Description
Off the Menu: Singapore Authentic Food Tour with a Local Student
If you’ve ever googled the “Must-eats” of Singapore, you would already be familiar with the typical fare - chicken rice, carrot cake, roti prata, satay etc. Most tours bring you to try these touristy dishes, dishes you already knew about and could probably find yourself. What I am offering is something different from the usual tourist fare, something “Off the Menu”. If you are looking for a truly authentic culinary experience, you have come to the right place.
No one knows Singapore’s food better than a local himself. My tours are intimate, personal, and designed to make you feel like you're eating with a local friend, far beyond the typical tourist trail. You will learn about interesting dishes you have never heard of and taste at least 10 of the city’s best hidden gems. I will delve into the rich history behind these dishes as well as talk about what life is like here in Singapore. Furthermore, we will make a few stops at interesting attractions such as Singapore’s own army market which will give you a deeper insight into our local culture.
