Singapore is famed for its delicious street food cuisine, which has led it to become Southeast Asia's leading culinary destination. Its many hawker centres incorporate the culinary secrets from across the globe with a delicious Singaporean twist.
If you see these delicious looking bites that are skewered on sticks, know that you're looking at satay, a palatable dish of street food in Singapore. This dish is known to have its origins lying in Indonesia, although it couldn't be more accessible and highly sought-after in Singapore. The myriad of hawker centres in the country has a high demand for these succulent eatables, which are basically meat grilled with the help of wood or charcoal fire. You'll be served satay along with a mixture of peanut and soy sauces that would burst flavours of joy on your taste buds. Notice that the skewers are fashioned out from bamboo or a coconut palm's midrib.
Hainanese Chicken Rish is yet another popular street food at the many hawker centres sprawled across in Singapore, the origins of which can be traced back to the Hainan Province in China. It was gifted to Singaporeans by the Chinese immigrants that have settled in the country ages ago. This appetising dish is a flavoursome blend of seasoned rice and poached chicken. Before diving into the inviting aromas of this dish, it is recommended that you garnish it with slices of cucumber and chilli sauce.
Kaya Toast is a match made in heaven with its perfect pairing of creamy coconut milk, eggs, pandan, a sprinkling of sugar, and a sheen of butter. This luscious street food dish of Singapore is incredibly dedicated to creating swirls of deliciousness on your taste buds. A unique take on the typical toast and eggs, Kaya toast sets itself apart by the infusion of Kaya, a flavourful coconut jam that brings out the signatory flavour of this dish. It has a long history as a staple food in Singapore. Some find that tossing a soft-boiled egg over Kaya Toast adds to its already pulsating flavour. Garnish with some dark soy sauce and white pepper before you bite into this taste-filled street food of Singapore.
While you're holidaying at properties such as PARKROYAL on Kitchener Road Singapore, one of the best street food to grab is the chilli crab! This marvellous dish literally pays homage to the national cuisine of Singapore with its appetising appearance. Showered in sweet and spicy sauce, it is indeed delicious as it looks. It was once hailed as one of the most delicious foods in the world.
A type of stir-fried, flat noodle dish, Char Kway Teow, has a high demand in many Southeast Asian countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, and especially in Singapore! It is considered as a national favourite in Singapore and can be found in almost all hawker centres in the country. You can even order a delectable dish of Char Kway Teow even when you're at the comforts of one of the suites in Singapore offered by many luxury properties. It is served on a banana leaf in order to make this dish more aromatic.
