Local Singapore Food to Try
Singapore’s cuisine is as ethnically diverse as its people – which is why food tripping in the city-state is a gastronomically wonderful adventure. From food carts to swanky restaurants, the following on the list are some of the top must-haves when in the Lion City.
1. Chili Crab - Dating back to 1956, this Singaporean favorite is a must-order when in the Lion City! Contrary to its name though, Chili Crab isn’t as spicy as one may think, and is more sweet and savory with fluffy crab meat.
2. Curry Puffs - This humble flaky pastry is so in demand that the couple behind J2 Famous Crispy Curry Puff find it hard to keep up with its demand on a daily basis. Limiting their production to only 500 pieces a day, this Malay snack is usually filled with a generous portion of sardines, curried potatoes, and a hard boiled egg.
3. Char Kway Teow - Considered a favorite in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Brunei, this stir-fried noodle dish is mixed with soy sauce, chilli, prawns, bean sprouts, chopped chives, slices of chinese sausage, fishcake, and more.
4. Hainanese Chicken Rice - Considered one of Singapore’s national dishes, this poached chicken dish is sold in restaurants all over the Lion City – from fancy restaurants to hawker stalls. Locals often kid that the most important part of the dish is the rice – which is cooked with chicken fat, ginger, pandan leaves, and garlic.
5. Laksa - Popular in Southeast Asia, Laksa is a spicy noodle soup made up of a base of either spicy curry coconut milk, fresh and sour tamarind, or a mix of both. It is also served with either chicken, prawn, or fish, and thick wheat noodles.
6. Oyster Omelette - The oyster lives up to its name – the fluffy omelette is made up of several small oysters, potato starch, and is then topped with chili sauce and lime.
7. Kaya Toast with Local Coffee - Kaya is a jam made from sugar, eggs, pandan leaves, and coconut milk. It’s best enjoyed spread on hot toast with butter and is usually served with a half-boiled egg and coffee.
8. Barbecued Stingray - Sambal Stingray is a barbecued stingray dish that stems from Malaysia and is exactly what its name says it is. The sambal is made up several spices, shallots, garlic, sugar, and indian walnuts.
9. Ice Kacang - The original version of this sweet treat is shaved ice topped with red beans. Nowadays, the dessert comes in a variety of colors and is topped with everything from aloe vera, nata de coco, roasted peanuts, sweet corn to evaporated milk, rose syrup – and even durian!
