| What to eat in Singapore |

| Chilli Crab |
 Chilli Crab is a Singaproean favourite – you just need to watch the locals eat it to realise how much of a favourite! Crabs are cooked with a tomato and chilli base, and soaked with gravy. Order some bread with it to eat the leftover gravy.

| Hainanese Chicken Rice |
 Probably the most widely eaten food in Singapore is Hainanese Chicken Rice. A chicken is cooked and sliced up then served with rice and vegetables. Try it with some chilli sauce if you want it the authentic Singaporean way.
