About this experience

Our food tours take you away from tourist traps and into our favourite local food spots. We have been running these tours since 2015 and have built up strong relationships with our vendors. We get guests closer to the action and tell the stories of the people behind the dishes as well as the dishes themselves.
We believe that a food tour should connect you to the local area so you not only enjoy new flavours but learn about the culture and history of the area and the people that make it tick.
Each of our food stops have been selected for their fantastic food as well as their importance to Singapore's food story. We only visit locally run businesses and always support our local Singapore food heros.

We will pay a visit to this colourful temple. We'll get a chance to see how food and religion mix as well as learn about the Hindu community in the area.
