About this experience

Go on a gastronomic journey of Singapore’s street food in Chinatown, a lively area that effortlessly blends old traditions and new styles.

At 5 pm, start your culinary adventure with a succulent meat snack grilled over charcoal that follows a secret recipe which has been passed down for generations. Then sample a savoury "carrot cake" or Char Keow Teow, a popular side dish that stands out due to its simple yet flavourful ingredients.

For the main course, indulge in the scrumptious dish of soya sauce chicken with rice and peanuts from the first Michelin Star Hawker stall in Singapore.

End the excursion with a decadent treat at a renowned dessert shop. After the tour wraps up, you can return to your hotel from Chinatown MRT Station.
