Amazing Local Foods X'tra!

Somewhere in Joo Chiat, lies this small corner which sells the most unconventional baos - BaoCult. 

We purchased one of its signature bao - Salmon Cream Cheese Bao. It is cream cheese slathered on real salmon bites. Creamy, luxurious and simply divine :)

After a savoury bao, it's time for a sweet bao - The Melting Gold Bun. It has molten custard oozing with a hint of salted egg yolk. A perfect balance between sweet and salty.

When in Katong, eat Katong Laksa! This is a Singaporean delicacy which requires you to soup up the entire bowl just using your spoon. This is cos the noodles have been cut to fine pieces which you can scoop easily. I love the generous portions of hums! If you ask me, i prefer the Holland Village branch. But in Katong, you get to see tourists from every single country imaginable enjoying this bowl.

One of the Food Race challenge was to have Fermented Beancurd in Geylang.

It smelt so awful i almost passed out.

Nearby in Geylang, we also headed to Yong He selling dough sticks and bean curd.

It is a perfect combination, these two...akin to the Western peanut butter and jelly. One goes in hand with another. This shop makes quality bean curd and dough stick. Come here for a good supper!
