American streamer and YouTube star IShowSpeed took to Arab Street for a day of exploration on Sep. 24.

In his YouTube livestream, he visited the Kampong Glam area and tried local foods, such as a smashed burger by local burger joint Smashed SG and teh tarik.

He was also surprised with an iPhone 16 by a fan and picked up Singlish in Chinatown.

This marks IShowSpeed's second livestream in Singapore after his failed livestream at the Universal Studios Singapore (USS) on Sep. 22.

He departed for Johor and returned to Singapore shortly after to start another round of his excursion.

Ate local smashed burger and drank teh tarik

While walking along the shophouses at Pahang Street, IShowSpeed was stopped and handed a piece of burger in a yellow box by a fan to try out.

The burger turned out to be a smashed burger from Singapore burger joint, Smashed SG.

IShowSpeed initially opened the box quizzically and took a sniff at the burger, before taking a bite seconds later.

He exclaimed as the crowd cheered: "This is honestly... good!"

Around the 13-minute mark of his livestream, a male fan stopped to hand him a box, which contained an action figure of the anime character, Luffy, from "One Piece", clad in a Brazilian football jersey.

IShowSpeed is known to be a fan of the character.

He was then surprised by the same fan, who gifted him an iPhone 16.

IShowSpeed turned on the phone to make sure it was working and also confirmed with the fan that it was a gift.

He then expressed his shock by asking the camera what was going on in Singapore.

The fan, Luqmaan Hakiim, is the co-owner of the SGFR Store, which sells exported food items, such as the Prime drinks and Feastables snacks by American YouTuber Jimmy Donaldson, better known as MrBeast.

IShowSpeed then left the area on a motorcycle as fans bade him goodbye.

His livestream was still ongoing as at 7pm on Sep. 24.
