Since “Big India” (i.e. the real India!) is presently off-limits, we recently devised a DIY tour of Singapore’s Little India. Armed with numerous local food recommendations from work colleagues, we started with a selection of dishes from the Tekka Hawker Centre. Our table was soon heaving with Indian delights: biryani, onion rava dosa, masala thosai, prawn vadai, tandoor chicken and Indian rojak.
After such a feast, we needed to walk off the wellspent calories with some retail therapy. On the second level of Tekka is an explosion of colour – an Aladdin’s cave of every Indian fashion. There’s something for everyone and every occasion, from outfits for children to beautiful wedding garments and everyday saris.
