Singapore's hawker food

Hawker food was certainly one of the highlights of this trip. For as cheap as $1, or $5 at most, you can explore the tastiest chicken in glutinous rice, satay, char kway teow, laksa... and the list goes on.

Here's a bit of what I ate:

Singapore's hawker food - fruit stall: attap seed sticks, pineapple, agar agar, strawberries, soursop


At the bottom of an Orchard Road shopping mall, this fruit stall had it all. Attap seed sicks, pineapple, agar agar, strawberries, soursop, red and white dragonfruit, sweet pear, papaya, apples, fresh dates, cherry tomatoes, chiku (aka sapodilla) and watermelon.

Also at the same place, there was this amazing Chilli Padi store...

The next day, we checked out another hawker centre near Bugis Street Markets. My favourite was the Nasi Lemak; the coconut rice was delicious and aromatic, the sambal sauce was perfect with the anchovies and peanuts... and the fried chicken wing and egg simply completed this yummy brunch.

On a separate day, at Smith Street Chinatown, I finally tried the fried oyster omelette. My Dad had mentioned this popular Teochew dish many times before... it was indescribably good!
