Rojak

HELLO! SINGAPORE TOURS GUIDE TO THE BEST SINGAPORE LOCAL FOOD

The key to this unique Asian salad lies in its dark, sticky sauce—made up of fermented prawn paste, sugar, lime and chilli paste—which explains its sweet yet savoury taste. With a name that means ‘eclectic mix’ in colloquial Malay, rojak is made up of a variety of ingredients and textures. It has fresh cucumber, pineapple, tofu puff and you tiao (dough fritters) tossed in prawn paste and tamarind sauce, and garnished with chopped peanuts.

This dish is typically sold by Chinese hawkers at food centres. Some hotels also offer this at buffets where visitors can have a hand at creating their own version of rojak by mixing the sauce in a large bowl, before tossing in all the other ingredients. From S$3 per serving.

Maxwell Food Centre

What was once a wet market in the 1950s has become the popular Maxwell Food Centre today. One of its biggest draws is Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice (#01-10/11)—whose world-famous chicken rice beat chef Gordon Ramsay’s version in the Hawker Heroes Challenge. Also popular is the crispy, deep-fried oyster cake snack at Maxwell Fuzhou Oyster Cake (#01-05) that has become a rare speciality. Another highlight is Zhen Zhen Porridge (#01-54) for its comforting bowls of thick porridge cooked with chicken or fish. The stall closes after selling out so be sure to get there early before it’s all wiped out.
