Singapore : Lau Pa Sat

Built in 1894, Lau Pa Sat is the largest remaining Victorian filigree cast-iron structure in Southeast Asia. Located in the heart of Singapore's business district, the former wet market has been restored and is now a favourite food centre of the locals, offering a wide and affordable variety of local food.
This place was a mere 20-25 mins walk from M Hotel and with the nice sidewalk with ramps, it was not a problem for the stroller.
 
 
It's an open air food court but the architecture of the whole place was really beautiful. They seems to have all kinds of food, from Japanese to western to pastries, which kind of annoyed me a little bit because I cannot make up my mind. That is until I saw ...
 

The watercress soup from this place was my first herbal dish in Singapore and I began to look for herbal dishes in all the food courts that we went throughout the whole trip. I absolutely love herbal dishes and I am so happy this kind of dish was widely available in Singapore.
 
At night, a short stretch of road was closed up and the hawkers set up tables. I heard the satay here are good but we didn't get to try it.
