Why Anthony Bourdain Changed His Mind On His Initial Monday Fish Rule
For as much love as Anthony Bourdain received for his TV shows like "Parts Unknown" and the eternally-underrated "A Cook's Tour" (Bourdain's very first travel show) his earliest claim to fame came when he wrote the book "Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly," a follow-up to his op-ed entitled "Don't Eat Before Reading This." In both writings, Bourdain gave the long-heralded advice to never order fish on Mondays — a suggestion that the chef would eventually retract years later. According to Bourdain, this change in opinion was the result of the food industry improving its standards and his own expanded worldview over the years. The beloved chef made his revised take clear in a video for Insider Tech back in 2016, where he did a complete 180 on ordering fish and admitted to his narrow worldview at the time of his early writings. "Do me one favor — eat the fish on Monday," Bourdain pleaded, "That was 16 years ago; it was a very different world [...] I was writing about the only world I knew, which was New York City markets at the time." Read more: 12 Things You Should Never Say When Ordering Steak Beyond just experiencing how different restaurants handle fish over the years, Anthony Bourdain also noted that his old fish rule is no longer applicable in the modern world, where fresh fish is an absolute must for countless restaurants across the country. Bourdain's original take on fish — which has regularly been called a myth in the years since — was accompanied by the logic that, since fish markets are closed on the weekends, the fish you get on Monday is likely days old by the time you're eating it. However, Bourdain admits that this sort of practice simply wouldn't fly in the modern day. "It's a better world. We have higher standards, we know more about food, we expect more of our food," Bourdain explained, "Everybody eats sushi now [...] We know now what good fish is, and the market has had to respond to that. It can't get away with serving us the crap they used to. We know what fish should look like and smell like." So, while Mondays still stand out as likely the worst day to visit a restaurant in general, it is certainly not because of the fish. Although, Anthony Bourdain did note that it's still important to be vigilant about what fish we eat and when. "Monday at the local fake Irish pub, they're running a mussels special — maybe that's still not such a great idea," Bourdain joked. For more food and drink goodness, join The Takeout's newsletter.

Taiwanese night market in Punggol with braised pork rice & crocs pancake till 25 May
Those living around Punggol will know that the massive Fo Guang Shan festival outside the MRT has just ended. But do you know that a mini Taiwanese night market has just started running just outside Waterway Point's East Wing at Basement 2 (just outside Fish & Co.)? Started on 16 May , this mini Taiwanese night market will run until 25 May 2025 and boasts a total of 13 F&B stalls. If it's been a while since your last vacation to Taiwan for its delicious food, this is a faster and more budget-friendly way to satiate those cravings. For those who love Taiwanese fried oyster cakes like the ones sold at Yongle Market along Dihua Street in Taipei, swing by Taiwan Ô-Á-TIí to get the Oyster Pork (S$4.50) cake. If you're not exactly an oyster fan, the stall also has 5 other flavours like Scallop Pork (S$5), Vegetable (S$3), and Octopus Pork (S$4.50). I also spotted Crocs Egg Waffles at a stall called Dong Dong Xie Ji Zan Zai. While I often see Crocs on the feet of Gen Z and Gen Alpha youths around me, I decided to try the waffles just for fun. I'm not sure if they're actually a thing in Taiwan though—I only recall seeing videos of them at a Vietnamese street stall and in Indonesia. There are 3 flavours available: Coco, Ham Cheese and Cheese Corn — all at S$6 a pair. I'm not sure why they had to add colourful rice sprinkles and butterfly-shaped marshmallows to the pancakes — maybe it's meant to entice young kids, or I'm just too old for this cutesy stuff. That said, the pancake itself was decent, with a firm texture and a savoury ham and cheese filling. Surprisingly, the sweet toppings and savoury pancake worked together better than expected. I can't imagine the sugar overload if I had gone for the Coklat Coco instead. Stinky tofu enthusiasts can enjoy 6 varieties of tofu bases such as White Stinky Tofu (S$7.50/S$9.50/S$11.50), Black Bean Stinky Tofu (S$8/S$10/S$12) and Changsha White Stinky Tofu (S$9/S$14/S$17). Next, you can choose over 13 flavours to pair with your beancurd. The options include Soup Base (Soup/More Spicy) and Soup-Filled Stinky Tofu with Garlic and Chilli (Less Spicy). Our small Changsha Black Stinky Tofu (S$10) with Speciality Pickled Vegetables Spicy Sauce was a sauceless crispy fried tofu crowned with pickled cabbage, chopped chilli and sesame seeds. I was glad that the 'stink level' was minimal and it was a crispy, delicious snack! Those who love the Taiwanese dessert popiah can visit 好事花生 for peanut ice cream rolls. For the uninitiated, they are street snacks involving popiah skin, shaved peanuts, coriander (yes, I know right?), and ice cream. We spotted ice cream flavours like Matcha, Yam, Strawberry, Mint, and Double Chocolate — all at S$3 each. There's also grilled king oyster mushrooms with flavours like Lemon (S$6), (S$6), Seaweed (S$6), and Black Pepper (S$6). You can also enjoy sweet, chewy Sweet Potato Balls (S$5 for 10 pieces) and fire-grilled beef cubes such as Cheesy Beef (S$13), Nacho Beef (S$13). We also discovered Shark Fin Soup (S$2.50), and Braised Pork Rice (S$5.50). Quench your thirst at 3% Taiwanese-Style Milk Tea with varieties like Milk Tea (S$4 for 500ml, S$5 for 700ml) and White Peach Milk Tea (S$4 for 500ml, S$5 for 700ml). If you're at Waterway Point for whatever reason, why not drop by this mini Taiwanese night market and check out what they have to offer.
