Eating out in Singapore isn't complete without a visit to a hawker centre - a collection of individual stalls selling food at very reasonable prices, in an open-air arrangement. Hawker centres are such a common sight in Singapore, and indeed, it is the best way to sample some of Singapore's best local cuisine.

“Locals and visitors alike take advantage of these concentrated spots, where seemingly hundreds of stalls and booths prepare a staggering variety of food, all under stringent health inspection. Here among the din of clanging trays, the shouted orders, the tropical heat, and the smells of fermented fish paste, ginger, and curry is a gastronomic and cultural experience that can be experienced only in Singapore. Malaysian, Indonesian, Indian and Chinese cuisine are re-blended into Pacific Rim fusions at its most glorious. Even Hong Kong runs a distant second.” - 1000 places to see before you die – A traveller’s Life list by Patricia Schultz.
