Get chomping in Singapore

Food lovers looking for the perfect holiday might want to step on a flight to Singapore and check out the Singapore Food Festival this summer.

This mammoth event takes place between June 29th and July 31st and showcases the very best food and drink that the country has to offer through contests, tasting sessions, full-blown banquets, conferences and much more.

Visitors to Singapore get to experience the many different facets of Singaporean cuisine, ranging from top class gourmet meals to everyday snacks and treats sold by street markets.

It's not all about the food, however; entertainment is provided in the way of concerts, fashion shows and activities for all the family, offering alternative attractions for those who manage to sample a little too much of the free-flowing dishes and beverages.

With participating restaurants, bars and cafes offering a host of special discounts and themed nights throughout the festival, this event is an ideal way of both expanding your culinary horizons and having a refreshingly unique summer holiday.
