Modern renditions of local dishes

 

Before classics were classics, someone somewhere experimented, innovated and in due course invented a brand new dish. A dish that people loved so much that it eventually went down in history as a local classic.

 

While classics are classics for a reason, the same innovation and experimentation is encouraged at certain restaurants. We’ve compiled 5 such places below – check them out here.

 

King’s Laksa Steamboat

King’s Laksa Steamboat comprises of a husband and wife team that specialises in, well, laksa steamboat. Diners here can enjoy the delicious coconut and curry broth as they enjoy ingredients like prawn paste chicken, fried tofu with Thai sauce and sliced pork belly. The restaurant can be located along Teck Chye Terrace, just a few short minutes’ walk from Serangoon MRT station.
