Tak Po

Famous in Chinatown for Hong Kong Dim Sum & Congee

This is where we had lunch on our first day. We had Har Gao, Prawn & Mushroom Dumpling, Chicken Rice, and Crispy Yam Dumpling. It was over-all a pleasant experience. Great food and at a reasonable price.

This Crispy Yam Dumpling is delicious.

Lau Pa Sat Festival Market

Before heading to the Merlion Park, we decided to grab some snacks here. It's a Hawker style place where the best laksa in town can be found. We had some fantastic egg tart from the store in the middle (too bad I didn't get the name) and some fresh pineapple juice (freshly squeezed pineapple with ice). It's not the best combination, but the egg tart is spot on.

Maxwell Food Center

I had three meals in this hawker place: Japanese (some gyoza and onion pancakes), Thai (Pad Thai), and Chinese/Singaporean (Hainanese Chicken). I was able to try the Hainanese Chicken from Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken, and I must say it was delicious! Juicy, soft, and spot on!

Tekka Centre

I love Indian food! That's why we had our lunch in the Tekka Centre. It's a hawker-style place with lots of Indian food choices. I couldn't even decide what I want at the beginning but end up with the most amazing Naan Bread I have tasted with matching Chicken Curry. It was spot on. My boyfriend ordered a random drink called Chendol, which is refreshing.

People's Park Food Centre

We had some lemon chicken (which is pretty lame), laksa, and grilled chicken. The Singaporean Laksa was spicy by default (since I love spicy, I fell in love with it instantly!) Also, visit Bee Kim Heng because they sell the most delicious jerky ever.
