Food & Eating Guide
Singapore is a gourmet’s paradise ranging from street stalls to exquisite 5-star restaurants. There are over 30 different cooking styles including Chinese, French, Malay, Japanese, Indian, American, Indonesian and Swiss. National specialties include Beef rending, Chilli crab, Gado gado, Satay and Char Kway Teow. National drinks include Singapore Sling, Teh arak tarik, Soya bean milk, Sugar cane juice and Tiger Beer with the legal age of drinking being 18.
Most foods are eaten with a fork and spoon with chopsticks being used for most Chinese dishes. The best way to eat in Singapore is in the open at one of the many street food stalls. There are both self-service establishments together with waiter service in most restaurants and bars offering table and counter service. There are no licensing hours.
Alcohol is widely available but is very expensive due to Singapore’s heavy sin taxes. Prices when eating out vary but drinking at bars will be very costly so keep an eye out for happy hours and two-for-one promotions. Most restaurants in Singapore are BYO with the cheaper ones not even charging corkage but be aware that you may have to bring your own bottle opener and glasses.
