Lau Pa Sat
Lau Pa Sat, or "Old Market" in the Hokkien dialect, used to be a wet market over 150 years ago during the times of Sir Stamford Raffles, the founder of Singapore. It has now been converted into a permanent food center; a famous gourmet paradise offering a large selection of local delicacies while retaining its classic charm.
Make a beeline for some of Singapore's popular dishes such as chili and black pepper crabs, fried carrot cake, fried kway teow, and rojak — a traditional fruit and vegetable salad dish. Watch as the street transforms as night falls — lined with rows of satay stalls, serving up succulent and juicy Satay (skewered grilled meat).

With wide, spacious seating and a seemingly endless selection of stalls from local to regional and international food, you’d be spoilt for choice!
