Singapore is a country in South East Asia and a major travel destination. It is well connected with major cities in the world and caters to the global community. Hence, at any point of time, there are people from different parts of the world in Singapore. They interact with the locals in search of dishes that appeal to the taste buds. In order to meet this demand, there are hundreds of street food outlets that offer exotic dishes. These could be minced meat noodles or oyster omelet or fried noodles with seafood and eggs.

Minced meat noodles are nothing but a dish of noodles with toppings of minced pork, liver, meat or fish balls, fish cake slices. A vinegar-braised sauce comes along with the dish. Then there is the oyster omelet. The locals love this preparation. These have lots of eggs and a special vinegar chilli – ideal for breakfast. Another attraction for foodies is fried noodles with seafood and egg. It is a combination of fried egg noodles and rice noodles with prawn, fried pork fat, fish cake, and squids.

Foodies build-up tempo to the Durga Pujas


With hardly a few days left for the annual celebrations of Bengalis, the TV channels have begun to give teaser trailers on food joints in the city and how they are readying themselves to pamper to the taste buds of the Bengalis.
The days of Basanta Cabin, Ralli’s and Aminia are now history. There was this snap of Peter Cat a couple days back on a TV channel and then there was Tamarind. Others in the list of favorites are joints like Bhajohari Manna, Mainland China, 6 Chowringhee Place, Aheli – The Peerless Inn, ‘Oh! Calcutta’.
For those who are far away from Kolkata, the brief reports on restaurants that dish out really mouthwatering Bengali dishes is a treat for not just tired eyes but for any eye. The dishes laid out on the table makes one wish that he could have been there physically on the spot to taste the true Bengali cuisines. If wishes were horses …
Usually the menu is attractive to bowl anyone over. There are the near spherical luchis and a mound of rice in the center of the plate surrounded by chholar dal, begun bhaja, fish fry, paturis (steamed fish in plantain leaves), bowls of kasha mangsho, chingri malai curry and some exotic preparation of ilish, Then comes the sweets – not just rosogollahs and sandesh but twist of taste in the form of unheard of combinations to titillate the sweet tooth.
The restaurants usually offer buffets and one can choose what he wants to and enjoy his meal – there is no restriction and it is up to the diner to be aware of his limitations. A word of caution – one has to leave behind at home his worries about calories, cholesterol and the likes – Durga Puja is an annual event. It comes but once a year and must be given its due respect.
