What to expect

Hawker Center Hopping:

Amoy Street Food Centre: Begin your culinary voyage at Amoy Street Food Centre, a daytime bustling haven for hawker stalls offering a diverse array of local delights for the office crowd. Enjoy a tea-time snack and local beverage as we introduce the history and origins of the UNESCO hawker culture.
Lau Pa Sat: Next, head to the legendary Lau Pa Sat, a historic landmark and culinary epicentre. Gazetted as a national monument in 1973, this architectural gem has a distinctive octagonal shape built with Victorian cast-iron elements prefabricated in Europe and crafted by Walter MacFarlane & Company, an iron foundry in Glasgow, Scotland. This same foundry later made the cast-iron verandahs of Raffles Hotel in 1913.
Dive into fragrant plates of char kway teow, flat rice noodles stir-fried with savoury dark sauce and seafood, or indulge in the comforting warmth of Hainanese chicken rice, steamed chicken served with fragrant rice and a trio of dipping sauces: chilli sauce, ginger, and dark soy sauce.
Explore the vibrant stalls, each brimming with enticing aromas and colourful dishes. Savour the smoky goodness of satay, skewers of marinated meat grilled to perfection and served with a creamy peanut sauce, or tantalize your taste buds with chilli crab, a Singaporean classic where succulent crab is drenched in a sweet and spicy chilli sauce.
Don’t forget to finish your dinner with Chendol, a refreshing dessert of shaved ice, green jelly noodles, coconut milk, and palm sugar.

Marina Bay Night Walk:

As the sun dips below the horizon, immerse yourself in the captivating atmosphere of Marina Bay. Stroll along the waterfront promenade, marvelling at the city’s glittering skyline illuminated against the inky night sky. Capture a picture-perfect moment with the iconic Merlion, Singapore’s mythical half-lion, half-fish creature, and soak in the vibrant ambience of the waterfront. Remember to bring your appetite, an adventurous spirit, and a camera to capture the unforgettable memories you’ll create on this unique tour. Our foodie guide will introduce you to a lot more food than what is included, so feel free to purchase and indulge on them if your belly can take them in!
