About this episode

The hosts discuss the changing food culture in Tekka and its impact on the community, along with personal relationship dynamics and World Cup insights.

We went to Tekka for a meal and walked out disappointed. And it got us asking a bigger question. Tekka, the heart of Singapore's Little India, where generations of Indian Singaporeans have eaten and grown up is changing. New kinds of food moving in, the old feel slipping away. Jawhar and Bharath talk about what's gained and what's lost. Then it gets personal: when a relative or friend quietly distances themselves, and you bump into them outside — what do you do? Plus World Cup talk: how France cooked themselves, Spain or Argentina for the trophy, and why Brazil isn't Brazil anymore.
