Your Singapore food fest will begin at the Chinatown complex, the largest hawker centre in Singapore, with over 226 stalls. With all those options, you may feel a little overwhelmed, but you’ll have a knowledgeable local by your side to show you the ropes.

Your guide will introduce you to the hawker centre and help you pick out some of the most authentic, tasty Singaporean treats. Savour the famous chicken rice along with delicious poh piah (fresh spring roll). Then try some mouth-watering local Chinese delights such as chwee kueh (water rice cake) with freshly crushed, ice cold sugar cane juice.

While you chow down on your food, your local guide will be sharing with you some Singapore history, information about the city’s rich culture, and some local know-how on how this food is prepared. You’ll also learn how hawker centres came to be, and why this tradition is so close to the Singaporeans’ hearts. This tour is interactive – we encourage you to ask your local guide plenty of questions about all that you can see and taste.

We continue with our exploration of the chinatown complex with a visit to the wet market where you will find the freshest meat, sea food, vegetables and other cooking ingredients under one roof. Come face to face with exotic live produce such as frogs, eels and even turles which are all part of the Chinese delicacy for sale.
