11 Singaporean Foods Not to Miss While in Singapore - AFAR

"At the one-Michelin-star Candlenut, Peranakan tradition is elevated through creative use of buah keluak—Chef Malcolm Lee selects nuts with meaty, earthy, chocolatey notes, soaks them for a week, blends the flesh into a rempah to make a thick gravy, adds free-range Borrowdale pork and simmers for 90 minutes until the pork falls off the bone in the standout babi buah keluak (S$36); Lee also experiments with the paste in items like ice cream and even a secret staff burger." - Charlene Fang
