Results for China Foodie

The vibrant city-state of Singapore is nestled at the tip of the Malay Peninsula. This tiny island nation is a harmonious blend where tradition meets modernity. Singapore has a captivating history and rich cultural heritage that is celebrated through its diverse blend of ethnicities, languages, and religions, but most importantly its food! Singaporean food has many influences from around the world but  Malaysia, Indonesia, China, India, and the UK. It sounds so random but it's the best amalgamation of cuisines from all those countries and more. What's particularly great about Singapore is eating out is actually very cheap! Singapore is known for its Hawker Centers, think a food court but without the dodgy food, where you can usually try Singapore's best-known dishes. You have to try Hainanese Chicken Rice, Nasi Goreng, Roti Parata, Char Kuey Teow but feel free to branch out from my favorites.  I first visited Singapore when I was 6-months old. My dad was born and raised in Singapore. Whenever we go, it's one big food tour ensuring that we eat our favorites at least one time before departing. Here are some of our go-to spots, in addition to a few other places that are highly rated that I haven't had the chance to visit yet. This guide focuses on my recommendations for the best food and drinks in the Lion City but as always, I'm happy to help you plan a custom itinerary for your trip to Singapore!

🚨 20% OFF 🚨 This is a food tour that I've actually done with a few friends, so it's tried, tested, & true! It includes 7 spots that are all within walking distance of each other so it’s perfect for a fun day trip. Each spot in the crawl serves food that you can order in small amounts. That means you can try ALL of the spots in a day! 5 of them feature savory options, and the last 2 feature awesome desserts. The order of the stops makes the most sense for walking. Most of the stops in this food crawl offer Chinese food, because of the heavy Chinese influence in the Flushing area. Most people think of Manhattan’s Chinatown when they think of Chinatown in New York. However, most of the food in Manhattan Chinatown is Cantonese (and yes, it's great!). On the other hand, Flushing is Queens’ Chinatown. It's not necessarily forgotten, but it represents mainland China more. Manhattan’s Chinatown is more compressed, whereas Flushing has a lot of big food halls, grocery stores, and communities so it feels more local. I've also included a bonus map of 15 of my other favorite food spots in Flushing and nearby Murray Hill… in case you happen to still be hungry, or if you ever return to Flushing & just want to try something new! The bonus spots aren't in walking distance the way the ones in the food crawl are. But I wanted to include some food in this guide that wasn't just Chinese, to highlight the Korean, Indian, and Taiwanese demographics that also influence these neighborhoods.
