About this blog

Singapore
Singapore is a melting pot of cultures from all over the world. This rare mix of 5 million people in an area the size of London, has lead to a vast array of culinary experiences. As a bit of a foodie, I plan on experiencing as much of this as possible! Plus, as a designer I will be capturing any creative or just intriguing products, packaging and retail outlets I see a long my journey. Enjoy.

Peranakan Beef Noodle and Lime Juice


This was my first Peranakan cuisine. Peranakan is the term used for descendants of Chinese immigrants to the Indonesian area in the 15th and 16th Century Colonial era. Locals in Singapore seem to describe Peranakan as a cross between Malay and Chinese. Perankan people were traditionally the middlemen for trades between British and the Chinese, so it seems apt that was taken there by a Chinese friend!

The Beef Noodles were fantastic, the Beef was very tender, slow cooked stewing steak, which I was not expecting.

Add to that 1 Egg! Every local dish has an Egg! Poached this time, for a change.
