Country Review’s Delicious Foods to Try in Singapore
Country Review’s First on the list: The Chili Crab
Food at home not spicy enough for you? The Chili Crab
combines a savory sweetness with a hint of spiciness, meaning that the Chili
Crab would absorb the smell and taste of the 2 great flavors together. The
Chili Crab is placed into a big plate where the sauce surrounds the succulent
crab. The sweet and spicy sauce is used by restaurants for a side dish. The
fried buns (or mantou, as the Chinese says it) would be used to scoop up the
remaining sauce to indulge in.
Country Reviews’ Second on the list: The Satay
If you are a fan of skewered meats, then you are in
luck. Singapore sells a unique local brand of skewered meat, where the meats
(beef, chicken, mutton) are place precariously on a wooden stick and be cooked
on a charcoal stove. You can then dip the bumptious satay into the stall’s own
spicy peanut sauce. If you are still hungry, then try the Satays with the
ketupats (rice cakes). The aromatic smell of the Satay would certainly attract
the envy of your peers.
Country Reviews’ Third on the list: Durians
In Country Reviews, we delight in delicious foods.
However, this last one is quite akin of a misnomer. Durians, a strange fruit,
is armed to the tooth with green spikes on the outside but is filled with
aromatic yellow meats on the inside. When Country Reviews believe it is
aromatic, trust me, it is either pungent or tasty. There are some who dislike
the strong taste of the durian, others adored it a lot. So if you are not
afraid of a gamble, then try the durian. However, be warned that you cannot
bring durians into the trains in Singapore; they are banned for the strong
smell that they possess.
Country Review’s Hotels which are great in Singapore
Country Review’s First on the list: Marina Bay Sands
The Marina Bay Sands is an integrated resort, equipped

hotel and the service in the hotel is fast and prompt. If you are bored, Marina

Country Review’s Second on the list: Pan Pacific Singapore
The Pan Pacific Singapore is located in the strategic
heart of Singapore’s shopping and business sector. Nearby would be the Suntec
City and Convention Halls, where it hosts various expo sales and talks and
seminars. If the shopaholic in you is dying to get out, various other shopping centers

offers tons of dining experience with the food there impeccable and the room

Country Review’s Third on the list: Raffles Hotel Singapore
Named after the great Sir Stamford Raffles who founded
modern Singapore, the Raffles Hotel Singapore promises much in terms of quality
of service and locality. The Raffles Hotel is a great 5 star hotel, with plenty
of shopping centers surrounding it. If you indulge in alcoholic drink or just
want to try the country’s local cocktail, then perhaps you might be interested
in the Singapore Sling, developed by a Bartender working in the Raffles Hotel
Singapore. The recipe in Raffles Hotel is original and the other ones outside
of it are not so authentic. There are also 14 restaurants residing in Raffles
Hotel Singapore, with the Bar and Billiard Room being one of my favorite haunts
whenever I visit Singapore.
You can contact Raffles Hotel Singapore at 1800 768
9009.
