Singaporean Food

The first thing I wanted to do when I landed in Singapore was to go get grub.
Met up with One and Ryukawa who took us to get some most delicious Singaporean food.
This was taken at a hawker center - cant remember where it was but it had zillions of food stalls.

Didn't take the heavy SLR and wont be doing so until I get a MacBook Air ^^;
Here we see some dessert type food.

Fresh fruit juices that don't cost an arm n leg. 2.5 Singapore dollars. Had watermelon and starfruit juice

Chee Cheong Fun. Hmmm. Wanted to explain what it was but am lousy at describing food. Its like some sort of steamed dish with a flourbase with bit of prawn and spring onions.

Been longing for some Poh Piah for years. Kagamin joins in too.
This is a thin sheet of flour that wraps nuts n vegetables.

Singaporean style Hokkien noodles - quite different from the soup base noodles that I had in Penang. Still nice though.

Chinese style Satay. Personally prefer the Chinese style but the sauce that came with the Malay style was nicer I think.

If they ask "do you want salt in that" with your starfruit juice say yes because it tastes gorgeous.

Teh Tarik - absolutely gorgeous milk tea - tastes the same as in Malaysia. I could drink this all day long and never get bored of the taste. Prefer this to PG Tips.

Its Saturday morning now and we're going to head out to eat n walk, eat n walk. Back in the evening for tweaks of slides and final rehearsals for Promax and Animax.

Think it often paired with pork intestines in the brown sauce? I love their egg + tofu with the sauce tho ^^; Once I asked for just those with the kway chap and the vender looked at me funny :P

it's flat rice sheets. i eat for it for lunch weekly. ^^;
i don't go for the intestines. usually just tau Pok (fried beancurd puff), tau kwa (seasoned tofu cubes) and braised hard-boiled eggs.

Is pork intestines bad in singapore? I ate some a few years ago in china and they tasted great.

Apparently if they didn't clean the intestines properly you'll taste... poo taste? ^^; But it's supposedly not the most healthy -- what they mean by "bad" ^^;

Definitely not bad, One of my Favs!

Agreed, I don't like anything that's an organ or performs a real function. Went to a Brazilian restaurant one time with friends and they had chicken hearts that only like 1 in 5 of us tried and he said it was incredibly tough and was surprised about it. The heart is the hardest, most constant working muscle in the body, toughens itself up all the time. =P Are intestines tough/chewy/soggy?

agreed. though he may have tried it in M'sia already. but i would definitely suggest Chilli and Black Pepper crabs at either Jumbo seafood restaurant or House of Seafood 180 along Yio Chu Kang Road. you shouldn't be missing out on such a local delicacy. and try so local desserts too. ^_^

best? i don't really agree lah. there're tons of other places that sell good seafood. i don't necessarily think Newton's the best.
as i mentioned earlier, House of Seafood 180 along Yio Chu Kang Rd would be great because of its crabs.

Okay.......but does it belong to a bigger country like China or something. Parts of Asia are really confusing at times. All I know is Japan, China, South Korea, North Korea, Phillipines, Thailand, Malaysia & India. All the other smaller parts of Asia seem like they belong to these other Asian countries.

The official languages of Singapore are English, Malay, Mandarin and Tamil.
Every group seems to speak their mother tongue but when they talk to each other it's usually in English or Singlish. English did seem to be the main language though from looking at the TV, newspapers, magazines, signs, books and menus.

Very interesting read. Would like to visit Singapore myself sometime and sample those lovely foods. Question though, I notice Danny that you bring Kagami almost everywhere you go. But since food stalls and food courts and the rigors of travelling are quite demanding, how do you avoid smudging your figure with all those oils and food grease?
You wash your Kagami daily?

I noticed the same thing. 24% (or almost 1 out of 4). I really wonder if that is how the user distribution is. Maybe Danny should make statistics and see how many unique IPs he get from each country every day.

Woot, welcome to singapore danny haha, you can give us a ring when u're here and we'll be more than happy to bring you around!
in my best Chow Yun Fatt tone... "Welcome to Singapore!" danny =)
That's definitely the Old Airport Road Food Centre. Lotsa goodies there.
Be sure to check out stalls selling your favourite Char Siew and Siew York, lotsa places selling that over here. Katong Laksa is something you shouldn't miss out too, if you have the time.
Btw, since tomorrow's a Sunday, be sure to check out the collectibles flea mkt at China Square Central. It's where most Singaporean fans go to get their fix for collectibles.
Have a good stay while you're in town, Danny =)

I was in Singapore a few times but I have yet to get off the base there. I do plan on it next time we go. Getting off the base can cost an arm and a leg sometimes but its really worth it.

Wow, it's huge~ I've never seen a place with so many food stalls before. Closest I've gotten to something similar is 2 semi-hidden food courts in Chinatown, you have to go down stairs or elevators to reach them, it was an interesting experience the first times I went :3
Food looks yummy~ but I wouldn't try anything without recommendations ^^;; I'm the type that rarely experiments with new foods, unless it's similar to something else I've tried.

Welcome to Singapore Danny! While you are enjoying the glorious food in Singapore, you might want to visit the beaches in the evening, if you have the time. The beach at East Coast Park is a good bet. ^^

ugh my comment got eaten again :/
anyway.. welcome to Singapore!
oh you should head down to Sentosa if you have time.
It's a popular tourist attraction, the real island paradise south of Singapore which can be accessed by a skytrain for just $3.
and the skytrain happens to depart from VivoCity, the largest shopping mall in Singapore.
Sentosa has the best beaches in Singapore, although it's still nothing compared to many other beaches in the world heh ><
oh but if you do intend to go there, remember to check the weather forecast because it'll probably be raining these few days.
hope you enjoy your stay here!
Artist
Yeah I really enjoyed my visit to Sentosa and watching the pink dolphins.
The beaches are nice. Imported sand, imported trees, but at least the water is original. ;)

I went to Singapore for 2 weeks in late 2006 :) Planning to go back there soon for a month (or 3). The food is delicious, I could quite happily go without a McDonalds or KFC again in my life if I lived there. Even chicken rice was really yummy and it only cost me S$3! Although that's probably gone up now. :( Oh well, at lest they still have cheap electricity bills, right?

Awesome! But... the best thing I ever tried there (when I took a trip there 2 years ago) was the "Nasi Lemak", which I'm pretty sure was what they called the one that was wrapped in the banana leaf... but afaik, anything that begins or ends with Nasi is really good around there.... Actually "Nasi" may mean rice, idk. Anyways, I'm glad you're enjoying Singapore, at least in the culinary aspects. Also, try the "Sarsi" it's like a carbonated Sarsaparilla Beverage sort of like root beer, and a bit more fragrant, I couldn't find them anywhere else, but I wouldn't miss it.

So many of that food looks very scary to me. I have food phobias and I'm so scared of the smell, taste and texture of new foods. I'm trying to get over it, but its so hard.

I had a phobia of foods from India before because of the smell and spices, but some of them turn out to be not too bad, partly because some of my co-workers are East Indians. Hopefully you can get over those phobias and enjoy foods from around the world.
Oh one more thing... Indian sweets are just melt-in-your-mouth goodness *drool*

Man those are the stable food types in SG, can't escape from them, everyone in SG will either have tasted them at least once a year or have them every month... second occurrence is definitely not good for the arteries on the long run, thats why there is also Sign boards for some stores that informs customers that you can ask for Less Oil as a healthier choice....wonder do customers in other country's give that choice to their customers?

Singapore do offer a huge variety of food, but looking at this simply makes me hungry.
After all, most singaporeans do go on food hunt every now and then, searching for great places to eat, and that's one of the many things that makes us unique. :X

oh, once you try singapore food, you can't stop getting enough of it. one of the reasons i have decided to become a permanent resident is because of all the cheap, wonderful variety of food available at your doorstep (as in, just below your house).

Just a little warning to some of you if you ever visit McDonalds in Singapore (why would you want to anyway, with so much nicer foods to eat ^^). Never, ever try and clear your tray away after eating. You would not believe the reaction I got. All these eyes watching the ang moh trying to steal the poor McDonalds girl's job. ^^;
One day I'll move to Singapore and live every otakus dream. I'll hire a mainland china girl as a maid and insist that she works in a proper maid outfit. :) I just hope my Singaporean wife won't mind too much lah.
Speaking of this, what's ur favourite food in Singapore?

Do allow me to bring to afew selection of Chilli-crab, Crayfish and Stingray stall around my place at Ang Mo Kio, located at the centre of the island. Also, do remember that..as for the foodcourt's food (Usually lacated at shopping mall with air-conditional) were somehow different in term of pricing and the taste.
Anyway enjoy ur trip in Sg yeah...

When I went over there a couple of years ago I instantly fell in love with Singapore when we went to our first Hawker center. So much variety of food and so cheap! I really miss the chicken rice!

Danny, the place you ate at was a Hawker Centre along Old Airport Road (locally called "Kallang Airport Par-Sat (Market)". That Cityzoom Minced Fish Noodle is a very iconic stall there.
