Singapore Food!

Here are a few pics of the food and places we ate in Singapore. I love hawker food. Every stall has its on speciality and it doesn;t try to do 100 dishes. Simple delicous and all something I hadnt tried before!

At the Raffles hotel. This is where the Singapore Sling was created in around 1940 I think... Still a fmous hotel and serve the same recipe! Singapore icon. Cool place, they have bowls of penuts you eat and throw the shells on the floor!




Glutinous Rice ball filled with sesame seeds and in a walnut cream... This was from the revolving restaurant that did a 360 degree view of singapore. A famous restaurant. I found it quite boring.. But was fun that I had never tried it before!



Strawberry Ice dessert... Like a hawaiin ice that you get at the beach, but covered in strawberry sauce and fresh strawberries with strawberry ice cream. Delicious on a hot night, the only bad thing was the corn and soursop that they put down the bottom! Its in most desserts but for me corn in a dessert is strange!


This was the street market near our hotel. They close down the street at night time and all the satay stalls open up, you get to sit at a table and thy bring cheap satay sticks to your table. Awesome experience




Enough said....!



At another hawker centre for lunch. Had this amazing chilli beef dish. Such a tiny place but they turn out awesome food. The beef was boiled until it fell apart and was comined with carrot, cucumber and hot chilli sauce like a stir-fry!

  1. Hi Eamon, It's Gary. In the Asian Legend it is said when you ate the peanuts and threw the shells on the it means wealth will come to you or the reataurant. It might sound weird but it's the same story when you have a dog in your house or in a restaurant it is likely to bring you luck and also wealth.
