Spice, silk and stories in Little India
Local tour guide in Singapore, Singapore.
My parents ran a spice shop on Buffalo Road for thirty years, so Little India's scents are the smell of my childhood. I trained as a chef before coming home to guide, and I still grind my own masalas every week. On my walks we touch, smell, and taste everything: curry leaves, jasmine garlands, banana leaf lunches. I want you to leave understanding why this district feeds both stomach and soul.
Wander the most sensory district in Singapore with a chef who grew up here. We smell our way through a real spice shop, watch garland makers at work, step inside a bustling Hindu temple, browse Tekka Market, and sit down to a proper banana leaf lunch eaten the traditional way, with your hands if you dare.
