Geylang contains a vast array of Singaporean delicacies, such as unique local wonton noodle dishes, frog porridge and all sorts of other things fried, boiled and secreted away among the Lorong side streets. It’s a culinary cacophony that takes in Chinese and Indian flavors and it’s always a great food adventure. The best way to tackle it is to eat your way through it picking up a different item and a refreshment at the stalls that tickle your fancy.

Singapore’s Chinatown with its colourful Peranakan shop-houses and historical attractions, makes for an interesting visit every time I go there. Essentially, it’s divided into four main districts which are Kreta Ayer, Telok Ayer, Tanjong Pagar and Bukit Pasoh. The main center where a lot of the action goes down is on Smith and Pagoda Streets.

This veritable treasure trove of Hawker Stalls has been in operation since 1971. With its loud and boisterous stall owners touting their wares and the energetic vibe of the central outdoor eating area this one place that should be on every foodies Singapore bucket list.
