If you haven’t already guessed from my title, I am slightly OBSESSED with the food back home in Singapore. Saying that it is amazing is an understatement. Whatever cuisine you like, I can assure you, you will find it here and the quality would be great!
Chinese, Thai, Malay, Indian and Western are just some of the amazing cuisines that are offered predominantly in many of the eating areas.
If you are coming to Singapore, no doubt about it you HAVE to try the local food. There are many places where you can find this but personally I think the food courts have the best tasting local food! I would recommend ION and Somerset which offer a wide variety of affordable high quality food. Some of my favourite must try dishes are the kway teow, mee goring, hor fun, hokkien mee, laksa (I could go on forever but trust me you definitely want to try these few! They are so so so good!) I kid you not but when I Skype my parents EVERY conversation we have we spend at least 15 minutes talking about all the places I need to go and eat at!
If you like hot, fiery, spicy food you definitely want to indulge in some Thai or Indian food. You have no idea how much I miss spice in my food, it is very rare that the food that we get here is spicy! Lemon grass, Thai Express, Rang Mahal and Maharajah are some good restaurants you might want to try if you want to excite your taste buds!
Want to go all out and splurge on a meal? There are some very high end restaurants at Marina Bay sands. A famous one is CUT with celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck another great dining experience is at Ku De Ta situated on a skypark on the 57th floor. Not only is the food amazing the scenery is breathtakingly beautiful! Be warned that these experiences might just burn a hole in your wallets!

No matter what your tastes or budget, I assure you when it comes to food you have absolutely nothing to worry about when you are here on holiday! The only thing that you should worry about is missing it once you leave!
