AS PART of this year's Singapore Food Festival, the Read Bridge at Clarke Quay has been transformed into a food bazaar haven, offering a smorgasboard of local and international delights.
When RazorTV headed down over the weekend, the food street was packed with Singaporeans and tourists as early as 4.30pm.
But most foodies we spoke to were there for one reason - the peranakan food.
As this year's food festival is going big on peranakan culture, it was no surprise that the food street offered an array of peranakan cuisine.
On offer were traditional favourites such as dry laksa, nonya popiah and buah keluak, and peranakan desserts such as kueh salat.
But no local food festival would be complete without the usual local favourites - diners still got to have their satay, chilli crab, rojak and prata.
Well, to find out what else is on offer at the food street and catch a few chefs whip up a few local treats, check out RazorTV's videos!
