Singapore Food Tips ........................................................

  • Hi! Singapore at the cross road of Asia has undoubtedly the most varied and cosmopolitan cuisines possible. I'm not saying this because I stay here but having travelled to most continents, I find that its somewhat tacky title of 'Food Capital' (no doubt crowned by the tourism board) contains much truth in it. Asian cuisines that are well represented are Thai, Indonesian, Japanese, Cantonese, Szechuan... And its local cuisine is truly unique such as chicken rice :oP, satay (flame-grilled beef, chicken or mutton skewered on a thin stick eaten with a sweet peanut sauce and rice cakes), chilli crabs etc. Probably the only other place where u can get similar food is Malaysia but nonetheless, slight variations exist. I guess the reason why Singapore's cuisine is unique is due to the pot pourri cultures here - from the indigenous Malays to the immigrant Chinese and Indians not forgetting the British. I think there's a mention on food in my webpage listed below. It ought to be under 'Singapore's' page. Have fun!

    (Bon Appetit!)
