Treating the Tastebuds at Jalan Makanan

Then Joaquin treated Chichay with street food after a day of painting at Marina Barrage.  And where else did they eat in SG than the country’s most abundant food lane, the Jalan Makanan!

Makan in Singapore means eat.  Jalan on the other hand means street.  Therefore, Jalan Makanan literally means a street of eating places.

Yeah, right!  In only one street, you can find almost all of the elements of the Chinese cuisine.  As the food street is located in Chinatown, well that obviously suggests what they serve in there!  Hawkers (the food stalls as they’re called) are just around everywhere that have unique specialties at very cheap prices.
