Singapore Favourite Food Village is back with a Teochew theme
And it also features Ming Fa Fishball Noodles from the old Ellenborough Market.
From Jul 24-Aug 2, Singapore Favourite Food Village at Clarke Quay lets you chomp your way through our local hawker heritage. It's not purely an eat-all-you-can event: you can also particiapte in live cooking demonstrations and meet the hawkers behind Ming Fa Fishball Noodles from the old Ellenborough Market formerly located by the Singapore River, which was well-known for stalls selling Teochew food until the early 1970's. We wish they'd rope in a few more of the original hawkers though.
Unlike the last five years, this year's edition comes with a theme which focuses mainly on Teochew dishes. Some highlights to look forward to include a showcase on preparing the Teochew Opera Porridge by celebrity chef Eric Low, a dish which was popular with traveling Teochew Opera performing troupes, and a live traditional Chinese opera performance.
