Visitors: Hawker Stand on East Coast
Singapore is known for "hawker stands". They are ALL OVER Singapore! Outdoor vendors are set up and offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner, which include a variety of food (Chinese, Muslim, Indian, Malay). The prices are reasonable (you can eat a meal for as little as $2.50 Sing~~ $1 US) and the food is ready immediately. The girls and Daddy love the food, especially Baby Girl! You can see in the picture she is eating and eating and eating! We were all finished and she just kept eating~she tried food from everyone's plate!! The only thing I will eat at a hawker stand is Singapore's signature dish: Chicken Rice. Eating at a hawker stand is a unique experience in Singapore~it's not the most sanitary experience and napkins are not given with your food order, you have to buy them! There are always lots of Singaporeans eating at hawker stands so sometimes you have to wait for a table. I did learn not sit where I saw a balled up kleenex, because that is how Singaporeans "save a seat"!!
We took ChiChi and TaTi to the hawker stand on the East Coast, at the beach near our house and they enjoyed the food and the experience.
We had such a great time with our visitors and they promised to come back to Singapore again!!
