One of the joys of travelling is tasting the local street food. I always sample the local cuisine when I travel overseas, but I have to say that those of us who live in Singapore (and other Asian countries too) are spoilt for choice when it comes to street food, much of which will remain undiscovered if you stick to the main attractions.
This is one example of a local place which you would typically never discover as a tourist -- in fact I only discovered it recently myself while wandering through one of the many markets and hawker centres in Singapore.
I have lived in the East Coast area of Singapore all of my life, but I have only recently discovered this gem of a hawker stall in Bedok, just a 10 minute drive from Changi Airport, off the ECP Exit 7B towards Bedok South Avenue 1, and similarly 15 minutes away from the city.
This stall, which serves local "bak chor mee" soup, or minced meat noodles, is deep in the market within an HDB housing estate.
It is not a well known place on the foodie tourist map, like 328 Katong Laksa, or Tian Tian Chicken Rice, or Crawford Street Mee Pok, but it has a very strong following for those in the know, and I would personally vouch for this as one of the most distinctive and tasty noodle dishes you can get in Singapore.
