Tekka Centre

"Tekka Centre is a bustling food market and community hub located in the heart of Little India, Singapore. Originally built in 1915, it was known as the Kandang Kerbau Market and underwent renovations in 2000 to become the vibrant multicultural center it is today. The name "Tekka" is derived from the Hokkien word for "brick," reflecting the historical significance of the area. The center features a wet market on the ground floor, where vendors sell fresh produce, meat, and seafood, while the upper level houses a hawker center offering a diverse array of local dishes, including Indian, Malay, Chinese, and other cuisines. Some popular stalls include those serving biryani, roti prata, and fresh fruit juices, with prices typically ranging from SGD 3 to SGD 10, making it an affordable dining option for both locals and tourists. Tekka Centre also hosts various cultural events and festivals, celebrating the rich heritage of the Indian community in Singapore. Its vibrant atmosphere, with colorful stalls and the tantalizing aroma of food, makes it a must-visit destination for anyone looking to experience the culinary and cultural diversity of Singapore."
