SINGAPORE

Feast Hainanese Chicken Rice and Laksa Chips

Hainanese Chicken Rice and Laksa Chips, Feast, SGD5.9, + Add To Wishlist: Feast is combining Singapore’s two most popular local dishes with potato chips, hereby giving us the most savoury (and unique, no doubt) flavours — that is Hainanese Chicken Rice and Laksa.

And we guarantee you that you’d get why after a bite.

Pandan Chiffon Tea

No. 825, Pandan Chiffon, Ette Company, SGD8,  + Add To Wishlist: What do you get when you combine a local favourite dessert cake and tea? Pandan Chiffon tea, that’s what. This is a blend of roasted green tea, pandan leaves, osmanthus blossoms and cinnamon — and reduced in caffeine so you can take it on its own. Also recommended to drink without sugar to get a dose of its flavour.

 

Salted Egg Aioli

MALAYSIA

Penang White Curry Noodles

Penang White Curry Noodles, MyKuali, MYR13,  + Add To Wishlist: If you like a spicy kick to your noodles (or meals in general), try out MyKuali’s Penang White Curry Noodles. Similar to the chili crab version from Singapore, this one packs a punch with its seriously hot sambal and coconut milk.

 

3-In-1 White Coffee

3-In-1 White Coffee, Chek Hup, MYR13,  + Add To Wishlist: Nothing beats a hot cuppa joe in the morning, and especially if you’ve got a cup of steaming hot white coffee. The original white coffee originated from a small town called Ipoh, and is actually a drink made from coffee beans roasted in margarine, ground, brewed and served with sweetened condensed milk. Think frothy, comforting coffee that isn’t overly sweet or milky.

 

Durian Dodol

Durian Dodol, Tan Kim Hock, MYR9.4,  + Add To Wishlist: Did you know that this durian confection has been enjoyed by Malaysia locals for centuries? A sweet toffee-like sugar palm-based treat that is infused with durian, this brand’s version is likely the best in town for its fragrant aroma of gula melaka and smooth texture.

 

Bacon Jam with Rum

Bacon Jam with Rum, Five And Two Foods, MYR23,  + Add To Wishlist: Bacon is awesome on its on, but have you ever felt the need to eat bacon with everything? Five and Two Foods has an assortment of homemade bacon jams that are irresistible to the bacon connoisseur, and this one has a dash of rum that would go perfectly well as a dip, spread or cooking sauce.
