Tour Gastronomico Originale: Chinatown Hawker Hop

Yesterday I became a tour group of one for my guide Wahida Angel who kindly chose not to cancel due to lack of participants. A winning "the show must go on" attitude prevailed. The tour was the 'Original Food Tour: Chinatown Hawker Hop' which gave you a better understanding of the variety of dishes on offer, their regional origin and an opportunity to taste something new and exotic. If you're a food snob, you can brag that you ate from Michelin rated vendors.... It was a fun day indeed but sadly not all that profitable for Angel. 😞 Thoroughly recommended for all as Angel's presentation style is informative, captivating and far from dry. ...and then at the end of the day, due to the good food and company, I hadn't snapped any food pic. 🥺

Really great tour! Our guide, Angel, was funny, entertaining, and informative. She taught us a lot about the food and culture in Malaysia. We explored a lot of Chinatown and she even took us inside the Temple of the Tooth Relic. We had a lot of different foods and now I know where to go to get the best wan ton, chicken noodles and laksa! It was great fun! I highly recommend it!

I loved this tour. Angel was great. So down-to-earth and really one of the best walking tours I’ve done. Less walking, lots of eating, and so great to have a wonderful local guide like Angel explain all the food and give recommendations. Highly recommend 🤩

This tour is super recommended. Come hungry and willing to try different things. Angel was super professional and great, she answered all of our questions and went the extra mile. Do book this tour when you come to Singapore, you wont regret it!

海外在住経験なしの日本人です。 同じく生粋の日本育ちである、17歳の娘と一緒に参加しました。 シンガポールは2度目ですが、山ほどあるホーカーズのお店の中からどこの何を食べるべきか、観光客に人気のミシュラン掲載店以外のお店が知りたく、参加しました。 説明は英語のみでしたが、Angelは携帯型のマイクとスピーカーを使ってくれたので、離れていても聞きやすかったです。 日本語で行われるプライベートツアーと違い、様々な国の人達と、ひと時の交流を持つことができるのも素晴らしい点のひとつ。英語学習中の娘にも、よい刺激になったようです。 シングリッシュは聞き取りにくい、と言われることもありますが、私がそう感じたのはホーカーズなどごく一部の場所だけでした。 Angelの英語は聞き取りやすく、ゆっくり話してもらうこともできますし、身振り手振りや、google翻訳を使っての理解も可能と思いますので、興味を感じられたらぜひトライください。 単なる美味しい店の紹介だけではなく、知らない場所で飲む。お店の選び方や、ポーパーズが赤える問題までできることができ、とても有益な時間でした。
