our racial harmony is still work in progress. On the 20th anniversary of 9/11, let us resolve to fortify ourselves so that should we ever face another such test one day, we will come through again, stronger, as one united people.

Tina Keng Gallery at Frieze New York at The Shed
After a tumultuous year of an ongoing global pandemic, Frieze finally unveils its very first physical art fair since the Covid outbreak: Frieze New York at The Shed. Honored to be the only Greater Chinese representative among the 60-plus blue-chip galleries that show at the fair, Tina Keng Gallery is pleased to present Zhang Hongtu (b. 1943), Su Xiaobai (b. 1949), Yao Jui-Chung (b. 1969), and Su Meng-Hung (b. 1976). Their diverse body of work showcases contemporary artistic explorations by Greater Chinese artists in deconstructing and reconstructing traditional cultural symbolism. Unraveling the strata of history and the symbolism of artistic media, their works grapple with two-dimensional imagery and abstract space. The spirit of the brush and ink, and Eastern philosophies that permeate the practices of these artists respond to the transcultural context of contemporary art through a gaze at the culture that birthed and cradled their artistic intuition.

For this video, we went down to Wolfgang’s Steakhouse at Robertson Quay to savour a $1000 Steak Mukbang! Wolfgang’s Steakhouse, founded by Wolfgang Zweiner, specialises in 28-day dry-aged USDA Prime Black Angus Steak served in an upscale setting. Their steak is aged in their in-store dry-aging room and USDA Prime grading refers to the highest possible steak grade given by the US authorities. Dry-aging is a process where meat is placed in a controlled environment (temperature and humidity) to enhance the flavour profile and texture, creating a deep, “meaty” flavour. The ambience is exceptional with a clear view of the Singapore River, high ceilings, an expansive bar and mahogany flooring.
For my mukbang, I ordered a Porterhouse for Four ($382), Rib Eye Steak ($148), Filet Mignon ($125), Onion Rings ($20), Lobster Mac N’ Cheese ($30) and Cream of Corn ($17). For dessert, I got Key Lime Pie ($17). To pair with the steak, I also requested for a bottle of red wine. The star of the show was the enormous porterhouse steak, served on a blistering hot plate that was previously under a broiler. It contained the best of both worlds, a divinely tender filet mignon and a sumptuously flavourful strip steak. Still affixed to the bone, the whole piece was probably around 2KG of dry-aged goodness. Thanks to the dry aging process, the meat truly encapsulated the signature deep “meaty” flavour that dry aging is known for with the tenderness to match.
As for the sides, the Lobster Mac N’ Cheese never fails to impress. Whipped up with 3 types of cheeses and filled with large chunks of lobster, the side was not overpowering or too heavy as it can tend to be. It was elegantly balancing right on the precipice of too much and too little in terms of flavour. I also had my favourite dessert, Key Lime Pie. It was similarly well-balanced and I could rich notes of the condensed milk used in the batter and the fragrance of lime. The crust was a delicate biscuit base that gave some bite to the soft interior of the pie.
It will come to no surprise that this was a thoroughly enjoyable mukbang for me. The food was stellar from the wonderful dry-aged steak to the sides and dessert. Pairing the meal with an excellent glass of wine only elevated it even further. However, as I ate with Mervin, I underestimated his capacity and realised that I could have eaten significantly more. I look forward to attempting a greater challenge in the future with Wolfgang’s Steakhouse. If you are looking for a classy atmosphere, ridiculously good food and drinks to match, look no further than Wolfgang’s Steakhouse. Do head over there, especially for special occasions for your loved ones. They deserve this treat!

This week we are in Taiwan and I decided to play the role of a totally clueless white American tourist who only speaks English, and then prank locals by suddenly switching to fluent Mandarin Chinese. What an interesting social experiment with funny reactions!
This is part 1 of our language learning videos in Chinese in Taiwan — next time we will be exploring the street markets of Taipei and I’ll be putting my Chinese to the test to an even greater degree, by trying to see if people believe I grew up in China or not! Make sure to subscribe and come back for that fun video!
