As if the island's buffet line of exotic food isn't
enough, there's the annual Singapore Food Festival (28
March to 30 April 2003). Something to satisfy everyone's
craving will be offered by local as well as international
cuisine.
Other highlights of the Singapore Food Festival are
food tours, demonstrations and classes conducted by
world-renowned chefs and joint food-oriented promotions
with major hotels and
shopping centres. Keep an eye out
for them!
Another fun way to explore and discover the variety of
cuisine available in Singapore is to take a food tour. Try
the 'Flavours of New Asia - Singapore' Tour that
begins at the Spice Garden (the original site of the first
Botanic Gardens) and proceeds to sample spicy Indian
cuisine and Peranakan fare. All while visiting ethnic
areas like Little India and Chinatown as a bonus.
For more information, check with your hotel concierge.
Learn to whip up a storm and impress everyone back home.
