Explore off-the-beaten-path, find hidden gems and meet the locals! This tour is designed to bring out the stories, passion, and grit of our local hawker heroes. You will have the opportunity to go behind the scenes and hear the fascinating stories of our hawkers. You will gain a deeper appreciation of the grit and sweat that your hosts put in to deliver the everyday dishes we all enjoy. This experience is part of STEP, a selection of walking tours designed to help you discover a destination in-depth.

Through this tour we bring you up, close and personal with the last of our hawkers making these traditional dishes. Learn why a snack is named ‘kill the riding horse’, or the origins of a ‘pig ear biscuit’. Sample the Asian version of a granola bar, and French fries, together with other delicious local foods!
