Meng Kee Fried Kway Teow

A plate of Meng Kee char kway teow is an excellent way to experience the true taste of Singapore. The noodles here are moist, savoury-salty, spicy, sweet, and loaded with other delightful ingredients. I was in heaven after my first bite. This Singapore street food is so delicious that I could eat it every day!

The char kway teow at Meng Kee has a strong smell of 'wok hei' and is cooked just right - not too dry, not too soggy - and with generous amounts of cockles and beansprouts. Whether you choose to eat kway teow as a side or a main dish, Meng Kee's char kway teow is one of the best street foods in Singapore. The authentic version of this dish costs about $3 per plate, and is available Monday to Saturday from 9am to 6pm.
Nasi Lemak

Although this Malaysian food is not the only famous one, Singapore is also home to a variety of other local specialties. Nasi lemak is served with a spicy peanut sauce and a side of chicken, mutton, or fish. It is traditionally eaten for breakfast, but is also a popular food in many other Southeast Asian countries. Although this dish is primarily a street food, it can also be found in fine dining restaurants, especially in the city-state of Kuala Lumpur.

The humble stall on Adam Road offers a delicious meal that includes fluffy coconut rice, fried egg, chicken wing, and ikan kuning. It is served at a low price and comes with a variety of sides. The menu is topped with chicken wing, fried egg, sambal chilli, peanuts, and smoked otah.
Goreng Pisang

The most popular food sold on the streets of Singapore is Goreng Pisang, a type of deep-fried snack made with ripe bananas that are deep-fried to a golden brown perfection. A must-try in Singapore, this popular snack is often referred to as the "national snack".

Located near the library, Lim Kee's Pisang Goreng is a delight. Deep-fried to a golden brown, it's made from a banana covered in batter. It's especially good when drizzled with honey. The simple yet delicious treat is healthy thanks to the banana and sesame seeds, but be careful when ordering, as some shops serve large portions of this street food.
Hainanese chicken

Singapore has a diverse range of street foods. The island nation's cuisine combines influences from Malaysia, China, and India, and reflects its rich history. Visiting Singapore's diverse neighborhoods will help you experience the diversity of the island's cuisine. Whether you're looking to eat local delicacies or splurge on an international driving holiday, street food is sure to please.

For an authentic taste of Hainanese chicken, look for chicken that is juicy and contains a layer of jelly-like fat underneath the skin. Hainanese chicken is cooked in boiling water and then plunged into ice bath, locking in the flavour and preserving the tender skin. Once cooked, the chicken is then cut into bite-sized strips and dried on racks. It is sold at local food stalls throughout Singapore, where you can find it for a fraction of its price.
Carrot cake

For those of you who've never had a carrot cake, here are some things you need to know about this popular street food. First, there's the classic version, accompanied by a dish of black and white kway. The cake itself is a fluffy, moist dessert, with a rich sweet and sour eggy flavour. Then there's the version that combines black and white carrots, a combination that is sure to delight any foodie.

It's easy to spot a stall selling Carrot Cake in Singapore. It's easy to spot as it is named Carrot Cake Cai Tou Guo, located on the right side of the entrance. For $3, you can order a slice of fried carrot cake, topped with a prawn. The cake is soft and moist, and is covered with a dark, sweet sauce. You'll be pleased with the seasoning, and the long queues indicate that the stall is worth visiting.
