9 Best Local Eats in Singapore | Condé Nast Traveler

"This two-unit shophouse along the historical Katong stretch is a veritable Peranakan heritage center. Downstairs is a restaurant serving traditional Nonya dishes—and there are better places to sample Nonya food, sweets and pastries (like at Glory Catering a few doors down), but Kim Choo's Nonya kueh zhang (rice dumplings) are the best in town. They're triangular-shaped glutinous rice dumplings tinged a lovely shade of blue with butterfly pea flowers; stuffed with a filling of minced pork, mushrooms, and candied winter melon stewed in dark soy sauce; and wrapped in bamboo leaves that lend the dumplings a distinct fragrance. This is where to go for the best of them." - Annette Tan
